2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

I WAS DRIVING AROUND 30-40 MPH ON CITY STREETS WHEN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND THE "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" LIGHT CAME ON. STEERING THE CAR BECAME VERY DIFFICULT AT THAT TIME AND I HAD TO PULL INTO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK AND HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO MY HOUSE BECAUSE I COULD NOT TURN THE CAR STEERING WHEEL TO DRIVE IT.

AFTER STARTING MY 2010 FORD FUSION THE STEERING LOCKED UP AND WOULD NOT TURN EITHER WAY. A WARNING MESSAGE POPPED UP " POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT." I CALLED A LOCAL FORD DEALER WHO TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO CHECK IT CALL BACK NEXT WEEK. ALSO CHARGE OVER $100 TO CHECK IT. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2011 AND ABOVE FOR THE SAME THING. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND EVERYTHING WAS OK FOR NOW. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO THE PUBLIC. FIX IT FORD.

MY 2010 FORD FUSION HAD ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT FAILURE. BRAKES FAILED TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY WHEN ABS ACTIVATED DURING BRAKING ' BRAKE PEDAL WOULD GO TO FLOOR ' WITH ONLY FAINT BRAKING POSSIBLE. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES ' THANKFULLY THERE WASN'T AN ACCIDENT AND NO ONE WAS INJURED. I TOOK TO DEALER FOR RESOLUTION. DEALER UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FIRST 2 TIMES. I TOOK TO DEALER THE THIRD TIME ' THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. ABS HCU WAS REPLACED. REPAIR COST WAS VERY EXPENSIVE.

GOT THE 'POWER STEER SYSTEM FAULT' MESSAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME A COUPLE DAYS AGO, TURNED MY CAR OFF THEN ON AND THE MESSAGE WENT AWAY. STARTED MY CAR YESTERDAY AND THEY MESSAGE RETURNED. TURNED MY CAR OFF THEN ON AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES TO NO AVAIL. THIS IS MY ONLY CAR SO I AM FORCED TO RISK MY WHOLE LIFE TO GET AROUND. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HOLD UP IS ON THIS RECALL. FORD KNOWS THEIR IDS IS FLAWED AND HAVE RECALLED 2011 AND 2012 FUSIONS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY NEED TO FIX THEIR MISTAKE BEFORE I GET RAN OVER OR RUN SOMEONE ELSE OVER. NOT TO MENTION I HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. HELP ME LORD. IDK WHAT WILL BREAK FIRST, MY WRISTS OR THE STEERING COLUMN.

TAKATA RECALL I CONTINUE TO GET EXCUSES OF WHY THE DEALER DOESN'T HAVE PARTS OR A RENTAL CAR FOR ME. I NEED MY VEHICLE REPAIRED OR REPLACED AS THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I NEED TO HAVE A VEHICLE WITH FULL SEATING!

ERROR CODE P2112 - STUCK THROTTLE BODY. ACCELERATION DISAPPEARS AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED, RESULTING IN LIMP ALONG, NO PROPULSION TO ZERO. CAR STALLS IN HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC, REQUIRING IMMEDIATE PULLOVER. VERY UNSAFE. OTHER FUSIONS OF SAME EXACT YEAR, PRODUCTION LOCATION, AND MODEL ARE COVERED UNDER A CUSTOMER SERVICE BULLETIN 13N03, BUT NOT THE HYBRIDS, EVEN THOUGH EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. JUST WANT THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL BUG TO BE REMOVED FROM MY VEHICLE. FORD INDICATES NO COVERAGE OR FIX, DUE TO IT BEING A HYBRID... ALTHOUGH SAME ISSUE AS NON-HYBRID FUSIONS FROM SAME YEAR, PRODUCTION FACILITY, BUILD DATE.

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FIALURE. MY CAR HAS SAME ISSUE AS CAMPAIGN 13N03 BUT SINCE MINE IS HYBRID FORD WILL MOT HONOR IT. MY CAR SHUT OFF THREE TIMES ON A DRIVE FROM CALIFORNIA BACK TO AZ WITH ERROR PLEASE PULL OVER AND LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND HOT OUTSIDE

LEFT FOR WORK AND DASH SAID POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. SHORTLY AFTER DASH ALSO STATED SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. CANNOT RESET AND CAN BARELY TURN WHEEL. HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN PAST BUT WAS ABLE TO RESET BY TURNING OFF AND STARTING CAR. NOW CANNOT RESET. PART IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND DANGEROUS WITHOUT IT.
