I STEPPED ON MY BRAKES FOR A RED LIGHT ON A CITY STREET AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR, MY DASH LIT UP WITH SEVERAL BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS AND I HAD TO USE A LOT OF PRESSURE ON THE PEDAL TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. I REALIZED THAT I HAD LOST MOST OF BY BRAKING ABILITY AS WELL AS REGENERATIVE BRAKING. CHECKING THE INTERNET REVEALED THAT THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR THIS PROBLEM ON FORD FUSIONS BUILT IN MEXICO DURING THE TIME FRAME THAT MY FORD WAS BUILT IN MEXICO USING DOT 3 BRAKE FLUID AS MINE USES. THE RECALL(NHTSA #19V-904 FORD #19S54) STATES THAT IT IS NON-VIN SPECIFIC. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND HE SAID THE VIN # OF MY FORD DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL??? I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID TOO THAT THE VIN # DISQUALIFY 'S ME FROM THIS RECALL AND COULD NOT TELL ME WHY. I WAS TOLD TO SET UP AN APPT. WITH A DEALER, DEALER , PAY THEM 130.00 FOR AN ANALYSIS, AND THEN FORD WOULD ADD IT TO THEIR DATABASE OF PROBLEMS FOR FUTURE CONSIDERATION. THE RECALL STATES ABS MODULES ARE HAVING VALVE PROBLEMS BUT FORD HAS LIMITED THEIR ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THE PROBLEM TO CERTAIN MODULES. PER THE RECALL I TALKED TO THE GAVE THEM THE DATA ON MY ABS LABELS BUT THEY HAD NO IDEA WHICH DATE CODE,ETC IS COVERED BY FORD. ANOTHER CALL TO CUSTOMER SERVICE RESULTED IN A SCRIPTED RESPONSE OF WE DON'T KNOW WHICH MODULES ARE COVERED AND WHY MY CAR IS NOT. ESCALATING TO THE "MANAGER OF CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS ANOTHER BRICK WALL, THEY REFUSE TO TELL ME THE SPECIFICS OF THE MODEL/SERIAL#, EVEN THE PART NUMBER OR DATE CODE OF THE MODULES COVERED SO THAT I CAN VERIFY WHAT I HAVE IN MY VEHICLE. FORD HAS PUT BLINDERS ON TO THE FACT THAT MORE ABS MODULES HAVE PROBLEMS THAN THEIR ENGINEERS HAVE IDENTIFIED. CHECKING THE INTERNET REVEALS MANY OTHERS WERE TREATED TO THE SAME DENIAL THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED!!

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, I CAME UP ON MY TURN AND TRIED TO SLOW DOWN. THE BRAKES STARTED TO APPLY AND THEN WENT SOFT AND THE PEDAL SANK TO THE FLOORBOARD AS I CONTINUED TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I WAS AFRSID THAT I COULD NOT SLOW DOWN ENOUGH TO SAFELY MAKE THE TURN. I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY TO SLOW DOWN, BUT I HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP AS THE BRAKES WOULD NOT FULLY STOP THE CAR. CHECKED BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WHICH WAS ABOVE MINIMUM, BUT FILLED TO MAXIMUM AND TRIED TO BLEED BRAKES. DROVE HOME VERY CAUTIOUSLY. REPLACED BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WHICH DID NOT FIX BRAKE PROBLEM. RESEARCHED PROBLEM FURTHER ONLINE AND FOUND RECALL ON 2006-2010 FORD FUSION, HOWEVER THE BUILD DATES DO NOT INCLUDE THIS CAR BY APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS. OUR FORD DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO HONOR THE RECALL FOR THIS REASON. HAVE ALSO READ OTHER CLAIMS OF 2011 FORD FUSIONS ALSO HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. IT IS QUITE EVIDENT THAT THE RECALL DID NOT EXTEND FAR ENOUGH TO PROTECT OTHER FUSION OWNERS FROM THIS TERRIFYING SAFETY HAZARD. CONSIDERING TAKING THIS MATTER TO LOCAL MEDIA AS WELL.

MY WIFE SAID SOMETIMES HER CAR DOESN'T WANT TO STOP AND THE PEDAL DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT. A FEW DAYS AGO A CAR IN FRONT OF HER MADE A SUDDEN STOP SO SHE HAD TO HIT BRAKES AND HER PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR SO SHE HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. FROM THAT TIME FORWARD THE CAR HAD NO BRAKES WITH PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR. I REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER AND IT DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING SO I TOOK IT TO LONG LEWIS FORD IN HOOVER AL. THEY CHARGED TO BLEED THE BRAKE SYSTEM WHICH DIDN'T CHANGE NOTHING....STILL NO BRAKES. NEXT, THEY SAID THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER I INSTALLED COULD BE DEFECTIVE SO THEY CHARGED TO PUT ON ANOTHER ONE....THEY SAID THAT THE CAR DOES HAVE BRAKES BUT PEDAL STEAL NOT RIGHT BECAUSE THE PEDAL GOES HALFWAY TO THE FLOOR.

THEY REPLACED THE ABS PUMP AND THEY SAID THE BRAKES ARE GREAT WHICH MEANS THE PUMP WAS BAD ALL ALONG. THE FINAL BILL WAS $2119.00 WHICH BLEW MY MIND.

