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.

Service brakes, Jan 9, 2019
WHEN DRIVING OVER ROUGH ROAD OR WHEN ITS RAINING AND APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR. IT SEEMS AS WHEN THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES IT CAUSES THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO LOSE STOPPING POWER. AFTER AWHILE THE BRAKES SEEM TO RESET. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO NUMEROUS MECHANICS AND THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AN INTERNET SEARCH, WHICH I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE OF, HAS DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS CASES OF THIS POSSIBLE ABS PUMP FAILURE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING EVENT FOR THE PAST YEAR.

IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHILE ON SNOW, ICE OR BUMPS THE ABS ENGAGES THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND WILL HAVE TO BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR TO STOP AFTER THAT. TO BRING THE PEDAL BACK TO NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION I HAVE TO STOP THE CAR, TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR THEN PUMP THE BRAKES EXTREMELY HARD. THIS COULD HAPPEN IN AS LITTLE AS EVERY 20 FEET WHEN DRIVING IN SNOWY CONDITIONS. THIS ALSO AFFECTS THE STEERING WHEN DRIVING IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS. THE ABS IS SUPPOSE TO HELP KEEP THE CAR IN CONTROL WHEN ROADS ARE SLIPPERY. BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORKING PROPERLY I HAVE TO DRIVE SLOWER THEN EVERYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD AND IT WILL STILL SLIDE AROUND, ESPECIALLY ON TURNS. I HAVE SEARCHED THE WEB AND HAVE FOUND THAT 3 FORD BUILT CARS HAVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE OF FAULTY ABS PUMPS. I WAS GOING TO TO FILE A COMPLAINT YEARS AGO BUT WHEN I RESEARCH BACK THEN IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM TO FORD AND THE NHTSA SO I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE RECALLED SOON ANYWAY. HOWEVER SINCE THEY STILL HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED I DECIDED TO FILE A COMPLAINT. FORD CHARGES ABOUT $1500.00 TO REPLACED THE PART WHICH TO ME IS LIKE STEALING FROM THEIR CUSTOMERS SINCE THEY KNOW THEY PUT A FAULTY PART IN AND THAT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. BELOW YOU ASK WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE FIRST SNOW AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR AND STILL HAPPENS. THANKS

BRAKES ARE LOW/SOFT WHEN ABS IS ACTIVATED AND IT'S BEEN DIAGNOSED AS BEING HCU DEFECTIVE FROM FACTORY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR PUBLIC BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE DRIVER TO CRASH INTO OBJECTS OR OTHER CARS. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY.

EXTENDED BRAKING DISTANCE #EA18002 ISSUE. MY 2008 FORD FUSION'S ABS SYSTEM IS CAUSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GO TO THE FLOOR. HORNE FREEDOM FORD IN SAFFORD ARIZONIA DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A BAD MASTER CYLINDER WHEN I SPECIFICALLY DISCUSSED THE ABS HYDRALIC CONTROL WITH THEM BEFORE THE DIAGNOSIS. THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED AND THEN THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER BASED ON FREEDOM FORD'S DIAGNOSIS. THE BRAKE PEDAL STILL HAD PROBLEMS AND SHOWS THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT CAPABLE OF RELIABLY TESTING AND REPAIRING THE ABS MODULE ON MY 2008 FORD FUSION. THIS IS A CRITITCAL FAILURE OF FORD AND DEALERS TO DIAGNOSE AND FIX A SAFETY DEFECT IN THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT.
