Power Steering Failed problems of the 2010 Lincoln MKS

I started my car and the error "power steering failure" came on, I was completely unable to turn the steering wheel. I turned the vehicle off and back on and it happened again. There was no warning and I can't turn it at all. I can't imagine what would have happened if I were driving it! this is a known issue and if the 2011's were recalled, and it is happening to this many people with a 2010, maybe they should do a recall on it as well!.

The electrical power assisted steering failed again without warning. When this unit ceases operation, it also affects the vehicle power train by shutting down the traction control and the anti lock braking, it seems. When the electrical assist stop working, the vehicle is extremely difficult to control as it takes all the effort a person can muster to turn the steering wheel. This is a very bad steering system.

The power steering intermittently fails upon starting the vehicle, or twice while driving. Both times driving, I was traveling about 40 mph on a rural street, and was able to pull directly into a parking lot that was parallel to the road which required little steering. If you shut the vehicle off, and restart the car, it usually resets itself. Please be advised that when the power assist stops working, it takes extreme strength to maneuver the vehicle. I have a 1965 mustang without power steering. There is no comparison between both vehicles, the Lincoln does not steer without pulling with both hands in one direction on the steering wheel.
