CarComplaints.com Notes: Ford significantly updated the Fusion for the 2010 model year. We wish they hadn't

Throttle body issues have led to a ton of reports about a sudden deceleration and loss of power while driving. Ford issued a “customer satisfaction program” in March 2014 that, unsurprisingly, has left very few customers satisfied.

2010 is also the year we started seeing complaints about the power steering failing. Throttle and steering failure? Yeah, that’s why this is a clunker.

I was driving in my neighborhood when the right passenger mirror exploded with a loud boom. The outside portions of the mirror were lying on the side of the road intact. The interior plastic was blown to several pieces. Had someone or something been on the right side of my car, they would certainly have been injured. This is not normal wear-and-tear on a car; this is a defect. It is apparently connected with the defrosting system. Ford assumes no responsibility.
