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.

WELL IT ALL BEGAN ONE DAY I WAS SIMPLY DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME SOFT AFTER HAVING JUST BEEN WORKING FINE . I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY STRANGE, ALMOST LIKE WHEN THE BRAKES ARE REPLACED BUT NOT BLED AND THERE IS AIR IN THE SYSTEM. SO I TOOK IT DOWN TO MY LOCAL LES SCHWAB AND THEY REPLACED MY MASTER CYLINDER AND FRONT BRAKES , INCLUDING : NEW CALIPERS , NEW PADS , AND RESURFACED ROTORS , WITH NO SUCCESS. NOW THEY LOOKED INTO IT AND THERE IS AN ONGOING RECALL DESCRIBED AS - "ABS VALVE MAY REMAIN OPEN AFTER ABS EVENT " . MY VEHICLE A 2010 FORD FUSION IS LISTED AS BEING AFFECTED BUT MY VIN DOESN'T SHOW A RECALL NEEDED .

SOFT BRAKE PEDAL AFTER STOPPING ON SLIPPERY OR BUMPY ROAD. BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND REQUIRES SEVERAL PUMPS TO STOP. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IS COVERED BY EXISTING RECALL, BUT NOT FOR THIS VIN

SAFETY RECALL 19S54 IDENTIFIES BRAKE PROBLEMS FOR 06-10 FORD FUSIONS. MY CAR HAS THE EXACT PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL, BUT AFTER TAKING IT TO A DEALER FOR REPAIR, I WAS INFORMED THAT IT IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT THE REPAIRS. HOW CAN I GET IT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ELIGIBILITY?

MY 2010 FORD FUSION SEL TWICE EXPERIENCED LOSS OF BRAKING POWER IN 2019 DURING MOMENTS WITH ABS WOULD HAVE LIKELY BEEN ACTIVATED ONCE WHILE BRAKING IN SNOW, ONCE WHILE HITTING A POTHOLE WHILE BRAKING. WHILE BRAKING HARD, THE BRAKE PEDAL SUDDENLY TRAVELED NEARLY THE ENTIRE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS NOT STOPPING AS QUICKLY AS IT SHOULD. AFTER 1 VISIT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND 1 VISIT TO A FORD SERVICE CENTER MOST RECENTLY IN DEC. 2019, THE MECHANICS COULD NOT FIND A CAUSE. I'VE SINCE READ ABOUT FORD RECALL 19S54 WHICH DESCRIBES MY SITUATION ALMOST EXACTLY. THIS IS NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V904000. I CALLED THE FORD DEALER ON 1/8/2021 AND WAS TOLD MY CAR IS NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL AND I CAN PAY FOR THE REPAIRS OUT OF POCKET IF I CHOOSE TO DO SO. I BELIEVE MY CAR IS AFFECTED AND DO NOT KNOW HOW TO ESCALATE THIS TO FORD.
