2005 Ford Escape Hybrid : electric power steering. Power steering failed, while in a turn twice. And came within inches of hitting a wall, because it reverted to manual steering. If not for quick thinking and reflex's. I was a passenger and grabbed the wheel and wrestled it in the turn to avoid the wall. Took it to the dealer and they acted like it was a no big deal.
