2010 Ford Fusion complaints

I WAS SENT A LETTER THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN THE REPLACEMENTS WERE AVAILABLE

WHEN DRIVING BRAKES BECAME VERY WEAK ALMOST TO THE FLOOR, WE REPLACED THE BRAKES WITH STILL NO GOOD PEDAL. THEN WE REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER, ONCE IT WAS REPLACED IT WOULD NOT BLEED, AND STILL NO BRAKES. WE CALLED THE FORD DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THE FUSIONS WERE DIFFICULT TO BLEED ONCE MASTER CYLINDERS WERE REPLACED. WE SENT IT OUT FOR DIAGNOSTICS AT THE FORD DEALER AND WERE CHARGED $98.00. THEY CALLED AND SAID THE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE BLEED BEFORE THEY COULD GIVE US AN EXACT ANSWER OF WHAT WAS WRONG AND THE WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL $100. THEY CALLED A FEW DAYS LATER AND SAID IT NEEDED A MASTER CYLINDER. WE TOLD THEM WE JUST HAD REPLACED IT. THEY SAID MAYBE IT WAS A FAULTY PART, SO WE PICKED UP THE CAR EXCHANGED THE PART AND STILL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. CALLED BACK TO THE FORD DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE ONLY OTHER THING IT COULD BE WAS THE HCU AND THAT WAS ABOUT $1600 TO CHANGE. SO 2 TOW BILLS, AND $200 LATER WE STILL HAVE NO BRAKES. AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH WE HAVE SEEN THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE FORD FUSIONS AND THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL ! LOSING BRAKES WHILE DRIVING IS DANGEROUS ! I WOULD LIKE A FORD REP TO CONTACT ME !

WE WERE DRIVING THE CAR THIS MORNING AROUND 5:30 AM GOING AROUND 50 MPH AND THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE NOW. YOU COULD BARELY TURN THE WHEEL GOING AT THAT SPEED. DASH SAYS SERVICE POWER STEERING BUT SHOWS NO CODES ONCE HOOKED UP.

POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT WARNING LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO WHILE I WAS DRIVING, TURNED CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND IT DISAPPEARED. THE NEXT DAY IT REAPPEARED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND NEVER TURNED BACK OFF, LUCKILY WAS DOWN THE STREET FROM MY HOME & WASN'T IN DANGER OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. NOW ALONG WITH THAT WARNING LIGHT CAME SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, PAID $129 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS GOING TO COST ME NEARLY $2,000 TO GET MY CAR FIXED. WHY WAS THE RECALL FOR THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE ONLY FOR 2011-2013 MODELS OF THE SAME EXACT CAR WITH THE SAME EXACT PARTS?!?!!?!?

COMPLAINT INVOLVING FORD FUSION TIRE BOLTS AND LUG NUTS (2010 MODEL). THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE TIRE BOLTS BREAK (3 ON THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE AND 2 ON THE FRONT LEFT SIDE). THE VEHICLE FRONT TIRE BOLTS AND LUG NUTS WERE FIXED BY THE ORIGINAL FORD DEALER FOR THE A RECALL FOR THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE RIGHT AFTER WE PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 2010. WE'VE RECENTLY NOTICED A DIFFERENCE DRIVING (BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY) AND TOOK IT IN FOR NORMAL MAINTENANCE AND THE EXACT SAME ISSUE HAS AROSE AGAIN IN THE EXACT SAME LOCATION. FORD DEALERSHIP DOESN'T HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL RECALL ON THIS SAME ISSUE, HOWEVER WE'VE READ THAT THERE IS A LAWSUIT IN MI REGARDING SWOLLEN LUG NUTS AND WONDER IF THIS IS RELATED. FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE COLLECTED ONCE OUR REPAIR IS PAID FOR.

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY , MOVING ABOUT 50 MPH THE CHECK POWER STEERING AND SERVICE ADVANCTRAX CAME OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I THEN LOST ALL POWER STEERING. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I AM NOT ABLE TO GET IT REPAIRED DUE TO COST. 12/10/17. 85,000 MILES

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE INTERIM RECALL NOTICE DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE REMEDY AND PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED. THE DEALER (TERREBONNE FORD LINCOLN, 339 ST CHARLES ST, HOUMA, LA 70360, (985) 876-5100) STATED THAT THE PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING OF 2018. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE SERVICE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING & THE POWER STEERING WAS GONE, I COULD HARDLY TURN THE WHEEL! THANKFULLY IT DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, BUT NOW I'M ABOUT TO INCUR SOME HEFTY EXPENSES TO HAVE IT REPAIRED!

TAKATA RECALL - MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN UNDER A SAFETY RECALL FOR 18 MONTHS AND THE MANUFACTURER HAS STILL NOT PROVIDED A FIX AND HAS NO INFORMATION ON WHEN A FIX WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. THE DATE BELOW FOR "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" IS THE ORIGINAL RECALL DATE ON MY VEHICLE.

DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT HEATER MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING SEAT LINING MATERIAL TO IGNITE AND BURN HOLE IN SEAT LEATHER AND UNDERLYING MATERIAL. ALSO SCORCHED DRIVER'S COAT AND PRODUCED ACRID SMOKE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET. DRIVER WAS WEARING HEAVY WINTER COAT AND SO DID NOT FEEL THE HEAT IMMEDIATELY.

THERE WAS A RECALL SENT OUT ON DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS BUT FORD MOTOR COMPANY IS AT THE COMPLETE MERCY OF TAKATA AND REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING THIS CAR. *TR

I WAS BRAKING ACROSS ROUGH (EXPERIENCE 1: MARCH 2017) AND ICY (EXPERIENCE 2: DECEMBER 2017) TERRAIN WHEN MY ABS REACTED TO THE SITUATION. AFTER BOTH EXPERIENCES, MY BRAKES BECAME "SQUISHY" AND I WAS UNABLE TO GET A COMPLETE IMMEDIATE STOP. IT TOOK LONGER TO BRAKE, AND I HAD TO PUSH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO COME TO A COMPLETE HALT. AFTER PUTTING THE CAR INTO PARK, AND TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN, THE SQUISHY BRAKES REMAINED. THE ONLY WAY TO GET A FULL COMPLETE STOP NOW IS TO PUMP THE BRAKES CONTINUOUSLY AS I AM BRAKING. IT SEEMS THAT WHEN THE ABS PUMP GOES OFF, THE OPEN VALVE GETS STUCK OPEN CAUSING THE BRAKE FLUID TO CIRCULATE THROUGH THE PUMP. PUMPING THE PEDAL HELPS, BUT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

AS WE DROVE OVER THE OVERPASS, SLOWING TO COME TO A STOP SIGN ONTO THE FOUR LANE INTO TOWN, OUR CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED IN THE DRIVING LANE. WE WERE LATER TOLD THE PTU ASSEMBLY LOCKED UP INTERNALLY, MAKING THE CAR IMMEDIATELY UNMOVABLE FORWARD NOR BACKWARDS UNTIL REPLACED. NO HISTORY NOR SYMPTOMS OF ISSUES BEFORE THIS. IT WOULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO A LARGE ACCIDENT IN THE HEAVY TRAFFIC, IF IT HAD OCCURRED EARLIER IN THE DAY AS IT COULD NOT BE MOVED, NOR HAD WE ANY SIGNS AT THE TIME. WE WERE STUCK IN DRIVING LANE LATE IN THE EVENING, WAITING ON A TOW TRUCK TO HAUL IT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED IT, AT OUR EXPENSE, WITH THE MECHANIC, NOTING HE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL OF HIS OWN. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL NOR EGRESS FOR US TO RESOLVE THIS ANY OTHER WAY. WE HAVE THE PAYMENT AND SERVICE ORDER AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW. THIS IS QUITE DISTURBING, AS IT WAS OVER $1800 OUT OF POCKET FOR JUST THIS REPAIR, WHICH I FOUND WAS A MORE COMMON ISSUE THAN WAS PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. I FOUND OUR THAT THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT FOR ONLY CERTAIN PLANTS, ALTHOUGH OTHERS NOTED THE SAME ISSUES AS WELL. TO KNOW THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE, BUT ONLY IN CERTAIN PLANTS IS A CONCERN, AS THEY KNOW OF THE ISSUE AND HAZARDS OF IT, BUT DID NOT FEEL IT PERTINENT TO RELAY THIS TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC WHO USED THEIR PRODUCT, AT THEIR EXPENSE, NOT KNOWING OF RISKS. I JUST FOUND OUT OF THIS AVENUE TODAY TO HELP OTHERS KNOW OF THIS AND TAKE ACTION TO AVOID FURTHER ISSUES AND SAFET

FORD NOTIFIED ME OF A RECALL ON MY 2010 FORD FUSION CONCERNING RF AIRBAG IN JULY, 1916. HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM THEM SINCE. LOCAL DEALER CANNOT HELP.

ME AND MY DAUGHTER WERE ON THE WAY TO GO CHRISTMAS SHOPPING AND A WARNING SIGN CAME ON WITH A CAUTION SOUND SAYING POWER STEERING SERVICE NOW AND NOT EVEN 2 MINUTES LATER AS WE PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME SO TIGHT I COULDN'T TURN IT TO PARK AND WAS STRANDED AT A WALMART. I THANK GOD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING A NORMAL SPEED. THIS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS FORD! I SEE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND I HOPE THIS WILL BE FINANCIALLY COVERED BY YOUR COMPANY EVEN THOUGH I DON'T SEE THE RECALL ON MY 2010 BUT IT'S HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE OTHER YEAR MODELS 🤔

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A MAIN HIGHWAY, THE "POWER ASSIST STEERING FAULT" WARNING CAME ON AND I WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. I WAS FORCED TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. I AM LUCKY THAT THIS DID NOT OCCUR WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

MY CAR IS PART OF THE AIR BAG RECALL, WHICH WAS ISSUED OVER A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED THAT A REPLACEMENT PART IS AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS SERIOUS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED A DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING SINCE THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS BEING MADE AVAILABLE.

POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE IN THE MESSAGE CENTER WHEN BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY ON TO THE ROAD. POWER STEERING FAILED BUT WAS ABLE TO PULL BACK INTO DRIVEWAY. TURNED CAR OFF AND RETURNED LATER AND THE ERROR WAS GONE WHEN RESTARTED THE CAR. HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE 11/25/2017. ALSO WHILE DRIVING SERVICE ADVANCETRAC MESSAGE APPEARED. THIS WAS BEFORE THE SECOND POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE OCCURRED. TOOK TO THE FORD DEALER TODAY BUT SINCE THE CODES WERE GONE FROM THE MESSAGE CENTER THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. TOLD TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK TO DEALER IF THE MESSAGE HAPPENED AGAIN BUT IF I HAVE NO POWER STEERING THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE.

TAKATA RECALL THE RECALL WAS ISSUED OVER ONE YEAR AGO AND NO REMEDY IS STILL AVAILABLE. IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS, I WOULD WANT MY AIRBAGS TO WORK PROPERLY. WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG FOR FORD TO FIX IT'S CUSTOMER'S VEHICLE AIRBAGS? DO THEY NOT CARE ABOUT OUR SAFETY OR WANT US TO CONTINUE BUYING THEIR CARS?

DROVE THE VEHICLE OUT FOR LUNCH AND WAS JUST FINE. AFTER LUNCH, I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND WENT ON TO DRIVE BACK TO WORK. THAN MY STEERING WHEEL COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING AND THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. " SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" . LUCKILY THERE WAS NO CAR WHEN I BRAKED AND JUST MINOR HIT THE CURB. SO I TRIED MY BEST TO DRIVE IT OUT OF TRAFFIC AND MADE IT TO A PARKING LOT. READ SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THIS POWER STEERING, AND LOOKED LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD CAUSE I USE TOLLWAYS AND HIGHWAYS TO GET TO WORK AND HOME, IF THIS HAPPENED DURING THAT TIME, I MIGHT NOT BE THE ONE TYPING THIS TO YOU GUYS. HOPEFULLY THIS GETS FIXED SO OTHER PEOPLE DON'T FACE THIS SITUATION.

THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD RUPTURE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE SUPPLEMENTAL FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. THIS DEFECT REPORT IS IN RESPONSE TO TAKATA DIRS 16E-042, 16E-043, 16E-044.

IN MY 2010 FORD FUSION SPORT, MY BRAKES GO SOFT AND SPONGY ANY TIME THE ABS GETS ACTIVATED. AFTERWARD, I HAVE TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO GET ANY BRAKING. IF I PUMP THE BRAKES SEVERAL DOZEN TIMES, IT COMES BACK TO NORMAL, BUT THE MAIN PROBLEM IS WHEN IT UNEXPECTEDLY GOES SPONGY WHILE DRIVING. IT IS A COLLOSAL SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE HAD THE DEALERSHIP ATTEMPT TO FIX THIS SEVERAL TIMES BY BLEEDING THE BRAKE LINE AND CHANGING OUT ALL OF THE BRAKE FLUID, ALL TO NO AVAIL. ON SEVERAL FORD FORUMS, IT IS ALLEGEDLY A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT. I AM GOING TO HAVE IT REPLACED, BUT FORD HASN'T SEEN FIT TO ISSUE A RECALL YET.

AFTER STARTING THE CAR A NOTICE CAME ON THE MESSAGE CENTER THAT SAID A STEERING FAULT OCCURRED. AS I DROVE AWAY THE POWER ASSIST WAS NON EXISTENT AND IT TOOK ALL THE STRENGTH I HAD TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND RESTARTED THE CAR THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. NOW I WORRY IT WILL REOCCUR WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEED OR TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION.

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN APPROX. 2 YEARS SINCE I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE INFORMING ME OF A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION CONCERNING MY AIR BAGS. AS OF THIS 12/07/ 2017 I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION CORRECTED. FORD IS UNABLE TO ADDRESS THIS RECALL BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE NECESSARY PARTS. I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY I WANT MY AIR BAG RECALL COMPLETED AND MY CAR EQUIPPED WITH SAFE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016 AND AS OF DECEMBER 2017 WE ARE STILL BEING TOLD THAT NONE OF THE DEALERS HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I WOULD SAY THAT QUALIFIES AS FAILING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM IN A TIMELY MANNER, BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW THESE THINGS ARE MEASURED.

