2013 Ford Fusion Complaint Log

LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING, BARELY ABLE TO KEEP CONTROL AS IT HAPPENED MID TURN AND HAD TO STEER AWAY FROM CURB AS THE STEERING WHEEL WAS MOSTLY LOCKED UP. ERROR CODES INCLUDING STEERING ASSIST FAULT, ADVANCED TRACK FAULT, AND HIII START FAULT APPEARED AND STEERING WHEEL STAYED LOCKED UP. ATTEMPTED TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND ON BUT ERRORS AND STEERING WHEEL FAILURE REMAIN.

MY VEHICLE IS HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR NOT GOING INTO PARK. LAST WEEK I GOT HOME PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I TRIED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK BUT THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT WAS STUCK IN THE DRIVE MODE. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO STOP MY CAR FROM ROLLING INTO MY HOUSE WAS BY USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS IS THE SECOND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS RECALL WITH THIS VEHICLE. PREVIOUSLY I HAD A RECALL WITH THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR LATCH. DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN ONE PARTICULAR DAY AND THE DOOR OPENS. MY PERSONAL OPINION AND BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE THE 2013 FORD FUSION IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HAS NOT BEEN MANUFACTURED PROPERLY.

THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER STEERING UPON START UP. THREE WARNINGS COME UP: : STEERING ASSIST FAULT, SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK, AND HILL ASSIST. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT, BUT CONSISTENT PROBLEM WHICH INCREASES IN FREQUENCY AND DURATION, LASTING AS MUCH AS 20 MILES AT A TIME. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES OVER MORE THAN 2 YEARS WITHOUT A SUCCESSFUL DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR.

LOST COMPLETE POWER AND CONTROL OF CAR NO ACCELERATION WHEN PRESSING GAS IN THE MIDDLE OF STREET CAR SLOWS DOWN WITHOUT NO WARNING AFTER PARKING THE CAR A WRECK INDICATOR FLASH. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME IT'S HIT DOWN ON ME I HAD IT REPAID LAST YEAR AND IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN MY LIFE IS AT RISK WITH THIS CAR SHUTTING OFF ON ITS OWN IT'S NOT FAIR THAT I'M BEING HELD RESPONSIBLE TO PAY FOR THIS FAULTY DEATH TRAP VEHICLE. I COULDN'T DRIVE MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

ANOTHER LUG NUT WAS LOOSE AS A RESULT OF THE DEFECT. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM, BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS A KNOWN SERIOUS DEFECT, OTHER FUSION OWNERS I'VE TALKED TO HAVE SAID THEY HAVE HAD A WHEEL FALL OFF AS A RESULT OF THE LUGNUTS SNAPPING.

SO WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THAT EVERY TIME I OPEN THE BACK SEAT TO PUT DOWN THE SEAT BELT GETS JAM AND WONT RELEASE AND THEN I HAVE TO GET A TOOL TO UNSCREW THE ENTIRE BUCKLE WHERE THE SEAT BELT LATCHES INTO JUST TO RELEASE THE SEAT FROM BEING STUCK DOWN, NOT ONLY THAT WHEN I PUT THE SEAT BACK UP THE BELT JAMS UP AGAIN.

WHILE DECELERATING, THE RPM JUMPS UP TO 4 OR 5 AND THE CARS SHIFTS HARD. DOES MATTER IF I AM GOING UP AN INCLINE OR OR FLAT PLAIN ROAD...IT HAPPENS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, THE GEAR WOULD NOT SHIFT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT AN UNKNOWN PIECE IN THE TRANSMISSION WAS CAUSING THE GEAR NOT TO SHIFT AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL OR WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000.

POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. THERE ARE NUMEROUS RECALLS FOR THIS BUT APPARENTLY NOT ON THIS VIN BECAUSE IT IS A 8/2012 BUILD. BUT IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM THEY HAVE WITH OVER 400,000 OTHER FUSIONS. WE WERE TURNING AROUND IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THE STEERING SUDDENLY BECAME VERY DIFFICULT. THE LIGHT TO CHECK POWER STEERING HAD BEEN ON FOR 5 MINUTES PRIOR TO THE FAILURE.

MY VEHICLE HAD A RECALL ON IT IN 2016 FOR THE DOOR LATCHES NOT WORKING. THE LATCHES WERE SUPPOSEDLY ALL REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE RECALL. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018,I OPENED MY BACK DOOR AND TRIED TO CLOSE IT AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH AGAIN. I HAD TO ROPE MY DOOR SHUT TO GET IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SUPPOSEDLY PUT ANOTHER LATCH ON THAT DOOR. ON FRIDAY MARCH 29 I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR UNLATCHED ON ITS OWN AGAIN. I TRIED TO SHUT IT AS I WAS DRIVING AND HAD TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP TO ME AND THEY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FULL PRICE FOR THE RECALL. THE DEALERSHIP I GOT THE CAR AT IS TOO FAR SO I CALLED THEM TO HAVE IT TOWED THERE BUT THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE RECALL. ON THE MORNING OF APRIL 1 I SPOKE WITH FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO. MY CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE AND FORD WILL NOT HELP WITH THE PROBLEM. FORD EXPECTS ME TO PAY $600 EVERY 6 MONTHS WHEN THEIR RECALLED PARTS STOPPED WORKING OR NOT DRIVE MY CAR AT ALL. MY DOOR FLUNG OPEN WHILE I WAS ON THE ROAD AND THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS I COULD HAVE FALLEN OUT OR HIT SOMEONE AND CAUSED A WRECK.I BELIEVE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE MY CAR IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION. MY DOOR HAS TO BE ROPED SHUT SO THAT NO ONE WILL TRY TO STEAL MY CAR OR SOMETHING OUT OF MY CAR. THE DOOR WILL NOT EVEN STAY CLOSED DUE TO THE WIND. THE RECALL MAY HAVE BEEN DONE BUT THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS.

