This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: The NHTSA's complaint data shows potentially scary power steering problems with the 2011 Ford Explorer.
The steering complaints are pretty serious - owners report the power steering cuts out while driving. The NHTSA opened an investigation into the power steering problems in June 2012, which lead to a recall in 2014. However years later, many 2011 Explorer owners report this defect is still occurring.
It's too bad because the 2009 & 2010 Ford Explorer are solid, trouble-free model years.

When I took my 2011 Ford Explorer to ford's dealer for engine light on they stated that I needed a Cat. Converter, Tuneup, Coil Boots and Intake Gasket. I declined at the time for them to fix it because it was in other problems included.
