2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

I TURNED IN MY FORD FUSION AFTER ALL THE GAUGES STOPPED MOVING AND I LET THE COMPUTER TURN ON. WHEN I DID THIS THE WARNING ABOUT SERVICE ADVANCED TRAC BLINKED ON AND SAID POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE AGAIN AND SAME THING. THE ERROR CODE HAS NOT GONE AWAY AND MY VEHICLE NO LONGER HAS POWER STEERING.

NO ACTION FROM DEALER FORD I RECEIVED RECALL LETTER SINCE 2016 NOW I HAVE NEW COMPLAINTS REGARDS TO POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE ADVANCETRAC

2010 FORD FUSION SE WITH POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. CAUSES VEHICLE TO LOOSE POWER STEERING. CAR IS VER DIFFICULT TO STEER SAFELY DOWN ROAD.

TAKATA RECALL 18S01 NHTSA 18V046 AFTER RECEIVING RECALL LETTER ON FEB 2016, I CONTACTED MANY FORD DEALERS IN SOUTH JERSEY NJ, PHILADELPHIA PA AND IN BUFFALO NY TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE RECALLED AIR BAG. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO SINGLE DEALER HAS THE PARTS UNTIL DATE 5/31/2018. THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE AND SOME OF THEM SAID IT MAY BE AVAILABLE BY FOURTH QUARTER OR AROUND THE END OF 2018. THEY OFFERED RENTAL SMALLEST COMPACT CAR (NOT EQUIVALENT TO MY CURRENT CAR) WHERE I HAVE TO PAY DEALER EXTRA 10 TO 12 DOLLARS PER DAY PLUS INSURANCE COST (AVERAGE $350- TO $500 MONTHLY UNTIL UNDEFINED DATE) I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AS I I DON'T WANT TO BE EXPOSED TO SUCH DANGEROUS DEADLY AIR BAG. THIS IS LIABILITY OF MANUFACTURE NOT CUSTOMER FAULT. IN ADDITION I CAN'T AFFORD THIS EXTRA UNFAIR RENTAL COST IMPOSED BY DEALERS.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V046000 (AIR BAGS) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION IN JANUARY OF 2018. THE DEALER (FREEDOM FORD WV, 501 MARY JANE WOOD CIRCLE, UNIVERSITY TOWN CENTRE, MORGANTOWN, WV 26501) STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER CLONINGER FORD (1241 US HWY 70 SE, HICKORY, NC 28602), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR MY AIRBAGS AROUND JUNE 2016. I HAVE STILL NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS REPLACED (MAY 2018) BECAUSE THE RECALL STATUS IS: "REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE" IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE MY CAR IS SAFE UNTIL THIS IS TAKEN CARE OF.

TAKATA RECALL, FORD DEALER DOES NOT HAVE IN YET; THANKFULLY NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET.

THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR WHICH 2011-2015 FORD FUSIONS WERE RECALLED IS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR 2010. I AM REPLACING MY RACK AND PINION AS A RESULT OF A TOTAL POWER STEERING FAILURE. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD HAVE RESULTED IN LOSS OF LIFE DURING THE FAILURE. THERE WAS NO WARNING THAT THE POWER STEERING WOULD FAIL, AND CLEARLY WAS A PROBLEM ON MODEL YEARS INCLUDING AND FOLLOWING THIS ONE, BUT 2010 WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. COST TO REPAIR IS $1700+

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL 6/1/18. PARTS NEVER AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO DEALER. 8 YEAR OLD CAR LOCATED IN A HOT CLIMATE IN HOUSTON TX IS HIGH RISK ACCORDING TO REPORTS
