My 2010 ford fusion at 33,000 miles required new rear brakes and rotors, because the brakes were grinding and appeared unsafe. This was not covered by warranty because the calipers were not found to be defective. This appears to be a design flaw that will likely reoccur if not addressed by ford, and could put at risk the safety of myself and my family. *tr
