When stepping on the brake pedal, it goes all the way to the floor. I have to pump the brake and then sometimes, it will stop. There were no warning lights. The brakes were replaced but the problem still happened. I had my car towed to the closest Ford dealership. They replaced the Master Cylinder and it still happened. They have now replaced the HCU. My VIN number was not included in the recall NHTSA Campaign #19V904000 which was for EXACTLY what was happening with my car.

WHEN TRYING TO STOP, EVEN APPLYING PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, TAKES A WHILE TO STOP! CONTACTED FORD BEFORE FILING THIS REPORT AND SEARCHING IN INTERNET FOR RECALLS ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM, THERE WAS A REPORT BY CR, THAT ON FORD FUSION MODEL AND FEW OTHER MOTHERS, FORD HAS RECALLED ABOUT 600000 CARS, BUT DIDN'T PROVIDE ME WITH A RECALL CODE FOR A FAULTY BRAKE SYSTEM VALVE THAT DOESN'T FUNCTION PROPERLY! Summary Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2006-2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln Zephyr and MKZ vehicles. The valves within the ABS Hydraulic Control Units (HCU) may react with brake fluids containing specific corrosion preventative additives. This reaction may cause the valves to not close properly. BUT EVIDENTLY IT DOESN'T COVER 2010 MODELS, PERHAPS SOMEBODY SHOULD LOOK INTO IT, SINCE THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS FAULTY. THANK YOU

Applying brakes on wet pavement. ABS brakes failed. Brake peddle went to floorboard. Braking over uneven surfaces, suchas a speed bump, will also cause ABS to fail, with brake peddle going to the floorboard.

Couldn't move steering wheel all of a sudden, drove to store and when I got back in my car, I couldn't turn the wheel and had to get it towed. Nothing happened or changed on the way to the store. When car was first bought, steering would lock up while driving on highway and almost caused accidents multiple times.

there is a recall for 2010 ford fusion for the abs hydraulic control unit release date December 18, 2019 nhtsa campaign number 19v904000 i found this recall after my 2010 ford fusion experienced brake pedal to floor with almost no stopping power. i called the local dealership vogler ford of carbondale il and they told me my vin # is not part of this recall even though im experiencing the exact reason the recall was issued. ford motor company of dearborn they were of no help and was told to contact nhtsa the vehicle is still having the same braking issues

Brakes are spongy and need to be pumped to stop vehicle in a timely manner. Brake fluid flush, brake pads and rotors did not solve the problem. The 2010 Ford Fusion SE has a recall dealing with a similar issue, but my specific VIN is not a part of the mass recall. No warning lamps or messages came on, but the brake pedal almost goes all the way to the floor to stop the vehicle. My safety and another cars safety were at risk because my brakes do not respond quickly enough to come to a complete stop if someone drives out in front of me or if I am simply coming to a stop at a red light or parking. I will be taking my car to the nearest Ford dealership in the next 2 days to have the braking system inspected and confirmed.

Traction control system warning along with notification to check advanced break system. Below is the diagnosis from dealership. This matches with known issue for safety recall 19S54. My car was manufactured approximately 20 days after the window for this recall however it is the exact same issue. Dealer would not repair under recall nor Ford as a goodwill repair. DIAGNOSE AND REPLAC HCUY AND HIDRAULIC MODULE CODE B1342

ABS module is not working. This is happening to not jusy my vehiclehowever many as I can see online and when Ford is told something is wrong with it they say its not on the recall list. This is very dangerous as I almost got ibto a very bad accident because the brakes went to being ok to spongy and had to push to the floor to stop this car. Someone needs to fix this or it will end in someone getting seriously hurt or dying because of this situation.

Lug nuts are all stripped or broken. Check engine light, check fuel fill inlet message, poor driving all around, lack of power. Brake calipers broke off and brake pads fell out. Power steering locks up every once in a while

The brakes on my 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid, occasionally stop working, and the brake pedal, Has to be pushed harder and further than usual for the brakes to engage. This creates an extremely dangerous situation for anyone driving the vehicle, and any other vehicles sharing the roadway near my vehicle. The vehicle was not involved in an accident, but very easily could-??ve been. After the first time this happened, I replaced the brakes on my vehicle, however, that did not fix the issue. Upon further research, I found there was a Ford safety recall (19S54) on 2010 Ford Fusions for this very issue. The problem I am having, is caused by a valve within the brake system's hydraulic control unit sticking open, forcing the driver to push the brake harder and further than usual for the brakes to engage. Ford recalled more than 600,000 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years for the previously mentioned problem under Ford safety recall number 19S54. My vehicle is having the exact issues addressed in Ford safety recall 19S54. For whatever reason, my Ford Fusion is not listed as an eligible vehicle to be fixed under Ford safety. Recall 19S54 even though it falls within the make model and year of vehicles affected under the recall. I-??m assuming my vehicle isn-??t eligible simply because it may have been manufactured in a different plant than the one listed on the recall? However, I am experiencing the exact same, extremely dangerous, safety issue documented in the recall, and my vehicle otherwise fits within the parameters. This issue has created an extremely dangerous situation for my family, and others on the roadway. I would appreciate your help in getting the issue fixed under Ford safety recall 19S54. I already spoke to Ford customer service, and the representative stated they couldn-??t do anything unless NHTSA advised them the issue needed to be taken care of. Thank you for your time and consideration!

