Ford Motor Company is recalling 1,902 of its 2023-2024 Transit vehicles equipped with the Transit Trail package. A grounding connection in the electronic power assist steering (EPAS) system can corrode, potentially leading to a sudden loss of power steering assist. Owners can have the issue fixed for free by visiting a Ford dealer, who will install a new steering ground pigtail kit.
A loss of power steering assist makes the vehicle significantly harder to steer, especially at lower speeds, which increases the physical effort required by the driver and raises the risk of a crash.
