Service brakes, hydraulic, antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip, control unit/moduleDec 18, 2019
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2006-2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln Zephyr and MKZ vehicles. The valves within the ABS Hydraulic Control Units (HCU) may react with brake fluids containing specific corrosion preventative additives. This reaction may cause the valves to not close properly.

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will flush the brake system with DOT 4 fluid and install a new brake fluid reservoir cap. In addition, the HCU will be tested to detect a possible stuck valve condition, replacing the HCU as necessary. All services will be performed free of charge. The recall began April 1, 2021. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 19S54.

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install new replacement mats, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Ford's customer service at 1-800-392-3673.

TAKATA RECALL: IN JULY 2016 (2016) I WAS NOTIFIED ABOUT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG RECALL BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY. I HAVE TELEPHONED MY LOCAL DEALER A COUPLE TIMES SINCE WITHOUT "LUCK" THAT I CAN GET THE REPAIR. I'VE CONTACTED FORD MOTOR THROUGH THEIR CHAT LINE AND BEEN TOLD THE SAME THING THE LETTER SAID, "YOU'LL BE NOTIFIED". I YEAR (ALMOST) LATER I STILL LIVE IN FEAR WHEN SOMEONE HAS TO RIDE IN MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT! THIS IS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS AND SHOULDN'T HAPPEN IN THE GOOD OLD USA. I HAVE A FRIEND WITH AN ACCORD (HONDA) WHO GOT HER CAR FIXED WITHIN ABOUT 4 MONTHS (SAME PROBLEM) AND ANOTHER WHO HAS AN INFINITI WHO GOT THEIR CAR FIXED (SAME PROBLEM) IN ABOUT 6 MONTHS. PRETTY MUCH SAYS, "DON'T BUY AMERICAN" IN MY ESTIMATION! AFTER 1 YEAR, I THINK FORD SHOULD START COMPENSATING PEOPLE THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SERVICE BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS THIS INCONVENIENT IT IS DANGEROUS. NEWS REPORTS SAY THE SITUATION IS ESPECIALLY BAD FOR HOT / HUMID CLIMATES...WELL, THAT'S JUST WHERE I LIVE!