RECENTLY WHEN I SLOW DOWN TO STOP AND THEN PRESS MY BRAKES, THE CAR OCCASIONALLY PROPELS FORWARD.

THE PASSENGER REAR DOOR ALL OF A SUDDEN WON'T LATCH. THERE HAVE BEEN 2 RECALLS REGARDING THE SITUATION AND I DON'T HAVE PAPER WORK BUT THEY SAID I TOOK IT IN FOR THE RECALL IN 2016. IF ANOTHER RECALL WAS ISSUED I'M 2017 REGARDING THE SAME SITUATION WHY WOULD MY REPAIR NOT BE UNDER THE RECALL?

HAVE NOT BROUGH TO DEALER YET, HOWEVER ALL MY LIGHTS LIT UP AND HAVE NOT TURNED OF SO FAR. ADVANCETRAC, BLINDSPOT, REAR CAMERA ASSIST, ABS, ETC.. BASICALLY ALL MY ASSIST HAVE COME ON. SINCE THEY HAVE COME ON MY STEERING HAS BEEN TOUGH, AS IF THE ELECTRICAL ASSIST WAS DISABLED BECAUSE ITS COMBINED WITH THE ABS SYSTEM. ACCORDING TO A YOUTUBE VIDEO POSTED ONLINE, THE PROBLEM IS A CORRODED OR MALFUNCTIONING WIRE IN THE ABS DRIVER (OR PASSENGER?) SIDE OF THE WHEEL WELL. "ISSUE WAS MY DRIVER FRONT TIRE... IT'S THE WIRE HARNESS THAT GOES BACK TO THE CPU FROM THE ABS SPEED SENSOR. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IN MY OPINION AS A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE WHICH CAUSES ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING ASSIST TO TURN OFF MAKING IT HARDER TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL" QUOTED FROM THE YOUTUBE VIDEO. WHERE THE WIRES CONNECT OR SOMETHING ALONG THAT LINE. IT WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED IF FORD LOOKED INTO THIS AND MADE A RECALL. THIS IS NOT SAFE CONSIDERING IT DISABLES SOME (OR ALL) OF YOUR STEERING CAPABILITIES. MORE DETAIL: ALL LIGHTS HAVE LIT UP BEFORE DURING THE FIRST SNOW-FALL (BUT SHORTLY AFTER TURNED OFF). I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 70,000 MILES ON IT, IN JULY OF 18'. IT IS NOW MARCH OF 19' AND WE'VE HAD WARM DAYS UP UNTIL TODAY, WHEN WE HAD SNOW AGAIN HERE IN CENTRAL NEW YORK. NOW THE PROBLEM ARISES AGAIN. PLEASE RECALL THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I TURN ON MY CAR THE WARNING MESSAGE SAID "POWER STEERING SERVICE NOW." WHEN I TRY TO GET OUT OF THE PARKING LOT OF THE STORE. HAD TO CALL A TOW TO GET IT TO A SHOP. SINCE FORD WAS ALL BOOKED UP AND DONT HAVE AN OPENING TILL 3-4 WEEKS LATER SO I TOOK IT TO A SHOP THAT WOULD TAKE A LOOK AT IT THE NEXT DAY. THE SHOP TOLD ME THAT MY RACK AND PINION WAS NOT WORKING. THEY SAID WAS THE CAR IN ANY ACCIDENT OR WENT INTO ANY POTHOLES I TOLD THEM NO. BECAUSE I MAINLY DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH HAS NO POTHOLES. THE SHOP TOLD ME TO GET A NEW RACK AND PINION IT WOULD COST ME $1000 OR GET A REBUILT ONE FOR $600. SO I WENT FOR THE CHEAPER OPTION BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR A NEW ONE. RIGHT NOW I'M JUST WAITING FOR THE CAR TO BE FIXED. THE CAR ONLY HAS 68000+ MILES AND ITS ALREADY BREAKING DOWN. IF THE CAR OF THAT YEAR HAS A RECALL GET THE RECALL FOR ALL OF THE CARS OF THAT YEAR NOT JUST SOME.

CAR WILL SHIFT TO NEUTRAL WHEN PLACE IN REVERSE. CAR WILL ALSO JERK WHEN CHANGING SPEEDS OF 10.
