Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I was driving down walker road going onto day hollow and when I got to the intersection there was no stop sign indicating to stop, when I got there the other side had no stop sign either and when I came to a stop a car flew by as we both had the right of way, I have dash cam video and if you don't fix it someone's gonna die right there. Nothing actually happened to my car.”

“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. Is not safe and I have replaced 3 times since 2014. It can happen while sitting and driving, does not matter. I have reached out to Ford they must not care because I have been told its not their problem, or to get over it.”

NHTSA complaint #11206018, filed 2019-05, 100,000 miles

“My driver side door will not open from the inside. This is a safety hazard because if something were to happen where I need to get out of the car fast such as a fire or anything I cant do so. My car was parked. I got out & when I tried to get back in I couldn't. I had to crawl from the passenger side to unlock the door, but it would not open from the inside.”

NHTSA complaint #10992397, filed 2017-05, 75,000 miles

“Squeaking noise coming from front axle (mostly on driver side) while driving and turning; sounds the most when outside temperature is higher (not so loud on cool days). Took it to dealer that sold the car (today 04/25/2016) to have suspension and power steering checked. I see online there are recalls on some Ford Fusion power steering? My VIN is not listed.”

NHTSA complaint #10861208, filed 2016-04, 64,200 miles

“2011 Ford Fusion while driving the power steering now and advancetrak warnings came on. Took to shop and was told rack and pinion needs to be replaced. Wanted to charge me $3000; I pick up my car and it's been working but I am afraid after reading everyone else's issues that this is bad.”
