2012 Ford Fusion complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, BUT THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING ABILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED PLAZA FORD (1701 BELAIR RD, BEL AIR, MD 21014, (410) 838-3100) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED IN 2015 PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V340000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

NOTE: MILEAGE ON VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 106,000 MILES. CAR REGULARLY SERVICED AND WELL MAINTAINED. WENT TO THE STORE IN THE VEHICLE. UPON GETTING BACK IN THE VEHICLE IT DID NOT WANT TO TURN ON. AFTER A WHILE THE VEHICLE DID TURN ON AND AS I WAS PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE WHILE IN THE PARKING LOT, AND A BUNCH OF ERROR MALFUNCTION MESSAGES/CODES APPEARED ON THE DASH UPON DRIVING. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME HARD TO/ WOULD NOT TURN UPON DRIVING. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE OUT OF HARMS WAY. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD QUITE POSSIBLY HARM/KILL LIVES. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAS NO SERVICE ISSUES AND I HAD NO WARNING.

I HAD A LEAK UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR, STAINING MY DRIVEWAY. EVEN AFTER HAVING THE PTU REPLACED, I STILL HAD A LEAK. I ONLY REALIZED IT WAS LEAKING WHEN I HAD TO PARK IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION IN MY DRIVEWAY. I BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER GARAGE. FOUND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION TUBE WERE RUSTED, THUS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE GARAGE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION TUBES, AND REPLACED ALL THE FLUID.

POWER STEERING MAKES A SCRAPING NOISE WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. SOMETIMES IT GETS HARDER TO TURN AND THERE ARE NOISES ASSOCIATED WITH IT. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING WHEN TURNING. I AM AFRAID THAT POWER STEERING WILL FAIL ON THAT CAR LEAVING ME ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR EVEN PUT ME AT RISK FOR AN ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL - FORD DEALERSHIP HAS FAILED TO FIX THIS CARS AIRBAG. I'VE MADE NUMEROUS APPTS THAT HAVE EITHER BEEN CANCELLED OR FORGOTTEN BY THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO UNAVAILABLE PARTS, OR HUMAN ERROR. IVE BEEN TOLD THE PARTS WERE ON ORDER, THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE, THERE WERE FAR TOO MANY RECALLS AND THE DEALERSHIP COULDNT MERT THE DEMAND, AND ALSO COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN ALTOGETHER! DEALERSHIP WAS SUPPOSED TO CALL US TO FIX THIS AFTER FAILED APPOINTMENTS AND NEVER FOLLOWED THROUGH. MY CAR WAS JUST UPDATED WITH A $300 VALUE LOSS BECAUSE OF IT. THIS CAR IS COMPLETELY PAID OFF.

NO

WHEN I STARTED MY 2012 FORD FUSION AS NORMAL, THE POWER STEERING DIDN'T WORK AND THE WARNING LIGHTS "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" AND "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" APPEARED ON MY DASH BOARD. I HAVE HAD THE RECALL WORK DONE PREVIOUSLY BUT APPARENTLY THE PROBLEM WAS NOT PROPERLY ADDRESSED AS I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRING. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE FOR OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE OTHER THAN PAYING RIDICULOUS MONEY TO REPAIR IT MYSELF, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING ERROR?!?

THE "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" AND "SERVICE POWER STEERING" WARNINGS SHOWED UP WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE BUT WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR AND TURNING IT BACK ON, THE POWER STEERING WARNING CHANGED TO "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" AND THERE WAS TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A FORD DEALER AND SERVICED UNDER THE RECALL 15V340000. TWO WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE SAME INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE TWO SERVICE WARNINGS SHOWED UP AGAIN. LIKE THE FIRST TIME, AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON, THERE WAS TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICING BUT THIS TIME THE CAR'S COMPUTER APPARENTLY PRODUCED CODES OUTSIDE OF THE REALM OF THE RECALL WHILE STILL AFFECTING THE SAME SYSTEM. THE REPAIR COST FOR THE SECOND VISIT WAS ABOUT $1,500. CAR MILEAGE IS ONLY 95000.

