The brakes on my 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid, occasionally stop working, and the brake pedal, Has to be pushed harder and further than usual for the brakes to engage. This creates an extremely dangerous situation for anyone driving the vehicle, and any other vehicles sharing the roadway near my vehicle. The vehicle was not involved in an accident, but very easily could-??ve been. After the first time this happened, I replaced the brakes on my vehicle, however, that did not fix the issue. Upon further research, I found there was a Ford safety recall (19S54) on 2010 Ford Fusions for this very issue. The problem I am having, is caused by a valve within the brake system's hydraulic control unit sticking open, forcing the driver to push the brake harder and further than usual for the brakes to engage. Ford recalled more than 600,000 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years for the previously mentioned problem under Ford safety recall number 19S54. My vehicle is having the exact issues addressed in Ford safety recall 19S54. For whatever reason, my Ford Fusion is not listed as an eligible vehicle to be fixed under Ford safety. Recall 19S54 even though it falls within the make model and year of vehicles affected under the recall. I-??m assuming my vehicle isn-??t eligible simply because it may have been manufactured in a different plant than the one listed on the recall? However, I am experiencing the exact same, extremely dangerous, safety issue documented in the recall, and my vehicle otherwise fits within the parameters. This issue has created an extremely dangerous situation for my family, and others on the roadway. I would appreciate your help in getting the issue fixed under Ford safety recall 19S54. I already spoke to Ford customer service, and the representative stated they couldn-??t do anything unless NHTSA advised them the issue needed to be taken care of. Thank you for your time and consideration!

Anti-Lock brakes controller failed. Cannot brake without car shaking violently. Causes safety issues with controlling vehicle during stop ABS light came on Manufacturer (Ford) has not been able to get the (chip) for over 1 year

- Lakeway, TX, USA

ABS and anti skid light are on and those systems don't function. ABS control module is bad and Ford has a recall on this but the VIN for this vehicle doesn't fall under this recall for the same exact model year and part on other recalled cars. All cars with this issue should fall under this recall.

- Lacey, WA, USA

The brakes are acting in the same manner described in the previous recall issued by this agency. My vehicle was manufactured at the same plant as the previous recall for the same problem. I am at a loss as too what it will take" Will it take more loss of life" Get off your ass and do something!! Thousands of people are experiencing the same problem open your eyes and do something!

- Stuart, FL, USA

There was no incident this happened after. It literally just started a couple months ago out of nowhere. I tried to diagnose it myself. But the code was b-1342-e0 which is an ECU fault. I paid for a diagnostic to find out it was actually the ABS module sending the fault code to ECU. After some research, it appears 2010 fusions had a history of this ABS issue. Not sure why there is no recall, seeing as this could be a life threatening issue.

The Fusion has been worked on twice now replacing cylinders, however it was recently discovered that the issue is with the ABS Hydraulic Control unit. The car's pedal would push almost to the floor making the stopping power hazardous out of nowhere. After research on this unit, it appears it was a recall for many Fusions but not specifically for this mode. I am filing a complaint as it appears our specific model has the same issue but is not covered under the recall. We have spent over $1000 to get this replaced and seeking a refund.

Advance Trac light and brake light came on without any notice and lost ability to brake. Was able to use parking brake to avoid any collisions. There have been 0 issues before this that would have given me any advanced notice of this. After a Google search I found that this is apparently a known and fairly common issue with these cars.

- Holland, MI, USA

Brakes lose power --- depress all the way and there's no braking power. Almost got into a serious car crash since I literally could not stop (except for using the ebrake). Check engine light is on. This seems to be an incredibly common and dangerous issue with the older Ford Fusions (I have a 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid). Only 105k miles. Dealer recommends replacing ABS Module (among other things).

The hydraulic control module/ABS control unit has malfunctioned, causing the brake pedal to become spongy. The pedal is not firm, and I need to press the brake pedal all the way down to get normal braking force. With normal functioning brakes, you press the pedal down 25%; however, I must press down 75% until I even begin feeling the car slow down. There were no warning lights, and this problem has existed for two years. I have replaced the brakes and bled the fluid multiple times, but the problem persists. I have had very close calls with other drivers where I have not had enough time to stop due to having to press the brake pedal all the way down. This problem is constant and occurs whether I drive in the city or on the highway. The city is especially dangerous due to frequently having to stop for traffic signals or suddenly stopping for pedestrians or other vehicles on the roadway. I have not had this issue officially diagnosed by a dealership; however, my vehicle is available for inspection. I have experienced symptoms similar to those of many peers with the same vehicle. My peers have changed the master cylinder, brakes, and flushed brake fluid many times, yet the problem has persisted and has been diagnosed as a hydraulic control module/ABS control unit issue that requires replacing the unit. A recall was issued for select 2010 Ford Fusions regarding this issue; however, after checking on the NHTSA and Ford websites, my vehicle is not eligible for a recall despite experiencing similar issues. I hope by bringing this to your attention there can be a new recall issued to encompass all 2010 Ford fusions and associated models experiencing the same issues, as having functional brakes is extremely important for not only the safety of the vehicle occupants but also for others using the roadway. I hope the NHTSA, in collaboration with Ford, will work in the best interest of the public's safety to swiftly address this issue before any unfortunate accidents occur.

