What owners wrote
Car was idling in park. Push button start/stop was pushed to shut off engine and at that instant, car was released from park, rolled backwards into tree, injuring right front passenger. No one in driver's seat.
The steering on our 2015 ford taurus has been disengaging while the car is being driven. First we get a message that the steering needs to be serviced. Next, another message flashed, the car jerks and the power steering disengages making it extremely difficult to control the car.
