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

This vehicle was totaled in April 2015 in Virginia and is no longer in mine. I have reached out to Ford motors with this information and they say I'm the registered owner. There is nothing they can do. Now the Florida highway safety & motor vehicles is contacting me about not completing the recall. There is no way that can be done for a vehicle that doesn't exist.
2012 Ford Fusion VIN [xxx] (the vehicle VIN section of this complaint would not allow any entry so I have entered it here). This vehicle's VIN is on NHTSA and Ford recall lists for defective passenger frontal airbag: Ford recall number 9S01, NHTSA recall number 19V001. I have asked my Ford dealer to replace this defective airbag several times but they keep telling me they do not find it on their recall list. I am worried abut my safety and the safety of my passengers if this defective airbag is not replaced. My Ford dealer is not helping.

Takata recall: Just purchased 2 months ago a 2012 Ford Fusion. I received a recall notice in the mail for the airbags being recalled. No problems leading up to my airbag light going on and staying on until the day driving it came on and wont go off, even after Ford put the new airbag in. I would like this fixed.

Takata recall - in Feb 2019, Ford headquarters sent me a letter telling me to schedule my recall repair. On Mar. 11 I tried to do so and was put on a "waiting list" for parts. This week I received another letter from Ford. It said, "parts are now available to repair your vehicle." But the dealer says it doesn't have any, that there are 125 people ahead of me on the list and that "first available" is the end of August. At that rate I doubt they'll have parts for me this year. Ford is giving out false info in saying"parts are now available to repair your vehicle." Are they giving your Agency accurate info?
