Ford Focus, Fusion Class Action Lawsuit Filed Over Power Steering Issues July 9, 2014 Irvin Jackson Add Your Comments A class action lawsuit has been filed against Ford Motor Company, alleging that the power steering system in some Ford Fusion and Ford Focus vehicles is defective and could increase the risk of drivers getting into auto accidents. The complaint (PDF) was filed late last month in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by several plaintiffs, including William Philips, Phillip Clay Cecil, Robert Halsey, Temple Halsey, Performance Fire Protection, LLC and Jason Wilkinson. The lawsuit seeks class action status to represent anyone who purchased a 2010 through 2014 Ford Fusion or the 2012 through 2014 model year Ford Focus. According to allegations raised in the lawsuit, all of the Ford cars targeted by the class action claim use the Electronic Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) system, instead of traditional hydraulic-assisted power steering pumps. The EPAS system uses a steering control motor, electronic control unit, torque sensor and steering wheel position sensor to help the driver navigate.

See if you qualify for a hair dye cancer lawsuit settlement. Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION “The EPAS system, however, suffers from systemic defects,” the lawsuit claims. “The multitude of defective elements in the EPAS system renders the system prone to sudden and premature failure during ordinary and foreseeable driving situations.” Plaintiffs claim that the system seeps conforming coating onto the ribbon cable, causing loss of connections, the ribbon cable pins are misaligned, causing loss of connections and breakage of critical wiring, the contact plate can corrode, and there are defects in the system’s sensors and gear assembly. The lawsuit indicates that the Ford steering problems result in significantly increased effort needed to control the vehicle, and can cause drivers to get into an accident. Ford is allegedly aware of hundreds of complaints, according to the lawsuit, but has failed to act appropriately to ensure consumer safety. The complaint accuses the company of intentionally concealing the problem. None of the plaintiffs claim to have been in an accident caused by the steering system. The lawsuit points out that not only has Ford received complaints, but so has the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The lawsuit claims that the agency has received about 450 complaints of sudden failure of power steering loss regarding the affected vehicles. A number of those resulted in crashes and injuries. The claim accuses Ford of violating consumer protection laws, fraudulent concealment, unfair competition, false advertising, breach of warranty, negligent misrepresentation, negligence, unjust enrichment and fraud.

