Door handle mechanism made of plastic and breaks, preventing the locking and opening of door from the inside. The inability to leave your car without opening the door from the outside poses a serious safety risk to the driver and passenger in the need to exit a car quickly during emergency situations. This is a common occurrence from the self-repair videos I found online, and the method of failure and the symptoms of failure seem to be the same. My failure occurred when trying to pull the handle quickly breaks the plastic latch inside the mechanism and prevents the door from opening upon pulling the handle.

It started in February 2023 no warning lights nothing just when I came to a stop at a red light the car dies it will start right back most of the time but other times when you start it back it's like the starter stays engaged and makes a struttering sound and whole car shakes and you have to hurry and shut it back off and restart it again the longer you drive the car the more it dies when you come to a stop other times it may not do it for days I've almost been in 7 accidents that I've counted bc of this issue bc it dies and ppl think I should be moving and I can't or I just turn at a light and it will die and I can go until I restart it I also think it cause my battery to go out bc...

The power steering has failed intermittently (at least 5 separate occasions) while driving. The failure was inconsistent between times driven and parked. First time noticed, turned vehicle on and could barely move the wheel. Turned vehicle off and back on and didn't have an issue with the steering wheel or on the road and got home okay. The issue started out this way and then once it was consistent it was unable to operate the vehicle safely. This vehicle is our main vehicle so it happened to myself and to my husband while on his way home from work. However, when the power steering failed was extremely difficult to turn the wheel while driving. We took into dealership and the diagnostics was the electrical power steering is faulty and the traction control has failed. After looking into the issue - we believe our 2011 Ford Fusion may have been one...

I got this 2011 Ford fusion in 2020. The car runs good, but after a couple stops or when I'm slowing down the car turns off and my battery drains. I've replaced the battery, alternator, new shifter, I've taken it to mechanics and they can't figure out the problem, the car still turns off. Please help

While driving at freeway speed, my 2011 Ford Fusion Hybrid suddenly shutdown before I could pull over safely exposing me to extreme harm from other cars. I was unable to drive it home, as it no longer would safely function sufficient to get me home. Additionally, the airbag recall should have been remedied by now, Ford's response has not been timely.

On several occasions my teenage daughter has had her life put in danger by this mfg defect when the Ford Fusion suddenly flashes a red wrench warning sign and decelerates to a snail’s crawl in the middle of an interstate highway. This happens frequently on hotter days when the car has been run for over an hour. It is unacceptable, dangerous and sad that there’s been no required safety recall by Ford to fix this problem. A simple search online shows this to be happening repeatedly.

It started in January 2022 riding down the road, and the front left tire blew out. While replacing the tire is when the first, of more than a dozen lug nuts / studs/bolts broke off. This would make the car make a weird noise causing the tires to make a weird noise and it be the wheel wobbling. When you’d get up to 45mph or so it would cause the whole to shake and make a noise as well. I went to B&B Tire to have front pads, all rotors and a master cylinder replaced. They said 40% was left on pads and rotors. Also that the used master cylinder wasn’t any good? So, none of the maintenance seemed to resolve the brakes. They were kinda of stumped ?The lug nuts/ studs/ bolts all the way around have either had to be replaced, or sporadically came loose, broke off on...

Went to go start my vehicle one morning to take my kids to school and a message popped up on my dash stating "Power Steering Asst. Fault". So, I turn my vehicle off and on a couple of times (no more than 3 times) and got the same message. The steering wheel was hard to turn and it has come to my conclusion that my electric power steering went out which is making it hard to turn my steering wheel, and yes, my vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The safety of my kids and myself was put at risk because its hard trying to drive a vehicle without power steering. I'm scheduled to have my vehicle inspected Tuesday December 7, 2021 at my local Ford dealer. This occurred about 2 months ago, but every time I turned my vehicle off then back on the steering worked.

The contact owns a 2011 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while his wife was starting the vehicle, the power steering assist failed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was 3 months past the deadline for the steering recall repair. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 127,000. The VIN was unavailable.

STEERING ASSIST FAULT LIGHT CAME ON AS I WAS DRIVING AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER THE CAR I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR THE STEERING WAS WORKING. I WAS VERY HESITANT TO DRIVE THE CAR, MY HUSBAND DROVE THE THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER AND WE WERE INFORMED DURING THE INSPECTION THE STEERING GEAR WAS FAILING INTERNALY AND THEY RECOMMEND REPLACEMENT. APPARENTLY, I AM 5 MONTHS OUT OF THE 15N01 SAFETY RECALL. I AM WONDERING WHY SUCH A DANGEROUS SAFETY RECALL WOULD HAVE A TIME LIMIT? MY FORD FUSION CAME FROM THE HERMOSILLO ASSEMBLY PLANT DURING THE 9-7-2010 THRU 2-28-2012. I MISSED RECALL DUE TO THE 10 YEARS OF WARRANTY START DATE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS SEEMS LIKE A RECALL THAT SHOULD NOT EXPIRE. I SEE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF FORD FUSION WITH SAME COMPLAINT. IF FORD WAS ABLE...

