Driving at highway speeds the steering wont respond wants to drift into other lanes of traffic. The steering gets loose and tight and when you try to correct for lane drift it takes a second for the steering to respond, this is very dangerous and I called Ford and of course they wont do nothing or help in anyway. Car only has 42,000 miles on it and of course its not covered but they can fix it for $2000. 00. First transmission problems now this.
