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.

Service brakes, Nov 10, 2021
we've had this vehicle at a ford dealership for 5 months to get the recall work done. the car reacts exactly as the recall is issued for, limited braking on a soft pedal but will stop. The dealer says their computer will not communicate with the car. They've exhausted all tries and Ford will not ship the part, an abs hcu, unless this communication verifies that it is the issue. Since it's all ford related and it's clear on our part what the problem is, our complaint is the company is trying to get away from fixing this serious problem by throwing up walls to hurdle. we've allready incurred significant expense to fix the issue prior to the recall, so it appears they don't want to reimburse those costs by fixing the vehicle. they just need to ship the part to the Helena Montana dealerhip and let them fix the car immediately.

This car has been taken to supposedly have the brake fluid flushed, changed and tested for not needing the ABS replaced. When picking the car up was not given any paperwork at all. The brake problem did not go away and the additional brake travel it needs to stop still exists. When I called the service manager for dealership who unless I said "don't you need my info?" would not have gotten it, never had the service agent dealing with my car call back at all. When trying to speak to Ford itself on social media, was ignored. My car has been to 2 other mechanics within 2 months, and barely 2 months after this supposed recall work was done. When doing a diagnosis for issues not related to recall, stated how my brake fluid was dirty and needed changing, when taking it to get tires replaced and totally different mechanic told me my brake fluid was really dirty, contaminated. How can all of this be if it was worked on? Why is my life not worthy enough to properly fix my car and have care? I have all of this documented. I want my brake fluid flushed, changed and want the ABS valve repaired because the "test" is wrong. Also want it to be my choice of dealership for it to go to properly be fixed.

2008 Ford Fusion was recalled by Ford because of an anti-lock brake system failure. The first Safety Recall Notice 19S54 was issued in 2019. We got notification of the recall from ford in early 2020. The notification clearly stated and was confirmed by a call to Ford Corporate and our Ford Dealer Park Ford of Mahopac NY that parts for the repair were not available and that we would be informed when they do become available. We were informed that parts were available and we brought the car in for two recall repairs. A recall to replace the Driver side airbag was Completed but not for the Anti-lock brake system. Instead they ran a test on the system and a procedure to try to fix the issue without having to replace parts. This procedure rendered the car unsafe to drive because the brake pedal now needs to be pumped to get pressure for the brakes to be operational. Although this test failed and rendered the car unsafe ford released the car with a promise to replace the parts when they become available. A call to Ford corporate to inform them of this safety issue was that they have no programs that cover the vehicle any more to help in this situation. The Anti-lock brake system originally failed around 2014. We noticed the problem when the Anti-lock brake warning light would intermittently come on. After a period of time of daily driving the vehicle the light remained on the the brake system became spongy. Local repair confirmed the problem and diagnosed it to be an anti-lock brake HCU failure. After getting the vehicle to invoke the anti-lock system while driving the pedal fade disappeared. So the car drove normally but the Anti-lock light was illuminated. Every year the car passed NYS inspection and the brakes were tested. A total brake job replacing brake lines, calipers, drums and rotors was completed in 2020. The system passed with normal braking operation even though the Anti-lock Brake warning light was still on. So for years after the failure the system operated

Vehicle was taken in April 2021 to perform safety recall on ABS Control Unit. I asked to have the unit replaced as i thought it was defective after 6 years of brake pedal going to floor during Anti lock brake events. Ford dealership stated that recall only called for fluids to be flushed and unit tested for pass/fail. At time of recall repair the unit passed. ABS Control Module replacement units available at this time. July 2021, 1300 miles since recall repair I was driving vehicle in the rain, pressed on brake. Brake pedal went to floor again. Took vehicle back into service to have inspected. Ford Service center said they preformed the recall repair as they were required to and now it is my responsibility to replace the defective part. ABS Control Module backordered until at least Oct 2021. Currently 600th in line. This is the scariest safety issue i have ever seen in any vehicle on the road. The inability to brake when needed especially in adverse conditions such as rain or hitting a minor bump in the road, triggering the ABS unit and the valve getting stuck open for periods of time consisting of weeks and months without brake pressure. Not only is it unsafe for the most experienced driver to use the vehicle, i also cannot morally sell this vehicle to someone else as i know how likely they could crash resulting in serious injury. Ford Corporate unhelpful, Ford Dealer Service Center knows of issue and that its defective but cant replace it under recall without corporate approval.

I had the car serviced for a Ford Brake Recall at Watermark Ford Hundai in Marion IL. last month. When I got the car back the brakes felt the same. They go almost all the way to the floor just like before they were supposed to fix them, per the recall notice. I told the service center at Watermark Ford and they said they were fixed, and they would improve over time. They have not improved. So today (7/6/2021) I had to have brake shoes put on my car at another service center and they said the part needed for the recall had not been replaced and they could put it on for $400. I can't afford $400 for a repair that was supposed to be fixed already. I am afraid to drive my car now and it's the only one I have. Please help.
