THE STEERING GEAR / RACK AND PINION HAS FAILED THEREFOR NO POWER STEERING... THIS CAR REQUIRES THE SAME PART NUMBER AS THE FUSIONS RECALLED FOR SAME ISSUE BEGINNING IN 2011 PRT# AE5Z-3504DE WHY ISN'T THE 2010 INCLUDED? LUCKY FOR ME I CAN DRIVE WITH NO POWER STEERING IN LIGHT OF THE FACT I DON'T HAVE 2000.000 TO GET IT FIXED. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THE RECALL EXTENDED TO INCLUDE THE 2010? DEATHS? I WORK FOR A MECHANIC AND KOW WHAT IS WRONG AND THE PART NUMBERS AND THE FACT THAT THIS UNIT IS USED IN MULTIPLE FORDS...I FEEL LIKE WE THE 2010 OWNERS ARE BEING SHUNNED BECAUSE FORD DOESN'T WANT TO PAY FOR OUR RECALLS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MOON ROOF FAILED TO OPEN OR CLOSE AND THE DOORS FAILED TO OPEN. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE THE WINDOW TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (LONG-LEWIS FORD LINCOLN, 2551 JOHN HAWKINS PKWY, HOOVER, AL 35244, (205) 718-7027) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MOON ROOF WAS OFF TRACK AND THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPAIRED. THE OTHER FAILURES WERE NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO POWER STEER WHEN VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. WARNING SIGN SAID POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. THE ISSUE HAD OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES BUT I JUST TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AND THE ISSUE WOULD COME OFF BUT THIS LAST TIME IT DIDNT.

POWER STEERING ASSIST RANDOMLY WILL NOT WORK WHEN STARTING CAR. MAKES IT SO THE CAR IS VERY HARD TURN. HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN TO RESET SYSTEM. HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE OFTEN RECENTLY AND AM AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING.

STEERING RANDOMLY WENT OUT WHILE STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. TURNED CAR ON AND GOT THE ERROR MESSAGE "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT". COULD HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE DANGEROUS IF CAR WAS IN MOTION. RECALLS ON 2011 AND 2012 FUSIONS BUT NOT 2010. REPAIR IS VERY COSTLY.
