The front passenger side brake hose failed without warning. When I stepped on the brake the pedal went down to the floor. The fluid was leaking out, but was able to make it home. I informed the dealer, but they indicated there was no recall in place. I had the hose replaced. About 6 months later the Front Driver side brake hose failed in the same way. Again the brake pedal went down to the floor and was able to make it home. Again looked for any recall notice and found none. I had the hose replaced.

Brake hose ruptured. It was confirmed and already replaced by an independent service center so it is not available for inspection. My safety and others’ safety was put at risk with the inability to stop the vehicle in motion as expected. There were no warning messages/lamps/symptoms prior to failure or after failure.
It literally does what the recall says and mine isn’t covered? It jumps between second gear. The brakes do not automatically start working for like 5 seconds after starting it, you feel like you will go out into the road because it will not stop. Hill assist light is Constantly coming on which triggers abs brakes light and service light to come on and looks like a damn Christmas tree because the dash has so many lights on at night. You guys say it isn’t under these recalls?
This recall has already been reported; however, IT IS NOT safe to drive my vehicle and I would not recommend anyone else driving theirs. My car stalled on my as I was in traffic, this could have ended up in a very bad situation. I need someone to contact me ASAP [XXX].

On 26 May 2022 while approaching interstate exit in a 2014 Ford Fusion SE (1.5 L ecoboost engine) brakes were applied to slow vehicle but pedal went to floor and the vehicle barely stopped in time at the traffic light where the exit merged onto a main thoroughfare. Slowly drove the approximately 2 miles to house. Once there, tested the brakes and the pedal went to the floor again. Upon pumping the pedal a sharp sound emanated from the passenger side front wheel well. Brake fluid puddled on the ground and the brake fluid reservoir was empty. The brake line ruptured close to the wheel. Vehicle mileage is 71,895 miles.

Abs came out while I was driven and went back off almost every 20 minutes.
Brake lights stay on all the time. Brakes function, but continuous illumination drains the battery.
Brake lights stay on and do not turn off car will not accelerate past 50 MPH received email about recall 22V011
The brake lights remain constantly on. The cruise control cannot be activated. I can shift from "P" into "N" and "D" without stepping on the brake pedal. I suspected that the brake switch was bad, so I loosened the connected to turn off the brake lights after parking at my home. But if I try to drive the vehicle while the connector was loose, I cannot shift out from "P", even when I am stepping on the brake pedal. I have to reattach the connector every day to drive.
I was making your left turn into a parking spot and suddenly I've got lights on my dash service advanced track check rear Park aid ABS light on traction control lights on airbag light on and power steering got tight
I do not personally own vehicle, this vehicle is owned by my Government agency employer and vehicle is assigned to me along with responsibility for maintenance and repairs. 12/23/2019 brake pedal went all the way to floor while exiting a parking space. Shortly thereafter, brake system warning light illuminated, along with low brake fluid message and a warning chime. Was able to safely re-park vehicle with almost no system pressure remaining. Had vehicle towed to repair facility, culprit was rotted and ruptured L/F hose to caliper. 12/22/2021, almost exactly 2 years to the day the exact same events unfolded. Again had vehicle towed due to almost no remaining system pressure, and again problem is a rotted and ruptured L/F hose to caliper. This is a serious and now apparently recurring safety issue. Both times I was fortunate that failure occurred while exiting a parking space in areas with minimal traffic, and was able to safely re-park vehicle. Next time I may not be so fortunate.
Right and left front rubber/flexible brake line failure. Lines split unexpectedly with no indication of rupture caused by road hazard and brakes failed.

