Warnings problems of the 2014 Ford Fusion

Since around 2020 / 2021 the vehicle rear-view camera has been malfunctioning. The screen can go blank or show an error message intermittently while in use, often moments after the vehicle starts to move, making continued immediate movement dangerous for the driver or pedistrians. The video feed sometimes works, sometimes shows an error message to contact the dealer. Sometimes the feed flashes back and forth intermittently working and showing a black sreen, every few seconds. Sometimes the video feed is flipped horizontally, showing the usually left side of the video on the right and vice-a-versa. This particular failure caused vertigo and was extremely hard to ignore, making it difficult to continue parking the car. I contacted the dealership and was told an approximate $1300 was required to fix the intermittent camera functioning, when it had worked for 8 years and was still intermittently working - it would seem a software problem introduced by an firmware update, if I was to assess the situation. No police report was filed, confirming. I called my local dealership more recently and asked about fixing it under relation to one of the many Ford truck related backup camera recalls and somehow my camera / car are not part of the recall, so I was instructed to contact the NHTSA to have my complaint added. I suspect because it is a lower volume car, the exact model is liikey not to show many vehciles with this problem. The corporate Ford customer service rep was very nice, but unable to grant permission for my car to be fixed by a dealer at reduced cost. Please add this to the Ford recalls of late or open a new relating recall. Thank you for your time.

I was driving on expressway with my kids. When the steering wheel lock up mid driving and I couldnt control the wheel very dangerous. Especially happening on the expressway with my children aboard. Worst could have happen but thank god I was able to Dodge an car an slow down to I stop an turn on hazzer lights and break. I couldnt turn the wheel at all it was very scary experience. It was displaying messages pwer steering failure and one other message. I tried turning car off and turning it back on but that didnt work. I had to get the car towed to Ford dealership in union city, GA. Where they found out it was the pwersteering system that failed costing $2600 in repairs that I didnt have and I needed my car for work. So I had to come up with the money to fix an repair that shouldnt have happen. My kids and I could have been killed. This happen June 2020 I have called several times sudmitted documents of repairs and reciepts. Still no world on adding it to the recall list to save others knowning this has been an major issue in these cars as well as I was told that you all would reimburse me for repairs. Still no word yet and its been a year. Someone please help.
