1 Power Steering Failed problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2018

On 12/10/2018 at 5 pm I made a right turn to merge into traffic when my power steering failed mid turn. Shocked and surprised at to what was happening, I veered into the on coming traffic not being able to keep the vehicle in the proper lane because of the amount of effort required to steer. I missed having an accident by inches and cut off a driver whom got angry with me and I thought might follow me home. I was in rush hour traffic and was not able to stop the car and restart it for several blocks. When I was able to pull over and stop, I restarted the car and the power steering returned as normal. On the my Lincoln owner website, it reported my car needing a power steering update. On 2 separate occasions during the past year when I had my car in to the Lincoln dealer for other services, I reported this to the dealer. He looked something up on his computer and reported my car was ok, ignore the message.
