2010 FORD FUSION Tires Problems

DASH PANEL INDICATED DOOR AJAR, EMERGENCY AND OTHER BRAKES WERE ENGAGED, TIRE PRESSURE LOW, INTERIOR LIGHTS CAME ON, BLINKERS NO LONGER WORK. THIS ALL HAPPENED SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING DOWN A FLAT STREET, 25 MPH, WEATHER WAS 65 DEGREES, DRY WEATHER, DURING THE DAY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY, MY LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON AND I COULD TELL IT WAS VERY LOW DUE TO MY ABILITY TO STEER. I PULLED IN A GAS STATION AND TRIED TO FILL THE TIRE WITH AIR, BUT IT WAS BLOWN OUT ON THE INSIDE WALL AND REMAINED FLAT. I PUT THE SPARE TIRE ON AND WHEN I BEGAN TO PULL AWAY, I REALIZED I HAD NO POWER STEERING. WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON IN SUCCESSION FOR LOW TIRE PRESSURE (STILL?), SERVICE POWER STEERING AND SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. I WAS ABOUT 40 MILES FROM HOME AND HAD TO DRIVE IN SLOW LANES AS STEERING WAS VERY DIFFICULT. I READ SOME MESSAGE BOARDS REGARDING AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS ISSUE, BUT CAN'T FIND A COMMON SOLUTION THAT HAS WORKED. SOME SAY TO JUST TURN OFF AND RESTART, OTHERS ARE SAYING THEY SPEND $1500+. I AM WORRIED THAT I WILL SPEND THE...

THE SERVICE ADVANCED AUTO TRACTION,SERVICE POWER STEERING AND LOW TIRE PRESSURE ALARMS ALL CAME SAME TIME AND UNABLE TO TURN STEERING ALL OF SUDDEN.THE PRESSURE ON TIRE WAS GOOD BUT STILL SHOWING LOW TIRE PRESSURE. *TR

WHEN MY TIRE PRESSURE GETS LOW -NOT ACCOMPANIED BY THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT- THE ADVANCTRAC LIGHT AS WELL AS SERVICE POWER STEERING LIGHT COME ON THE COMMAND CENTER. I AM ABLE TO DRIVE IT SAFELY, BUT THE NEXT TIME THAT I TURN MY CAR ON AFTER THAT, THE POWER STEERING HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUT. *TR

I HAVE JUST HAD THIS FIXED 2 WEEKS AGO FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. JANUARY 24, 2013 MY POWER STEERING AND ADVANCE TRAC LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANICS TODAY AND THEY TELL ME THAT THE TIRES MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED AND I HAVE EVEN DONE 60,000 MILES ON THE TIRES-YET THEY ARE WORN OUT ALREADY. I KNEW I NEEDED TIRES, MY INSPECTION IS DUE NEXT MONTH. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 YEARS AND I AM ALREADY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT. I'M ANGRY! I THOUGHT FORDS WERE BETTER BUILT NOW-A-DAYS. WRONG............I'M SO DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS CAR. FAIRLY NEW AND HAVING WHAT I CONSIDER MAJOR PROBLEM. *TR

I OWN A 2010 FORD FUSION AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES ARE SOFT, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECK TO SEE IF I NEEDED NEW BRAKE PADS OR WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. I WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALER FOR POSSIBLE FACTORY WARRANTY BRAKE CONDITION, STATING IT HAS TSB ON BRAKE BOOSTER SWITCH, BRAKE PEDAL LEVEL SWITCH PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY STATE THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES, BUT WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE BRAKES ARE NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY. THE BRAKE PEDAL IS GOING DOWN TO THE FLOOR WHEN BRAKING IS NOT A NORMAL OPERATION, DRIVING THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS. THE BRAKES FEEL LIKE A SPONGE AND I FEAR ONE DAY THIS CAR IS NOT GOING...

I HAVE A 2010 FORD FUSION HYBRID WHICH I LOVE DRIVING AND I BELIEVE IT IS ONE OF THE BEST CARS OUT THERE. THE PROBLEM IS WITH 12,000 MILES ON THE CAR THE TIRES WERE WEARING OUT VERY FAST AND AT 18,000 THEY WERE WORN WHERE IT WASN'T SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAD TO BUY NEW TIRES. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NO WARRANTY ON THE TIRES AND THEY WANTED $1182.00 FOR REPLACEMENT ONES. MIND YOU, I BUY THE THREE YEAR FULL MAINTENANCE ON THE VEHICLE AS WELL. I HEARD FROM OTHER FUSION DRIVERS THAT EVEN BUYING NEW TIRES, THE WEAR IS VERY FAST. SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG HERE AND FORD IS NOT ADMITTING IT. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2010 FORD FUSION AND HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH ONE TIRE LOSING AIR FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW BUT THEY HAD BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE LEAK UNTIL RECENTLY. FINALLY AFTER GOING TO TWO TIRE CENTERS ON FRIDAY THEY WERE ABLE TO FIND THAT, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE TIRE/RIM THAT CAUSED AN INDENT IN THE TIRE AT THE INNER BEAD THAT CAUSED A SLOW SEEPING LEAK. I HAVE A STATEMENT FROM THE OWNER OF THAT TIRE CENTER THAT IN NO WAY WOULD A SEAL BE A PERMANENT FIX. I THEN HAD TO TAKE IT INTO THE FORD SERVICE CENTER WERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE BEADS WERE NOT SEALING TO THE ACTUAL RIM. A BEAD SEAL WAS DONE ON ALL FOUR TIRES BUT NEITHER THE TIRE OR THE RIM WAS REPLACED. I REQUESTED A NEW TIRE BUT WAS TOLD THAT THIS...