Brakes have same systems as discribed in 19S54 recall but my vehicle is not listed as needing that recall!

- Moundridge, KS, USA

I was driving the vehicle and it started beeping. I looked at the dashboard and multiple lights in relation to the brakes were on or flashing such as the brake light, abs, service advancetrac, traction control etc. The main issue was I was driving and the vehicle had some sort of glitch and all the lights for the brake system came on the and vehicles brakes did not work. The brake was soft and if depressed it went down to the floor. Luckily no cars were ahead of me and I was able to pull the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. After researching this, this was an issue for these model vehicles, but I thought this was addressed on my particular vehicle. This is a common issue with these cars and has happened to many of the vehicles as reported on various consumer report and the NHTSA. This issue is documented in the TSB-09-22-11 as well as 19S54 Recall. I shut the car off and turned it back on and the lights went away and it worked. Car was towed the dealer and they were unsure and I also reached out to Ford Motor Co but they were unwilling to help.

Never had issues with my car since I had it. But over the past year the cars brakes, if you keep your foot on the pedal, over time it will slowly go closer to the floor. I could stop, but the brakes felt squishy. Biggest problem though is my brakes were working fine, no warning lights, nothing.. Park car turn it off, go into store, come back out and my brakes are not working. The pedal goes right to floor. I had to use my emergency brake to stop. I took car to shop and they said the ABS control module needs replaced. This is a common issue with the 2010 Ford Fusion hybrids.. But there doesnt seem to be a recall on it. He even said when he checked the information there is a recall on that ABS control unit, but when you call Ford, they say my particular VIN number is not covered. This is nonsense, because I am having the same identical issue with the other Ford fusion and cars that have this same exact part in it. When I went to go pick up my car, now the brakes are working. It makes no sense. Will they go out again on me at any given time? This is a major concern and danger to me and those around me if they go out while I am driving. Please make FORD include this VIN number make and model be recalled for the repair. Thank you

After the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) was engaged, the braking system was spongy, in that the pedal would almost reach the floor before the brakes started working. It has happened several times, but has gotten worse recently, three times in the past six months. One time it happened when I went over a speed bump. I have to be extremely careful when this happens. Once the vehicle sits overnight it seems to clear up. I try not to use the ABS, but it is winter now and this morning someone pulled out in front of me, and I had to use the brakes aggressively. Again, the braking system became spongy. I am hoping by the end of work today it has been remedied for now. After it happens, I am extremely careful about following other cars, for fear of hitting them. It takes longer to stop because of this. I bought the car through the Military overseas program and finding somebody to look at an American car in Korea has been hard. Something is wrong with the ABS.

Hi. I-??m the owner of 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid. VIN: [XXX] Recently, I almost got crushed while I was driving, because I suddenly could not use brakes-??this is happened because of the known ABS issue with this car (I called my mechanic, he diagnosed the issue and it is with ABS Module and it is under a recall and should be fixed by a dealer). However, when I got my car to the dealership, I was surprised that it is not a recall for a Hybrid version of Ford Fusion my year and I have to pay from my own pocket almost $5,000 for part and labor. I do not understand why, it is unfair. This is the known issue for a very long time for so many people. It should be recalled and fixed. You can die while you-??re driving!!! Here is one of the topics on a forum about this issue: [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The vehicle loses all brakes while driving. With multiple warning lights coming on to include brake light, traction control. The problems completely match ford's current recall number 19s54 which this vehicle was not included in. This issue is intermittent.

- Lumberton, NC, USA

The component that has failed is the ABS antilock brake pump. Many Ford fusions of the same year (2010) have a recall for this. However, according to my vin, there is no recall. The antilock brake system completely locked up while driving there were no prior incidents. No brake lights no inclination that the antilock brake pump had any issues. When the antilock brake pump stopped working, it almost caused a serious accident. It was as if, though we were hydroplaning we had no control over the Car. Thankfully, no one was hurt and the car went directly into a field. There was myself, my daughter, my son, and a friend four week old baby in the car!! my son is still having nightmares even though this happened a couple weeks ago! He is autistic and eight years old. This is extremely scary. I had absolutely no control over the car The brake pedal went all the way to the floor. The problem has been reported to the dealer however, even though I have a 2010 it is not reported for a recall. The vehicle component has been inspected by a licensed mechanic. There were no previous morning signs no dash lights no issue with the ABS system at all. The car has been maintained regularly. The car has not been fixed because we didn-??t know what the problem was until last week.

The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the brakes became inoperable. The brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and determined that the VIN was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 160,000.

ABS Advancetrac system failure results in extended brake pedal travel required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. The condition does not result in a loss of braking function and the vehicle can be brought to a controlled stop
