2007 Ford Fusion electrical complaints

The A/C suddenly started blowing hot air. The A/C system had over 200 psi which burned up the A/C compressor. Compressor was changed and now it is reading that it is 40 degrees. Failure in the A/C evaporator temperature switch.
2007 ford fusion--my keys are getting stuck in the ignition which to me cause a risk of someone stealing your car. The key will not release and if the warranty or extended warranty has expired, ford will not pay to have the car repaired. This problem has been in existence with the focus & fusion since 2003 and ford has not issued a recall. I had to leave my car unlocked after lunch because I could not get the keys out of the ignition. I work at a place where the parking lot is large and I was on edge all afternoon praying that no one would steal my car. I called ford customer relations and they were no help at all. It was like an "oh well". My issue is, if ford knows of this issue with the ignition, why haven't ford recalled these cars and fix the problem. I googled this problem and you will be amazed as to the complaints of keys getting stuck in the ignition. The ford dealerships states that the shifter knob assembly is why mine was stuck and I also saw the same problem when I googled this issue. Please, please help me to help other consumers as myself in getting ford to address this issue. Thanks
The dash panel on my 2007 fusion suddenly lit up - oil light, air bag light, etc. - and after stopping the car it would not start again. The battery cables (especially the positive one) were highly corroded. After removing the corrosion and replacing the battery it started. Five weeks later it failed to start again. Both times the radio and lights worked but the car would not start. I tried jumping it off, but it did not even try to turn over. Had it towed to the dealership and they said the battery cables and 20 feet of cable wire were completely corroded and would have to be replaced. The car has fewer than 48,000 miles on it. I do not live in a high salt area either. Apparently this is not under warranty either. I believe that substandard equipment was used and that there should be a notice sent out to other fusion owners to take any precautionary steps to avoid this ' if there are any. Ultimately, I think ford should cover this repair. It is clearly due to shoddy cables and wiring.
I parked my 2007 ford fusion at my house and I was unable to remove my key from the ignition. My steering wheel would not lock. I made sure that my car was in park, and still my key would not come put of the ignition. My boyfriend disconnected the battery, and tried to turn the key backwards and this was the only way the key could come out. We replaced the ignition switch, and the ignition switch sensor and it still not working. I would like for this to be reported and I would like to know how to fix the problem.
On approximately may 12, 2010 as I parked my 2007 ford fusion in parking lot of convenient store I was unable to remove my key from the ignition. I noticed my steering wheel would not lock. I returned home and my husband made sure the vehicle was in park and still the key would not turn all the way back so that the wheel could lock and key could be removed. He disconnected my battery post and then tried to turn the key backwards and this is the only way the key would turn back enough to lock the wheel and be removed. I called a local ford dealer and was told they did not have any reports of the fusion but did have reports about another model. I would like to have this reported because this can be costly. I am now convinced.

The current mileage was approximately 63,010.
Unable to remove key from ignition. Shift lever button will not fully extend to allow the selector to go into proper position so that the key can be moved. I have pushed and let it snap back out and have been able to get it out once or twice but now stays in most of the time. This has just started on this 2007 fusion with in last 7 days.
I was unable to remove the key from the ignition. A bit of research revealed that this could be due to a faulty part in the gear shifter. After messing around with the shifter for several minutes, it finally locked fully into park and I was able to remove the key.
Ford fusion 2007 key won't come out of ignition. I just had it in to ford two weeks ago for the same thing and paid $438.
Ford fusion. 2007 key won't come out of ignition. Was told it will cost $438 to fix and it is a result of a bent pen. This is not something I have done. Ford forum web page has many people with the same problem.

No A/C , electrical not supplied to compressor , no help from ford , lack oc concern.
The 2007 ford fusion developed erratic electrical power and starting failure. Dealership found that the battery cables had essentially disintegrated from battery posts along considerable length of the cables, also destroying the battery with excessive corrosion and splitting the plastic cable sheaths. Vehicle was only 2 years old but had 42,000 mi. A quick internet search immediately found 3 other 2006-2007 fusions with same occurrence, all just slightly over the 36,000mi warranty and not covered. Ford has not issued a tsb, has not volunteered to cover any of the $428 cost. This is a clear quality control product failure, unacceptable on any 2-yr-old vehicle, and could have resulted in a fire or stranding situation.
2007 ford fusion bought new does not function well it takes a while to crank. Windows began to mold, car shakes, vibrates , swerves of road when brakes applied, brakes do not function well car makes noises. Tires do not perform well tires have trouble slowing down.
