According to Ford car needs hcu unit and ECU. Just had the car fully serviced and new brakes all around. Tires are new as well. Ford wants $3000 to replace the hcu and ECU and drain the brake fluid. I think I'm gonna have to scrap the car.

Vehicle lost power steering one year ago and dealer repaired. Vehicle lost power steering again. Warning light came on as soon as I turned the wheel on the first corner that power steering and stability needed checking. Once vehicle was turned off and back on again, lost all power to the steering making it extremely difficult to steer the vehicle. Very dangerous situation and apparently what they did to fix it the first time was not effective. I see there is some sort of recall on the 2012 Ford Fusion hybrids but despite all the complaints nobody has effectively addressed the issue.

Have found online that there are two recalls in process on my vehicle that the dealership did not notify me of. Also, there is a problem with the car surging forward when accelerating from a stationary position. This poses a hazard of me accidentally hitting anything in front of me when taking off.this has been happening ever since I leased the car in may of 2018. I do not remember how many miles were on the car at the time.

4/18/17 I went to leave my home in my 2012 Ford Fusion hybrid and as I pulled out of my house and proceeded to my first stop light, I was in motion going downward on a slight hill in my neighborhood and I noticed my breaks just drop to the floor and break pedals seemed to stiffen in their flexibility and I was headed straight for a red light. I was extremely terrified and did the best I could to maintain the car under my control.. I noticed the dash was full of red lights saying 'check break system ' and ABS lights were on as well ass 2 traction control llights. Had weather conditions been different and my son been in the car this could have posed a threat to our lives. It's extremely dangerous and quite unpleasant to imagine what feels like loosing your breaks. But I don't believe this is the case!! up until now I have not had any issues with my breaks, never shown any signs to be concerned with ABS the car has 32K miles on it shouldn't need breaks or master C it's a faulty ABS module.. I don't believe anything is actually wrong with the car. After I pulled over I turned car off and back on after checking in out a few times I started the car and noticed it looked normal for a second unlike other trys so I started to drive breaks felt fine came back up like normal and car worked but after 20 seconds of driving it' cut back out flashing red warning signs and beeping. Breaks sink down and become hard to control. I see this is common problem I need this fixed I'm extremely up set how after 32K this goes out and is not a small fix.

Today from a stop, turning right out of parking lot on to city street into right most lane, during acceleration in turn, power steering lost; followed immediately by several audible warning tones and message center reporting service advancetrac and service steering. While caught of guard, was able with effort to straighten vehicle, and recover without incident. At next light, put car in park, turned vehicle off and then back on. Immediately received warning tones and message center reporting service advancetrac and service power steering now. Vehicle as no power assist and effort is high to steer vehicle. Not clear how both systems "failed" at same time. But loss of safety feature for stability control and increased effort to steer requires more response time for routine and if required evasive maneuvers to avoid a collision. The mileage is approximately 28,600 miles, and this is the first issues with this vehicle. Last routine maintenance and multi-point inspection was completed at 24,200 at dealer in April.

Power steering first failed in the beginning of November 2013. There was 20083 miles on the vehicle. We were driving the car in our subdivision and all of a sudden alarms started and the car was very hard to steer. We were able to force steer the car back home. We shut off the vehicle and started it up again and the power steering started working again. The alarms and warning lights also went off. We brought the vehicle in to our local Ford dealer and they indicated there was nothing wrong. We then had a second event on February 21, 2015 where the power steering failed again. The mileage was 40163. We shut off the vehicle and started it up again and the power steering started working again. The alarms and warning lights also went off. We brought the vehicle in to our local Ford dealer and they indicated there was nothing wrong again. On March 12, 2015 multiple alarms activated and we completely lost power steering and almost got in to an accident due to heavy traffic and the inability to steer the car properly. We were very close to a Ford dealer and was able to force steer the vehicle into the parking lot where we were then assisted by the service department. Diagnostics indicated motor rotation angle sensor internal electronic failure and failure of electronic steering system. The epas system was found to be defective and several parts needed to be replaced.
