2011 ford fusion driver side door wont open from inside when stationary on 7/24/2017 out of nowhere the drivers side door would not open from the inside i have looked up this complaint and multiple people have reported the same issue with this model car. Ford did a recall for 2010 and 2013-2014 models but not for the 2011 models. When you go pull the door handle the door doesn't open and i have to roll the window…

The latch on the passenger side door will not function, causing the door to fly open when driving the vehicle. Even when closed and locked, when you open the drivers side door, the door unlocks an door opens. It is currently at ford to be fixed. There has been previous recalls on the 2013 fusion, and this car is not listed as a recall??? Seems like the same problem to me, and it is costly to fix! Currently at the…

2011 ford fusion owner: possible weld issues on the lower control arms causing the noise concerns and require repair for the lower control arms from manufacturer. It may be the jounce bumper rubbing against dry strut plate causing an abrasion noise from the strut area - big assumption here. Noise happens in warmer months over 50 degrees and gets quiet on colder days. It also get quieter driving over 60 mph. Whatever…

When i turn or go over bumps the car makes a loud squeeking/grinding noise. This started to occur after my power steering assist was replaced a month ago. Several reviews also state this is a very expensive fix. My car only has 60k miles on it for a 2011. This is completely unacceptable!

Door handles do not open from the inside at all. The only way out is to roll the windows down and open from the outside. This happens all the time, other ford models have been recalled for the same issue. It is all the time, it doesn't matter if you're parked or driving the doors will not open at all from the inside.

My driver side door will not open from the inside. This is a safety hazard because if something were to happen where i need to get out of the car fast such as a fire or anything i cant do so. My car was parked. I got out & when i tried to get back in i couldn't. I had to crawl from the passenger side to unlock the door, but it would not open from the inside.

Estimated cost of repair will be roughly $100 including labor and ford has refused to cover the cost of repair per…

My door latch broke on the car. My teenager got in the car and the door wouldn't close. I couldn't ride home with it in that condition. I see it's a common problem with fords, but my year of fusion is not on any recall list. It definitely should be because that is a very real safety issue.

Driver door inside handle inoperative. Unable to exit vehicle without opening driver side window and opening door. The same problem happened to my 2008 fusion. This should be a recall notice from ford and not normal wear and tear.

I am unsure if my car was included in the air bag recall that i found via google, i was never notified for several recalls involving my car. Now the ford dealership has informed me that there is an issue with my car as well as several others of the same make and model with code issues. These code issues cause the power steering to fail without warning and cause loss of control as well as something involving service…

I parked my vehicle and went to open my doors and the driver and passenger sides doers would not open from the inside. I had to proceed to unlock the door manually and roll the window down, place my arm out the window to open the door from the outside. The passenger had to do the same for their door as well. We are both senior citizens with disabilities. Are there any recalls on this issue? I'm concerned for the…

The drivers side exterior door does not work. I know 2 other cars with the same issue. It just goes out. I notice that there is a recall for 2012 ford fusions not 2011. This is a serious hazard if there is a fire in the car or an accident you are not able to get out of the car. Very dangerous and clearly unsafe

My ford fusion was parked and i suddenly am unable to open the drivers side door from the inside. I have to lower the window all the way and stick my arm out to open from the outside handle. My windows are electronic and freeze shut in the winter (mn resident) making me unable to open the door at all from the inside. I will be unable to get out of my vehicle in the winter and could be trapped in an accident or…

Takata recall. I was unable to open driver's door from the inside. Took it to my ford dealer. They found a broken inner door handle. I was parked when that happened. It cost me $217.83 to get it repaired. Isn't this a recall? If not, it should be!

Squeaking noise coming from front axle (mostly on driver side) while driving and turning; sounds the most when outside temperature is higher (not so loud on cool days). Took it to dealer that sold the car (today 04/25/2016) to have suspension and power steering checked. I see online there are recalls on some ford fusion power steering? My vin is not listed.

Both front seat, internal door latches have broken. The driver's side went first, followed by the passenger side, both received only normal use. Now, to exit the vehicle, the window must be rolled down and the door opened from the outside latch, or a two-hand technique can be learned to open from the inside. This prevents speedy egress in the event of an emergency situation i.e. Floods, fires, etc. The car currently…
