Rear tail light side parking marker. All marker lights in working order is required to pass Delaware state inspection. The LED is hard wired within the housing unit and is not a replaceable bulb. I have to replace the housing assembly for 160.00 plus tax for a simple light. Car is 10 years old. I don't believe Ford expected it to fail for the life of the car. Part 13404. The side marker light is not on the parts diagram. I can replace the part but was hoping Ford would cover the bill, but I admit, i am venting frustration.

Power steering went out randomly. I have tried to reset by turning vehicle on and off. There is a recall for the 2012 Ford Fusion...however my vehicle is not included for some reason is having exact same issue as recall for steering dating back to 2015. Took to dealer. They said my power steering was out and would be over 3,000$ to fix.

Dealership said they reset power steering, it had a recall on it and now my power steering is completely out and they refuse to fix it for free when it is a recalled part. Obviously it wasn’t fixed.
