I purchased a new-to-me 2014 Ford Fusion from germain Ford in columbus Ohio on 2/2/18. On the 2nd day I had the car there was a light snow storm, a few inches, I am a wonderful driver with a clean record. I went to pull out of my street and I lost control of the car. I thought it was ice until I stopped at a light & my wheels started spinning and I could hardly maintain control. I felt like the steering wheel was taking over and I was fighting it as I kept sliding. This went on the entire two miles to work. I'd never been more terrified. I've driven in snow and ice for 20 years and this is my 6th Ford and I had never been so afraid of a car. I thought maybe it was a one time issue, maybe it really was just a strange one time thing? but on Sunday 3/25/18 it was raining here in columbus and I was driving about 40-45 mph on a wet road and my car started acting like it did in the snow, but this time I lost total control of the car tc came on and once again I could not control my car and the wheel jerked to the right causing us to spin out of control. The back passenger tire hit a curb, we spun around and the front passenger side hit the curb and we went into a grassy area coming pretty close to a pole and an apartment bldg. I ended up with a flat tire, bent rim, I needed an alignment, the paint is scratched under my car, and I need a new baring on the front drivers side. Also - I found out there was around 5 inches of water in my trunk due to a broken seal. I had the car towed to the dealer & I begged them to figure out what's wrong. Right now they claim nothing is wrong but they are fixing the leak & the damage. I paid for a new tire. I am beyond terrified to drive the car again. I have never lost control of a car before and now I have in this car - twice in less than a month. Something is very very wrong. Thank you for any help or suggestions. I just want a safe car.

Once I reached about 47,000 mile I experienced a problem with my steering where at low speeds it because extremely difficult to move my steering wheel. Other Ford Fusion had a recall for a bolt that would corrode from road salt or water and that is what has occurred but this specific model was not included in the recall so I now need to pay for T which stinks. The bolt was corroded though most likely from road salt since it is winter.

It will not let me turn. It is very hard to turn left or right

- Viola, WI, USA

Electric power steering system failed, making the car range from being difficult to steer to not being able to steer at all. The steering wheel was completely locked and would not turn. Luckily I was parked in my driveway when this occurred. In timer leading up to this the steering would sometimes take on a heavier than normal characteristic and be notchy. I would also sometimes hear a whining noise when turning. All of this was leading up to a total failure which thankfully occurred in my driveway.

I was driving on I-95 at about 70 mph, I received steering fault service now message and it went away after I hit ok. The car was still controllable as I didn't have hard time steering left and right. I didn't notice any unusual activity of the car. About an hour after I got that caution message, I stop to gas the car. When I started the engine backup, I received the same message plus three new ones. They are, steering loss stop for safety, hill start assist unavailable, and something about the advanctrac. I ended up towing it all the way back to Norfolk from emporio. I was lucky enough to have that happened when my car wasn't on the highway. But the the towing cost is really hurtful. Sad part is, I just got my car serviced plus multi-point inspection by Ford dealer on Dec 20th, 2017. Everything was reported as good, apparently not.
