2010 Ford Fusion complaints

THE STEERING GEAR / RACK AND PINION HAS FAILED THEREFOR NO POWER STEERING... THIS CAR REQUIRES THE SAME PART NUMBER AS THE FUSIONS RECALLED FOR SAME ISSUE BEGINNING IN 2011 PRT# AE5Z-3504DE WHY ISN'T THE 2010 INCLUDED? LUCKY FOR ME I CAN DRIVE WITH NO POWER STEERING IN LIGHT OF THE FACT I DON'T HAVE 2000.000 TO GET IT FIXED. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THE RECALL EXTENDED TO INCLUDE THE 2010? DEATHS? I WORK FOR A MECHANIC AND KOW WHAT IS WRONG AND THE PART NUMBERS AND THE FACT THAT THIS UNIT IS USED IN MULTIPLE FORDS...I FEEL LIKE WE THE 2010 OWNERS ARE BEING SHUNNED BECAUSE FORD DOESN'T WANT TO PAY FOR OUR RECALLS

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK THE MORNING OF JUNE 28, 2018 THE POWER STEERING IN MY CAR STOPPED WORKING. I ALMOST COULDN'T CONTROL MY CAR. WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE MECHANIC THAT AFTERNOON, WHO THEN INFORMED ME THAT THE ENTIRE EPS SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. I THEN GOT A CALL THE NEXT DAY STATING THAT IN ORDER TO REPLACE IT THAT I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE BOTH TIE RODS DUE TO THE BEING ATTACHED TO THE EPS SYSTEM. AFTER SPEAKING TO SOMEONE AT A FORD DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY THOUGHT THIS WAS ALREADY UNDER RECALL. LUCKILY WHEN I WAS DRIVING I WAS ONLY GOING 25 MPH IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, IF I WERE GOING ANY FASTER IT COULD HAVE CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT DURING DRIVING MAKING IT UNABLE TO TURN WHEEL 2010 SHOULD BEEN ADDED TO THE RECALL

POWER STEERING ASSIST RANDOMLY WILL NOT WORK WHEN STARTING CAR. MAKES IT SO THE CAR IS VERY HARD TURN. HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN TO RESET SYSTEM. HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE OFTEN RECENTLY AND AM AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING.

VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO POWER STEER WHEN VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. WARNING SIGN SAID POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. THE ISSUE HAD OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES BUT I JUST TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AND THE ISSUE WOULD COME OFF BUT THIS LAST TIME IT DIDNT.

STEERING RANDOMLY WENT OUT WHILE STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. TURNED CAR ON AND GOT THE ERROR MESSAGE "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT". COULD HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE DANGEROUS IF CAR WAS IN MOTION. RECALLS ON 2011 AND 2012 FUSIONS BUT NOT 2010. REPAIR IS VERY COSTLY.

CAR DIEING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD

VEHICLE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT LIGHT CAME UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER , I WAS TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION AND ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT.

AT TIMES THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING WILL LOCK UP WHILE I AM DRIVING, AND IT MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL.

CAR WAS STATIONARY. BOTH DOOR HANDLES WITHIN MONTHS OF EACH OTHER HAVE BROKEN. DRIVERS SIDE DOOR YOU CAN NOT GET OUT FROM THE INSIDE BUT CAN FROM THE OUTSIDE. PASSENGER SIDE DOOR YOU CAN GET IN BOTH WAYS BUT THE HANDLES ARE FLOPPY AND DON'T RETRACT AND STAY IN. HAVE TO MANUALLY PUSH THEM DOWN AND LOCK THE DOOR.

EVERY TIME I PUSH MY BRAKES TO STOP, MY BRAKES GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. I'VE REPLACED MY MASTER CYLINDER AND MY BRAKE BOOSTER BUT IT'S DONG THE SAME THING.

