On approximately August 25, 2022 I noticed that my brake pedal had to be depressed further than usual, so I took it to a mechanic, who diagnosed hydraulic problems and did considerable repair work. That appeared to resolved the issue, but the problem recurred about September 7. The mechanic then identified a "silent recall" for replacement of a part in the automatic braking system -- # 19V904000. When I scheduled my vehicle for the driver airbag recall work, I was told my particular 2010 Ford Fusion was not eligible for the brake repair, even though my car's symptoms axactly match the description for #19V904000. I paid $450 for the work my mechanic did, but the problem was not resolved; and my Ford dealer says they can't repair it, either.

After driving the car normally, parking, and leaving the car for about 30 minutes, upon restarting the car, the Service Autotrac, anti-skid, ABS, and brake warning lights illuminated. The brake pedal travels nearly to the floor with no braking. Car had no braking unless I stomped on the pedal which locks up the brakes to stop. No trouble codes in OBD II. Car has 166,000 miles. I looked on You Tube, and this is a COMMON PROBLEM with Ford passenger cars and F-150s.

Drove on freeway 33 miles with no issues with brakes. Picked up my son and then going down hill of where we live No Brakes!! All brake faults lit up on dash. Restarted car several times still no brakes. I had to use emergency brakes to stop Aug 29 2022

While approaching a stop sign I pressed on the brake pedal and the vehicle did not slow down. At the same moment the "Brake System" warning light came on. When I pressed the brake down as hard as I absolutely could, the vehicle finally began to slow ever so slightly, but I still was not able to slow at a reasonable rate for only going 15 miles per hour, and ended up passed the stop sign. Luckily there was no oncoming traffic. After getting my vehicle towed to the nearest Ford service center, they returned with a quote to replace the ABS Module. After doing a quick search on the internet I found that there is a recall for that exact part, for the same year and model of my car, a 2010 Ford Fusion. However, when the Ford service center looks up my VIN, they say that it is not a match for the recall and therefore aren't responsible for the issue.

Spongy brakes. Occasionally the pedal goes to the floor and the vehicle will not stop as it should.

- Ferndale, MI, USA

No symptoms prior to failure. As I was driving, brakes went out. ABS warning lights came on along with other brake malfunction lights. I have to press the pedal down 90% of the way for the brakes to engage at all. It has happened twice now. The first time, the codes were reset and the car worked until the second time. Now the brakes don't work. Mechanic says the ABS Module needs replaced.

About July 13th 2022, I was driving to town with my children. The car's warning sounded and displayed a mechanic's wrench. Moments later while approaching the intersection a few hundred feet away, I had no foot brakes. I was able to use the hand brake and stop before running the busy cross traffic going 50+ mpg. Had I not reacted as fast I did, there would have been a three-car incident at the intersection threatening all of our lives. Had the car towed to the repair shop and they confirmed that the abs module and brake booster was no longer functioning and needed to be replaced. They were unable to perform that repair, so I then had it taken to a dealership for a second opinion, and they had the same conclusion. Apparently, this is such a problem that the abs module part is backordered with no estimated stocking date. Now I've been out of a car for over a month. Kendal Ford of Marysville Washington recommended repairs. 1. HYBRID BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS (EEC TEST, PINPOINT TESTS) (NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS, BRAKE/TRACTION CONTROL/WRENCH...) Fail 2.

While driving my 2010 Ford Fusion, on five separate occasions (two times less than a week apart) and over the last five months, while stopping for traffic lights, traffic or pedestrians the brake pedal travelled just inches from the floor and extra effort was needed in attempt to activate the brakes hoping to come to a complete stop. On two jarring instances collision was avoided only by swerving the vehicle to keep from hitting a wayward pedestrian and the other instance was with another vehicle backing out in a mall shopping center. On all five occasions there was an associated amber ABS light on the dash, a sudden drop in brake pressure and severely degraded to no braking power during application. The brake fluid reservoir is appropriately filled with the manufacturer specified DOT 3 brake fluid and there are no leaks in the system whatsoever. I-€™ve been told at the Ford dealership that my vehicle will not be able to be inspected or seen by appointment for a little over 2 months (late Oct 2022). I-€™ve contacted Ford-€™s customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and they stated that my VIN# is not included in the recall: 19S54. It-€™s apparent that my vehicle is experiencing all of the identical issues which prompted the Ford recall 19S54. Please assist so the Ford Fusion community can resolve this issue before another catastrophic event occurs.

