Advancetrac light started turning on, then about the 3rd time the light flashed electric brakes went away and was left with extremely hard to press hydraulic brakes. Just to SCAN the car ford wants $200 because they have a proprietary system...

- La Mirada, CA, USA

During winter driving conditions, the antilock brake system engaged. Following the engagement of the antilock brake system, the brake pedal would press all the way to the floor and very little braking was available from the brake system. Distances to stop the car were extremely long and the car was inherently unsafe to drive on the road. There were no warning indications on the car. It was determined by a Ford dealer that the hydraulic control unit failed and needed to be replaced. Upon repair, the braking system returned to normal function. I have the failed HCU in my possession.

My 2011 Ford Fusion SE is experiencing a brake system failure similar to the one noted in NHTSA Recall 19V-904. The recall pursuant to NHTSA Recall 19V-904 only applies to model years up to 2010. I contend the brake system failure continues to be prevalent but Ford is refusing to acknowledge the failure as applicable to the recall simply due to the model year. No warning indicator appeared.

- Whiteland, IN, USA

Brakes serviced within last 3 years. They should not have failed. A few months ago noticed that the Brakes after initial tap will go to floor. Then they completely failed with no warning when my teen driver was on a highway. Per mechanic there is a problem with the ABS module. Mechanic states we have the same ABS module as the 2010 Fusion that was recalled. However, per Local Ford dealer as our VIN # is 2011 it doesn't matter that part has proven to be faulty

Braking on icy roads engaged the anti-lock braking. Immediately afterwards normal braking was affected with an increased travel in the brake pedal, down to the floor. This is the same behavior resulting in the recall of 2006-2010 Ford Fusions. My Ford Fusion is 2011 and not covered. I believe my ABS unit has the same sticking valve issue. I resolved the immediate problem by forcing the anti-lock brakes to engage 4-5 times on an icy road. The brakes are now currently back to normal operation. This is the exact same issue reported in the recall but excluded by Ford based on the model year of my 2011 Ford Fusion.

Started the car and went to back out of the drive way and all these lights came on the dashboard and started to beep. It stated to "Check Brake System" and "Service Advancetrac". Also had to press down on the break pedal super hard to make sure the car stopped. Took the car to the Ford dealership and they stated that the ABS Module needed to be replaced. There was no prior warning there was a issue. Glad this didn't happen while in traffic or on the highway. I see there have been similar issues with the 2011 Ford Fusion and not sure why there has not been a recall on this yet. Car has 103K miles.

One more than 10 occasions my vehicle has failed to properly stop. For now apparent reason my brakes will go all the way to the floor. I've had the vehicle inspected and taken to multiple repair shops, however the issue is never resolved. I've almost been involved in TWO serious accidents. There are recalls on this issue from 2006-2010 and I've seen many, many complaints with the same year (2011) and same vehicle. PLEASE HELP

While I'm driving my brake pad goes all the way to the floor, it's scary because you have break fluid so why the issue, and then they work normal. This needs to be recalled soon, can't afford to buy another car. I see lot's of issues with this so whay isn't this already up for recall, maddenining. If Ford works so hard to sell you a vehicle they should work HARDER TO PROTECT THE OWNER'S OF THE VEHICLE.

- Baltimore, MD, USA

This problem has occurred more than once in the past month, the last time being July 3, 2021. I have not driven it since then. The previous times it happened, I turned the car off, and restarted it. That does not correct the problem now. I Only have 72446 miles on this car. Brake went all the way to the floor and I could not stop. Displayed on my dash: SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC -BRAKE CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM -BRAKE - ABS. I was extremely lucky when this happened, but it could have resulted in a serious accident. It seemed to correct itself, but has happened again. The dash displays appear each time I start the car, so I an not able to drive it now. I will have to get it somewhere to be repaired.
