Verbatim from NHTSA complaints, newest first
“I am reporting a serious and ongoing safety issue involving my 2015 Ford Fusion. The vehicle experiences intermittent power steering failure while driving. The steering assist will suddenly disengage and re-engage without warning, making the vehicle extremely difficult to control. This condition becomes even more dangerous in wet weather, where the vehicle is sometimes nearly undriveable. Additionally, I am now experiencing a popping noise in the steering wheel. This raises concern of a possible mechanical failure consistent with known recalls involving steering wheel bolt defects that could result in the steering wheel detaching. These issues are consistent with known recalls, including: - Power Steering Failure Recall (15V340000) - Steering Wheel Bolt Recall (18V167000 / 18S08) Despite these known safety defects, Ford has refused to repair the issue, stating that the recall has expired. This presents a serious safety hazard, including risk of loss of steering control, crash, injury, or death. I am requesting immediate investigation and enforcement of manufacturer responsibility for this safety-related defect.”
“Front passenger door stopped closing on the 10th of July without any warning so I am forced into driving with a partially closed door tied with rope and I see that multiple people have filed a complaint about the same problem.”
“My sun visor came off when I went to put it down while I was driving which almost led to a car accident on the highway. The one in my passenger side is doing the same thing.”
“The latch on the driver door is stuck and I am unable to close my door. My car is a 2015 and I bought it used. I have not received a recall on this. I saw that there was a recall for this reason but it does not cover my year. What do I do?”
“TRUNK RANDOMLY OPENS ON ITS OWN. OPENS CONSTANTLY THROUGHOUT DAY EVEN WHEN DRIVING DOWN ROAD. THINGS HAVE BLOWN OUT OF TRUNK WHILE DRIVING AND HAVE CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO PULL OVER ON SIDE OF ROAD AND POTENTIALLY CAUSE ACCIDENTS.”
“I RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL 20S15 / 20V-177 APPROXIMATELY 7 WEEKS AGO, AND MY DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE AND UNWILLING TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT AFTER 6 ATTEMPTS AT CONTACT AND SCHEDULING. THE DEALERSHIP IN QUESTION IS BIG MIKE NAUGHTIN FORD 150 S HAVANA ST AURORA, CO 80012”
