When turning on car at the Ford dealership following repair of recalled airbag the warning light to service electronic trac system. Steering wheel would not turn. Service writer checked codes and nothing came up. I was told to just turn it off and back on and that would reset it. That worked. It continued to do that on and off the next 2 weeks. Then it would not reset. We tried to drive it stopping and starting it to try to reset it. It suddenly became really difficult to steer and my husband lost control and ran over a curb on city street. Luckily no one was on the curb or sidewalk.no injuries. Ford says the electronic steering is out and will need to be replaced costing over 18,000$. I have 133,000 miles on car.

The power steering stopped working. For about 1.5 months when I would turn on the vehicle the dash would notify of a power steering fault and power steering would not work (steering wheel near impossible to move). However, if I turned the car off and back on the fault would go away and power steering would return to normal. Unfortunately now the power steering is permanently not working and the car is no longer safe to drive. Stability control warning also came on immediately after. Extremely glad power steering did not go out while I was driving, it would have likely caused me to crash since steering is so hard to use without power steering. I did some research Ford has a recall for this exact issue for the 2011 and 2012 Fusion but not the 2010 but appears the 2010 is affected by the same defect.

Car is a 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid 93kmile. On November 14, 2019 at 7am, car was approaching to a traffic intersection. Car did not stop when apply break hit on the back of van standing on the traffic light. Used the hand break to slow down and since the speed was low when hit the front van. No major damage occur except scratch and escaped from accident. Took to Ford dealership in East widsor, NJ (halman Ford). After diagnosis the result shows the ABS break control unit is not functioning and should be replaced. It cost $1588+ tax. Called Ford. They told they don't have any program for this issue and don't provide any assistance for repair.

I had already gotten my throttle body repaired the year before my car started jolting as if it was malfunctioning again. This time though the vehicle would jump when I tried accelerate from stop, rpms would go all the way up to 5 before switching gears and the speedometer would move up and down while electrical lights flickered. Took it to Ford and nothing was found so I got an oil change and transmission flush. That same day the car started doing it again. I took the car back to Ford they offered to clean the throttle body and returned the car the next day. Not even 24hrs after started the same problem. I took car to auto zone they immediately found an error for the camshaft position sensor. Brought car back to Ford where they had me leave it for two days for the transmission tech to look at it. They then said oil had leaked onto the sensor causing the car to drive that way. Replaced that and the head that was leaking. Car was still jolting and driving as if throttle body was messed up but worse. I brought my car back that same week they found a sensor that needed to be replaced in the transmission. This whole while I was 8-9 months pregnant and ended up spending 1200 dollars on something that should've been fixed the first timr and in my opinion a side effect from the car having a defective throttle body for so long before they allowed it to be fixed.

While in motion power steering message appear on dashboard, and steering has hard. Took car to dealer and they stated that I needed to replace the steering and pinion. But when I got the car back from the dealer and steering was working. Issue came back a week later and I took the car to a local mechanic that stated that the dealer probably reset the codes or computer. He check the steering and cabling and found no issue. He reset the computer code and the issue went away. Two weeks later after my tire became low the same issue happen. It seems that the steering keeps erroring out or getting some type of message causing it to shutdown until the code is reset.

Well I get out this morning to take my kids to school when I crank the car and we start riding the service advancetrac light came on in blank then the service power steering light came on. So after I drop them off I was on my way home the light continue to blink as I pulled up in my driveway the steering wheel start to get hard to steer so I'll park got out well so I'll part pop the hood got out and check for power steering on to realize that is not one because it's electric. So when I look online to my surprise everybody with a Ford Fusion is having the same as a problem different year different engine size but same problem no one seems to have a solution because it's many things that can cause the problem is very stressful I think Y'all should have that on recall to help better assist people with the problems. Unfortunately I hate the fact that my my warranty is up as father with a family of five don't have the money to afford to pay for to get it fixed.

The car stalls and shifts gears after stopping at a red light or stop sign then after moments of pressing the gas pedal it spins off and jerks really hard on a freeway it rides very well it only stalls after waiting at a light or stop sign or tapping onto the break also the car has new break pads but it sounds like something is scrubbing and while I was backing out of a parking lot the car made a huge popping and threw me back while my foot was on the break it scared me so I got out to see what happened and I didn't hit anything nor did anything hit me so I tried to drive home and the car jerked the entire way home almost

Driving vehicle at about 25 mph when an alert came up to check stability control and power steering. Power steering was slightly tougher but not hard.

My 2010 Ford Fusion lost all electronic power steering while driving 45 on the highway with my 12 yr old and 1 month old in the vehicle. While driving my steering seized up and I had to use all extra force to turn off the highway. Thank god traffic was easy and I was able to get off the road. The dash board lights came on saying tire pressure low, service power steering and advanced trac warning. Many complaints have been made about the 2010 Ford Fusion. However a recall has only been issued for the 2011-2012 model for the same exact issue that many people are having with the 2010 as well. This is a serious matter. It can be very dangerous not only to us as the drivers but everyone on the road. Very unsafe! hopefully a recall is given for the 2010 models as well, being that it is the same exact issue for a year later and above.

I brought my nephew to school, car started fine and no issues. It's only maybe a mile down the road. When I turned the car back on after dropping off, the 'power steering assist fault' and 'service advancetrak' indicators came on once I put it in reverse the steering wheel locked up. The power steering assist fault indicator came on maybe 3 times throughout the past 2 months but once I put the car in park and turned it off then back on, the indicator was gone and I could drive. This time it didn't go away and the service advancetrak was on.

- Cayuga, NY, USA

After starting the car, I get message "power steering assist fault". after moving just a few feet, the traction light comes on and I get message "service advancetrac". the dealership tells me the electric rack needs to be replaced and the part alone is over $1600. From my understanding, the 2011 and 2012 models have been recalled, and the 2010 models have the same part number for the recalled rack.

The vehicle lost power steering while driving down the highway almost causing me to run off the road and into a tree. The service power steering now light than came

- Blytheville, AR, USA

The vehicle was parked turned on lost power steering and posts the codes "power steering assist fault" and "advancetrac needs service." It makes controlling the car difficult and dangerous. We checked online and noticed there have been hundreds if not thousands of the same complaints. Ford knows this is a problem on this model car and has done nothing about it. Very dangerous and disappointing. Not a good representation of an american company.
