My car is doing exactly what the current recall is for, but the dealership said my car isn't under recall. i am having to press my brakes much harder in order for the braking to engage. i was driving to and from work and had to press my brakes all the way down before it would start to eventually slow down.
Was driving out of a parking lot and tried to brake. suddenly my brake light, abs light, and service advancetrac lights come on the dash. the pedal goes all the way to the floor and my car is not stopping. to avoid getting t boned i have to pull the emergency brake. brought the car to get fixed and my abs/ hcu unit failed. the cost to repair was crazy high. looked it up and ford is currently doing a recall for 2006-2010 ford fusions for the exact same reason my brakes failed. they are not including hybrids in this recall for some reason. i would highly encourage ford to include hybrids in the recall as clearly it doesn't matter if it is a hybrid or not. ford fusions from 2006-2010 are having this issue and it could have happened to me on the highway. would have been fatal at that point because with no brakes going 65 mph, not good!
Recall: 19s54 is only allowing fusions manufactured up to 07/09. my fusion was made in sept. at the mexico plant. vehicle exhibits exact symptoms and is currently exhibiting them. second time this has happened. last year had abs event and pedal traveled further. valve became unstuck by itself and was fine until the other day when another abs event occurred and pedal is traveling further now. latest event, was traveling down slight hill on a snowy road and needed to stop. it was a long abs event. after coming to complete stop, waited a minute or so and began traveling with traffic again. went to slow down/stop again and noticed pedal is traveling further. this vehicle should be included in this recall

When my fusion hits a bump my brakes pedal goes almost to the floor. when i brake hard and turn wheels my brake pedal goes almost to the floor. when i brake on wet pavement my brake pedal almost goes to the floor. when my brake pedal almost goes all the way to the floor and i have to pump my to get the car to stop. the brakes get better in a few days after abs valves closes. this has been going on for over two years. this happen today when i was stopping behind a car to make a turn and my pedal went to the floor and i was just able to stop in time before i hit the car. i know the abs module needs to be replace at a cost of $1200 to me. i also know this a common problem in the ford fusion that ford will not fix!
While driving on a city street i came to a stop light applied my brakes and they went almost to the floor. i took my 2010 ford fusion to laird noller ford repair shop and was told my abs hydraulic pump was faulty and needs to be replace at a cost of $1,300.00. while the repair was reviewing my brake issue a worker moved my vehicle knowing it had no brakes and caused damage to the rear bumper and fender. i would think a brake problem of this nature which could have caused the death of my children and i would be on the recall list. in addition, i should be reimbursed for this repair since it is a manufactory fault and not caused by me.
Losing all brakes after abs kicks in. was told it needs an abs control module that has to be replaced by the dealer.
Anti lock brake pump failure. brakes failed, went to floor, almost crashed car. numerous complaints online, common problem and safety issue ford should fix.
In motion on highway with cruise control car dashboard shows 'stop safely now' loose acceleration. turn car off then back on and can drive. check engine light on. told vacuum pump creating issue. replaced and car okay. while in motion on highway during acceleration 'stop safely now' entire car shuts down while driving. loss of brakes, steering, acceleration. get car towed back to shop and told acid leak degraded wire harness. but also told they can't ensure the car will be fixed from repairing. how does a battery leak so bad without any cracks. no shop can confirm the acid leak is causing the brake issue. possible abs module, electronic control, o2 sensor replacement too.
When applying the brakes, if i encounter a situation that would engage abs, instead of abs turning on, the brake suddenly travels to the floor. this has happened 3 times in the past year. private mechanic could not diagnose. ford dealer service bleed the lines and could not guarantee problem was eliminated. no codes are produced.
