Was driving down a busy road with my [XXX] and [XXX] , when all of a sudden my steering wheel got super tight and the car shut down. A message stating "power steering assist fault" popped up on my dashboard. There was ZERO warning before it happened. I just bought this car 3 months ago from a facebook marketplace car dealer. When this incident happened 2 weeks ago, I googled 2011 ford fusion recalls and it says NHTSA recalled in 2015. When I'm not understanding is why a VIN number makes a difference, when I'm having the problem on the type of year/model that was recalled. I have been informed about the customer satisfaction program, which expired years before I purchased the vehicle. Again, why should that fall on me?

I have owned car for almost 4 + years I was roughly at 128,000 when I purchase I gave 159,xxx miles on now. In the past 4 years tires replaced 2 times. I keep having issues with tires needing plugged in front. My brakes have been replaced 3 times rotors 2 times plus struts ball joints tie rod u name it repaired suspension system sucks. I’m sick of having same issues repair. I have thousands of dollars front suspension then always have to fix tires stop for air replace. Ridiculous. Everything has gone wrong with the suspension system. Shocks bad ball bearings. The premium aluminum rims eroding away. I think that is what cause tire issues non stop I’m sick of getting air!!! I can’t afford to keep repairing the steering has became awful pulls yes I’ve had alignments it’s all over the place feels loose makes all kinds of banging clunking noises the wheel locked up had smoke rolling out from front driver side. Smelled terrible car shaking all over around 45 mph . I have more in the front than car is worth transmission jumps all over or jerks hard into drive or reverse I had look at and repaired once all ready Door handles in side don’t work!! Check engine light always on the cap less fuel area is junk the ring came off. When pumping gas it doesn’t stop it now. So gas is usually on ground running down car side Headlight are always getting loose knocking out my headlights. for only have 30,000 from buying it I have spent as much buying the car the equals the cars repairs almost. Chunks of paint in front falls off below grille brakes/steering have defaulted and I have slid across intersection in winter I could have been seriously injured and of course another tire issue today I want my money back and the repair money!!! Paid 7,000 put $ into all the time invested roughly 12,000 all together for same [XXX] issues. Car value 3,000 Wtf. Make it right FORD!!!! Yr cars are junk on certain models recalls never knew they better be getting fix for free. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM

WHILE TURNING AND GOING SLOW THE STEERING MAKES A VERY BAD CREAKING SOUND THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE. HAVE NOTICED MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ON FUSIONS AND NOBODY KNOWS A FIX. I'M NOT SURE WHO WILL SEE THIS BUT IF IT IS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THESE AS IT IS VERY COMMON WITH FUSIONS FROM 2010-12.

TWO ISSUES: WHILE DRIVING ERROR MESSAGE MAINTENANCE POWER STEERING NOW CAME ON. AUTOMATIC STEERING WENT. TWICE AGAIN AFTER THE MECHANIC RESET IT. EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN. COULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER, (WALKER FORD, CLEARWATER, FL) AND ALTHOUGH THERE IS A RECALL IT DOESN'T APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX, IN THE $2000 RANGE. THE OTHER PROBLEM WHICH IS THE FIRST REASON WE WENT TO THE MECHANIC. THE FRONT END HAS BEEN MAKING NOISES, CREAKING AND CRUNCHING WHEN MAKING TURNS OR COLD. THAT ISSUE NEEDS CONTROL ARM REPLACED WHICH IS CONNECTED TO THE SUBFRAME VERY COSTLY. I HAVE SEEN BOTH THESE ISSUED ADDRESSED IN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE. FRONT SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM PROBLEM OF THE 2012 FORD FUSION 2 FAILURE DATE: 03/02/2019 THIS BELOW IS WHAT HAPPENED IN DETAIL. THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON INSIDE THE DASH AS I WAS DRIVING SO I DROVE ABOUT TO GET AIR. AFTER I PUT AIR IN THE TIRE,STARTED THE CAR AND IMMEDIATELY GOT A WARNING THAT POWER STEERING NEEDED SERVICING. THEN GOT ANOTHER WARNING THAT ADVANCE TRACK NEEDED SERVICING. ALL HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME AND THE POWER STEERING WAS COMPLETELY GONE OUT. CONTROLLING RACK NEEDS REPLACING. 2000 THE SERVICE DEPT SAID THE GEAR INSIDE THE POWER STEERING RACK HAS GONE BAD AND THE CONTROL ARMS IT SITS ON HAS WORN OUT THE GEAR THEREFORE NEEDING FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS COSTING $1500

I PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY, PARKED 2011 FORD FUSION AND THEN SHUT VEHICLE OFF. I RETURNED, STARTED VEHICLE, WENT TO START DRIVING MY VEHICLE OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND THE CAR STARTED BEEPING AND LISTED THAT THE POWER STEERING DID NOT WORK. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR STEERING: ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM FAILURE (15V340000 OR 15S18). I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND WILL ATTACH QUOTE WHICH THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS EXACTLY WHAT FORD'S RECOMMENDATION WAS. HOWEVER MY CAR DOESN'T FALL INTO THE CORRECT DATE FOR THIS RECALL, I AM HAPPY THAT I WAS NOT DRIVING 75MPH DOWN INSTERSTATE 70 IN WHEELING, WV OR DRIVING UP TO WEST LIBERTY, WV WHERE I WORK. EITHER COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT FOR ME, MY KIDS AND POTENTIALLY OTHER VEHICLES INVOLVED. THE CAR HAS ONLY 73,000 MILES ON IT ROUGHLY AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

ONE MORNING I STARTED MY CAR AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND A WARNING "POWER STEERING DEFAULT ASSIST" APPEARED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN RESTARTED AND THE POWER STEERING WAS FINE. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES IN FEBRUARY. AFTER THE 4TH OR 5TH WARNING APPEARED, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM. THE INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE COULD NOT DETECT A MALFUNCTION CODE. LAST WEEK IT HAPPENED AGAIN NOT JUST ONCE BUT TWICE WHILE I WAS PARKED IN A HOSPITAL PARKING DECK. AFTER THE THIRD TRY, THE STEERING RESET ITSELF. THE NEXT DAY THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP AND IT DID NOT RESET. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. NOW THEY WANT TO STICK ME WITH AT $2000.00 REPAIR STATING THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND THAT FORD DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL. I HAD THE CAR IN THE SHOP THREE TIMES IN 2014 FOR A PROBLEM WE THOUGHT WAS THE RACK AND PINION. AGAIN, BECAUSE THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THE CAR NOW HAS HAD MORE DAMAGE TO THE STEERING. THANKFULLY, MY SON AND I MADE IT HOME ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN AFTER HIS DOCTORS APPOINTMENT BEFORE THE CAR'S STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED UP.
