Ford Fusion Hybrid warning lights comes on

Filed Mar 1, 2024 · Acceleration, Airbags · OH

Car has intermittent electrical issue that causes ECUs to reboot often times disabling safety systems such as ABS, Airbags, Collision Avoidance, Adaptive Cruise Control, power steering and power brakes. Ford dealer believes that it's a short in a wiring harness. They claim this issue has been seen in several vehicles like mine. Ford was able to reproduce the problem and recommends replacement of a wiring harness ($4k). To date, I have not had an accident, but do not feel safe driving the vehicle if the airbags and other safety systems become inoperable. Yes, all of the dashboard lights come on when this issue occurs - technician states that the whole computer system gets taken down. That's very uncomfortable when you are traveling at highway speed and no longer have safety system. Steering and braking do get impacted but are not inoperable. I can provide videos of the dashboard when these events occur.

Driving down the road and suddenly all the lights came on and lost power steering there was no warning. Nothing. It stopped working. I then see something today in regards to this being an issue and when I contact ford about it was nothing we can do. Ford did not make this very public and I bet if you people expanded this to other newer models and made it public you might find more people that have had the same issue and thought it was just their car.

I was driving the vehicle and it started beeping. I looked at the dashboard and multiple lights in relation to the brakes were on or flashing such as the brake light, abs, service advancetrac, traction control etc. The main issue was I was driving and the vehicle had some sort of glitch and all the lights for the brake system came on the and vehicles brakes did not work. The brake was soft and if depressed it went down to the floor. Luckily no cars were ahead of me and I was able to pull the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. After researching this, this was an issue for these model vehicles, but I thought this was addressed on my particular vehicle. This is a common issue with these cars and has happened to many of the vehicles as reported on various consumer report and the federal safety agency. This issue is documented in the TSB-09-22-11 as well as 19S54 Recall. I shut the car off and turned it back on and the lights went away and it worked. Car was towed the dealer and they were unsure and I also reached out to Ford Motor Co but they were unwilling to help.

The vehicle loses all brakes while driving. With multiple warning lights coming on to include brake light, traction control. The problems completely match ford's current recall number 19s54 which this vehicle was not included in. This issue is intermittent.

My Ford Fusion hybrid is no longer safe to drive. I keep it parked in front of my work. I’ve had 2 Mechanics I know personally look at it and they both say the break line is cracked and is spraying out break fluid. I was driving in a stormy day and all of the sudden the break light, traction control light, slippery roads light, abs light, and advance service tech appeared. All at once I knew to drive slow and safe since I had no traction control. I restarted my car and all the lights disappeared. Than as I’m driving the next day, Low break fluid was on the screen but for only a second. And it did that every time I would hit the break. So I bought break fluid and filled it up. I pressed on the breaks many times and turned the wheel to the left so I can look in the wheel well I noticed the leak and immediately knew I needed to get it serviced. I unfortunately don’t have the money and it is gonna remain in front of my work till I can figure out what to do. I looked online to find solutions and found some recalls but when I looked up my vin it didn’t show up for my car. I can attach the recalls I found that look like they are for this issue. Please put add this to the recall list.

Tamara recall. I own a 2010 ford fusion hybrid. I was pulling out of the parking lot after work when my brakes failed entirely. I was luckily only going about 5mph and coasted into an empty spot. I had my car towed and the driver took a look at it assuming it was just the brake fluid leaking from somewhere.this was not the case. The fluid was full. After some time he ended up disconnecting the battery and when we turned the car on all warning lights were off and the brakes worked fine. The next morning I turned it on to drive to a ford dealership and the brakes were not working again. I did some research and apparently this is a known problem with this model of car built before october 2009. Mine was built in september of 2009. At the dealership they charged us a fee to diagnose it and reprogram the computer responsible. They said if it happened again I would need to have the entire module replaced which would cost upwards of $2000 plus 8 hours of labor. Considering this model has a known issue of complete brake failure I believe it to be highly dangerous and the responsibility of the manufacturer to recall and replace this computer module.

My breaks in my 2010 ford fusion hybrid stopped working a couple seconds after starting the car (along with a beeping alert and display on dashboard to check breaks). Fortunately I was in a parking lot and going at a slow speed. I was able to pull to the side and stop. I turned the vehicle off. When turning the vehicle back on the alerts were gone and breaks worked. I had the breaks checked and was told they were fine. About a month went past, I was coming to a stop at a light on a city street and my breaks suddenly went out (along with an alert display of check breaks). Luckily no cars were in front of me so I was able to make a right turn and pull to the side until my car came to a complete stop. I turned the car off and on and breaks again worked fine and all warning lights off. With plans to take the vehicle to the ford dealer after work I parked. After about 8 hours with the vehicle being off I returned to my car. I turned on the vehicle and the break alert was back and I had no functional breaks. This time when I continued to turn the car on and off the alert did not go away and the breaks did not return.
