EPAS

[PEAKEY]

My Vignale has suddenly (at 11k ) developed a horrendous screech which I initially thought was something trapped in a disc. All calipers were however cool, and I have concluded that it is the fist sign of EPAS failure - which has been a major problem with many models of car and truck - in fact leading to Ford being sued in USA.

Fortunately under warranty since there are no serviceable parts - including Control modules and sensors - which means a complete replacement unit (VERY expensive ).

HAVE YOU SEEN SIMILAR PROBLEMS  ANYONE ..?

Screechy ps that uses hydraulics is usually caused by low fluid level or air in fluid. Not sure if your system is fully electric or electro hydraulic. 

If it has ps fluid check that first.
