BRAKES GONE SOFT. HAS BAD ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT

UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN IN ORDER TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKING WAS VERY SLOW/SOFT. IT DID NOT RECOVER AFTER STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE CAR. WAS ABLE TO GET TO MY MECHANIC WHO DISCOVERED A FAILED ABS HYDRAULIC PUMP CONTROL UNIT.

TAKATA INFLATORS- BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS FOR FORD TO REPLACE. SAFETY ISSUE FOR PASSENGERS.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AFTER ABS SYSTEM TRIGGERS, BRAKES GET EXTREMELY SOFT AND TAKE WEEKS TO RETURN TO NORMAL USUALLY AFTER HAVING TO FORCE A HARD STOP. I'VE TAKEN IT TO FORD SERVICE AND THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM, THEY GAVE ME LIST OF REPAIRS. RECENTLY, A MECHANIC ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT BUT STILL DIDN'T FIX THE SPONGY/SOFT BRAKE PETAL. SEE ATTACHMENTS OF REPAIRS AND FORD SERVICE'S EXPLANATION. PLEASE DO A RECALL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOW.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AFTER ABS SYSTEM TRIGGERS, BRAKES GET EXTREMELY SOFT AND TAKE WEEKS TO RETURN TO NORMAL USUALLY AFTER HAVING TO FORCE A HARD STOP.

THE DASHBOARD IN MY VEHICLE IS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT IS WARPED AND IMPACTS THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG. THE WARPED DASHBOARD BULGES IN FRONT OF THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT AND PREVENTS THE AIRBAG FROM SITTING FLUSH IN THE COMPARTMENT. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS, IT WILL NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY. WE HAVE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE FORD DEALER AND HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT FORDS RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE THE DASH. WE RECENTLY HAD THE AIRBAG REPLACED DUE TO A RECALL AND THE PROBLEM WORSENED BUT THE FORD DEALER AGAIN REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. WE'VE INCLUDED THREE PICTURES TO DEMONSTRATE THE EXTENT OF THE PROBLEM. SINCE THE DASHBOARD IS DEFECT AND AFFECTS THAT SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHBOARD AT NO COST TO US.

BREAK PEDAL PERIODICALLY GOES TO THE FLOOR ON WET OR UNEVEN PEDAL. LOSS OF BREAKING. SOFT PEDAL

TAKATA RECALL - RECEIVED 5 LETTERS FROM FORD BEGINNING IN JULY 2016; CONTACTED TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND HAVE YET BEEN CONTACTED FOR INSTALLATION OF NEW AIRBAG.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD FUSION. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING 25 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD AND THE VEHICLE DROVE THROUGH AN INTERSECTION. THERE WAS NO CRASH. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 149,172.

THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES MOST OF THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH 90 PERCENT LOSS OF BRAKE PRESSURE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO TAKE A LONGER AMOUNT OF TIME TO STOP WHEN THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES ON SLIPPERY ROADS OR WHEN DRIVING ON BUMPY ROAD CONDITIONS. THIS HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY FOR OVER A YEAR. THE LAST INCIDENT WAS 02/26/2019 AND ALMOST DISABLED THE VEHICLE WITH ITS SEVERITY.

THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT FOR THE BRAKES IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS OCCURRED AFTER THE VEHICLE TIRES SPUN SLIGHTLY IN ABOUT 1/2-1 INCH OF SNOW WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT ONTO A PAVED CITY STREET TRIGGERING THE ASB. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED INSIDE A GARAGE FOR A WEEK BEFORE BEING DRIVEN AGAIN AND THE BRAKING PROBLEM DISCOVERED. NOW WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP, IT FADES DOWN BEFORE COMING TO A HARD STOP AND THE VEHICLE TAKES A GREATER DISTANCE TO STOP. THERE IS GREAT CONCERN THAT THE BRAKES WILL FAIL COMPLETELY, CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS A SAFETY RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING ON SLICK ROADS, DURING A BRAKING EVENT THE ANTILOCK BRAKES ACTIVATED. AFTER THAT FOR THE NEXT TWO HOURS, WHILE DRIVING IN VERY SLICK CONDITIONS, WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED IT BASICALLY WENT TO THE FLOOR. BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE PUMPED TO GET THE BRAKES TO WORK. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO FLOOR HAD NEW BRAKES ALL THE WAY AROUND NEW MASTER CLINDER HAD SYSTEM BLEED 4 TIMES KEEPS COMING BACK AFTER ABS KICKS VERY DANEROUS PLEASE HELP

HELLO NHTSA, I WAS DRIVING MY CAR NORMALLY AS ANY DRIVER AND I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE FOR A STOP SIGN AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKES GO DOWN ON THE GROUND AND ARE NOT WORKING. THE ISSUE IS IN THE ABS MODULE AND PUMP. THIS ISSUE IS COMMON FOR ALL FORD FUSION AND MILAN CARS. THIS CAUSED ME SEVERAL HORRIBLE SCENARIOS WHERE I COULD'VE DIED. I TAKE EXTRA CARE FOR MY CAR AND THIS IS A CAR MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH FORD ABOUT THIS AND I HOPE THIS WOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL. HERE IS A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF A MECHANIC WHICH EXPLAINS THE PROBLEM IN DETAIL AND ALSO MENTIONS THAT IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL.

