What 2014 Ford Taurus Police Interceptor owners say
Steering
On the way home after being on duty, a warning light came on that read "service advancetrak low". I reset the message and it appeared again. I deactivated the traction control and it appeared to be fine, prior to that the steering was very unresponsive and appeared to be sluggish. The following afternoon I go to get in car and message came ion dash stating "steering failure" and steering wheel would not move. The car is being towed on Monday October 29 to closest Ford dealer. I have been researching this problem with same model and year, and there are numerous issues the same as our Police car. Even though this is a Police car, we are a small town and there is little to no aggressive driving.
My car's power steering suddenly developed a fault, showing message on dash "stop safely now" along with a simultaneous message about servicing advancetrac. Steering became very difficult. Steering still worked, but car became very hard to turn (I am not a small man, and it was still difficult). I was able to pull to the side of the road (I was on a large city street traveling about 45 MPH) and stop with some difficulty. Power steering seems to have completely failed spontaneously.