I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ON MY CAR CONCERNING THE ABS WAS DEFECTED. I CONTACTED A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP AFTER GETTING THE LETTER TO LET THEM KNOW MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU GO TO APPLY THE BRAKE IT WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BOARD AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT ACCELERATES. THEY TOLD ME I WOULD BE GETTING A SECOND LETTER WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE AND TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED. LAST NIGHT I WAS DRIVING ALONE IN THE CAR ON HWY 72 IN CORINTH MS. I SEEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME GIVE A TURN SIGNAL TO TURN RIGHT. I WENT TO PUT ON THE BRAKE AND THE BRAKES DID THE SAME THING AGAIN. TO AVOID HITTING THE PERSON I HAD TO LEAVE THE HIGHWAY WHICH RESULTED ME HITTING 3 CURBS AND FINALLY THE CAR CAME TO A STOP IN A FLOWER BED AT THE RIB SHACK RESTAURANT. AS I NOW FROM THE INCIDENT I AM SUFFERING FROM LOWER BACK PAIN, SHOULDER AND NECK PAIN. MY CAR WAS DAMAGED FROM WRECK. DRIVER SIDE FRONT RIM AND BACK RIM DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR, BOTH TIRES CUT, WHEEL COVERS DAMAGED DRIVER SIDE OF FRONT BUMPER FELL TO THE GROUND. A CITY COP WAS NICE ENOUGH TO POP IT BACK IN PLACE BUT HE SAID IT WOULD NOT STAY BECAUSE THE CLIPS WERE BROKEN. THEIR WAS ANOTHER PART A BRACKET OR SOMETHING BROKE OFF FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR. I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR IN CORINTH MS BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DRIVEABLE. THIS BRAKE DEFAULT COULD HAD ENDED MY LIFE LAST NIGHT OR THE INNOCENT LADY THAT WAS TURNING IN FRONT OF ME. VERY THANKFUL TO BE ALIVE BUT FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE RELIABLE FOR ALL THE DAMAGES TO MY CAR AND GET THE PARTS HERE TO REPLACE THE ABS. I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH FORD MOTOR COMPANY. I AM TO THE POINT I JUST WISH THEY WOULD BUY THE CAR BACK AND SALVAGED IT. * (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS

VEHICLE DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY STOP WHEN BRAKE IS APPLIED. PEDAL TRAVELS TO FLOOR BEFORE EVENTUALLY BRAKING. HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. SIMILAR TO VEHICLE CONDUCT COVERED UNDER RECALL 19S54; HOWEVER, MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED AS PART OF THAT RECALL NOTICE. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND ON LOCAL/STATE ROADWAYS. I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS A RESULT OF THE FAULTY HCU, AS WITH OTHER VEHICLE MODEL/YEARS SIMILAR TO MINE. FORD WILL NOT ADDRESS ISSUE SINCE MY VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE ALREADY-ISSUED SAFETY RECALL.

2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID. I WAS LEAVING WORK. EXITING A WAREHOUSE DOWN A RAMP WHEN I WENT TO BREAK AND MY BREAKS FAILED. PROBLEM RESOLVED WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. A YEAR LATER, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET BREAKS WENT OUT AGAIN AS I TRIED TO BREAK AT A TRAFFIC STOP AT A MAIN INTERSECTION. I HAD THE CAR SERVICED AT FORD IN MARCH, THEY FOUND NO MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. A FEW DAYS AGO AS I WAS LEAVING MY HOUSE, I REVERSED TO GET OUT OF MY PARKING THEN I WENT TO DRIVE AND IMMEDIATELY MY BREAKS WENT OUT A THIRD TIME, THIS TIME THE ABS LIGHT, BREAK LIGHT, TRACTION LIGHTS AND "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH" EVERY TIME I WAS REQUIRED TO USE THE EMERGENCY BREAK TO SLOW AND PARK THE CAR. THIS IS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE THAT COULD HAVE ENDED TAKING MY LIFE OR SOMEONE ELSE'S. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY AT FORD IN FAIRFIELD CALIFORNIA WHERE I WAS JUST NOTIFIED THE REPAIR COST IS $3,400..WHICH I DON'T HAVE. THE DIAGNOSTICS BY FORD HAVE BEEN INCONSISTENT. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR THE YEAR AND MODEL OF MY CAR BUT WHEN I ENTER THE VIN NUMBER IN YOUR SYSTEM IT SAYS THERE ARE NO RECALLS. PLEASE HELP!

NHTSA RECALL#:19V904 IS WAY OVERDUE. INITIAL FORD NOTICE SAID THAT PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE 1ST QUARTER 2020. IT'S NOW 3RD QUARTER 2020. I BELIEVE THAT FORD IS HOPING THESE OLDER CARS "JUST GO AWAY".

MY 2010 FUSION IS EXPERIENCING THE STICKING ABS VALVE THAT IS COVERED UNDER NHTSA IDENTIFIER 19V904 BUT THE PRODUCTION DATE IS OUTSIDE OF THE PRODUCTION DATE RANGE FOR FORD RECALL # 19S54. I AM EXPERIENCING THE LOSS OF PEDAL RESISTANCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE STICKING ABS VALVE BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. THE LATEST INSTANCE HAPPENED AS I TURNED AND SLOWED AS I CROSSED A RAILROAD TRACK, TRIGGERING AN ABS EVENT. THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS BEING EXPERIENCED BY MANY LATER PRODUCTION DATES THAN COVERED.
