2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid service brakes problems

“I own a 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid. The vehicle has a recurring loss-of-braking problem associated with the ABS/ AdvanceTrak system. While driving, the vehicle can suddenly lose normal braking ability and does not stop as it should when I press the brake pedal. The ABS, AdvanceTrak, traction control/hydroplaning and other warning lights illuminate at the same time. I have had to use the emergency/parking brake to help stop the vehicle.The exact underlying component causing the failure is UNKNOWN. The ABS module/ ABS hydraulic control unit (HCU) has been diagnosed and replaced more than once, and the vehicle has also been repeatedly reprogrammed and diagnostic codes cleared. The vehicle has been inspected by three different Ford dealerships for the same recurring problem. The dealerships have performed diagnostic work and repairs, including replacement of ABS-related components. Most recently, 1 paid approximately $1,600 to a Ford dealership for an ABS-related repair. I was told the vehicle was repaired and picked it up on [10-6-26]. Less than 24 hours later, while driving, the vehicle again lost normal braking ability. The same warning lights appeared, including…”

“I own a 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid and am reporting a recurring and serious braking problem. On XXX, while driving to pick up my mom and my [XXX] son, I pressed the brake pedal to stop, but the vehicle did not stop normally. I repeatedly tried to brake, but the vehicle took much longer to stop than it should have. The brake pedal became spongy and did not have normal resistance. The BRAKE, ABS, and AdvanceTrac warning lights appeared. The vehicle’s computer/system was reset afterward, and the vehicle drove normally for several days. On XXX, the same braking problem happened again while i was driving to go pick up my [XXX] son from school. The brake pedal became spongy, and repeatedly pumping the brakes did not properly stop the vehicle. This time I had to use the emergency/parking brake to help bring the vehicle to a stop. The same BRAKE, ABS, and AdvanceTrac warning lights appeared.After this incident, the rear brakes were replaced and a new ABS Anti-Lock Brake Pump (part number 9E58-2C555-AF) was installed. The computer/system was also reset again. On XXX, the BRAKE, ABS, and AdvanceTrac warning lights came back on again despite the new brake components and…”

“SUBJECT: Fraudulent Recall Completion / Incomplete Remedy resulting in Component Failure (Recall 19S54 / NHTSA 19V904) I am writing to file an emergency safety complaint regarding a fraudulently cleared safety recall on my 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid. According to Ford's internal OASIS database, Safety Recall 19S54 (NHTSA Campaign 19V904) was marked as "completed" under a previous owner. However, physical inspection of the vehicle proves that the mandatory federal remedy was never executed. The master cylinder still retains the original factory DOT 3 cap, and the system was never upgraded to DOT 4 fluid. Because the servicing dealership falsified the repair documentation and left the corrosive DOT 3 fluid in the system, my vehicle has now suffered the exact catastrophic safety failure the recall was meant to prevent. The ABS Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) internal valves have seized. The brake pedal is heavily compromised, and the vehicle is an active, severe safety hazard to drive. I am the second owner of this vehicle. I unknowingly purchased a car with a fraudulently cleared safety defect. Because this failure is a direct result of an incomplete federal safety…”

“There have been many recalls on the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid, according to Ford mine has already had the repairs done yet the issues I’ve been having all match recalls. I’ve had issues with my passenger seat, the air bag system light is always on and the seat controls no longer work. The clockspring system is pure trash, there is no reason I’ve had to replace it twice now in the 2 months I’ve had this car. My ABS system keeps going in and out and says service advancetrac system. My hybrid battery rarely goes into hybrid anymore causing my mpg to drop. There were a few other things but that’s what’s coming out mind now.”

“On June 22 myself and my wife were pulling out of the Food Lion Parking Lot. As we proceeded out to the main Road the gas pedal stuck. The car kept accelerating and know matter what I did I could free the gas pedal. Because of that we hit 3 cars in the intersection. Our car literally exploded putting Myself and my wife in the hospital .My wife has had 3 surgeries for a broken pelvis.She is still in serious condition.Myself I suffered 3 broken ribs and a lacerated liver. Ford should be held accountable for our terrible pain and suffering.?”
