CarComplaints.com Notes: Ford significantly updated the Fusion for the 2010 model year. We wish they hadn't

Throttle body issues have led to a ton of reports about a sudden deceleration and loss of power while driving. Ford issued a “customer satisfaction program” in March 2014 that, unsurprisingly, has left very few customers satisfied.

2010 is also the year we started seeing complaints about the power steering failing. Throttle and steering failure? Yeah, that’s why this is a clunker.

Tamara recall I took my car into a Ford dealership on 9/25/17 for a fuel tank and canister purge valve inspection and repair (16B338C) and they got it fix. I told them about the airbag recall and they said they don't have any instructions for that yet, so I'm currently waiting for an airbag replacement. I've been waiting for over a year.

We received a letter from Ford in July of 2016 stating there was a recall. After multiple attempts, we were told on October 24 of 2017, that the parts are still not available. We need to know how we can proceed with getting this repair completed. This is a defective takata airbag.

Takata inflators: Our 2010 Ford Fusion is subject to the takata recall (NHTSA #16V384 / manufacturer #16S26), which states: The passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. This defect report is in response to takata dirs 16E-042, 16E-043, 16E-044. This vehicle still does not have a recall part replacement available, which over 1 year after the recall date, is not acceptable. The vehicle has been at the dealer for service several times since this date, and the recall has not been addressed.

Takata recall. I received this recall notice in summer of 2016 called Ford for a couple of months and eventually left my information for them to call me when the parts for the repair became available. Yesterday, over a year later I called back because I had not heard from them. My local dealership informed me that they still do not have parts available. I feel this has been more than an ample amount of time.
