I went in to the parking lot of the vince lombardi service station turned the car off when i went in on the way out turn the car on and i couldnt move the steering unless i really used force so if this was to happen to me while driving it would have been bad called ford they say for my vin number it does not have a recall for that however diring research i saw other mariners have a 14s05 recall which reflects pretty much what happened to me

While driving vehicle brakes all of sudden go to the floor, no pedal response. This has happened a couple of times without warning. Once when I was approaching an intersection and light changed. My brakes all of the sudden went to the floor and I had to downshift and cut my wheels toward the curb to stop from crashing. Then a couple days later attempting to get it to mechanic it was fine and pumped properly. I wrote it off as a fluke. Then a few months later it happened again. My mechanic can't seem to find the issue and has charged me for new brakes, new master cylinder, new brake line, and another part for the abs power assistant. My car still continues to have this brake malfunction on and off. Somebody is going to end up getting hurt. This obviously is some kind of part defect. Please help!

THE POWER STEERING ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON AND I KEPT LOSING MY POWER STEERING. I COULD TURN THE CAR OFF THEN BACK ON AND IT WOULD WORK AGAIN AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WENT OUT AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF A CURVE AND WINT COME BACK ON.
