This is a common issue in 2010 fusions as you can find lots of similar experiences. while heading towards an exit on the highway going 70mph, the steering suddenly lost all power steering. two warnings appeared on the display saying "service advancetrac" and "power steer assist failure." everything returns to normal after restarting the car and it happens once again at random.
Electronic power steering suddenly failed, error message displayed: "power steering assist fault; service advancetrac". failure occurred at low speed, shortly after startup.
Service power steering light came on as i was driving home. the next morning i turned on the car and it said service power steering now. have seen that i am one of the many people having this issue. should be recalled and fixed not just the 2011 which is just one year newer.
I took my car to sheehy ford of marlow heights for the airbag recall repair. upon picking the car up after it was "fixed", there are now 3 lights on my dash that were not previously there. these lights are the airbag light, the stability control light, and the service wrench. the dealership will not cooperate as far as fixing this.

I was driving on hwy 23 when all of sudden the dash light came on saying default trac service soon. then my steering went out && it was like i had no power steering. about 2 weeks prior i had to have tyson rod ends put on inside & out after just having them replaced in april. my airbag light comes on saying passenger airbag. a noise like a rubbing/scraping noise every time i turn the steering wheel that i've had the car looked at several times.

Car is a 2010 ford fusion hybrid 93kmile. on november 14, 2019 at 7am, car was approaching to a traffic intersection. car did not stop when apply break hit on the back of van standing on the traffic light. used the hand break to slow down and since the speed was low when hit the front van. no major damage occur except scratch and escaped from accident. took to ford dealership in east widsor, nj (halman ford). after diagnosis the result shows the abs break control unit is not functioning and should be replaced. it cost $1588+ tax. called ford. they told they don't have any program for this issue and don't provide any assistance for repair.
The power steering stopped working. for about 1.5 months when i would turn on the vehicle the dash would notify of a power steering fault and power steering would not work (steering wheel near impossible to move). however, if i turned the car off and back on the fault would go away and power steering would return to normal. unfortunately now the power steering is permanently not working and the car is no longer safe to drive. stability control warning also came on immediately after. extremely glad power steering did not go out while i was driving, it would have likely caused me to crash since steering is so hard to use without power steering. i did some research ford has a recall for this exact issue for the 2011 and 2012 fusions but not the 2010 but appears the 2010 is affected by the same defect.
While driving my 2010 ford fusion the power steering stopped working and the car became difficult to maneuver. the information display said power steering assist fault. as i turned to get out of traffic a second message said service advancetrac.
I purchased a new 2010 ford fusion hybrid se from a ford dealership in fairfax, va. after owning the vehicle for approximately 9 years, the vehicle no longer operates in electric mode (it only operates in gas mode). my average mpg has dropped from 37-40 mpg to 25-27 mpg. i took it to a ford dealership service center manassas, va in nov 2019 who indicated they are aware of the problem but they have no solution to fix it (they initially were going to charge me $150 diagnostic fee but waived the fee and sent me home). there are numerous reports in ford vehicle forums with the same complaint. consensus is that ford programmed the electronic mode to stop working after 9 years. when i purchased the vehicle, there was no disclosure that i would no longer have a properly working hybrid after 9 years. this end-of-life decision would have to be programmed into the vehicle's ecu at the time of manufacturing and should have been disclosed by ford at the time of purchase. had ford disclosed this, it would have directly impacted my decision to purchase the vehicle. the fix appears to be reprogramming the vehicle to make it ...
Well i get out this morning to take my kids to school when i crank the car and we start riding the service advancetrac light came on in blank then the service power steering light came on. so after i drop them off i was on my way home the light continue to blink as i pulled up in my driveway the steering wheel start to get hard to steer so i'll park got out well so i'll part pop the hood got out and check for power steering on to realize that is not one because it's electric. so when i look online to my surprise everybody with a ford fusion is having the same as a problem different year different engine size but same problem no one seems to have a solution because it's many things that can cause the problem is very stressful i think y'all should have that on recall to help better assist people with the problems. unfortunately i hate the fact that my my warranty is up as father with a family of five don't have the money to afford to pay for to get it fixed.
Advance trac light and power steering light came on this morning dont know why car doesn't take power steering fluid this is the first time this has happened since 2015 when i first purchased it.
The car stalls and shifts gears after stopping at a red light or stop sign then after moments of pressing the gas pedal it spins off and jerks really hard on a freeway it rides very well it only stalls after waiting at a light or stop sign or tapping onto the break also the car has new break pads but it sounds like something is scrubbing and while i was backing out of a parking lot the car made a huge popping and threw me back while my foot was on the break it scared me so i got out to see what happened and i didn't hit anything nor did anything hit me so i tried to drive home and the car jerked the entire way home almost
When i started up the car & was going to pull out the light for passenger air bag came on, then i turn my wheel & there is like a grinding sound. i pulled on side of road & had someone come check it. they said same thing i did. i thought it was something rubbing against the tire, but when we looked there was nothing. then he kept turning the wheel & it sounded more in the steering column. my husband checked underneath the car when i got home & thank goodness he did because the tie rod ends inside & out were so bad that i was lucky to have not of crashed. still the steering is making that loud grinding, screeching sound. air bag & trac lights come on occasionally still also. really feel unsafe driving my car here the last few months. ive had it parked for the last month & bought just something to get around for now til i can afford to have it fixed or they have a recall on these. ive seen so many other people with same problems & i also seen they recalled the 2011 for same issues. why not ...