The contact owns a 2011 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while driving at 80 mph, the advance track and "Service power steering soon" warning lights and messages were illuminated. The steering wheel inadvertently jerked out of the contact's hands 5 - 6 times. The contact pulled over and disconnected the fuse from the power steering assist module. The contact was able to drive to his residence without a power steering assist. The contact self-diagnosed the vehicle with a code reader that there was no communication to the power steering assist, and that the StabiliTrak wheel speed sensor on the front passenger’s side was faulty. The contact replaced the front passenger’s side wheel speed sensor. However, after the replacement, all the wheel speed sensors appeared faulty on the code reader. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact to take the...

I let my 16 year old daughter use my 2011 Ford Fusion SEL. Last Thursday she and my 15 year old daughter were leaving school and suddenly she could not steer. They were both very frightened. There was an error message Power Steering Assist Fault. I came to the school, let them drive my SUV home, and although I have driven many vehicles over the years without power steering it was very difficult to drive. I understand there was a recall in 2015 for this issue but not for Fusions with 3.5 L engines. Why? There have been many complaints and it's only a matter of time before someone gets killed. Please recall this. I can not afford to have this fixed and I don't want to sell a deadly car.

I’ve had this car for about four years and since I’ve gotten it once in a while I will have a power steering failure where the steering wheel becomes very hard to Turn and very dangerous to drive. Are usually will turn the car on and then turn it off and turn it back on and it goes away. I’ve also have taken it to the dealership and they said they cannot do anything about it there’s no recall on it. Right now the car is undrivable because the power steering is not functioning properly

I have safety concern with my vehicle, because if I am driving there’s a triangle shape light that pops up and when it happened it automatically reduces the speed of the car and sometimes shuts it off while other drivers are driving behind me. This happens to me frequently and the most recent was yesterday 8/9/2021 at a traffic light the vehicle completely shuts off and this is very concerning with my safety and that of my family and I don’t know the problem and how to get it fix. This is a major safety issue and I hope to get an answer from you people and have the problem taking care of.

WHEN MY WIFE GOT IN HER CAR TO GO TO WORK, THE DRIVER DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH. WHEN PUSHING THE DOOR ALL THE WAY TO THE CLOSED POSITION IT APPEARED AS IF IT WAS SHUT, BUT THERE WAS NEVER ANY FORCE HOLDING THE DOOR IN PLACE. WE MANAGED TO GET THE DOOR TO APPEAR CLOSED BY ME PUSHING IT SHUT AND HER HITTING THE LOCK BUTTON FROM THE INSIDE. AT THIS POINT, IF SHE ONLY PUSHED OUT A LITTLE BIT ON THE DOOR, IT SEEMED THE LATCH WOULD HOLD. HOWEVER, SHE TOLD ME IT FLUNG OPEN WHEN SHE MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN TO DROP IT OFF AT THE MECHANIC'S. THIS HAPPENED WITHOUT WARNING. THERE HAS A NEVER BEEN ANY PROBLEM WITH THE LATCH OF THE DRIVER DOOR. THIS VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN WE DISCOVERED THE ISSUE.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, DRIVING TO WORK IN RAIN AND WET ROAD CONDITIONS. DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS TRAVELING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION WITH A PUDDLE ON THE ROADWAY. I FELT THE ABS ENGAGE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSATE. THE BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE FELT FIRM PRIOR TO THE ABS ENGAGING. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO REMAIN IN MOTION WHEN I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THIS TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SOFT AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR BOARD BEFORE THE BRAKES BEGAN TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLES STOPPING DISTANCE INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO WORK AND HOME, BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL CONTINUED TO REMAIN SOFT AND DID NOT ENGAGE BRAKES UNTIL REACHING THE FLOOR. I CHECKED FOR OBVIOUS LEAKS AROUND THE BRAKE CALIBERS, WITH NONE NOTED, AND THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS AT THE FULL LEVEL IN THE FLUID...