BRAKES GO TO THE FLOOR WHEN THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES COME ON AND CAR KEEPS ON GOING..SAME COMPLAINT OTHERS ARE HAVING. HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHIN WEEKS OF THE VEHICLE BEING REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). AUTONATION FORD MEMPHIS (2515 MT MORIAH RD, MEMPHIS, TN 38115, (901) 209-1259) WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE REMEDY FAILED TO PERMANENTLY CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS NEEDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL NOTICES ABOUT THE TAKATA RECALL BUT HAVE YET TO RECEIVE NOTICE THAT MY AIRBAG CAN BE REPLACED. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR WHERE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A CAR THAT IS POTENTIALLY UNSAFE IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT.

ABS BRAKE CONTROLLER: AFTER ABS WAS ACTIVATED ON A SLIPPERY STOP, ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY AT STARTUP AND WHILE DRIVING. ABS AND/OR TRACTION CONTROL OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY DURING NORMAL DRY STOPS. THE BEHAVIOR IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DESCRIPTIONS ON THE NHTSA SITE OF CARS WITH FOULED ABS CONTROLLER VALVES. TURNING OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM SEEMS TO DECREASE THE FREQUENCY THAT ABS GETS ACTIVATED DURING NORMAL STOPS.

NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE BRAKE WENT SOFT DURING 2018. HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED OUT 2X BUT NOTHING WAS DETERMINED. I'M DECEMBER 2018 DURING A SKIFF OF SNOW THE BRAKES WENT SOFT AND TO THE FLOOR AND MY DAUGHTER REAR ENDED THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF HER CAUSING $3,000 IN DAMAGE. THANKFUL THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG THAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING TO GET FIXED UNDER RECALL FOR 1.5 YEARS+ DID NOT DEPLOY.

WHEN DRIVING OVER ROUGH ROAD OR WHEN ITS RAINING AND APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR. IT SEEMS AS WHEN THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES IT CAUSES THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO LOSE STOPPING POWER. AFTER AWHILE THE BRAKES SEEM TO RESET. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO NUMEROUS MECHANICS AND THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AN INTERNET SEARCH, WHICH I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE OF, HAS DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS CASES OF THIS POSSIBLE ABS PUMP FAILURE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING EVENT FOR THE PAST YEAR.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V024000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT CALLED WEST HERR FORD OF ROCHESTER AT 888-787-8040 (LOCATED AT 4545 RIDGE ROAD, ROCHESTER, NY 14626) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE DASHBOARD WARPED AND THE AFFECTED AREAS ARE THE CENTER DASHBOARD AND THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON AFTER GETTING THE AIRBAG RECALL FIXED.

IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHILE ON SNOW, ICE OR BUMPS THE ABS ENGAGES THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND WILL HAVE TO BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR TO STOP AFTER THAT. TO BRING THE PEDAL BACK TO NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION I HAVE TO STOP THE CAR, TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR THEN PUMP THE BRAKES EXTREMELY HARD. THIS COULD HAPPEN IN AS LITTLE AS EVERY 20 FEET WHEN DRIVING IN SNOWY CONDITIONS. THIS ALSO AFFECTS THE STEERING WHEN DRIVING IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS. THE ABS IS SUPPOSE TO HELP KEEP THE CAR IN CONTROL WHEN ROADS ARE SLIPPERY. BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORKING PROPERLY I HAVE TO DRIVE SLOWER THEN EVERYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD AND IT WILL STILL SLIDE AROUND, ESPECIALLY ON TURNS. I HAVE SEARCHED THE WEB AND HAVE FOUND THAT 3 FORD BUILT CARS HAVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE OF FAULTY ABS PUMPS. I WAS GOING TO TO FILE A COMPLAINT YEARS AGO BUT WHEN I RESEARCH BACK THEN IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM TO FORD AND THE NHTSA SO I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE RECALLED SOON ANYWAY. HOWEVER SINCE THEY STILL HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED I DECIDED TO FILE A COMPLAINT. FORD CHARGES ABOUT $1500.00 TO REPLACED THE PART WHICH TO ME IS LIKE STEALING FROM THEIR CUSTOMERS SINCE THEY KNOW THEY PUT A FAULTY PART IN AND THAT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. BELOW YOU ASK WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE FIRST SNOW AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR AND STILL HAPPENS. THANKS

AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL NOTICE # 16S26 NHTSA RECALL 16V-384. RECEIVED FIRST LETTER INFORMING OF "POSSIBLE" RECALL IN JULY OF 2016. IN JUNE OF 2018 (TWO YEARS LATER) I RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER TELLING ME TO GO TO MY DEALER FOR THEM TO ORDER PARTS. I WENT TO MY LOCAL DEALER IN GOSHEN, INDIANA AND THEY TOOK THE INFORMATION AND SAID THEY WOULD CALL WHEN THE REPAIRS COULD BE MADE. IT IS JANUARY 2019 AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ONE WORD. THEY SAY THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE "YET". THIS IS RIDICULOUS. DON'T OFFER A RECALL IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO FIX THE VEHICLES.

WHILE TURNING ONTO CTY STREET THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED QUICKLY CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. THE NEXT STOP SIGN I CAME TO THE BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR. MY SON DROVE THE CAR THE NEXT DAY AND SAID HE ALMOST WENT INTO AN INTERSECTION BECAUSE THE BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR EVEN AFTER PUMPING THEM. THE BRAKES ARE NEW THE MASTER CYLINDER IS FULL OF FLUID. FORD MUST RECALL THESE VEHICALS IMMEDIATLEY, IF A DEATH IS CAUSED BY CONTINUED DELAY YOU WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. ACT NOW

TAKATA RECALL. MY PASSENGER SIDE HAS A LUMP FORMING UNDER THE AIR BAG. I ALSO GOT A LETTER SAYING THAT MY CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

DRIVING IN WET CONDITIONS ON SIDE ROAD, WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR RED LIGHT AND ABS KICKED IN AND SLID A LITTLE AND BRAKES WENT SOFT AFTER. WAS ABLE TO PUMP BRAKES AND THEY WENT BACK TO NORMAL. A FEW MONTHS LATER IN WET CONDITIONS AGAIN ON SIDE ROAD TRYING TO STOP, ABS KICKED IN AND BRAKES WENT SOFT. THEY NEVER RETURNED TO NORMAL AND WOULD HAVE TO PRESS BRAKES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO ENGAGE BRAKING. THEY HAD BEEN SOFT EVER SINCE. TOOK IN TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE HCU SYSTEM AND THEN THEY WERE BACK TO NORMAL.

BRAKES ARE LOW/SOFT WHEN ABS IS ACTIVATED AND IT'S BEEN DIAGNOSED AS BEING HCU DEFECTIVE FROM FACTORY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR PUBLIC BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE DRIVER TO CRASH INTO OBJECTS OR OTHER CARS. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY.

CHECK OUT ABS MODULE. *JB

TAKATA RECALL THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE. I'M STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE CAR AND A BABY RIDES IN IT.

EXTENDED BRAKING DISTANCE #EA18002 ISSUE. MY 2008 FORD FUSION'S ABS SYSTEM IS CAUSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GO TO THE FLOOR. HORNE FREEDOM FORD IN SAFFORD ARIZONIA DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A BAD MASTER CYLINDER WHEN I SPECIFICALLY DISCUSSED THE ABS HYDRALIC CONTROL WITH THEM BEFORE THE DIAGNOSIS. THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED AND THEN THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER BASED ON FREEDOM FORD'S DIAGNOSIS. THE BRAKE PEDAL STILL HAD PROBLEMS AND SHOWS THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT CAPABLE OF RELIABLY TESTING AND REPAIRING THE ABS MODULE ON MY 2008 FORD FUSION. THIS IS A CRITITCAL FAILURE OF FORD AND DEALERS TO DIAGNOSE AND FIX A SAFETY DEFECT IN THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT.

TAKATA RECALL THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO MY CAR OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT THAT HAS HAPPENED YET BUT I WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL 3 YEARS AGO AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED YET.

I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL RECALL NOTICES IN THE MAIL AND HAVE SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN YET TO THIS MATTER, THIS IS ABSURD.

BRAKE PEDAL IS SOFT AND REQUIRES INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL UNTIL THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED AFTER THE ABS SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED ON SNOWY ROADS.

BRAKING HAS STILL NOT RETURNED TO NORMAL AFTER 3 DAYS AND NO LONGER CONSIDER MY VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE AND CURRENTLY RESEARCHING OPTIONS TO REPAIR.