HIT A DEER AND THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. MOVING AT 45 MPH SOMETIMES ON START UP STEERING ASSIST DOESN'T COME ON - PARKED TODAY (05.29.19) ADVANCETRAC LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR IS MAKING GROWLING TYPE NOISES.- DRIVING PARKING LOTS AND STREETS

CAR WILL STALL OUT AND GETS NO POWER PERIODICALLY. SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, ON INTERSTATE, ETC. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. WILL NOT SHOW A CODE WHEN TAKEN TO REPAIR SHOP. HAVE ALREADY HAD THROTTLE BODY REPLACED, FRONT O2 SENSOR. CAR ONLY HAS 62,000 MILES ON IT.

THE POWER STEERING ASSIST ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED UPON STARTING MY CAR. THE NEXT DAY THE SERVICE ADVANCETRAC ERROR MESSAGE ALSO APPEARED. I DID NOT HAVE ANY PRIOR ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING. THE FORD DEALERSHIP STATED THAT MY PARTICULAR CAR WAS NOR UNDER RECALL, SINCE I HAVE A 3.5L MOTOR. THE ADVISES ME THAT A NEW EPAS GEAR WAS NEEDED AND THE REPAIR WAS ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT $2000.

BRAKES BEGAN TO FEEL SPONGY. I HAD A SMALL ACCIDENT WHEN I COULD NOT BRAKE CAUSING DAMAGE TO ANOTHER'S CAR. REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS, HAD THE SYSTEM BLED BUT NOW I HAVE NO BRAKES. I HAVE NO BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL. REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER, FRONT CALIPE, BRAKE BOOSTER, AND BRAKE STILL HAVE NO BRAKE PRESSURE AT ALLL.

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN CAUSING ME TO BARELY MISS RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF A 18 WHEELER. LUCKILY I WASN'T FAR FROM MY DAUGHTERS HOUSE. I MADE IT THERE BUT COULD NOT PARK. CAR HAD TO BE PUSHED STRAIGHT BACK INTO A SPOT. NOW THE STEERING WHEEL IS COMPLETELY LOCKED. CAR WILL START WILL MOVE STRAIGHT FORWARD OR BACK. CAN NOT TURN THE WHEEL AT ALL

I WENT TO STIVERS FORD ABOUT THE AIR BAG BE TO THE END OF JANUARY AND THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY THE MECHANIC TOOK MY RECALL INFORMATION SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME AS SOON AS THE NEW BAGS GOT IN NEVER HEARD FROM THEM I CALLED EVERY MONTH ONLY TO BE TOLD NOTHING CAME IN YET SO I CALLED FORD CUSTOMERS SERVICE THEY HAD ME ON HOLD THE MECHANIC IN MONTGOMERY STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECORD OF ME EVER BEING THERE. CUSTOMER SERVICE LEFT ME ON THE PHONE WITH THE MECHANIC TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT SHE HUNG UP THE PHONE I GAVE THE MECHANIC MY FIRST AND LAST NAME THEN HE REPEATED BACK TO ME MY FIRST AND LAST NAME WITH MY ADDRESS KEEP IN MIND HE HAD ALL OF MY INFORMATION IN THE SYSTEM THE WHOLE TIME. SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR FRIDAY MAY 31 2019. THERE IS A FAULTY TIRE LIGHT ON THAT WON'T GO AWAY EVEN WHEN I HAD THE TIRE CHECKED THE CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION DURING THE GREEN LIGHT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE 🔧 LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE FLASHING FAULTY TIRE LIGHT . I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE THEN RESTARTED THE CAR AND DROVE HOME I WAS VERY AFRAID BECAUSE THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE MOVING PRETTY FAST I WAS BLESSED TO NOT BE HIT FROM BEHIND. NEXT DAY DROVE THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP. EVERY THING WAS WORKING FINE THEY RAN A DIAGNOSIS SHOWING THE THROTTLE WAS STUCK AND WOULD NOT RESET SO IT IS STUCK.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

