2010 Ford Fusion body complaints
Page 4 of 4: complaints 71 to 87 of 87, newest first, as owners wrote them.
A crack appeared on the driver side door interior handle. The door would not lock. Door can be opened at high speed and can also be opened when locked with the key fob. I am concerned the latch handle will break and I will not be able to open the door from the inside. The car cannot be secured against potential theft. This is a serious manufacturing issue and could be easily corrected through a recall.
Front driver side interior door handle fractured while opening car door in usual manner. Door will no longer open using handle, nor will door lock using either handle or keyring remote.
Put 0 down for speed because not sure what the speed was due to the car accelerated while parking car. Car jumped a curb and car crashed into a building . Took car to dealership where my car was purchased and they said they found no problems. Imagine that!

2010 ford fusion sel. Customer writes in regards to continued transmission problems.*smd the consumer stated the transmission would slip harshly and hesitate on acceleration. The recall repair did not correct the transmission problems. It was determined that the valve body and solenoid body were defective. Also, one of the tires was leaking air, there was an issue with the traction and brakes. There were noises coming from the front of the vehicle. The steering wheel would not lock into place, the cd player did not work at times, the driver side visor did not stay in place, the gas over flow tube was inoperative, the vehicle would pull hard when the brake was applied. The rear driver's side door had to be slammed extremely hard, in order to close it. The driver's side seat belt was backwards. The passenger side windshield wiper dragged on the windshield and the vehicle would sometimes surge on its own. Each time the consumer went to the dealer about certain problems, she was told no problems were found.
The interior door handle on the drivers side door (and other doors as I have read), breaks at the point of contact with the spring release. Once the handle has broken the door cannot be opened from the inside. Occupants must roll down a window and open the door from the outside, effectively trapping the occupant inside the vehicle should the windows not roll down.

I opened the storage console that sits on the dash and the lid broke off the hinges. Parts are made of that hard plastic the heat and sun bakes till brittle.
Driver side interior door handle plastic separated and handle cracked. Unable to lock door without having to hold handle in. Was able to open door from the interior with great caution. Handle continued to crack all the way through and had to be replaced.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 ford fusion. While driving approximately 55 MPH, the vehicle decelerated abnormally. The contact stopped the vehicle and shifted into park as the vehicle began to shake vigorously and stalled. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics and stalled a second time on while in route. The technician was unable to diagnose the failure because the computer was not providing a failure code. The failure recurred three times. The third time, the vehicle was towed to the dealer and the technician advised that the computer was not reading a failure code but the electronic throttle body would likely have to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 43,000. Updated 03/02/12*lj the consumer stated the rear window, weather stripping on the doors, and door handles had to be replaced. The consumer stated there have been numerous problems with the transmission. Updated 03/08/12

Safety issue. Design/engineering defect. 2010 fusion hybrid. Foot space between the knee airbag housing and brake pedal is severely and dangerously restricted by the physical presence, bulk, and location of the knee airbag. This delays response for instant brake deployment for emergency deceleration. Vertical clearance is ~4" and is less if approached at an angle, swiveling on heel from accelerator to brake. Lifting foot with leg from hip bumps foot against airbag housing, stopping smooth transition to pedal with either foot. Foot then must slide horizontally into narrow space to engage brakes. Foot space is dangerously restricted even with driving mocs. I have excellent reflexes and 60-year safe driving record with no moving violations. But in congested freeway conditions during a 3600-mile road trip I felt required to drive with left foot poised above the brake pedal to limit emergency response time. With only short trips for 1500 miles, I at first thought I might get used to this problem. This limitation and the extraordinary driving practices required for safety only became painfully apparent during the road trip. This safety issue was reported to ford motor company today. Desire physical removal of knee airbag with all mounting hardware and reprogramming of software to ignore its absence. Note: the required "incident date" on this form is the approximate date of manufacture, listed on the rocker panel as 10/09. This is an engineering design defect which appears to have been an afterthought. No accident has resulted only because I have devoted assiduous attention to mitigating the problem by shoe choice and extremely careful driving practice.
Ford fusion 2010 s - when the brake was depressed the car accelerated until I depressed a second time much harder. The consumer first began to notice the vehicle would intermittently not start in august. He took the vehicle to the dealer, but they were unable to duplicate the problem. The consumer insisted there was a problem and eventually, they found a technical service bulletin that addressed the issue. The problem was attributed to radio frequency intermittently corrupting the crankshaft position sensor and a new ground strip was installed. The problem seemed to be rectified. The weather stripping surrounding the rear window was loose, there was loose metal around the passenger rear wheel.
Our 2010 ford fusion is starting to split to split at the seams literally. On the passenger front door on the armrest where the window switch is, the panel is starting to separate & come apart. The top of the panel bulges upwards as if something in the door is pushing it up. My concern is especially here in nj with the recent snow & rain, moisture & dust could come in through the crack & either short out or disable the electrical wiring in the door (speakers, window, etc). The failure stared at 2000 miles & the split gets bigger each day & current mileage is 5300 miles. I'm sorry but I've bought ford for the last 15 years & this is probably the worst quality I've seen in ford cars.