TAKATA RECALL - FORD HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THIS RECALL IN A TIMELY MANNER. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED 6/1/2016 AND NOW IT IS 7/2018 AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY. MY TWIN TEENAGERS SHARE THIS CAR, SO SOMEONE IS ALWAYS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

HEADLIGHT LOW BEAM PROJECTOR BEAMS HAVE BECOME HAZY AND CLOUDY. HEADLAMPS HAVE REDUCED BRIGHTNESS AND DECREASED VISIBILITY. MANY TIMES I CAN'T EVEN TELL THEY ARE ON IN THE EVENING AND THEY APPEAR DIM ON THE ROAD.

RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 2010 FORD FUSION SE 2.5 FOR MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER, AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF OWNING IT, THE CAR WOULD ONCE IN A WHILE POP UP A "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" MESSAGE ON THE INFO DISPLAY, WHEN IT DID THIS IT WOULD DISABLE THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING.. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF YOU WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR IN A PARKING LOT. PULLING OVER, SHUTTING IT OFF, AND RESTARTING WOULD TEMPORARILY CLEAR IT UP, UNTIL THE DAY THAT "STEERING ASSIST FAULT" APPEARED AND NEVER WENT AWAY.. NOW I HAVE A CAR WITH NO POWER STEERING FOR MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER.. TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP, THEY CALLED BACK LATER AND SAID "WE CAN'T FIX IT BECAUSE AFTER WE REPLACE THE STEERING RACK IT HAS TO BE FLASHED, AND THAT HAS TO BE DONE AT THE DEALER".. I CALLED THE DEALER, A $1,400 POWER STEERING REPAIR ON A FORD SEDAN? REALLY? THIS ISN'T A HIGH END GERMAN CAR.. WHY ON EARTH WOULD FORD NOT DO A RECALL FOR ALL OF THESE? DO A GOOGLE SEARCH, THIS IS QUITE OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW.

TAKATA RECALL. FORD FAILED TO NOTIFY ME OF THE AIRBAG RECALL THAT HAPPENED OVER 2 YEARS AGO. I ONLY FOUND OUT ABOUT IT BECAUSE I READ A NEWS ARTICLE THAT MENTIONED IT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME FORD HAS FAILED TO NOTIFY ME OF A RECALL, EVEN AFTER COMPANY REPS SAID MY INFORMATION WAS UPDATED AFTER I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED AFTER MY CAR'S ENGINE FAILED (IN LINE WITH THE FIRST RECALL). MY VEHICLE IS REGISTERED PROPERLY AND I HAVE BOUGHT IT NEW. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS DISHONEST COMPANY KEEPS OPERATING AND RISKING PEOPLE'S LIVES. I HAVE PASSENGERS IN MY CAR EVERY DAY AND IT'S UNCONSIONABLE THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN PROPERLY NOTIFIED OF THE COMPANY'S FAILURES. I WILL SUE THE COMPANY FOR THEIR FAILURES.

TAKATA INFLATORS - I BELIEVE. FORD STILL DOESN'T HAVE A WAY TO FIX THE RECALL. IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME. SHOULDN'T THEY HAVE A FIX BY NOW? NO ACCIDENT OR ISSUE AS OF YET, BUT THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED ASAP!

LOST POWER STEERING CAPABILITY WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. WARNING NOTICE AFTER THE FACT: SERVICE ADVANCETRAC, POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT.

TAKATA RECALL RECALL WENT IN TO AFFECT IN 2016. AS FOLLOWS IS A SUMMARY & STATUS OF THE RECALL: SUMMARY: THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD EXPLODE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. SAFETY RISK: THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD RUPTURE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE SUPPLEMENTAL FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. REMEDY: OWNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED BY MAIL AND INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A FORD OR LINCOLN DEALER TO HAVE THEIR PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACED. THERE WILL BE NO CHARGE FOR THIS SERVICE. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE

CRANKED CAR AFTER PARKED IN HOME GARAGE OVERNIGHT AND THE SERVICE ADVANCETRAC MESSAGE APPEARED. ABA, BRAKE, AND ADVANCE TRAC LIGHTS ARE ON HUD. CAR ALSO HAS NO POWER STEERING. THE CAR HAS 120400 MILES ON IT AND HAS ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED FOR THIS ISSUE ONE TIME BY A FORD DEALERSHIP. THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD 2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP AS CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED WITH 67508 MILES.. THE FIRST REPAIR WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER REPAIR NOTE FROM 1ST INCIDENT: SERVICE DIAG & REPLACE STEERING GEAR & REPROGRAM PSCM & PERFORM ALIGNMENT & TEST OK

POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE SHOWED UP ON DASHBOARD AND POWER STEERING WAS LOST WHEN CAR WAS TURNED ON AFTER BEING PARKED IN A PARKING LOT FOR A FEW MINUTES.

THE POWER STEERING OF THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN OUT FOR OVER A YEAR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME POWER STEERING FAULT ON 2011 FORD FUSION AND NEWER. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE 2010 MODELS AS WELL. MY POWER STEERING MODULE NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED THE POWER STEERING DOES NOT WORK AND MAKES THE CAR INOPERABLE. THIS WENT OUT ON ME WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE.

THE POWER STEERING ASSIST HAS BEEN GOING OUT INTERMITTINGLY FOR SOME TIME, HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON IT CORRECT ITSELF. TODAY (JUNE 26, 2018) IT HAS FAILED AND WILL NOT CORRECT ITSELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH WHEN THE CAR WAS MOVING AND WHEN IT HAS BEEN PARKED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO FUNCTION AND THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED UP AND WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION.

VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER AT TIMES AND HESITATE UPON ACCELERATION

THE POWERSTEARING ASSIST FAILED WHILE DRIVING ALMOST WRECKED MY CAR IN TRAFFIC...IT'S A OPEN RECALL ON THE 2011-2012 FORD FUSION BUT NOT ON THE 2010

SERVICE ADVANCETRAC MESSAGE POPS UP RANDOMLY ON DASH. POWER STEERING FAILURE OCCURS RANDOMLY, ESPECIALLY WHILE TURNING AT SLOWER SPEEDS, AND IS ACCOMPANIED BY POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE MESSAGE. THE CAR IS VERY HARD TO STEER AT THIS TIME, BUT SO FAR THAT ISSUE IS RESOLVED IF I AM ABLE TO SHUT OFF THE CAR FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTART. THIS STARTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO BUT MOST RECENT WAS 6/20/18.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AS WELL AS CHECK FUEL FILL INLET MESSAGE. OBD CODE SHOWS SMALL EMISSIONS LEAK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL OCCASIONALLY DISAPPEAR ON ITS OWN AND THE CHECK FUEL FILL INLET MESSAGE WILL ALSO GO AWAY, BUT BOTH ALWAYS REAPPEAR EVENTUALLY. THIS CAR HAS THE CAPLESS FUEL INLET.

LUGS NUTS WILL NOT COME OFF

MY FAMILY HAS HAD THIS CAR SINCE IT WAS BRAND NEW WITH THIS PROBLEM REOCCURRING BOTH AT START UP AND DRIVING IN MOTION! MY SON WAS JUST DRIVING DOWN THE STREET WHEN THE STEERING WENT OUT WHILE HE WAS ATTEMPTING TO GO AROUND A CORNER AND ALMOST HIT SEVERAL PEDESTRIANS AND OTHER CARS! THEN IT CAME BACK ON LATER THEN WENT OUT AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH ARE MTN. ROADS WHERE WE LIVE AND ABOUT WENT OFF A CLIFF! I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCE DOING THE SAME THING WITH ME, (A VERY EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONAL DRIVER) DRIVING WITH NEAR MISSES DUE TO SAME THING HAPPENING THEN GOING AWAY WITH NO PROBLEM FOR MONTHS IF NOT YEARS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNREAL THAT THERE ARE THIS MANY COMPLAINTS AND ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND NOTHING DONE TO FIX IT! THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND OTHER YEARS 2011 AND 2012 WITH THE SAME PROBLEM GOT RECALLED EXCEPT FOR THE 2010, ALL WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! IF NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS I WILL BE INCLINED TO MAKE THIS VERY PUBLIC AND HAVE THE RESOURCES TO DO SO! THIS IS NEGLIGENCE ON FORD'S PART AND AND THE NHTSA'S PART FOR NOT ACTING APPROPRIATELY TO THIS WELL KNOWN PROBLEM!

