CarComplaints.com Notes: Power steering problems started rearing their ugly head in the 2010 Fusion, so you'd think Ford had plenty of time to make sure those problems didn't creep into the 2012. But here we are.
I just purchased my 2012 Ford Fusion on 1/2/15 and have not even made my first payment yet. Original warranty is up and I only have a limited warranty that came with the car. I thought my transmission was going out because the car was howling really loud. Come to find out it is my air conditioner compressor. There is no reason that a car that is only 3 years old should have a problem with the air conditioner. Ford and the dealer agreed with me but won't cover it and fix it. The other problem is that it affects the heating system and the computer as well. This is my first Ford, and most likely my last if they can't stand behind their products. Judging by some of the comments I have read, other people feel the same. My 2001 BMW had the original air conditioner and it worked great. Any suggestions.
