I've had recurring issues of brake failure. Thankfully, none of the issues have resulted in fatality, injury or major damage. My most recent issue happened as I was leaving my job. I depressed the brake to put the car in drive and the brake went down almost to the floor. I hesitantly drove the car to an auto shop near my home and was able to have the brakes serviced. I have included that invoice (10. 02. 24) along with some invoices from previous issues (09. 07. 17) (04. 12. 18). There have been recalls made concerning the break line in Ford Fusions that were released around the same time as mine (recall #23s12). I question if, although my VIN number does not show in the recall search, my car should have been included within this recall. I'm concerned and I would like to know if I have any options toward reimbursement for these repairs and/or a complimentary inspection to make sure there is indeed no safety issue that is connected recall 23s12 or any other Ford brake line recall. Please review this information and follow up at your earliest convenience. Thanks.

The power brake booster is driven by a custom Ford bolt driven by the camshaft. This bolt failed with the result that it was extremely hard to stop the vehicle with both feet on the brake pedal.

Obviously anyone around one of these vehicles are at risk when this part fails which is very clearly a common occurrence. This happens with no warning at all.

My Ford Fusion hybrid is no longer safe to drive. I keep it parked in front of my work. I’ve had 2 mechanics I know personally look at it and they both say the break line is cracked and is spraying out break fluid. I was driving in a stormy day and all of the sudden the break light, traction control light, slippery roads light, abs light, and advance service tech appeared. All at once I knew to drive slow and safe since I had no traction control. I restarted my car and all the lights disappeared. Than as I’m driving the next day, low break fluid was on the screen but for only a second. And it did that every time I would hit the break. So I bought break fluid and filled it up. I pressed on the breaks many times and turned the wheel to the left so I can look in the wheel well I noticed the leak and immediately knew I needed to get it serviced. I unfortunately don’t have the money and it is gonna remain in front of my work till I can figure out what to do. I looked online to find solutions and found some recalls but when I looked up my VIN it didn’t show up for my car. I can attach the recalls I found that look like they are for this issue. Please put add this to the recall list.
