Air bags, frontal, driver side, inflator moduleMar 10, 2021
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion, Lincoln Zephyr, Lincoln MKZ, 2006-2011 Mercury Milan, 2007-2010 Ford Edge, and Lincoln MKX vehicles. The driver's side air bag inflator may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver-side airbag inflator or module with an alternate one, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 9, 2021 for the passenger side, and November 14, 2022 for the driver side. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

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 Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 Ford Fusion vehicles manufactured July 21, 2008, to March 4, 2011, and 2010-2011 Mercury Milan vehicles manufactured July 23, 2008, to December 10, 2010. The affected vehicles have fuel vapor canisters whose purge valves may not operate properly resulting in abnormal pressure changes in the fuel tank.
The pressure changes may cause the tank to crack and leak fuel. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle powertrain control modules and inspect the vehicle for any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for this issue and perform a leak test on the Canister Purge Valve (CPV). The fuel tank will be inspected for cracks. The CPV and fuel tank will be replaced as necessary. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2016. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 15S34.

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain all weather driver side accessory floor mats sold for use in model year 2006-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, 2006 Lincoln Zephyr, and 2007-2011 Lincoln MKZ vehicles manufactured November 9, 2007, through October 31, 2010. The affected floor mats may move and possibly interfere with the accelerator pedal.
The floor mat could shift such that it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, preventing its return to an idle position, which could result in unintended vehicle speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install new replacement mats, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Ford's customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S07. NOTE: Vehicles built after October 31, 2010, while potentially equipped with the same floor mats, are equipped with a Brake Over Accelerator (BOA) feature that prevents simultaneous accelerator and brake application, allowing the vehicle to be safely stopped by pressing firmly and steadily on the brake pedal.

CAR ACCELLERATION IS SLUGGISH/WEAK AFTER CAR COMES TO COMPLETE STOP. POSES REAL DANGER WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC, ESPECIALLY LEFT TURNS WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED BY SEVERAL OTHERS. CAUSE IS DESIGN DEFECT IN VEHICLE/BATTERY AGE COUNTER IN CAR'S COMPUTER. ONLY ALLOWS FOR ONE DIGIT. CAUSES BATTERY TO STOP WORKING PROPERLY AFTER CAR REACHES 10 YEARS OF AGE. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED IN AORIL 2010. HAD LOCAL AUTO SHOP RESET COUNTER TO "0". (CAR HAS ONLY 77,000 MILES) NOW FUNCTIONS AS INTENDED. COPY OF REPAIR INVOICE ATTACHED. I WILL SEND COPY TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY RQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT AFTER FILING REPORT HERE.

THE EV SYSTEM IS NO LONGER WORKING. THE HYBRID BATTERY IS HEALTHY AND THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES IT IS EXPECTED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE. MANY OTHERS HAVE NOTED THIS ISSUE AS THE BATTERY "AGING OUT" AS PROGRAMMED BY FORD. A SUGGESTED REMEDY IS TO RESET THE BATTERY TO AGE >0;<10. WITHOUT THIS RESET, THE HYBRID RUNS ON ONLY THE GAS MOTOR. AT TIMES, THIS DELAYS ACCELERATION BOTH FORWARDS AND BACKWARDS AS THE GAS MOTOR (ICE) STARTS BACK UP AFTER STOP. THIS HESITATION CAN EASILY CAUSE A WRECK WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP.

UPON 9 YEARS OF AGE MY 2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID (ANY MANY OTHERS) NO LONGER FUNCTIONS AS A HYBRID VEHICLE AND WILL ONLY USE THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY CONCERN DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE EV MOTOR IS SUPPOSED TO KICK IN FROM A STOP UPON ACCELERATION. THIS CAUSES A SIGNIFICANT DELAY IN ACCELERATION WHILE IT TRIES TO USE THE EV MOTOR BUT CANNOT DUE TO THIS LIMITATION. WHILE AT ROUNDABOUTS OR WHEN MAKING LEFT HAND TURNS THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. FORD HAS DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS THIS OR EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT THIS ISSUE EXISTS.
Electrical system, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 24, 2020
IT HAS BEEN DISCOVERED THAT IN MANY IF NOT ALL FMC 4 DOOR SEDAN HYBRIDS WITH THE 2.5 LITER ENGINE AND NICKLE METAL HYDRIDE BATTERIES, OEM SOFTWARE STARTS TO DRASTICALLY REDUCE ELECTRIC VEHICLE OPERATION SOMETIME AFTER THE HYBRID WARRANTY EXPIRES. THE EFFECT OF THIS IS THE CAR'S ACCELERATION AND FUEL EFFICIENCY IS DRASTICALLY REDUCED AND AUTOMATIC PERIODIC BATTERY RE-CONDITIONING CEASES. THE CAR ESSENTIALLY CEASES TO FUNCTION AS A HYBRID AND THE ENGINE RUNS ALL THE TIME EXCEPT WHEN AT A STANDSTILL. UP TO 70,000 VEHICLES MAY BE AFFECTED. IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT THIS ID CONTROLLED BY A BATTERY AGE FEATURE IN THE SOFTWARE. RESETTING THIS AGE TO ANY LOWER VALUE RESTORES COMPLETELY NORMAL HYBRID BEHAVIOR AND PERFORMANCE. FMC HAS REFUSED TO DO THIS INSTEAD QUOTING BATTERY REPLACEMENT FOR $8,000 AS THE SOLUTION. D.O. E. TESTS MANY YEARS AGO SHOWED ROBUST PERFORMANCE OF THE BATTERY OUT TO 160,000 MILES IN ACCELERATED TESTING. THE FIX IS A TEN MINUTE SOFTWARE BATTERY AGE CHANGE THAT FMC REFUSES TO DO. THE REDUCED ACCELERATION IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE ATKINSON CYCLE ENGINE WAS NOT DESIGNED TO BE UNASSISTED BY THE BATTERY AND HAS VERY SLOW POWER ACCELERATION WITHOUT IT.