Anti-Lock brakes controller failed. Cannot brake without car shaking violently. Causes safety issues with controlling vehicle during stop ABS light came on Manufacturer (Ford) has not been able to get the (chip) for over 1 year

- Lakeway, TX, USA

ABS and anti skid light are on and those systems don't function. ABS control module is bad and Ford has a recall on this but the VIN for this vehicle doesn't fall under this recall for the same exact model year and part on other recalled cars. All cars with this issue should fall under this recall.

- Lacey, WA, USA

The brakes are acting in the same manner described in the previous recall issued by this agency. My vehicle was manufactured at the same plant as the previous recall for the same problem. I am at a loss as too what it will take" Will it take more loss of life" Get off your ass and do something!! Thousands of people are experiencing the same problem open your eyes and do something!

There was no incident this happened after. It literally just started a couple months ago out of nowhere. I tried to diagnose it myself. But the code was b-1342-e0 which is an ECU fault. I paid for a diagnostic to find out it was actually the ABS module sending the fault code to ECU. After some research, it appears 2010 fusions had a history of this ABS issue. Not sure why there is no recall, seeing as this could be a life threatening issue.

The Fusion has been worked on twice now replacing cylinders, however it was recently discovered that the issue is with the ABS Hydraulic Control unit. The car's pedal would push almost to the floor making the stopping power hazardous out of nowhere. After research on this unit, it appears it was a recall for many Fusions but not specifically for this mode. I am filing a complaint as it appears our specific model has the same issue but is not covered under the recall. We have spent over $1000 to get this replaced and seeking a refund.

Advance Trac light and brake light came on without any notice and lost ability to brake. Was able to use parking brake to avoid any collisions. There have been 0 issues before this that would have given me any advanced notice of this. After a Google search I found that this is apparently a known and fairly common issue with these cars.

- Holland, MI, USA

Brakes lose power --- depress all the way and there's no braking power. Almost got into a serious car crash since I literally could not stop (except for using the ebrake). Check engine light is on. This seems to be an incredibly common and dangerous issue with the older Ford Fusions (I have a 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid). Only 105k miles. Dealer recommends replacing ABS Module (among other things).

The hydraulic control module/ABS control unit has malfunctioned, causing the brake pedal to become spongy. The pedal is not firm, and I need to press the brake pedal all the way down to get normal braking force. With normal functioning brakes, you press the pedal down 25%; however, I must press down 75% until I even begin feeling the car slow down. There were no warning lights, and this problem has existed for two years. I have replaced the brakes and bled the fluid multiple times, but the problem persists. I have had very close calls with other drivers where I have not had enough time to stop due to having to press the brake pedal all the way down. This problem is constant and occurs whether I drive in the city or on the highway. The city is especially dangerous due to frequently having to stop for traffic signals or suddenly stopping for pedestrians or other vehicles on the roadway. I have not had this issue officially diagnosed by a dealership; however, my vehicle is available for inspection. I have experienced symptoms similar to those of many peers with the same vehicle. My peers have changed the master cylinder, brakes, and flushed brake fluid many times, yet the problem has persisted and has been diagnosed as a hydraulic control module/ABS control unit issue that requires replacing the unit. A recall was issued for select 2010 Ford Fusions regarding this issue; however, after checking on the NHTSA and Ford websites, my vehicle is not eligible for a recall despite experiencing similar issues. I hope by bringing this to your attention there can be a new recall issued to encompass all 2010 Ford fusions and associated models experiencing the same issues, as having functional brakes is extremely important for not only the safety of the vehicle occupants but also for others using the roadway. I hope the NHTSA, in collaboration with Ford, will work in the best interest of the public's safety to swiftly address this issue before any unfortunate accidents occur.

Brakes have same systems as discribed in 19S54 recall but my vehicle is not listed as needing that recall!

- Moundridge, KS, USA

I was driving the vehicle and it started beeping. I looked at the dashboard and multiple lights in relation to the brakes were on or flashing such as the brake light, abs, service advancetrac, traction control etc. The main issue was I was driving and the vehicle had some sort of glitch and all the lights for the brake system came on the and vehicles brakes did not work. The brake was soft and if depressed it went down to the floor. Luckily no cars were ahead of me and I was able to pull the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. After researching this, this was an issue for these model vehicles, but I thought this was addressed on my particular vehicle. This is a common issue with these cars and has happened to many of the vehicles as reported on various consumer report and the NHTSA. This issue is documented in the TSB-09-22-11 as well as 19S54 Recall. I shut the car off and turned it back on and the lights went away and it worked. Car was towed the dealer and they were unsure and I also reached out to Ford Motor Co but they were unwilling to help.