MY CAR HAS A PROBLEM HANGING UP WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. THIS IS MY SECOND TRANSMISSION. FIRST ONE WENT OUT AT 41,000 AND I HAD TO GET A NEW ONE. THE CAR HAS A TOTAL OF 109,000 ON IT AND I THINK THIS TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. IT HANGS UP WHEN YOU ACCELERATE SO I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT HOW I ACCELERATE .SO THAT THE GEARS WILL CHANGE. IT IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT HAS BEEN SLIPPING FOR AT LEAST THE PAST 10,000 MILES, I AM WORRIED THAT IT WILL GO OUT AGAIN. THE LAST TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC IN DALLAS TEXAS. WE ALMOST DIED IN THAT INCIDENT. THE CAR WOULDN'T GO AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. I AM WORRIED THAT THE SAME THING WILL HAPPEN WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. THIS PROBLEM STARTED LAST YEAR IN EARLY PART OF 2017 AND IS ONGOING

TAKATA RECALL ON AIR BAGS IS GOING ON AND ON NO END IN SIGHT. WHEN WILL THEY FINALLY FIX IT?

ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM WENT OUT ON MY 2010 FUSION SE. IT'S BEEN DIAGNOSED AS A RECALL ISSUE FOR THE 2011 AND UP. FORD SOME MANAGED TO GET AROUND THE RECALLING THE 2010'S THE PROBLEM COSTS AROUND 2K TO FIX. I'M UNABLE TO USE MY CAR UNTIL I CAN RAISE THE MONEY TO FUND A REPAIR I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR. THERE ARE OVER 800 COMPLAINTS ON THE 2010 FUSIONS AND A RECALL ON THE FOLLOWING YEAR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM...WHAT GIVES HERE NTHSA? I NEARLY HAD A WRECK WITH THIS ISSUE?

LOSS OF FULL CONTROL OF VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. SERVICE POWER STEERING/SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK WARNING CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO AWAY. I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AS I DO NOT HAVE FULL CONTROL OF STEERING. I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT STRONGARMING THE VEHICLE OFF THE HIGHWAY AFTER LOSS OF POWER STEERING.

REMEDY PART WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AVAILABLE SPRING 2018. I'M STILL WAITING!!! LIVING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA I HAVE BEEN IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WHICH WERE NOT MY FAULT. I HAVE BEEN IN A ACCIDENT WHERE I HAVE BEEN A PASSENGER AND A THE MUSTANG WAS TOTALED BY A DODGE RAM TRUCK RUNNING THE RED LIGHT. IT IS DISTURBING TO ME THAT I'M DRIVING A 2010 FORD FUSION WITH A RECALL AND THE PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. IT IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. PLEASE HELP PUSH FOR THE PART TO BE AVAILABLE AS PROMISED BY THE LETTER RECEIVED DECEMBER 2017. THANK YOU!

