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.
If the valves do not properly close, additional brake pedal travel may be required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
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.

TAKATA RECALL. MY VEHICLE HAS AN AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALL AS OF JUNE 1ST 2016. A VEHICLE WITH A SAFETY FEATURE DEFECT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, AND LOANER VEHICLES ARE NOT BEING ISSUED. WHY AM I SUBJECT TO INJURY OR POSSIBLE DEATH BECAUSE OF A FAULTY PART THAT HASN'T BEEN REPLACED? MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF THE TAKATA RECALL, AND THERE IS NOT YET A REMEDY FOR THE RECALL. IT'S BEEN 15 MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED, AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY A FORD MOTOR COMPANY CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER, THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE AND IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. WHICH IS WRONG BECAUSE IF EVERYTHING WAS FINE THEN THERE WOULDN'T BE A RECALL ON IT. AND WHY IS IT THAT FORD ISN'T GIVING OUT LOANER OR RENTAL VEHICLES TO CONSUMERS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THE RECALL? WHY IS IT THAT NHTSA AND HONDA ADVISE THAT THEIR VEHICLES EFFECTED BY THE RECALL ONLY BE DRIVEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR REPAIR, BUT FOR FORDS NHTSA SAYS THEY ARE SAFE TO DRIVE? IT SHOULDN'T MATTER WHAT MAKE OR MODEL, IF IT IS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL THEN IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE. I SHOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE, JUST BECAUSE THE PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE. THAT IS PUTTING SO MANY LIVES AT RISK. I, AS SHOULD OTHERS AFFECTED, BE ISSUED A LOANER OR RENTAL VEHICLE AT THE COMPANIES EXPENSE, FOR HAVING A DEFECTING PART IN THEIR VEHICLE. WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT AROUND LIKE A SITTING DUCK HOPING THAT NOTHING HAPPENS. THIS NEEDS TO ADDRESSED AND FIX RIGHT AWAY.
