2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED THIS RECALL NOTICE IN SUMMER OF 2016 CALLED FORD FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND EVENTUALLY LEFT MY INFORMATION FOR THEM TO CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS FOR THE REPAIR BECAME AVAILABLE. YESTERDAY, OVER A YEAR LATER I CALLED BACK BECAUSE I HAD NOT HEARD FROM THEM. MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE. I FEEL THIS HAS BEEN MORE THAN AN AMPLE AMOUNT OF TIME.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIX MY CAR AT THIS POINT AND CANNOT TELL ME IF THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY NOTIFIED ME ON JULY 1,2016 OF A RECALL INVOLVING TAKATA PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS. I HAVE CALLED MY DEALERSHIP EVERY MONTH SINCE THEN AND ALSO CALLED FORD MOTOR CO. CUSTOMER SERVICE. EVERY TIME I CALL ; ALL OF THE ANSWERS ARE THE SAME. PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I HAVE ALSO BEEN ADVISED TO PARK MY CAR AND NOT TO USE IT UNTIL SUCH PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. TODAY I MADE MY CALLS TO BOTH MY DEALERSHIP AND TO FORD. BOTH GAVE ME THE USUAL ANSWER. NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I RECEIVED IN TODAY'S MAIL A NOTICE OF TAKATA'S BANKRUPTCY. WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO? WE ARE IN OUR MID 70'S AND CAN NOT AFFORD TO REPLACE OUR 2010 FORD FUSION. NOR CAN WE AFFORD TO PARK IT AND LEASE ANOTHER CAR.

POWER STEERING ASSIST WILL QUIT AT ANY TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE ON ROADWAYS WITH 60+ MPH. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 TIMES OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. FORD IS RECALLING THE 2011 -2013 MODELS AND OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT WILL NOT INSURE OUR SAFETY IN A CAR THAT HAS ONLY 113,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM PRESENTS ITSELF UNDER VARIOUS CONDITIONS I.E. STARTUP IN THE GARAGE, LOW SPEED TOWN DRIVING, AND INTERSTATE SPEEDS. THIS LAST OCCURANCE HAS ALSO CAUSED A FAULT IN THE ELECTRONIC SWAY CONTROL.

TAKATA RECALL. COMPLAINT FILED 1/27/17, #10947903, FIRST RECALL DATE FROM FORD WAS 6/1/16. 10/18/2017 AND FORD STILL DOES NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR! THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS RECALL. FORD SEEMS TO BE DRAGGING THEIR FEET!

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS NOTIFIED IN JUNE 2016 OF THE RECALL AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE ON THE MATTER. I LIVE IN TEXAS AND SHOULDN'T I BE ON THE HIGHER PRIORITY LIST? IT SHOULDN'T TAKE THIS LONG FOR THE REPAIR ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS PUTTING THE PUBLIC'S SAFETY AT RISK!!! IF THEY ARE STILL MANUFACTURING THESE PARTS THEN WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG? THESE REPAIRS SHOULD BE PRIORITY #1 AND IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THEY ARE.