I WAS DRIVING AS NORMAL, WENT TO PICK UP MY SIBLINGS TO GO SEE OUR DAD. A COUPLE MINUTES AFTER DRIVING FROM GETTING MY SIBLINGS, MY CAR MESSAGE CENTER SAID SERVICE POWER STEERING AND SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT ANY STEERING PROBLEMS. I TURNED MY CAR OFF WHEN I GOT TO MY DAD'S AND WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON TO LEAVE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED AND MY MESSAGE CENTER SAID TO SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW AND SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. 3 DAYS LATER I HAVE A LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING.

POWER STEERING RECALL- MY SON WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN HIS POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THIS WAS RECENTLY FIXED BY THE RECALL IN AUG 2017, AND IT WENT OUT AGAIN. HE NEARLY WAS HIT DUE TO THE CAR VEERING WHEN HE WAS DRIVING. THIS NEEDS ADDRESSED AND FIXED AGAIN!! HE CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY $1500+ TO GET THIS FIXED AGAIN!

WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET, THE ABS LIGHT, THE RED BRAKE LIGHT, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. BRAKE PEDAL ENGAGEMENT REQUIRES MORE TRAVEL TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LINCOLN DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE DEALER NOTED THAT THE ABS MODULE FAILED. AFTER A CLOSE INSPECTION, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ABS MODULE HAD FAILED DUE TO BRAKE FLUID CONTAMINATION. THE ABS MODULE WAS REPLACED, BUT I'M CONCERNED MORE WITH THE APPARENT CAUSE, WHICH APPEARS TO BE THE DEGRADATION OF THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (HCU), WHERE THE ABS MODULE ATTACHES TO. THE ABS MODULE SHOULD HAVE ZERO FLUID CONTAMINATION. IT WOULD SEEM THAT THE REPLACEMENT ABS MODULE WILL FAIL FROM THE FLUID INGRESS CONTAMINATION AGAIN. PLEASE REVIEW ATTACHED PHOTOS AND RECEIPT. THANK YOU.

MY SON WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN HIS POWER STEERING WENT OUT. WE CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD, AND THE PLUG FOR THE POWER STEERING IS MISSING. I'M SO GLAD HE OR ANYONE ELSE WASN'T INJURED.

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING OUR 2012 FORD FUSION & PICKING UP OUR 9YR OLD DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL ONE DAY, I FOUND MYSELF IN A SCARY SITUATION JUST A FEW YARDS FROM MY DRIVEWAY. WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD BEING A TURN OFF OF A 4-LANE HIGHWAY, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE THAT TURN THAT DAY, THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT RESULTING IN IT BEING VERY DIFFICULT TO MANUVER THE TURN LANDING MY DAUGHTER & I OFF THE ROAD & IN THE DITCH AFTER GETTING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY FOUND THE PROBLEM RESULTED FROM A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE THAT NEEDED REPAIRING HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP ALSO DISCOVERED THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED WHEN OWNED BY PREVIOUS OWNER. THE RECALL PERFORMED BEFORE HAD FAILED & WAS NOT A SOLUTION AS THE REPAIR NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED AGAIN. THE PROBLEM WAS, WHEN THE DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME ABOUT THE RECALL, I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THE RECALL BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER SAID WHEN THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED THE FIRST TIME, A 90 DAY WARRANTY WAS PLACED ON THE RECALL THAT IF IT NEEDED PERFORMING AGAIN, I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR COST. MY CONFUSION IS, IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THE CAR BECAUSE OF A SAFETY ISSUE DISCOVERED & YOU'RE NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL & TO BRING IT IN TO BE REPAIRED... SHOULDN'T THAT REPAIR ALSO BE A SOLUTION & IF SO, WHY IS THERE A WARRANTY PLACED ON THE SOLUTION? MY UNDERSTANDING, A SOLUTION HAD NOT BEEN FOUND, RESULTING IN THE MANUFACTURER KNOWING BEFORE THE RECALL WOULD NEED TO BE PERFORMED AGAIN AND AGAIN COSTING THEM A GREAT LOSS. AT