Under moderate braking, brake pedal went to the floor - red brake light came on and I had little to no braking. Vehicle was on 25mph neighborhood street - had to brake suddenly for a dog. Was only 1/4 mile from home and was able to get into garage. Found a puddle of brake fluid from left front. Removed wheel and found left front brake line ruptured near fitting crimp opposite end from caliper..
My car, a 2014 ford fusion se, was parked in my driveway on 1/2/2021, everything was fine on 1/3/2021 I started the car and my power assist did not work and an error of "steering assist fault service required", "service advancetrac", "hill assist off" and my traction light came on stating it is off. This car has 74036 miles and has never had a problem. I called the ford dealership and was told there are no recalls for this. The car was stationary with no reason for these problems.
Hydraulic brake line split under normal conditions. Causing all fluid to be lost
I was involved in a major collision on thursday 8/27 at approximately 3:30pm. While approaching the intersection to make a right turn, I removed my foot from the gas and attempted to brake, but rather than slow down, my car accelerated. When I pressed the brake all the way down it still continued to accelerate until I hit another vehicle which finally stopped my car. I am lucky no one including myself died- this is absolutely unacceptable. Ford continues to have these issues and their negligence is going to harm more people!
While driving on a 2 lane flat road the car started losing power, when I press the gas harder the car really speeded up and after 2 blocks it started losing power again, within that time the "hill start assist" warning light came on and went off losing power on and off for 5 miles until I reached home. After getting home I notice the brake light didn't go off after 2 hours, so I had to remove battery cable. I had to have it towed to repair shop and they repaired brake switch because I didn't know if it would stop completely.
Brake pedal sinking to the floor this caused my wife to back into another car and damage both cars. Now the parking brake malfunction light is flashing and acting up. Had towed to shop. I've seen recalls coming out on this issue hoping ford is going to cover this expensive issue. Has caused one accident already. Please contact me about this.*dt
Brake pedal all of a sudden started sinking to the floor while driving down the road. Brake pads, calipers are good no leaks and replaced master cylinder. Pedal still sinks to the floor when braking. Dangers. Called dealer about recalls. They said is none.
I was leaving my home and the brakes failed. When pushing the brakes the tension gave way and the pedal just sank to the floor and the brakes stopped working. There was a similar recall for 2010 ford fusions. Now the brakes do not engage at all they can be pushed with 0 effort to the floor and do not do anything.
On november 15, 2019, I had a recall service conducted on my car to comply with ford recall 19s16. However, the recall is still open for my vehicle according to the federal safety agency website. As a us service member stationed overseas, I will need to show proof that I have complied with this recall before I can ship the vehicle back to the USA.
Vehicle was stationary foot on brakes in reverse. My sister touched the back of the car with her hand I heard a loud beeeeeeep then never heard any sound again. Not even when the keys are left in the ignition or when I'm unbuckled. Not a single sound. Then 3 months later the brakes were stalling so I got new rotors and pads and they still stall/ shake. As if that wasn't enough now it just doesn't start: I've googled all these problems and I'm not the only one. Ford should not be allowed to keep selling the same broken cars.
Tl* the contact owned a 2014 ford fusion. While the contact's wife was driving approximately 45 MPH and attempting to come to a stop, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard when it was depressed. The vehicle proceeded forward, crashed through a fence, drove through a nearby yard, and struck another fence. The air bags did not deploy. The vehicle was towed and deemed totaled. A police report was filed. The driver sustained injuries to the arms, legs, head, and back. Medical attention was required. While driving at similar speeds and attempting to stop the vehicle, the contact noticed that it would coast into a stop instead of stopping as expected. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The approximate failure mileage was 109,000.
The vehicle was sitting about 24 hours and I go to get in it to go to work and it doesn't immediately start like it normally does, once it started the service brake light was now on along with the maintenance wrench and my brakes were practically non existent since I don't live far I drove it to the dealer with a escort vehicle just in case and the dealer replaced the battery retested and is now being sent to the manufacturer dealer to have something with the hybrid system serviced will update with more detail when received.
September 2018 at 75382 miles front left break hose ruptured causing complete break failure in june 2019 at 84143 miles right side break hose failure, causing complete break failure. Each time was the same I pulled out of a parking spot pulled up to the exit and while holding foot on break peddle went to floor and had no breaks. Car had to be towed to dealership for repairs. Both instances car lost all break fluid . I asked for the hose the second time this happened hose is ruptured.
While driving car down highway at approx 70 MPH, suddenly the brakes stop functioning normaly making it almost impossible to stop vehicle without using emergency brake. Also experience extreme loss of power making it difficult to reach a speed of 35 MPH with pedal pushed to floor. Ford dealership diagnosed as vacuum pump. Ford vacuum pump purchased and replaced. Within 3 weeks exact same issue again on interstate. Brakes nearly useless to bring car to a stop, loss of power. Had to have vehicle towed to get it home. Called to question warranty on ford vacuum pump - informed vacuum pump is on "national backorder" and can't even be given an approximate date as to when a new part will be available. Maybe it's time for a recall???
