Takata recall when turning the steering wheel either left or right (whether in motion or stationary) the wheel makes cranking noises. When making a turn that requires the wheel to be turned completely to either side, the axel makes a scratching and screeching and the car begins to stall. Two lights have come on the dash board as well. Both have to do with steering.

My wife arrived at work and shifted the car into park. While exiting the car started rolling backwards. She had to apply the emergency brake to stop it. While the dash and shifter said the car was in park it was really in neutral or reverse. I had the car towed to the dealership. The replaced the shifter cable assembly and told me that a small plastic bushing broke and thats what caused the issue. Total cost of the repair was $410. There is now a recall for the exact same problem but they will not refund me the money because my VIN is not part of the recall. The recall needs to be expanded to cover more Fusion's. mine was at the flat rock assembly plant as the recalled cars were, just two weeks after the cutoff date of Sept. 14, 2013. Ford corporate was no help just told me to call the dealer where I had the repair done. Typical Ford customer service I must say after dealing with them for the past 4+ years.

I purchased a new-to-me 2014 Ford Fusion from germain Ford in columbus Ohio on 2/2/18. On the 2nd day I had the car there was a light snow storm, a few inches, I am a wonderful driver with a clean record. I went to pull out of my street and I lost control of the car. I thought it was ice until I stopped at a light & my wheels started spinning and I could hardly maintain control. I felt like the steering wheel was taking over and I was fighting it as I kept sliding. This went on the entire two miles to work. I'd never been more terrified. I've driven in snow and ice for 20 years and this is my 6th Ford and I had never been so afraid of a car. I thought maybe it was a one time issue, maybe it really was just a strange one time thing? but on Sunday 3/25/18 it was raining here in columbus and I was driving about 40-45 mph on a wet road and my car started acting like it did in the snow, but this time I lost total control of the car tc came on and once again I could not control my car and the wheel jerked to the right causing us to spin out of control. The back passenger tire hit a curb, we spun around and the front passenger side hit the curb and we went into a grassy area coming pretty close to a pole and an apartment bldg. I ended up with a flat tire, bent rim, I needed an alignment, the paint is scratched under my car, and I need a new baring on the front drivers side. Also - I found out there was around 5 inches of water in my trunk due to a broken seal. I had the car towed to the dealer & I begged them to figure out what's wrong. Right now they claim nothing is wrong but they are fixing the leak & the damage. I paid for a new tire. I am beyond terrified to drive the car again. I have never lost control of a car before and now I have in this car - twice in less than a month. Something is very very wrong. Thank you for any help or suggestions. I just want a safe car.
