Steering Assist Fault - Service required

[RJV15]

Anyone run into this issue?
Started fine in the morning, stopped to get coffee , turned the car back on and was greeted with that warning.
Car drove fine, no issues, no limp node, error hasn't came back.

Interestingly enough, the car did not start in quiet mode that time eventho it was during the time frame where its supposed to.


Running coil overs and wheels.

I think you kind of answered your question with the last sentence.

Mods + sensor driven systems = unpredictable errors

drove to town (13 miles oneway 50/50 highway/town). Ate lunch, upon startup to leave we got the ‘steering assist’ fault and then the ‘what’s new’ update message (now on 6.3.2 - confirmed also got the classic gauge). Seems my garage is as good as a faraday cage. Tucked away in the garage works for fordpass status but for some reason we’ve only received updates after being out and about. Couldn’t change drive mode using the steering wheel (steering status was just - -). Got through town found a secluded spot (off the side of a side road - didn’t want to be the traffic jam, in case), did a quick restart and no errors and drive/steering modes returned. Dash was reporting 14.5 volts before we pulled over and restarted, tbh i forgot to look when we got going again. The rest if the return trip was error/incident free.
