2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. FORD MOTOR RECALLED THE CAR IN JULY, 2016 AND HAS FAILED AND REFUSED TO FIX THE AIR BAG OR REPLACE THE CAR. I CANNOT ALLOW ANY PERSON TO BE IN THE CAR EXCEPT FOR ME, AS IT IS TOO DANGEROUS. FORD MOTOR HAS RECENTLY ISSUED A FOLLOW UP LETTER WITH FURTHER DELAYS TO FIXING MY CAR. FORD HAS DELIBERATELY DELAYED THE SOLUTION TO THE AIRBAG, IN ORDER TO FORCE PEOPLE LIKE ME TO SELL THE CAR OR USE IT AS A TRADE IN. IN ADDITION, WHILE OTHER MANUFACTURERS HAVE REPLACE THE FAULTY AIRBAG, FORD HAS NOT, AND I AM INFORMED THAT FORD MAY SEEK BE BE RELEASED IN THE TAKATA AIRBAG BANKRUPTCY.

STEERING FAILED WHILE DRIVING. I LOST STEERING ASSIST WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE, VERY DANGEROUS. THE VEHICLE WAS VERY HARD TO CONTROL ESPECIALLY AT LOWER SPEEDS. WAS DRIVING AROUND TOWN 45 MPH SPEEDS STEERING ASSIST DID NOT RETURN. HAD TROUBLE CODE U3000 PULLED FROM COMPUTER, AND FOUND OUT THAT THE STEERING RACK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL. I'VE SPOKEN WITH TWO FORD DEALERSHIPS, GREENWAY FORD IN ORLANDO ON 12/23 AND NORRIS FORD IN BALTIMORE ON 1/11, BOTH OF WHOM STATED THAT THERE AREN'T ANY AIRBAGS IN INVENTORY. OTHER SITES SEEM TO SUGGEST THE INVENTORY PROBLEM SHOULD BE SOLVED BY NOW. I RECEIVED MY NOTICE OF A RECALL MONTHS AGO. MY PARENTS DRIVE A NISSAN VERSA, AND THEIR NISSAN DEALERSHIP JUST GAVE THEM A RENTAL CAR TO DRIVE UNTIL THE PART COMES IN.

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A CAR LOT IT WAS SAID THAT IT WAS INSPECTED AND READY. ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE (2) MOTOR MOUNTS AND (1) TRANSMISSION MOUNT. WAS HAVING A VIBRATION FROM CAR, RUNNING, IN GEAR, AT STOPS, HOLDING BRAKE.

INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING - THE BATTERY INDICATOR WILL COME ON AND I WILL SUBSEQUENTLY LOSE POWER STEERING. IF I POWER OFF THE VEHICLE, THE INDICATOR GOES AWAY AND POWER STEERING RETURNS THE NEXT TIME I TURN IT ON. THE ISSUE WILL RESURFACE, AND IT IS NOW HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT CAUSED A RECALL IN THE 2011 AND 2012 MODELS, HOWEVER, MY MODEL IS THE 2010.
