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.

TAKA RECALL. THIS CAR HAS THE DEFECTIVE TAKATA DEVICES, YET ALL I'VE BEEN TOLD FOR ALMOST A YEAR IS THAT THERE IS NO PARTS/ FIX AVAILABLE. IT WOULD SEEM THAT THIS IS FAR TOO LOMG TO HAVEA CAR WITH A DEADLY DEFECT STILL IN USE?
Service brakes, Nov 26, 2017
IN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, AFTER HITTING A SLIGHT BUMP WHILE BRAKING THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS GONE COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. MAKING IT HARD TO STOP AT A SAFE DISTANCE. THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT SEEMS TO BE THE MAIN PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING WITH MANY 2008 FORD FUSION OWNERS AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK. IN TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS I HAD TO QUICKLY MOVE TO THE NEXT LANE IN ORDER TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME.

TAKATA RECALL: MY PASSENGER FRONT SEAT AIRBAG IS FAULTY AND THAT HAS BEEN IMPLICATED IN A NUMBER OF INTERMITTENT, UNEXPLAINED ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND A CONSTANT "PARASITIC DRAIN" ON MY BATTERY REQUIRING A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR AND 2 BATTERIES, SO FAR. ALSO I HAVE BEEN LIMITED IN PERFORMING DUTIES OF MY JOB WHICH REQUIRES TRANSPORTATION OF OTHERS WHO (FOR MEDICAL NEEDS) NEED TO BE IN THE FRONT SEAT FOR OBSERVATION. THEREFORE I HAVE SUFFERED A FINANCIAL LOSS AS WELL. I DROVE THIS VEHICLE FOR 5 YEARS, TRANSPORTING MY OWN CHILDREN IT THE FRONT SEAT BEFORE I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. I WAS TOTALLY UNAWARE OF THE DEADLY POTENTIAL DANGER I EXPOSED MY CHILDREN FOR HOURS EVERYDAY. I AM NOW SUFFERING FROM GUILT, FEAR AND SHAME FOR BEING UNABLE TO CONFIDENTLY PROTECT MY CHILDREN FROM DANGERS THAT WERE WELL KNOWN TO FORD & TAKATA FOR MANY YEARS, BUT KEPT SECRET FROM THE PUBLIC. I HAVE SUFFERED EMOTIONAL STRESS AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DAMAGE-SIMILAR TO PTSD - FROM THIS SITUATION.

MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK I DRIVE PASSENGERS IN A POTENTIALLY UNSAFE CAR DUE TO A RECALLED AIRBAG. I HAVE CALLED A DEALERSHIP, BUT WAS INFORMED THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR OVER A YEAR AND A HALF. IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE OF FORD TO NOT HAVE THIS PART AVAILABLE. I BOUGHT A CAR WHICH I THOUGHT TO BE SAFE AND THE COMPANY CLEARLY IS NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE WELFARE OF THEIR CAR OWNERS DUE TO THE LACK OF CONCERN ABOUT REPLACING THE PART.

ON DECEMBER 7, 2016, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN EXTREMELY COLD TEMPERATURES (ROUGHLY -20 DEGREES) AND ON SNOW AND ICE. DURING A STOP, MY ABS ENGAGED AND AFTER THAT TIME, MY BRAKES BECAME VERY SOFT, REQUIRED THE PEDAL TO BE PUSHED ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND OFFERED VERY LITTLE STOPPING POWER. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS ALREADY CLOSED FOR THE EVENING. THE NEXT DAY, THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND THEORIZED THAT THE EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES DIDN'T ALLOW THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (HCU) TO REROUTE FLUID PROPERLY AFTER THE ABS ENGAGED. THEY ADVISED ME THAT IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN, I MAY NEED TO REPLACE THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT. I'M GUESSING MY CAR HAD ROUGHLY 100,000 MILES ON IT AT THAT TIME. ON NOVEMBER 4, 2017, I WAS DRIVING IN A BLIZZARD THAT HAD STARTED AFTER A PERIOD OF RAIN SO THE ROADS WERE EXTREMELY SLICK AND ICY. ONCE AGAIN, MY ABS ENGAGED WHICH LED TO A BRAKE FAILURE. I ALSO HAPPENED TO BE AT THE SUMMIT OF A MOUNTAIN WITH A 5% GRADE - NOT A GREAT TIME TO LOSE YOUR BRAKES! I TOOK MY CAR IN TO A SHOP ON 11-6-17 TO HAVE THEM DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEY WITNESSED THE BRAKE FAILURE AND AFTER TESTING, DETERMINED THAT THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT HAD FAILED. THEY REPLACED THE HCU (WITH A USED UNIT AT A MATERIALS/LABOR COST OF ROUGHLY $450) AND I WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT TIME MY ABS ENGAGES. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 115,000 MILES ON IT. I CONSIDER MYSELF EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT I DID NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT DURING EITHER OF THESE MALFUNCTIONS. THE HCU FAILURE IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
