Went to use car remote and did not work, bought another key and when my service tried to program it they found out the 15604 f module was bad. They call ford and ford told them it is back order all over the country. If they are replacing this many module then ford has a problem with this part.

I bought the 2011 ford fusion new. On last year the driver side window would not stay up. It was repaired for about $350. One year later the driver side door handle stopped working. I can't get out of the car unless i roll the window down or crawl to the passenger side. I had just arrived at work and turned the ignition off. I pulled on the handle and the door wouldn't open.

This morning when i got to work i went to get out of my car. I turned it off and opened the door but the door would only partly open and would not let me out. I have to now roll down my window to let myself out. I look completely ridiculous and this seems to be more than a common problem that should be extending the manufacturing warranty one. Let alone last week m y throttle went and i am replacing that…

First my passengers side door stopped locking and the handle on the inside would not close, then the drivers side door would not open from the inside. I am not rough on my door handles because they are made of plastic and i don't want to break them, but both doors within a few days of each other stopped working from the inside. This is dangerous and it is a known problem to ford there are active recalls out on other…

The driver side door swung open while driving around a bend at approximately 35mph. The car on the other side of the road had to slam on his brakes and swerve to avoid my door. After stopping i was unable to then open the door from the inside. The oncoming driver and car did not have any injury or damage. Testing the driver door i found it opened from the outside but after the door was open it would not shut. The…

On august 1st, 2015, i was on my way home at about 10 pm at night. I was going up a hill that curved to the left and suddenly lost control of my steering wheel. Instead of turning left the car proceeded to go straight where i then began to panic. I then slammed my brake to the floor and it somehow unexpectedly sped up. I crashed into a power line and smashed the front end into a tree that had totaled my vehicle. I…

Went to town and parked the car went in to the store and when i started to leave i noticed that the power steering didn't work. I drove the car home with no power steering. It's a good thing this didn't happen while going the speed limit. The dealer said that this is a common problem my question is why has it not been recalled if it's a common problem.

In the beginning of december while driving my friends home my fusion suddenly jolted and then i lost the ability to accelerate. The service wrench displayed and i had to come to a complete stop in a neighborhood. A few weeks later while driving home the same thing happened and i had to pull over to turn my car off and then on again, which seems to be the only way it will allow me to drive. Fast forward to january…

Driving at city speeds and the power steering completely fails. Turn the vehicle off and then on again and it fixes the problem. Drive some more and a few days later, it happens again. A few days later, it completely goes. Take the car to the local ford dealer and am charged $1832.35 for a new rack and pinion. Ladies and gentlemen, a rack and pinion won't fix itself if you turn the car on and off. I did some…

Went to start car and it would not start. Ford roadside towed it the next day. After trying various things for 3 weeks ford engineering called to tell me it was due to a lightning strike. Insurance believes it is a warranty claim as the car is still under warranty; ford will not honor this as a warranty claim. No one at ford has been able to give me a cost for repairs already attempted or for further repairs to make…

Every time the car reaches 45 mph, there is a ringing which sounds just like a telephone ring. It is loud enough that even passengers can hear it. The only time it happens is at 45 mph, and it happens every time that speed is met. *tt we have had it to the ford dealership twice and we are always told "nothing has registered on the computer, and unless it registers on the computer, we can not diagnose the problem".…

As i pulled into a diagonal parking space at my cvs drug store, turning at a low rate of speed or approximately 1 or 2 mph, stepping on the brake to complete the routine act of parking, there was a sudden surge of acceleration. This was not of my own volition! The estimated damage to my car is $5,000 while damaged to the other car was minor. Recently there was an article in the l.a. Times about a class action…
