2010 Ford Fusion seats problems

Filed Sep 10, 2019 · Seats, Steering · 162,542 miles · VA

I was driving down the highway on the interstate at a speed limit of 60mph in motion on my way home and it started getting hard to turn my steering wheel which made it hard for me to make a left or right turn when I was exiting the exit. The service power steering popped up on my dashboard and advance trac. So then it ended up changing to say service power steering now which it made it very hard and difficult to even be able to drive my car period. I got a estimated of $1811.94 for my car to be repaired at wynne ford at 1020 w. Mercury blvd hampton va 23666 and for me to get a estimate of that price I can't afford to pay that it's like buying a used car at that price. I just find it hard to believe that it's a recall on a 2011-2012 ford fusion but not a 2010 when the same exact defect is going on with that same carjis a different year. Which basically I would be paying to get a electrical power steering rack and pinion in order for my car to be able to drive and function correctly.

I am having problems with several things. Air bag was recalled so I took it to the ford dealership and they replaced it but the light won't go off, after getting my car back from the dealership the radio/speaker and seat warmers went out, soon after the heat/AC went out, the rear driver side tail light goes out very often, plate lights don't work, visor lights don't work. They're are too many issues that started at the same time, so I think it must be electrical. Thanks

My drivers side heated seat began to get warmer than usual when I would use it. It would become so warm that I would have to turn it off because it was getting too hot and I was afraid that it would burn me. After a few weeks of this happening the seat heater stopped functioning properly all together. I would press the heated seat button and it would illuminate for a few seconds (maybe 2-3) and then shut off on its own, as if something were tripping a fault. The seat does not get warm at all before the switch turns off automatically. It is apparent based on research that this is a very common issue with the ford fusion. I have taken the car into the dealership and I was told the heating unit would cost almost $400 and to replace the leather seat is over $1000. Over the past few years in michigan, I have had over a 10% pay cut as a teacher. I can not afford to fix this common problem. Please ask ford to fix this problem with no cost.

The inside door handle has a cable attachment to it, when you pull the door handle it moves the lock and the door opens. Today, mine broke. The reason for contacting you, I called the ford location to check for repair, the parts man told me that this door handle problem was the no 1 problem for ford motor cars. Seems to me that they would address the problem, would you think that $150.00 cost for replacement might be the reason? Sounds like add on sales, does not sound right, but the numbers are millions.
