My car was having multiple issues. First the epas system went out as I was driving. There was a recall for previous versions but when I looked up the 2010 Ford Fusion 3. 0lv6 awd it was not included even though it was one of the pioneer vehicles of Fords to have the system. Once I got the power steering repaired I started hearing a grinding. As I drove the car to my house to get a safe look all of a sudden there was a jerking and crunching sound as I drove on a straight road with slight grading. Luckily I was only going 35mph and was able to control the vehicle. I took it to the mechanic and found out that it was the power transfer unit and the rear drive shaft. After talking to the mechanic he said that the ptu is one of the most commonly replaced parts in the awd Ford vehicles. It is obvious after more research that Ford is well aware that they are providing a faulty product and are placing them in all of their awd systems. My understanding is that the ptu unit in the Ford Fusion 2010 is the same as in all other Ford awd vehicles. Since I spent so much money to get the power steering fixed I had to put my car in a garage for the winter so I could save up to fix the now funked ptu. My car hasn't even cracked 89k miles.

I have had to replace the transmission, the head gasket, drive shaft and carrier barrings. When I had the vehicle fixed I was told I need a new gas tank as well. My passenger side airbag compartment is rising up from the dash and I am concerned it will deploy even without an accident to initiate the deploy. Called Ford motor company and they were not willing to help in any way. I purchased the car in 2013 and have had problems from the start with no help from Ford. Thank you.

Well I previously had a problem with the transmission shifting gears and jerking. Well come to find out it was from a low fluid level caused by a leaking drive shaft. One of more than 2000 known to have this problem. Ford needs to take care of this or I am going back to imports again.

2008 Fusion se-v6 awd model (fwd + it has a drive shaft that goes to the rear wheels for awd). Several miles before I brought it in for service for the below problem the car began making a howling/whirring noise at the rear of the engine only when the car was in motion which got louder as the speed increased. Imy Ford dealer told me the noise was because of a bad driveshaft and it should be replaced ASAP as driving it the way it is a safety issue. My car had just come out the manufacturer's 60,000 mile warranty and I was not pleased to learn that I would have to pay $1103. 35 for the repair. The dealer tried to get Ford to ok the repair under my just expired warranty. If the shaft suddenly failed, it could cause control problems so it is a safety issue particularly at highway speeds. After much research I found that Ford was well aware of the problem and even issued an internal technical service bulletin # TSB 08-14-1 stating that the oem driveshafts on the 2008 Ford Fusion awd models were not "keyed" correctly when manufactured and over a period of time will eventually fail and dislodge from the vehicle. A revised shaft was manufactured and should be used to replace defective shafts. Ford knew of the potentially part failure but rather than notify the owners or have a safety recall, they chose to keep it "in-house" and only fix it when the owners reported it. Since the most failures seemed to occur near the 60,000 mile point (mine was just over that), Ford chose to adopt a "wait and see" attitude on this problem/safety issue. Since the shaft repair one year ago, I have written to the district Ford representative and the chairman of the board of Ford, alan mulally about how this was handled but to no avail. I am shocked and dismayed that Ford would treat its customers this way (I own 3 Fords) and the way they handled this potentially dangerous safety issue.

The rear carrier bearing is already wearing out. From searching around on the internet, this is a known problem. My car only has 65000 miles on it, there should be no reason for this to happen. You can't find a replacement bearing, so it makes me thing Ford knows about the issue but is not willing to do anything about it; leaving people to hope the drive shaft doesn't fall out going down the road.

Whirring noise developed from awd drive shaft carrier bearing.

Ford 6f35 transmission has "dead spots", jerkiness and hard shifting since I owned the car. At 56,500 miles, transmission fluid was found to be leaking from the drive shaft axle and that had to be replaced under warranty. The transmission in this car is defective and should be replaced.

Drive shaft carrier bearings went out. Common problem with this type of vehicle. Have to replace drive shaft entirely! cost of about 900 dollars.

The contact owns a 2006 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that they were unable to remove the key out of the ignition. The ring around drive shift was broken and gave the appearance that the vehicle was in park when it wasn't which also made it impossible to remove the key from the ignition. When the broken ring was removed, the contact was able to remove the key from the ignition; however, the transmission continued to malfunction. The vehicle had not been inspected at the time of the complaint. The VIN was not available. The failure and current mileages were 50000.
