Steering wheel is locked and no power steering. I think it's due to recalls on Ford Fusion. My car doesn't have one but I think it should. The recall is the electric power assist system. My car is only four years old I shouldn't have this problem. The car was parked when this happened but what if we were on the highway.

My vehicle would not shift into drive (Ford Fusion 2016 2L 5speed automatic). It shuddered and crawled forward but the transmission would not engage. I braked to a stop put it park and the car was still shuddering. I turned ignition off and attempted to restart engine and engage from park to drive. It did not shift to drive but shuddered. I had to repeat this process 4-5 times and then it finally moved from park to drive and drove somewhat normal 1 day prior the car was jerky as it engaged. This jerky behavior of the transmission at low speeds I was experiencing yesterday returned. The car became driveable but now a I am very supsect and I cannot find a recall for this issue that matches my VIN number. Eventhough many Ford Fusion made during the same year as mine have experienced this issue

My vehicle was parked in front of my house (thank god) and when I started it, 3 alarms came on and I was not able to move the steering wheel. Had this happened while I was driving, I would most certainly been in an accident. The issue is the entire electronic steering system failed. Whole component needs to be replaced. Exactly one year to the day after the last electrical failure.

My friend aron was having an emergency when woke up at 4:00am to come to his help. After waking up with a redbull, I was then heading to the house at wich aron lives. I was unfortunately an to my surprise. Lost complete control of my 2016 Ford Fusion the steering wheel locked. As did the tires. And to my horrible experience of this car in motion then accelerated to 40 miles an hour. I was completely helpless as to redirect the car in motion to a safe path. I remember the Fusion was airborne after I was off the road hitting a ditch. The Ford flipped upside down. I sustained head injuries and back an as well. My arm was cutt up bad. Im now living with these scars for the rest of my life.

When the steering wheel is turned all the way to either side, multiple alarm sounds go off in the vehicle including loss of power steering, loss of reverse sensors, loss of hill assist and loss of stability control. This occurs anytime the wheel is fully turned, either stationary or moving. This occurred 2 years ago in the same vehicle and they replaced the computer, after not finding any other issue. Now it is occurring again, same symptoms, same cause. A video can easily be sent if requested.

I was driving down the road about approx 40 mph when my light went off saying that my traction controls were both on and in use. It was like my power steering went completely out, out of no where. I was driving straight and it also popped up that my steering and hill assist was not working. I was afraid to pull over and shut my car off and be stuck, so I drove it down the road a few miles more and turned it off in my parking lot. When I turned it back on, everything seemed fine. Also, after fueling my vehicle up, it has been rough idling for a dew and then will even out. When stopping at a light, it will also rough idle and even back out as well. I am at approx 65,000 miles, 2016 AWD Ford Fusion turbo. I am due for an inspection and oil change next week and hopefully get some answers as to what it could be. It makes me completely scared now because I am a single mother with kids. After reading several other complaints that are just like mine, this doesn't seem like an isolated incident.

So I bought a 2016 Ford Fusion SE and about two weeks later after just booking a hotel room went to move my Fusion to a closer parking spot and as soon as I started it the left side of the screen above steering wheel showed a box that read " steering assist fault service required". and there was no power steering at all. It also reads service advance track, and uphill parking assist unavailable.

- Tulsa, OK, USA

Very very angry...pulling out of a parking spot and my steering wheel seized up. Could not turn left or right.the dash alerts were "service advance trac" "steering assist fault service required". had it towed to russ milne Ford ($70). Was told there was no recall on this issue for 2016 Ford Fusion...what!!!! this is very dangerous and Ford needs to be responsible and have a recall before someone gets seriously hurt or killed. Will cost me $2040 to have fixed with only 78,000 miles on the car. Many complaints...need a class action lawsuit!! very disappointed

Vehicles power steering failed while leaving a parking space.

- Pewaukee, WI, USA

I was driving upon making a left hand turn in the city the steering wheel became very difficult to turn, the stability control light and traction lights all lit up on the dashboard, basically felt like the power steering gave out. I'm not sure the cause of this or how it can be resolved. I also noticed everytime I refuel the vehicle and start it up the rpms will drop as if the vehicle is going to shut off and becomes hesitant for a few mins while parked at the pump and then it idles back normal.

- Woodbridge, VA, USA

When I purchased this vehicle or financed it from the dealership I asked for the car fax and noticed there were two safety recalls and asked if they had been fixed and they gave me two computer pieces of plain white print out paperwork that only said serviced recall and that they did all their service paperwork like that now ! I was doubtful until I just checked your site and found 8 unrepaired recalls to my car.

- Brownsburg, IN, USA

Electronic warning that the power steering is no longer functioning property, epa light flashing on and off, and stated that there was an issue with the rear park aid. My car has less than 30K miles and it happened multiple times driving both locally and highway miles. Typically will occur after driving for more than 5 minutes, problem can be fixed by putting vehicle in drive and rotating wheel all the way in both directions and then restarting vehicle. Problems is recurring though and has happened multiple times in the past 3 weeks. Problem causes steering wheel to become extremely difficult to turn and leads to issues maneuvering the vehicle. Very dangerous especially when trying to make any turns. I am bringing my car into be serviced tomorrow as it is very dangerous to drive, will have further documentation after that.
