As I was driving the brakes suddenly stopped working. Luckily I was in a parking lot. Advanced traction, ABS, and check brake lights came on. Very dangerous stuff.

My cars back brakes locked up destroying my back calipers pads and rotors. I was able to get the to the shop and the informed me that the ABS module was malfunctioning and caused this damage. With some research I found out that Ford issued a recall for this specific problem for every Ford Fusion up to 07/09 my car was manufactured 10/09 and not included in the recall. This issue is the exact same as what they recalled by my VIN was not included.

Brake pedal goes to the floor with weak braking power. It occurs while moving and stationary. Brakes do not generate sufficient pressure in system.

- Abingdon, MD, USA

When temperature drops to less than 35 degrees Fahrenheit outside rear breaks get stuck and pedal falls to the floor causing car not to stop. Had rear calipers replaced to correct the problem and found out that it is the ABS valve body. Also saw other reports and that a recall was being issued only to find that my car was not included. I love this car it has had other recalls and problems but has otherwise been very reliable and Ford has fixed just about all the issues it has had except this.

- Brunswick, OH, USA

Hcu left front and right rear valves are potentially stuck closed. My mechanic attempted and failed the ABS service bleed procedure. Verified pressure output from master cylinder (brand new) to ABS hcu. Monitored max input pressure within spec at ABS pressure transducer. Mechanic suspects hcu fault likely related to recent recall. I called Ford and while it matched the description of the mentioned recall, my VIN number did not qualify. Was told to have the maintenance performed and keep receipt for potential reimbursement in the future.

Request to add VIN # to NHTSA campaign id#: 19V904000. Brake pedal always went down more than normal. In June 2018, had rear brake pads, caliper and rotors replaced. October 2018, had front rotors replaced, March 2020 had rear brake, calipers and rotors replaced again. Mechanic bled the brakes and could not establish hydraulic pressure, but tested and there were no leaks. Mechanic said this vehicle should be on the recall list because there is no reason for the brakes to be replaced this often, the fluid is not getting where it needs to be. Vehicle is currently at the Ford service and they want me to pay for them to bleed the brakes when I just had a mechanic do it. My mechanic called them to explain, but since the VIN # is not on the recall, they are not handling this issue professionally. It is the valves within the hbs hydraulic control unit that is prohibiting the valves from closing properly which is why my mechanic could not pressurize the brake fluid in the system. The pedal goes all the way to the ground; the car was towed to the dealership. Therefore, I respectfully request this VIN# be added to this recall so repairs can be made. They will need to bleed the brakes anyway after replacing the valves in the hcu. This car is not driven every day, and sat in the garage most of the time from 2018 to March 2020. I do have receipts with descriptions of work done. This is a school car and I don't want to risk my child being in an accident because of this. Thank you for your consideration and I would appreciate a timely response.

Intermittently shows brake/advanced traction failure. Brake pedal must be pushed very hard when it is needed. The vehicle has been to the dealer several times but the problem persists. Sometimes the failures are several months apart and usually go away after one or two restarts. Today the problem happened again but I am unable to clear it by restarting the car. The car will now have to go to the dealer once more. I am not blaming the dealer as they have done what they can. Ford has been aware of this problem for a long time. This very dangerous condition should have been re paired by now. Today's problem happened when driving about 20 mph on a city St. In the past it mostly happened when starting the vehicle after it had been parked.

While driving on I85 in atlanta at highway speeds the vehicles ahead of me will brake suddenly causing me to jam my brakes all the way to the floor. Instead of stopping or slowing the vehicle, it continues to go forward and I almost rear end the car ahead of me. I replaced the master cylinder and all four rotors, brakes and calipers. All to no effect. At slow speeds it will pull to one side during braking or feel as if it is grabbing one side then the other instead of a single smooth pressure. At higher speeds you have to double pump to get the brakes to engage with any firmness. There is a ABS control unit recall on this vehicle 19V904000 but is for plant specific vehicles. This recall needs to be expanded to all 2010 Ford Fusion.im going to pay to have this fixed and hope the recall is expanded. As it is, it sits in my yard because we are too afraid to drive it.

I was driving on the freeway when the brake light came on my dash then began to blink. I started to pull to the side of the freeway when I noticed my brakes were not working, I coasted to a stop and called triple a. the car was towed to a repair shop where I was told there was nothing wrong with the brakes. I drove the car out of the repair shop and when I came to the first stop sign again it felt like I had no brakes. I was only going about 15 mph so I was able to stop the car by pushing extremely hard down on the brake pedal and using the aid of my emergency brake. I returned the car to the repair shop and after 2 days they informed me that the car had a problem that only the dealership can fix. The car needed the brake system software updated because of a glitch resulting in the brake hydraulic control unit to get stuck open or react slowly.

Had the rear brakes replaced at tires plus due to brake fluid leaking. They flushed the brake system and now we are getting an ABS hcu (hydraulic control unit) code and the valves are not closing properly. When I googled this issue, it appears Ford recalled approximately 600,000 vehicles which included the 2010 Ford Fusion, however my vehicle was not included in the recall. This issue is causing the brake pedal to not engage. My son brought the car into a tires plus in duluth, mn due to the issue when he's driving.

Perceived loss of brakes as noted in tsb-09-22-11. Dealer says no recall exists for this car but the problem occurring. Brake system warning lights came on and brake pedal went noticably closer to the floor when depressed

- Pelham, AL, USA

My vehicle experianced an ABS event a couple of months while driving on a lightly snow covered road. Since the event the brake pedal requires extra effort to stop the vehicle, ultimately ending with the brake pedal being depressed to the floor board. My vehicle is exhibiting identical symptoms outlined in Ford's recall 19S54, however after speaking with customer service I was informed that my vehicle production date of May 2010 is not included in their recall. Being that this issue affects other 2006-2010 Ford Fusion vehicles I feel that my vehicle should be covered under the above mentioned recall. (19S54) my local mechanic inspected the brake system today and came to the same conclusion, that the issue is likely being caused by a defect within the ABS valve unit.