THERE IS DELAY IS GEAR, HARSH SHIFTING FROM PARK AND ALSO WHILE DRIVING. FORD DEALERSHIP FAILS TO SERVICE AIRBAG RECALL AND THROTTLE BOTTLE RECALL. FORD SAYS F635 TRANSMISSION IS 'SERVICE-FREE' AND TRANSMISSION FLUID DOESN'T NEED REPLACED UNTIL 150K MILES. AT 140K NOW, MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION IS FAILING COMPLETELY. EVER SINCE FIRST OWNING THE FUSION, THE CAR HAS ROUGH AND DELAYED SHIFTING THROUGH PARK-REVERSE-NEUTRAL-DRIVE-LOW AND THROUGH DRIVE GEARS 1-6. QUITE DANGEROUS TO HAVE THIS OCCUR WHEN DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS THROUGH MOUNTAINS. FORD IS A CRIMINAL COMPANY - I WANT THEM TO BUY THIS JUNK OF A CAR BACK FROM ME. ABSOLUTE GARBAGE COMPANY AND GARBAGE CAR.

2011 FORD FUSION OWNER: POSSIBLE WELD ISSUES ON THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS CAUSING THE NOISE CONCERNS AND REQUIRE REPAIR FOR THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS FROM MANUFACTURER. IT MAY BE THE JOUNCE BUMPER RUBBING AGAINST DRY STRUT PLATE CAUSING AN ABRASION NOISE FROM THE STRUT AREA - BIG ASSUMPTION HERE. NOISE HAPPENS IN WARMER MONTHS OVER 50 DEGREES AND GETS QUIET ON COLDER DAYS. IT ALSO GET QUIETER DRIVING OVER 60 MPH. WHATEVER IT IS, THE SWOLLEN PARTS ARE EXTREMELY NOISY, EXTREMELY, AND CONCERNING. FROM RESEARCH, THIS ISSUE MAYBE HAPPENING TO 2006-2015 FORD FUSION VEHICLES. A FEW HUNDRED FUSION OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED HERE ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE: HTTPS://REPAIRPAL.COM/SQUEAKS-AND-CREAKS-OVER-BUMPS-AND-TURNING-235. IT IS COSTING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR OWNERS TO ATTEMPT A FIX WITH NO RESULTS. I AM WRITING AS I WOULD LIKE RESULTS AFTER OWNING MY CAR 2 YEARS WITH THIS HORRIBLE CONDITION TAKING PLACE. THIS IS WORTH A RECALL. THANK YOU.

WHILE DRIVING, AT POSTED SPEED, 40MPH ....ALL AT ONCE, THERE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF ACCELERATION, A VERY ROUGH IDLE TO THE ENGINE AND A WRENCH ICON SHOWED ON THE DASH. I HAD TO QUICKLY PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE AGAIN THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO RESET AND THE WRENCH ICON DISAPPEARED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEIR COMPUTER TOOLS WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG (CODES WITH A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK). CAR SEEMED TO RUN FINE FOR APPROXIMATELY THE NEXT 500 MILES AND THEN, WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSIER ROAD AT 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE DID THE EXACT SAME THING, AGAIN CAUSING ME TO NEED TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT AND PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

THE BLOWER MOTOR CONNECTOR AND BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR WILL MELT WITH USE, WHICH CAUSES SMOKING TO COME FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOD UNDER THE GLOVE BOX.

AFTER CLIMBING OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND WALKING AROUND THE CAR THE DRIVER'S DOOR DID OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE. FORD LISTS A RECALL FOR 2013-2014 FUSION, BUT NOT EARLIER YEARS.

THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE OF MY 2011 FORD FUSION WILL NOT OPEN. NOT ONLY IS THIS AN INCONVENIENCE, IT'S ALSO DANGEROUS. IN AN ACCIDENT EVERY SECOND COUNTS. IF YOU CAN'T ESCAPE YOUR VEHICLE THE RESULTS COULD BE FATAL. I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THE DOOR HANDLE PROBLEM IS PREVALENT WITH 2006-2012 FUSIONS, AS EVIDENT BY THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS. THERE IS EVEN A WORK AROUND TRICK POSTED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE AUTONATION FORD WESTLAKE DEALERSHIP QUOTED $212.59 TO REPAIR MY HANDLE. MY INTAKE REPRESENTATIVE QUOTED THE COST OF REPAIR WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING IT UP BECAUSE HE'S PROCESSED SO MANY, MANY REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER SHOULD VOLUNTARILY ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THE CAR

MY WIFE UPON RETURNING HOME COULD NOT OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I HAD TO OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. I LATER READ THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A NUMBER OF PEOPLE AND ONE TEMPORARY SOLUTION IS TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW AND OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. I ALSO HAVE READ THAT 2010, 2013 AND 2014 FORD FUSIONS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT NOT 2011. I HAVE HOWEVER FOUND THAT A NUMBER OF OWNERS OF 2011 FUSIONS HAVE ALSO HAD THIS PROBLEM. OF COURSE THE CAR WAS OUT OF GEAR, TURNED OFF, AND STATIONARY.
