    Takata recall i received the notice to have my airbags replaced & bolton ford has not responded. My driver door will not open from the inside of the vehicle & my brakes need me to go all the way to the floor before the brakes stop the car. Car was stationery when driver door would not open & driving coming to a stop when brakes need pushing to the floor to work properly.

    My driver seat heater was getting very hot, after a few times of this intense heat it now doesn't turn on at all. I have read a lot of others have had this same issue with the driver seat. Considering i only use it 4 months out of the year, and usually only 5 or 10 minutes at a time, there should be no reason that it have burnt out.

    3 issues: i saw someone else post this- my break pedal is also soft and goes all the way down to the floor after antilock breaks are engaged (like on icy or wet roads). There is no other time this occurs- as it's the breaks, i've been very mindful of it. I have also had the breaks replaces so i don't think it's actually the breaks but rather somewhere within the breaking mechanics. Second, only when turning left, i…

    I was a passenger in a 2009 ford fusion sedan. I am a state employee and i was traveling with a coworker, who was driving. We were legally stopped at an intersection waiting for the vehicle in front of us to turn left. We were rear-ended by a hit and run driver estimated by police on the scene to have been traveling at 50 mph. The majority of the impact was on the rear passenger side. We were pushed into the vehicle…

    We recently bought a 2009 ford fusion and so fare we love the car, but we both agree that the head rest should be a lot straighter like the person in the report odi case number: 10266857. We both have back and neck problems and if the head rest was a little straighter i think it would solve alot of my wife's problem. With my problem it would make a little better because i have a more seriously accident. I have…

    1.takata recall. 3-5 year waiting period and yet no repair. Also, if driver airbag is takata, why no recall or replacement? 2. Brakes will drop all the way to floor in emergency braking! Why no recall or fix? This is life threatening problem.

    Head Restraint · Seats

    Tl*the contact owns a 2009 ford fusion. The contact believes that the head restraint in the front seats should have been designed differently. She stated that they protrude forward too much and make it uncomfortable to drive because her head and back are not straight or aligned. She believes that the head restraints should be flatter. The failure mileage was 75 and current mileage was 2,100. Updated 05/14/09. *lj…

    Front seat head restraints are mounted at an extreme angle which forces your head forward at an uncomfortable angle. The head restraints need to be more straight up and down instead of curving forward. *tr
