Ford is recalling almost 423,000 cars and SUVs because the power steering can fail while being driven. The recall covers 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS and MKT; 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ and 2011 Mercury Milans.
The defect is that an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to stop which sends the steering into manual mode, making the vehicles harder to control.