TAKATA RECALL - SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 16S26/NHTSA RECALL 16V-384 . RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE DATED 7-2016. HAVE MADE MANY ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS REPLACED SINCE I RECEIVED THE NOTICE UNTIL THE PRESENT. I KEEP GETTING THE SAME ANSWER - PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE YET TO REPAIR THE AIRBAGS. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF AND I AM STILL WAITING. I CALLED AGAIN YESTERDAY AND RECEIVED THE SAME ANSWER. SAFETY IS MY PRIMARY CONCERN. I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY ARE ALLOWED TO DRAG THIS OUT THIS LONG, WHEN THIS COULD RESULT IN INJURIES OR EVEN DEATH. HOW CAN I GET THIS RESOLVED NOW?

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, ON A CITY STREET, I NOTICED A LIGHT COME ON IN MY DASH ABOUT POWER STEERING FAULTY OR SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE. AS I TURNED IN THE DRIVEWAY OF MY HOME, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS EXTRA HARD TO TURN. IT HAPPENED A COUPLE TIMES PRIOR TO THIS BUT I TURNED CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED. THIS TIME IT WILL NOT CORRECT ITSELF BY RESTARTING CAR. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN CAR IN 4 MONTHS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE,ALTHOUGH I AM STILL PAYING ON THIS CAR. I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE POWER STEERING FAILING ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR. I'M TO SCARED TO DRIVE IT NOW BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF TRYING TO GET IT TO THE DEALERSHIP.

WAS DRIVING 2010 FUSION WHEN FRONT RIGHT TIRE WENT FLAT. POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY STOPPED WORKING, BUT WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC AND PULL OVER. AFTER GETTING CAR TOWED HOME, PUT COMPUTER ON CAR. GAVE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR 1 & 2 MALFUNCTION CODE. DEALERSHIP STATES ELECTRIC STEERING RACK NEEDS REPLACED BUT RECALLS DID NOT COVER 2010, BUT COVERED 2011 THROUGH 2014 FOR SAME ISSUE. LUCKILY, NO COLLISION OCCURRED. SERIOS SAFETY ISSUE!

TAKATA RECALL--I HAVE RECEIVED TWO NOTICES ABOUT RECALL AND HAVE BEEN TO MY DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY TELL ME EACH TIME THAT THEY HAVE TRIED BUT CANNOT GET THE PARTS FOR REPLACEMENT OF AIRBAGS UNDER RECALL. CAN YOU SEND THEM DIRECTLY TO ME?

I TOOK MY 2010 FORD FUSION INTO CROSS ROADS FORD IN SHELBY NC - TELEPHONE NUMBER 704-482-6791 FOR THE GAS TANK RECALL IN JANUARY 2017. THE RECALL IS NUMBER 15534. THE DEALORSHIP SAID THAT THEY DID THE RECALL BUT I CONTINUED TO SMELL FUEL VAPORS. IN THE MEANTIME CLASSIC FORD HAS BEEN PURCHASED BY CLASSIC FORD AND THE SERVICE MANAGER, [XXX] IS TELLING US THAT THIS IS MY PROBLEM AND THAT CLASSIC IS NOT RESPOSNILBLE FOR CROSS ROADS MAINTENANCE ISSUES. I CONTACTED CROSS ROADS FORD AGAIN SEVERAL MONTHS LATER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD ALREADY PERFORMED THE RECALL AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME TO HAVE THEM TO CHECK THE ISSUE AGAIN. I TOOK MY CAR TO EARL TINDOL FORD GASTONIA NC O N NOVEMBER 28 AND SERVICE REP THAT THE VALVE ON THE GAS TANK WAS APPARENTLY NOT FIXED OR FIXED PROPERLY. I CALLED THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY CUSTOMER SUPPORT ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28 TO SEE IF THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH THE ISSUE AND I WAS DIRECTED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP (CLASSIC FORD) THAT ORGINALY PERFORMED THE RECALL. I CONTACTED [XXX] AT CLASSIC FORD ON NOVEMBER 28 AND HE SAID TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN AND THEY WOULD LOOK AT THE ISSUE. I WAS NOTIFIED ON NOVEMBER 30 THAT THE VALVE IS APPARENTLY NOT WORKING CORRECTLY AND THAT THIS WAS A NON COVERED CHARGE SINCE THE RECALL WAS ALREADY PERFORMED. I PERCEIVE THAT THIS IS A BAD SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE GASOLINE VAPOR SMELL AND THE VEHICLE COULD IGNITE. I FEEL THAT MY CAR SHOULD BE FIXED AT NO CHARGE BECAUSE I HAVE CONTINUED TO SMELL GASOLINE EVEN AFTER THE RECALL. I
