Recall notice 19s41. Received notification on 5/2/2020 that parts are available. Contacted local dealership, felix sabates Lincoln, on 5/5/2020 to schedule recall. Was told at the time, they had to order the part for recall and it will be approximately 2-3 weeks. On 6/2/2020, I made another call asking for update on recall parts. Was told that part has not arrived and it will be another 2 weeks. Called again on 6/15/2020 for update. Again was told still waiting on parts. Maybe another 2 weeks. Called again on 7/1/2020 and was told parts still have not arrived. The gave the reasoning as covid-19 as the problem for delay in receiving parts.

9 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 01/02/2019

The car shuts off without warning when you are driving. It has happened 6 times in the last 3 months. The power steering shuts off and the car comes to a complete stop before you are able to try to restart the car. This is a very serious safety issue when this happens on a busy highway and you are in the fast lane or making a left turn across oncoming traffic. I took the car to a local dealer (jerry's Ford of leesburg va) and it is not showing any maintenance codes for the issue and they said there is nothing they can do. I spoke to Ford (case# cas-17221031-z4l4r3) and they said to drive the car until the issue happens again and have it towed back to the dealer as restarting the car will clear the maintenance code. I told Ford this was unacceptable due to this being a very serious safety issue and I didn't think it was a good idea to put someone's life at risk to trouble shoot the problem with the car. Ford has no other options at this time. From research I have done online I can see other people have had this same exact issue. Nhtsa id numbers 11047965 and 11055106 seem to be the same issue.
