Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2006-2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln Zephyr and MKZ vehicles.

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.

TAKATA RECALL - NONE OF THE FORD DEALERS THAT I'VE CONTACTED HAVE ANY SOLUTIONS TO THIS PROBLEM... THEY SAY THEIR PARTS DEPARTMENT CAN NOT ORDER REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS FOR MY CAR :-( THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR IS WARPING! I GUESS FORD IS OKAY WITH THE FACT THAT HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE DRIVING AROUND FORD CARS & TRUCKS WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS THAT COULD SEND GLASS SHARDS IN TO THE PASSENGER CABIN ON IMPACT! TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING.... I'VE RECEIVED SO MANY NOTICES FROM FORD BUT NEVER ANY SOLUTIONS!

THIS VEHICLE FAILS TO STOP ON SLICK OR ICY ROADS. STEP ON BRAKE AND IT GOES RIGHT TO FLOOR. AFTER 5 TO 10 SECONDS BRAKE WILL BUILD BACK UP. SOMETIMES BRAKE LOCKS UP AND SLIDES TO THE LEFT. THIS HAS BEEN UNDER INVESTIGATION SINCE 2016, IS OUR GOVERNMENT PLANNING ON GIVING US SOME KIND OF RELIEF FROM THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY. WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG? HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO GET HURT BEFORE YOU MAKE FORD PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKE. YOU HAVE ALREADY HAD AN ADMISSION THE FAULT WAS CAUSED BY THE HCU BEING COMPOSED OF ZINC WHICH WAS THE MAJOR PROBLEM. VERY EXPENSIVE FIX AND FORD SHOULD EAT THEIR OWN MISTAKE. HELP US FUSION OWNERS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME A NUMBER OF TIMES. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW CAR AND THE MECHANICS FIX DOES NOT WORK,EVEN THOUGH IT IS A 2 THOUSAND DOLLAR FIX.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM CAMPUS AND MY SUSPENSION STARTED ACTING UP. IT STARTED FIRING UP AND DOWN AND FLUCTUATING A LOT. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND TAKE BACKROADS. IT WAS STILL ACTING UP THE ENTIRE TIME. THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT AND "WRENCH" LIGHT BOTH CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY. I COULD BARELY GO OVER 35 MPH WITHOUT THE RPM FLARING UP PAST 5000 AND IT FELT LIKE MY WHOLE ENGINE WAS GOING TO GIVE OUT. EVEN WHEN I WAS GOING 20-25 MPH, IT FELT AND SOUNDED LIKE I HAD THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. THE AAA GUY WHO TOWED MY CAR SAID THAT I HAD THE SAME TRANSMISSION PART NUMBER AS A 2010, WHICH GOT RECALLED FOR FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS. MY CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT SO THERE IS NO WAY I SHOULD BE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION UNLESS THE PART IS FAULTY OR IT IS SOMETHING I AM UNAWARE OF.

WHILE APPROACHING A STOP SIGN IN THE STATE OF WI IN NOVEMBER WITH SNOW COVERED ROADS MY ABS ACTIVATED WHILE SLIDING INTO THE STOP SIGN AND BRAKING HOWEVER THE BREAK JUST WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I DROVE RIGHT THROUGH THE STOP SIGN. I PROCEEDED TO PUMP THE BREAK HOWEVER THE BREAKS WERE SOFT AND SQUISHY. THE BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. DUE TO THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT WHICH HAS A VALVE STICKING. A COMMON PROBLEM I LEARNED WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED SO NO ONE GET SERIOUSLY INJURED.
Service brakes, Nov 29, 2018
BRAKES HAVE GONE SPONGY/SOFT. I HAVE TO PUSH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO EVEN GET TO STOP AT ALL. IT'S VERY SCARY. I USED TO BE ABLE TO RESET IT, WHEN IT HAPPENED, BY PULLING OFF THE ROAD, PUSHING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, SHUTTING MY CAR OFF, RESTARTING MY CAR, AND DRIVING AGAIN. THIS LAST TIME, IT WILL NOT RESET. I KNOW MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED FOR THIS, AND I'VE BEEN AWARE OF THE ISSUE SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN 2013. DO WE NEED SOMEONE'S FAMILY TO EXPERIENCE A "FATAL INJURY" BEFORE IT'S RECALLED? IT'S BEEN AN ISSUE FOR A LONG TIME, AND IT'S SAD THAT, PEOPLE'S LIVES AREN'T BEING TAKING SERIOUSLY. WHAT IF YOU GET REAR-ENDED BY A FUSION, LINCOLN OR MERCURY THAT KILLS YOUR CHILD IN THE BACKSEAT, BECAUSE THEIR BRAKES QUIT WORKING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT I THE MOST CURRENT THAT HAS CAUSED ME TO NOT HAVE WORKING BRAKES IS: ON MONDAY NIGHT, (11/26/18 - AROUND 6P) I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30-35 MILES AN HOUR, ON JOHN PAUL RD, HEADING TOWARDS SUNSET, TO TAKE A LEFT TO GO HOME, THREE DEER RAN OUT IN FRONT OF MY CAR AND I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. AFTERWARDS, MY BRAKES NO LONGER WORKED PROPERLY, I TRIED TO RESET, LIKE I MENTIONED EARLIER, AND IT WOULD NOT WORK. I'VE TRIED REPEATEDLY SINCE THEN, IN HOPES THAT THEY WILL, BUT TO NO AVAIL. THANK YOU.

BRAKES SUDDENLY ARE SPONGY AND HAVE TO BE PRESSED NEARLY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE CAR. HAS HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS, AND IN GARAGE. HAS NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE BRAKING TIME AND DISTANCE INCREASED WITH ABSOLUTELY NO NOTICE. HAVE HAD TO HAD THE ABS BLED THREE SEPARATE TIMES IN THE LAST 18 MONTHS AT A REPAIR SHOP. SEVERELY DISAPPOINTED TO LEARN THAT HUNDREDS OF THESE INSTANCES HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND FORD HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL.

MY VEHICLE HAS HAD AN AIRBAG RECALL FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER (TAKATA BRAND) AIRBAG. I'VE RECEIVED MANY NOTICES FOR THIS ISSUE SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THE CAR (AUGUST, 2014). AFTER CALLING FORD MULTIPLE TIMES, I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE PRODUCTS HAVE NOT ARRIVED TO REPLACE THE POSSIBLY DAMAGED PARTS. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN ONE ACCIDENT IN THE PAST THREE YEARS (ROUGHLY FALL/WINTER OF 2016). THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, WHICH IS WORRISOME BECAUSE AT THIS POINT I'M UNSURE IF IT'S BECAUSE IT WASN'T NECESSARY OR BECAUSE THEY ARE MALFUNCTIONING. PLEASE ADVISE AND LET ME KNOW HOW I CAN FURTHER EVALUATE AND SOLVE THIS ISSUE. THANKS!

MOST RECENTLY, GOING AROUND A SHARP CURVE ON A RAINY NIGHT, MY HUSBAND SKIDDED AND RAN OFF THE ROAD BEFORE THE BRAKES ENGAGED. THEY HAD BEEN WORKING, AND THE FAILURE WAS SUDDEN.
