1 Electric Power Assist Steering System problem

Failure Date: 06/21/2021

I was backing up into a driveway (very slight incline) when my power steering went out. Lights came on stating, "steering assist fault, service required" and "service advanced trac. " I could barely turn my wheel. There was no earlier warning of this issue and I had just driven 3 hours on the highway so was fortunate that it didn't fail while on the road. I tried restarting my car a few times and then I called a Ford dealer. The car was towed in for a diagnostic. This revealed that the epas rack failed and needed to be replaced with an estimate of over $3000. The purpose of epas is to enhance the steering ability for the driver, but the car is not steerable without its proper functioning which is a huge safety hazard to the driver and anyone else near them on the road.
