    The bolt on our 2014 mustang's steering column (inside by the fire wall) came loose and fell out causing the steering wheel to spin freely. Fortunately this happened in a parking lot where the car could coast into a parking space and not at highway speeds. The car was towed to the local ford dealer where they are replacing the bolt.

    Tamara recall, the traction light come on and off the power steering failure light come on and makes a screeching noise, and the power steering gets extremely stiff in turns like it's about to lock up. The car only has 44,000 miles. All this happened while on a city street when turning. It's the electric power steering/ rack and pinion. There are a lot of post on youtube as well.