TAKATA RECALL I CALLED MY MOORESVILLE, N.C. FORD DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE A REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. IT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE END OF THIS YEAR..2018. MY RECALL LETTER INDICATES THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY WILL PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR AT $30 A DAY AND THE OWNER HAS TO CARRY AND PAY FOR THE INSURANCE ON THE RENTAL VEHICLE. THE RENTAL COMPANY MY FORD DEALER CONTRACTS THROUGH CHEAPEST RENTAL IS $35.00 PER DAY WHICH WOULD LEAVE ME PAYING APPROXIMATELY $140.00 PER MONTH FOR THE RENTAL AND APPROXIMATELY AN EXTRA $50.00 OR MORE A MONTH FOR INSURANCE I AM ALREADY PAYING FOR A AFFECTED VEHICLE PLUS MONTHLY INSURANCE THAT HAS A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE RECALL THAT IS NOT MY FAULT! I AM A SENIOR CITIZEN AND DRIVE MY CAR ON A DAILY BASIS WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN AND LOVED ONES IN MY CAR AND DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE RISK OF DEATH OR INJURY TO ANY OF THEM.. WITH THE AGE OF MY CAR AND THE SUMMER HEAT AND HUMIDITY I DO NOT WANT TO CHANCE THAT! I DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING EXTRA FOR A RENTAL FOR A RECALL PUTTING MY FAMILY IN HARM'S WAY OR EVEN DEATH THAT IS NOT MY FAULT! THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE MADE TO PAY THE ENTIRE COST OF THE RENTAL VEHICLE! IF INDEED YOUR GOAL AND POLICY IS TO MAKE SURE THESE CAR MANUFACTURERS DO THEIR PART TO INSURE MY SAFETY...THEN FORD MOTOR COMPANY NEEDS TO BE TOTALLY ACCOUNTABLE AND PAY EVERYTHING. NONE OF THE COST SHOULD BE PASSED TO THE OWNER OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLE. I CALLED FORD HE

TAKATA RECALL FORD SENT US A LETTER TELLING US TO GO TO OUR FORD DEALER AND THE FORD WAS TO AUTHORIZE THEM TO PROVIDE US A FREE RENTAL CAR; ALL OF WHICH SEEMS TO MEAN THE ISSUE IS VERY SERIOUS. HOWEVER, ALL THE DEALER IS DOING IS TAKING NAMES, ADDRESSES, AND INFORMATION. THEY REFUSE TO TELL US WHEN WE MIGHT GET REPAIR PARTS OR A RENTAL VEHICLE. CAPITAL FORD LINCOLN AND MERCURY OF WILMINGTON (NC)'S SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME THAT THEY COULDN'T "JUST SEND US DOWN TO ENTERPRISE TO GET A CAR." WHEN I ASKED WHY NOT, HE SHRUGGED. FORD HAS BEEN SELLING NEW CARS AND I PRESUME THEY HAVE AIR BAGS IN THEM. ALL OF WHICH MAKES ME FEEL FORD DIDN'T THINK OUR LIVES ARE WORTH DIVERTING PARTS FROM NEW CARS TO FIX THE ONES THEY DROPPED THE BALL ON IN THE FIRST PLACE. WILL YOU PLEASE DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO GET US HELP? IT WOULD SURELY BE APPRECIATED.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THE VEHICLE LOST ELECTRIC STEERING CONTROL AND TWO CODES APPEARED ON THE DASH - SERVICE ADVANCETRAC AND POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING AT 65ISH WHILE COMPLETING A SLOPING TURN ON THE CAPITAL BELTWAY, THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND REQUIRED EXTENSIVE ARM FORCE TO REMAIN IN CONTROL. THE VEHICLE WAS SAFELY MOVED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE.

TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS BEEN 2 YEARS SINCE THIS ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED AND I HAVE YET TO HAVE A DEFINITIVE DATE AS TO WHEN THE ISSUE WILL BE RESOLVED. IT IS PUTTING ME IN A BIND SINCE I HAVE TO TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN AND WIFE IN THE CAR AND HAVE TO USE THE PASSENGER SEAT ON OCCASION. IT IS HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD TAKE OVER 2 YEARS TO RESOLVE.

MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT IN MARCH OF 2016. I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT A RECALL ON THE 2010'S JUST THE 2011 AND 2012'S. WELL HERE IT IS, 2018 AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN... I CANT SEE MYSELF PAYING ANOTHER $1500 FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OUT OF MY CONTROL. SEEMS AS IF IT HAPPENS WHILE THE CAR IS SITTING. I CAN RECALL DRIVING AND A LIGHT CAME ACROSS MY DASH. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE LIGHT MEANT AND I DIDN'T NOTICE ANY CHANGE WITH MY CAR UNTIL THE NEXT MORNING WHEN I TRIED PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. ITS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!!!
