CarComplaints.com Notes: Power steering problems started rearing their ugly head in the 2010 Fusion, so you'd think Ford had plenty of time to make sure those problems didn't creep into the 2012. But here we are.

The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) is a mess. It fails at an alarming rate. Don’t believe us? Take a look at NHTSA’s data on the subject.

And much like the power steering, we’re still seeing the same throttle body failures that started in 2010 continue in 2012.

Freaking number 6 hole piston failed. Dealer said they can't repair the piston and have to replace the entire engine. Companies have been rebuilding engines since they were produced. Why would OEM like Ford not do this? Uh everything today is a module and cheap and that is what you get for your money. Modernization Blows!