I own a 2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID. The ABS light, the Brake light, the Service Advancetrac, the Wrench, Etc. all were illuminated when the car on. While attempt to brake the brake pedal was depressed and I have to push hard on the pedal in order to make the car stop. I took the car to The Ford Store Morgan Hill (17045 Condit Rd. Morgan Hill, CA 95037 408-816-2332) and was informed that the failure might related to NHTSA campaign number: 19V904000 (Servive Brakes, Hydraulic). However, the VIN was not included.

The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that when attempting to depress the brake pedal, it would touch the floorboard. The brakes service warning light had illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to a certified mechanic who replaced 2 calibers and the brake pads but the failure persisted. The contact took the vehicle to another certified mechanic who stated that the calibers had blown the brakes on the vehicle due to a lift failing to close causing brake fluid to get inside. The entire ABS system needed to be replaced however the vehicle had not been repaired as of yet. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.

On occasion, the brake pedal goes to the floor and car does not stop. Red triangle warning light comes on. Parking brake is needed to stop car. I have taken it to ford dealer, and problem was not repeated during their test drive.

Brakes are exhibiting issues with long brake pedal travel and sponginess. This has started within the last few weeks where it is off and on but is continuous now. The dealer has the vehicle and diagnosed it as an issue with the HCU or ABS system. My mom was driving it and had difficulty stopping the vehicle due to long brake pedal travel. I saw there was a previous recall 19S54 on the same year model that was produced at the same plant. However Ford will not fix it since the production date was two months after the original affected date. The campaign ended with vehicles produced up to July. Hers was produced in September. Since the dates were not the same they would not cover it even if it was the exact same issue on the recall.

After going over a rough patch of pavement on the road, I felt the brakes give out and completely reach the floor almost as if there was no pressure in the pump. Now, the brakes go all the way down when trying to brake and it still stops the car but it shouldn't do that. I've read others online had the same issue with the brakes.

Out of nowhere, my brakes malfunctioned with the pedal sinking low to the floor. Several lights went off including check brake system, traction control and ABS. This issue seems to be exactly related to a current recall involving ABS on 2010 Fusions but doesn't appear to apply to the Hybrid model. The issue is intermittent.

- Portland, OR, USA

The breaks pedal on my Fusion just goes straight to the floor and can barely stop the car when its in drive and not giving any gas. A recall was issued on this model of a car but my car wasnt included for some reason. I am having the same issue with the ABS as the recall. Do your job NHTSA and make ford recall it on all fusions before someone dies. Ive already spent a ton of money on replacing all the brake pads, rotors, master cylinder and now have to replace the ABS system.

There is a recall for some vehicles manufactured near the time of this particular vehicle-€™s manufactured date for the ABS control unit. The valves stick causing unsafe breaking conditions. This particular vehicle exhibits the same behavior as described in the recall but this VIN is not showing up as one of the recalled vehicles for this problem. It is recall 19V904000 issued on December 12, 2019.

The same problem as safety recall19S54. My brake pedal went mushy and falls under the same exact problems that the safety recall is for. My vehicle however is not included in the recall

- Queen Creek, AZ, USA

When driving I am having to push my break peddle to the floor in order for my breaks to finally activate and begin to slow the car down if breaks will work at all at time. This is intermittent but is happening more often and has almost causing multiple wrecks. I was told it is the Hydraulic Control Module by a multiple professionals. This is also recalled on 2010 Ford Fusion models but does not include vehicle at the moment.
