2014 JEEP CHEROKEE with 86000.0 miles

Driving the car the engine light and traction light would come on and the steering wheel would lock in position, moving straight or turning. Happened several times between servicing. Several codes came up and were addressed but did not fix the problem. Codes were U0131, U0418, U0131-87, U0415 and U0428. No issue until car was serviced for the latest recall. Car with dealer. Say it's a complete electrical system repair. Not once have i had an issue with my car in 4yrs until dealer serviced it for steering wheel recall.

2012 MAZDA MAZDA3 with 16090.0 miles

My wife was driving on the freeway - i was on the passenger side. This is the first time it happened. The car lost sort of reset itself - dash warning lights came on (according to my wife). Radio/cd stopped music - abs light went on (that's all i can see from passenger side). My wife said others too but she was focused on the road because it was a construction zone. She was nervous and said the car was not responding to throttle. Luckily all went back to normal after 2 or maybe 3 seconds. The music came back on also. No check engine light or any sign of trouble. We pulled over and i checked the front to see if we hit something that could have caused it. Restarted the car - all seemed normal and reached our destination. This was our first 200 mile trip or more on this car. 1 day after arrival - i did a once over safety check (fluids, tire pressure, etc) nothing out of the ordinary. Got my obd2 code reader and it had the following U3003 U0140 U0428. So i will take this to our dealer for checkup.

2012 FORD F-150 with 42830.0 miles

Back out of garage turned steering wheel to left; put in drive pulled ahead , advance track light came on and service advance light also came on . If you don't reset light the signal lights don't work unless you hold the lever up or down it bring codes up C1B00 and U0428-20 andU2101 which dealer says steering sensor is bad but not serviceable so you need new electric steering rack. This is on a 2012 f150xlt and there is no recall but i think this is a safety issue, also i think it is a power train issue.

2012 FORD F-150 with 105000. miles

Adv track service light, code U0428. Dealer says can't replace sensor, need to replace with sensor & rack $1500 to $2000. Come on Ford, if they won't replace original components, and have to buy redesigned system ... Doesn't that tell you the original design was messed up?
