In 2017, my passenger seat warmer quit working and in 2018, my drivers side seat warmer stopped working. Both act the same. When the switch is pressed to activate the heater, the light is on for ~3 seconds and then it goes off. The seat does not heat.

My driver seat heater was getting very hot, after a few times of this intense heat it now doesn't turn on at all. I have read a lot of others have had this same issue with the driver seat. Considering I only use it 4 months out of the year, and usually only 5 or 10 minutes at a time, there should be no reason that it have burnt out.

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. Today (1/12) 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. This was happening when I put my car into revoers or drive to pull out of my driveway.

I purchased my Fusion in September and in November started using the heating option on the drivers side seat. It would get so hot I had to shut it off as it felt like it was burning me, my skin was extremely sore after using the heater for a short time. En in December it quit working completely. I took it to a Ford dealership recently and was told it would cost around $500 to fix and my extended warranty does not cover it. I have found numerous complaints on the internet about this and am hoping forr a recall or assistance in paying to have this fixed.

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.

Driver seat, heater got super hot to the point of burning a few time, then stopped working altogether by 68k miles. Brakes, right side front completely wore thru outside pad only by 48k miles, right rear did same thing by 70k. In both instances only one pad was shot. Why only one pad wearing to backing plate, looks like pads not releasing. Electrical, all windows, including moon roof, open by themselves while nowhere near car and it's locked.

I turned on my driver side seat heater and it go extremely hot in one spot. I had to turn it off and tried it at a later date and same thing. In fact, it was as though it wouldn't turn off since it felt as hot as when it was on. It did eventually cool down. Wow! I now have a hole burnt in my leather seat!!! this is obviously a big problem on two counts . . . . One could get burnt plus the car could catch on fire.

The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that the air bag wires failed and caused the air bag warning light to remain illuminated. The dealer performed a diagnostic, which located a failure code that the air bag wires were loose. The dealer adjusted the air bag wires; however, the repair did not correct the failure. The dealer performed a second diagnostic, which located a failure code for which the air bag restraint module needed to be replaced. The restraint module was not replaced. The contact also stated that the heated seat feature failed due to defective seat covers that caused the heating system wires to loosen. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 60,000.

First at about 42000 miles in October 2012 the driver seat became so hot it created 1st degree burns on my husband. The seat heater went out soon after. Needs to be fixed. The seat could cause a fire at 55000 miles the driver door handle became unlatched within the door and stopped opening from the inside. What if I had a wreck and couldn't get out? needs to be recalled for this issue. I've heard it's common on the Fusions. The front door speakers went out soon after all of this. At 90000 miles the passenger seat heater went out. Same burning hot thing but this time no one was burned. At 95000 miles the safety system has now gone out. It flashes that there is a problem with the rear park aid and a fault with the cross traffic system. I've read that the rear driver side speakers cause this. The front driver side speakers went out 2 yrs ago. Maybe these are connected. It seems the whole car has problems with fuses and electrical wires either burning out way too quickly. My vehicle is a 2011 manufactured in October of 2010.
