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.
My powersteering and advantrac both are still acting crazy. i was told that my vin wasn't apart of the same recall that is currently issued for my 2012 ford fusion. at random times the powersteering notfication and advanctrac alert with come and my steering will with completely lock up with very little time from the alert. this has happened with both intown and highway driving.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 ford fusion. the contact stated that while driving at 30 mph, the power steering and the traction control failed causing the vehicle to crash into a ditch. the contact crashed into a pole coming to a stop and the air bags did not deploy. the contact stated that the maintenance service track and the service power steering now warning messages illuminated prior to the failure. the police were notified and a report was filed. no medical attention was required at the scene, however, the mother and the contact suffered from back pain after the crash. the vehicle was first towed to a tow yard and later to the contact's home. the vehicle was not destroyed; the vehicle had not been repaired or taken to a dealer. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed her that there was a recall on her vehicle nhtsa recall number: 19v001000 (air bags) .the failure mileage was 188,000.
Steering wheel is hard to steer and a message keeps coming up on the dash saying 'service track'
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.
While driving the car on both the highway and on city streets the steering locked and the power assist quit. the mil traction control symbol lit and the warning center said it was disabled. the mil steering assist control symbol lit and the warning center said it was disabled. in both driving instances the steering wheel was being turned from moderate (interstate highway speed) turning to sharp turning (city street speed). in both instances i was able to avoid hitting close, surrounding vehicles and in the case of the city occurrence, pedestrians. in both instances i pulled the vehicle to the side of the road and shut off the engine and accessories. i waited about a minute and performed an engine re-start. the mil's were not lit and the power steering assist returned. in both instances the same condition appeared about 20 minutes later, and a engine stop/re-start had to be performed. i have included photos of the dashboard information center. this is a 2016 fusion with 65,000 miles and i believe there is an electrical problem with the steering rack.
Electric steering start on hwy acting up phone ford and they says no recall on them but i know owners that have had the same problem phone ford and they said nothing they can do but the one year nwer is recall yet the the i have has the same parts see the link for my 2010 fusion https://ca.search.yahoo.com/search?p=2010+ford+fusion+steering+problems&fr=yfp-t&fp=1&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=utf-8
