2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED KEARNY PEARSON FORD AT (858) 560-5544 (LOCATED AT 7303 CLAIREMONT MESA BLVD, SAN DIEGO, CA) ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE HYBRID COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MP ON THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS LIKE TURNING OFF THE KEY. A RED TRIANGLE LIGHT SAID GOOD LUCK "STOP THE CAR". THIS IS WITHIN 100 MILES HAVING PAID 1200 TO A FORD DEALER TO REPLACE THROTTLE BODY AND COOLING PUMP THAT WASN'T ONE OF THE 1.6 MILLION FORD HAD TO EXTEND WARRANTIES. SHAME ON NHSTA FOR NOT MAKING THEM RECALL EVERYTHING.

THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR STICKS CLOSED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO GO MUCH SLOWER THAN EXPECTED AND THIS OCCURS AT UNEXPECTED TIMES. THE CONDITION CREATES POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR THE DRIVER AND VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE IN ONLINE VEHICLE FORUMS. ENGINE CODE PRODUCED BY THE VEHICLE COMPUTER IS P2112.

DRIVER DOOR LATCH SPRING BROKE. DRIVERS DOOR OPENED WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE. I-4 IN TAMPA FLORIDA. AT SPEED LIMIT OF 70 MPH. HAD TO HOLD DOOR SHUT WITH HAND TILL I COULD GET OFF ROAD SAFELY. FORD WOULD NOT COVER UNDER PRESENT RECALL OF THIS PROBLEM. ON NEWER MODELS. COSTING ME ALMOST $400 FOR THE REPAIR.

I WAS DRIVING ON A REGULAR BUSY STREET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WITHOUT NO WARNING THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT IT BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE THE CAR AND I COULD NOT CONTROL THE CAR OR MAKING IN TURNS IN THE CAR AND ENDED UP HITTING THE CURB AND WAS STUCK IN TRAFFIC. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON THE FREEWAY OR I DID NOT HIT ANYBODY.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE, ONLY FROM THE OUTSIDE. WE MUST ROLL WINDOW DOWN TO OPEN CAR DOOR.

MY 2010 FORD FUSION HAS A " POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" MSG AS WELL AS A "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC". THESE BOTH CAME ON 8 DAYS AGO (8/18/2017), WITHIN A FEW MINUTES OF EACH OTHER. THE "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" MSG CAME ON WHEN I STARTED MY CAR UP. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR, BUT AFTER ABOUT 2 MILES OR SO THE "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC" MSG CAME ON. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC DONE THAT DAY AND NO FAULTS CAME UP EVEN THOUGH THE MESSAGES WERE STILL DISPLAYED ON DASH SCREEN, AND I STILL HAD NO POWER STEERING. I HAVE NO POWER STEERING AT THIS TIME. STEERING IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALERSHIP, BUT AS YET, MY CALLS HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED. ADDITIONALLY, I CALLED THE NATIONAL FORD HOT LINE AND GOT NO WHERE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY. I AM SURE THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY 2010 HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A NATION WIDE RECALL ON NUMEROUS VEHICLES WITH THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL. WHY HAS FORD NOT COME UP WITH A REMEDY? OTHER COMPANIES HAVE. MEANWHILE, MY FAMILY IS DRIVING A DANGEROUS CAR.

MY FORD FUSION LOST POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING WITH MY KIDS AT 45 MPH ON A CITY STREET. LUCKILY NO CARS WERE AROUND ME AND I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER TO SAFETY. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, BACK ON, STILL NO POWER STEERING. RECEIVED WARNING FOR ADVANCE TRACK AND SERVICE POWER STERLING NOW. CHECKED ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS AND CLEANED BATTERY WITHOUT ANY LUCK. DISCOVERED THERE NEEDS TO BE AN ENTIRE REPLACEMENT OF THE EPAS SYSTEM ON MY CAR. THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THE YEARS 2011 AND 2012 HOWEVER NOT FOR 2010, WHICH IS THE FIRST YEAR THIS SYSTEM WAS INSTALLED. ISSUE OCCURRED AT 85,000 MILES. FOUND OUT THAT THE REPAIRS ON MY CAR WILL COST BETWEEN $1800 TO $2000 DOLLARS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE AS THE OTHER RECALLS HAVE BEEN PLACED, BUT FORD IS NEGLECTING THE YEAR IN WHICH THE SYSTEM WAS FIRST INSTALLED, PUTTING MYSELF, MY CHILDREN, AND OTHERS AT RISK.
