Fusion brakes became very spongy last year called the dealer, took car in they reported "resetting the brake sensor", and brakes were functioning satisfactory. 2 weeks ago, problem returned on a trip of 500 miles, thought brakes were loosing fluid, checked fluid was fine. Pumped brakes in park very hard X 5-10 reps X 3 sets, brake partially returned. Arriving home brakes functioned fair. Now past 2 days unable to reset brakes and they are very spongy, very risky for travel and performing unexpected stopping. Ford service reports some of these vehicles are under recall some are not"? I will redress this with dealer this week. Now steering fault is showing up, looses assist while driving, makes parking and avoidance maneuvering difficult and dangerous. Again some vehicles under recall not mine ?"

My car was in motion while driving in NY city traffic; the power steering went out and we received the advanctrac / service power steering now message. It was diagnosed that the rack and pinion needed replaced. My mechanic told me it was going to cost 400 dollars alone for the part. I looked at this issue online and countless people seem to he having the same issue the 2010 Ford Fusion but Ford has not have a recall for it yet. I'm still driving it, times are hard I cant afford this expense.

- Battle Creek, MI, USA

After 3 years of the power steering assist fault and service advance trac warning messages the car finally held the code long enough for Ford to diagnose the code. There are 4 control arms and the power steering rack that are bad in the car now and Ford wants $2875 to make the repair which I cannot afford and now have a useless car.

My car was having multiple issues. First the epas system went out as I was driving. There was a recall for previous versions but when I looked up the 2010 Ford Fusion 3.0lv6 AWD it was not included even though it was one of the pioneer vehicles of Ford to have the system. Once I got the power steering repaired I started hearing a grinding. As I drove the car to my house to get a safe look all of a sudden there was a jerking and crunching sound as I drove on a straight road with slight grading. Luckily I was only going 35mph and was able to control the vehicle. I took it to the mechanic and found out that it was the power transfer unit and the rear drive shaft. After talking to the mechanic he said that the ptu is one of the most commonly replaced parts in the AWD Ford vehicles. It is obvious after more research that Ford is well aware that they are providing a faulty product and are placing them in all of their AWD systems. My understanding is that the ptu unit in the Ford Fusion 2010 is the same as in all other Ford AWD vehicles. Since I spent so much money to get the power steering fixed I had to put my car in a garage for the winter so I could save up to fix the now funked ptu. My car hasn't even cracked 89K miles.

Vehicle makes poppong sounds when car turns to side

Takata recall, I have a 2010 Ford Fusion. I have only 62,000 miles on my vehicle. I left work was crossing a busy bridge and lost my power steering and advanced tracking at the same time. As I was turning left onto the bridge in traffic I lost control and almost went into the side of another vehicle. I began getting service power steering and service advance tracking alerts. I have researched this since it happened November 28th 2017. I find there was a recall for the year after 2011. I can not believe my safety was in jeopardy and I am responsible for paying for a defect that has affected many vehicles of the same year. I need help.

The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. While driving 60 mph, the steering wheel seized and the power steering service and traction warning indicators illuminated. The contact called sheridan Ford sales (4001 kirkwood hwy, wilmington, de 19808 (302) 999-0261) for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the cost. The contact stated that the failure continued and the vehicle pulled to the right and left while driving various speeds. The contact had to turn off the ignition, wait a few moments, and restart the vehicle in order for the power steering to return to normal. The contact attempted to add power steering fluid, but discovered that the steering was electric. Several months later, while driving out of the driveway, the vehicle began to bounce. The contact exited the vehicle and noticed that the front passenger side tire was turned inward. The vehicle was driven back to the contact's home and, while inspecting the front wheels, she noticed that the front driver side tie rod was fractured. The vehicle was not taken to an independent mechanic or dealer for diagnostic testing or repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

Just paid $1658 for the removal and replacement of the rack & pinion in our 2010 Ford Fusion due to an inherent defect of the steering system that occurs around 90,0000 -100,000 miles.

Driving at about 15 mph straight ahead, went over a very small bump, a big noise and the front end on the drivers side suddenly dropped. Inspection revealed the driver's side front spring had rusted out and broken near the bottom causing the spring to slip out and putting all the weight on the strut causing the front end to collapse on that side. Turns out the front passenger front spring was also rusted extensively at the bottom although it had not yet broken. Ended up having to replace both front spring/strut assemblies. Concerned that if this had broken at highway speeds or going around a sharp curve, could of caused the vehicle to lose control. Thinking that this problem would be limited to northern states where road salt is used more heavily.

- Garner, NC, USA

Car lost power steering as I was turning, pulled hard right, causing car to hit a small tree. Minor damage; cracked headlight lens and front nose piece detached from fenders. The car was restarted and the steering appeared to be fine. However, since this happened, the steering appears to be harder to control and the car has a hard pull when accelerating similar to torque steering. The car never had a problem with torque steering prior to this incident. The car also developed a sway when hitting the smallest road bumps, such as coming off a bridge.

The transmission would seem like it would go into neutral between 1-2 shifts and also on the highway it would sometimes act the same in gear 6. the transmission was changed once by Ford. Reprogrammed 4-5 times, and multiple parts changed and still poor performance exist. This vehicle was purchased new from the same dealer that has serviced it and I would like to claim this as a lemon in the state of fl while still under the factory power train warranty.

- Miami, FL, USA

I was driving at about 25-30 miles per hour and got a flat tire. I stopped the car and changed the tire, but once I started driving the caution alarm came on and started flashing that the "electric power assisted steering" malfunctioned. It became difficult to steer the car. I almost ran off the road into a drainage canal trying to make a turn.
