2016 Ford Escape Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

JAN. 24, 2019 POWER STEERING ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON HAD NO POWER STEERING. CONTACTED LANGLADE FORD IN ANTIGO, WI TOOK IT THERE THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO REPLACE THE EPAS COMPLETE SYSTEM AND IT WAS DONE ON FEB. 1, 2019 AT COST OF $1683.41 AS MY 3 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I WROTE TO FORD IN DEARBORN, MI ABOUT IT, AND RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THEM ON MAR. 8, 2019 THEY STATED "COMMENTS WERE RECEIVED, DOCUMENTED AND SENT TO THEIR APPROPRIATE DEPARTMENT". THEY NEED TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS AS IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT AT ALL WITH NO POWER STEERING I AM FORTUNATE IT DID NOT LOCK UP ON ME. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SUBMIT THIS, I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT'S HAD THIS PROBLEM.

I WAS CRUISING AT ABOUT 35-40MPH ON CITY STREET. SUDDENLY THE MOTOR PRACTICALLY QUIT. THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 5 MPH. THE "STABILITY CONTROL" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. LUCKILY, THERE WERE NO VEHICLES BEHIND ME ON THAT 9:20 PM SUNDAY 7/24. THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED AFTER DOING WHAT THE MANUAL ADVISED: TURN OFF THE MOTOR, RESTART (AFTER A FEW MINUTE AT LEAST, I FOUND OUT). THE NEXT MORNING AND AFTER STARTING THE MOTOR, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD FORD DEALERSHIP CHECK THE VEHICLE THAT MORNING.