I INFORMED MY FORD DEALER DURING AN AIR BAG RECALL THAT I WAS ALSO EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING ON THE CAR. REGARDLESS IF THE CAR WAS MOVING OR STOPPED, TURNING THE STEERING FROM THE 12 O'CLOCK POSITION EITHER RIGHT OR LEFT, IT WOULD TRY TO "JUMP" TO THE 10 OR 2 O'CLOCK POSITION. IT WAS DISTURBING ENOUGH THAT MY WIFE WOULD NO LONGER DRIVE THE CAR. AFTER DIAGNOSIS, THE DEALER INFORMED ME THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE POWER STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY, THE REPAIR COST WOULD EXCEED 2000 DOLLARS. FORD HAS HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING ON THESE CARS THAT THE NHTSA ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO (15S18). THE PROBLEM IS SEVERE ENOUGH THAT FORD HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THE POWER STEERING ASSEMBLY TO 150,000 MILES (15N01) MY CAR HAS 82,000 MILES ON IT. THE WARRANTY ONLY WORKS IF CERTAIN DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES POP UP DURING DIAGNOSIS. SINCE MY CAR DID NOT SUFFER A COMPLETE FAILURE I WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. IF YOU READ THROUGH THE NHTSA COMPLAINTS, MANY CONSUMERS HAD COMPLETE POWER STEERING FAILURES BUT ALSO DID NOT MEET FORDS REQUIREMENTS FOR WARRANTY REPAIR! IF YOU VIEW NHTSA COMPLAINT SECTION ON THE 2012 FUSION. THERE ARE A TOTAL OF 1601 COMPLAINTS AS IF THIS WRITING FOR THIS VEHICLE - ALMOST 50% DEAL WITH JUST THE STEERING! THE NHTSA HAS COMPLETELY LET FORD OFF THE HOOK ON THIS ISSUE. INSTEAD OF INSURING THE PUBLIC SAFETY, THE NHTSA HAS ALLOWED FORD TO CREATE A NEW INCOME STREAM. IS THE NHTSA WAITING FOR A FORD OWNER TO LOSE CONTR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2012. CURRENTLY, MY HORN DOES NOT WORK AS WELL AS OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OF MY CAR. ANOTHER EXAMPLE, WOULD BE MY SEAT BELT, WHICH HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE.THE SERVICE PROVIDER AT FORD TOLD ME TO LET MY CAR RUN A LITTLE,. AND THEN IT WOULD WORK. SO FAR, STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. AT THIS TIME, WITH MY HORN NOT WORKING, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN INTO 3 ACCIDENTS THUS FAR, I HAVE CONTACTED THE FORD CEO AND KAREN JOHNSON, ANOTHER EXECUTIVE OF FORD AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM EITHER ONE OF THEM. I NEED MY CAR FIXED AS ALL THESE ISSUES ARE SAFETY RELATED AND EACH DAY THAT I DRIVE WITH THE CONCERNS, PUT MYSELF AND MY FAMILY IN DANGER.

2012 FORD FUSION POWER STEERING FAILURE ALMOST SET OFF RECALLED PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WITH YOUNG PASSENGER I. FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I WAS MAKING A U-TURN DOING ABOUT 7 MPH WHEN I LOST POWER STEERING AND NEARLY HIT THE CAR PULLING OUT FROM THE SERVICE STATION.

LOST POWER STEERING ON 4/20/2019. THE VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALER AS OF TODAY 4/22/2019 FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL BUT, DELAET IS SAYING FORD MAY NOT COVER THE POWER STEERING RECALL IF DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE DOESN'T PRODUCE CERTAIN COSTS. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! LOSS OF POWER STEERING + FAULTY AIRBAG = SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. ANY REPORT OF POWER STEERING LOSS SHOULD = SAFETY RECALL.
