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.

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.

POWER STEERING GOES OUT FOR NO REASON. IN MOTION. HAPPENED ONCE WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. ANOTHER TIME 15 - 20 MPH. WHAT IF THIS HAPPENS AT HIGHER SPEEDS? DEALERSHIP WANTS MORE THAN $100 TO LOOK AT IT? MORE THAN $1400 TO REPLACE? THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY CUSTOMER SERVICE TO LOOK FOR SOME RECOURSE AND I WAS READ A STANDARD DOCUMENT ABOUT IT BEING THE CUSTOMERS RESPONSIBILITY.

MY 2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID HAS LOST ALL STEERING THREE TIMES OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS. AFTER BRINGING IN FOR SERVICE, THE MECHANICS HAVE FOUND NOTHING AT ISSUE OTHER THAN NEEDING TO RESET THE COMPUTER AS IT IS ALL SEALED ELECTRONICS. THIS OCCURRED AGAIN TWICE WITHIN TWO DAYS AND WITH THE SAME RESPONSES FROM THE MECHANIC. I AM CONCERNED AS THE INCIDENT TODAY OCCURRED WHILE TURNING INTO TRAFFIC, WHICH ALMOST CAUSED A HEAD ON COLLISION. THIS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS IN MOTION, TURNING ONTO A CITY STREET. FROM ADDITIONAL RESEARCH ONLINE, HAVE FOUND SIGNIFICANT COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID OWNERS AS WELL, BUT HAVE NOT HAD ANY NOTICES BY FORD TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE

MY 2010 FORD FUSION SEL HAS LOST ALL POWER STEERING DUE TO A FAILURE IN THE ELECTRONIC RACK AND PINION. I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND RECEIVED TWO WARNINGS ON THE INFORMATION SCREEN IN THE CLUSTER: POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT, AND SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND HAVE BEEN TO MULTIPLE FORD DEALERSHIPS, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO OTHER THAN CHARGE ME OVER TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS TO HAVE MY VEHICLE FIXED. YET, THE 2011 AND 2012 MODEL YEARS HAD A FULL RECALL OF THE PART AT NO COST. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE ON FORD'S BEHALF AND EXTREMELY UNSAFE DUE TO THE FACT THAT WITH THE POWER STEERING BEING OUT, THE STABILITY CONTROL IS ALSO DISABLED. YES, MY VEHICLE IS DRIVE-ABLE BUT IT IS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER AT SLOWER SPEEDS. IT'S AN ACCIDENT AND LAWSUIT WAITING TO HAPPEN, AND I DO NOT WANT TO BE THE UNFORTUNATE ONE TO GO THROUGH SUCH A THING. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, BEFORE ANY LIVES ARE LOST OR PREVENTABLE ACCIDENTS OCCUR.

IN DECEMBER OF 2018 WHILE CAR WAS IN MOTION; THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND WE RECEIVED THE ADVANCTRAC / SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW MESSAGE. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RACK AND PINION NEEDED REPLACED SO WE REPLACED THE RACK AND PINION. IN OCT; THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AND AFTER DIAGNOSIS; WE HAD THE RACK AND PINION CHANGED AGAIN. IN NOV.; THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. THIS TIME THE MECHANIC ACCIDENTALLY LEFT HIS SCANNER ON THE CAR OVER THE WEEKEND AND IT DRAINED THE BATTERY. WHEN THE MECHANIC CHARGED THE SYSTEM AND STARTED THE CAR; THE MESSAGE "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" WAS GONE AND THE POWER STEERING WAS BACK. IN DEC. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. WE ONCE AGAIN HAD THE RACK AND PINION CHANGED. NOW IT IS JANUARY 24TH AND THE POWER STEERING IS GONE AGAIN. EACH TIME; THE DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN LUCKY BECAUSE IT HAS HAPPENED AT LOW SPEEDS. IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE GOING AROUND A CURVE GREATER THAN 45 DEGREES; THIS DRIVER WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. NOW ALL WE WANT TO DO IS GET RID OF THE CAR; UNFORTUNATELY, WE CANNOT KEEP THE POWER STEERING FROM GOING OUT AND I WILL NOT PASS THIS ISSUE ON TO SOMEONE ELSE.

THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING WHICH ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK. AT FIRST, TURNING THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTING IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. NOW IT IS COMPLETELY OUT AND IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SAFELY DRIVE. I UNDERSTAND THE 2011 MODEL FORD FUSION ALSO HAD THIS ISSUE, WHICH WAS RECALLED. THE 2010 FORD FUSIONS ALSO NEED TO BE RECALLED. IT IS NOT SAFE TO OUR CHILDREN OR ANYONE ELSE TO RIDE IN THE 2010 FORD FUSION WHEN THE POWER STEERING JUST RANDOMLY GOES OUT.