I am retired on fix income and can’t afford to fix it. A car with that many miles and never drove over speed limit and serviced on a regular bases I fill like the Ford Company should replace it . Daniel January 23, 2024 I also have 2010 fusion se. Same thing Rosanne April 3, 2023 I have been driving my 2010 Ford Fusion and sometimes when I’m driving the wheel will make it hard to turn on a street or to park. Have also stopped to gas up got back into car went ti turn it on and there is in power steering. I just have to keep turning it off and on to get it to work again. Patricia Buckley January 6, 2023 I have 2010 ford escape had torgue sensor put in now car steering not working at all. This was put in because ford had recall. They are not helping at all they want me to pay to replace steering column. The steering column should be replaced under recall. If replacing torque sensor renders car steering no good roy November 18, 2022 i am buying a 2015 ford fusion se i was driving all was fine was turning onto a street and all of the sudden my steering wheel went crazy it was almost like it was fighting me to turn in which was a bit scary because there was a semi heading straight at me after that i pulled off the road put it in park then the warning lights came on about the steering and track control i usally dont freak but that freaked me out because it happened out of no where,is ford going to do anything about it they need to what would happen if i was on the freeway and it goes crazy like that again Robyn November 15, 2022 I have a 2010 Fusion that has lost power steering and advance trac. We cannot afford the $900+ for the parts alone and who knows what for the labor. We’re told some years prior and some years after are covered by recall. Ours is not? I also have a copy of a work order from my local dealer claiming that they had replaced my passenger airbag. They have not touched it. Even though I tried repeatedly over a period of a few years. I’m not sure what to do next. I’m upset that I paid $27,000 for my car and I’m not being treated like a valued customer at all and not getting any answers from Ford. Thank you for hearing me out. I have many more issues but these are the 2 biggest. Thank you again. Mac October 20, 2022 So I have a 2013 Fusion with the recall listing 15S14 that has been done. No straight answer if the recalled bolts in this design are to be replaced with a new steering gear assembly (the rack and pinion basically) as I have the old defective design in a new rack they put in 7 years ago. Anyone have an answer or can help in any way? Toni October 12, 2022 I own a 2010 Ford Fusion. Power steering module had been going out for quite some time but would reset when restarting the car. It has finally completely gone out fortunately in my drive way but I could imagine what would have happened if I had been on the road. There were recalls on the years around my car but not including my car. Why aren’t the 2010s included in the recall? Just doesn’t seem right. Samantha October 11, 2022 My 2011 ford fusion sel suddenly lost power steering what do i do? STEPHEN October 7, 2022 Driving on the highway at around 70mph when the steering becomes extremely difficult. I pull off the highway, struggling to maneuver the entire time. When I finally stop in a parking lot, a light comes on and says power steering failure stop safely. It was way too late and I could have been seriously injured. Now Ford says this isn’t covered under any warranty. 2018 Fusion Larry August 30, 2022 Power steering fail suddenly showed on screen and began steering like a tank. Found parking lot and muscled in…restrated and did several circuits around lot with power steering restored. Drove trepidly to dealer where it sits awaiting $2200 fix of EPAS problem I, 73 yrs old on social security sole income can Ill afford. It makes me ill…and mad as hell after researching this problem known about BY FORD!!! Carrie August 30, 2022 Power steering went out, service power steering came on and advanced track service alert. Took it to the Ford dealership and even though my car only has 67,000 miles on it it will not cover it because we are right at the 10-year mark. Something has got to be done about this it seems like it’s happening to everyone and now Ford is refusing to cover it Cosby June 15, 2022 When I bought my 2011 Ford fusion last year it had 32.565 miles on it that’s why I bought it and I asked the sales guy if there were any recalls he said just the air bags now I find out there’s 7 and all very serious how can I find out if they have been fixed Thanks Cosby miles Casie May 28, 2022 2011 ford fusion power steering assist fault Anne Marie March 16, 2022 I have a ford fusion sel 2011 power steering down Clair February 20, 2022 I have a 210 ford fusion power steering went out causeing me to allmost wrecking my car Gregory January 27, 2022 I have the 2018 ford fusion SE and out of nowhere at 84,000 miles my transmission goes out while driving. on repair pal over 1,000 people are having this same problem at or around 80,000 miles. Amber January 21, 2022 I have a 2012 ford focus that the warning light came on saying a power steering malfunction. Unable to drive without power steering. Gema November 5, 2021 Power steering went out in March 2021 and rack and pinion just went out almost crashed multiple times . Repair cost me 2800 Christine November 5, 2021 While driving to pick my kids up from school my 2012 Ford fusion lost power steering and a power steering assist fault warning light came on the dashboard lights. As I went to turn I nearly hit a car in the intersection where I had to reverse and then use all my strength to make the turn. It was an extremely close call! Afterward I Went home and researched possible issues with power steering assist in my year make and model and realize there were several others with the same issue and that there was a recall 15V340000 (15S18) on certain ford vehicles. I then called my local Ford dealer and spoke with them about it they stated my vehicle had no recalls for the Vin number on that particular problem but if I would like to schedule a diagnostics I could which I did. I also called Ford motor company and and NHTSA where I was told my vehicle wasn’t included in the recall because it wasnt manufactured at a certain place. I followed up with my scheduled service appointment at my local Ford dealer where I was told that the EPAS gear was internally vaulted and needed to be replaced. However they stated it did not fall under the recall because the Vin number was not listed, and that I would need to pay $2,450.00 before tax to have it repaired. I paid $210.00 to have this diagnostics done and had to pick up my vehicle because I do not have the money to fix it. Now I am left with a vehicle that has no power steering and would be putting not only myself But anyone else on the road at great danger if I continue to drive the vehicle. This has left me in such a bind. I don’t understand why Ford is not putting this vehicle under recall and clearly it should be. What can I do about this? Janet October 30, 2021 2010 Ford Fusion. Power steering has intermittently went out. Thank god no accident, but some near misses. Stanley September 4, 2021 2013 Focus with 40,000 miles has had the power steering quit twice. both times backing out of the driveway. neither time caused an accident the first time it started working again and a Ford mechanic told us to replace the battery and then it worked for another year and it quit again the morning .

Daniel July 22, 2021 I have a 2013 focus se and only has 118,123 miles and this is the 3rd time my power steering assist failure light has came on and completely lost power steering. It was under warranty before now I have an appointment the 29th and I’m pretty sure I’m gonna have to pay them this time to fix it. So until then I have to drive the car the way it is just so I can go to work and hopefully it doesn’t just lock up on me. harry March 5, 2021 Ford Fusion is now exceeding mechanical problems on the Ford Focus on which i lost many thousands buying a new Focus. now the Ford fusion is now having major transmission problems and the “coolant” problem .where the engine sucks in the coolant causing the engine to cut out (about 10/15 seconds too little time to pull over) my engine cut out while on the freeway very scary very dangerous no power steerin no power brakes worst part Ford dealers admit there is a problem but cant fix them for 5/6 months so now i sit with a 20.000.00 garden ornament HELP PLEASE Bill December 25, 2020 So I see 500 and some odd comments on here and not one of them have been answered by anybody else why is that? Is there a legit class action lawsuit or not? I have my daughter’s 2011 Ford Fusion, 3.0L, SEL, 4 door, all wheel drive and now the power steering does not work on it at all and I cannot find anything wrong on it. It does have the “Service Advanced Track System” coming up on the dash in writing. Yet I have failed to find anything online that makes any sense on what to do about it and I have failed to find out where it is linked to the power steering but I’m sure it is cuz it’s Ford.. Is there no one out there that can answer any of the questions that have been asked in the past 500+ comments. Is there no one out there that can actually give us any kind of information of what’s going on and what to do? Is there a little over 500 plus comments here for nothing? Are all these posts here for someone’s Entertainment and just to give someone something to do for the day? Hasn’t this post gone on long enough without someone giving us some kind of an answer, 4+ years now. Come on someone say something to us. Thanks… Joey December 21, 2020 I have a 2010 Ford Fusion 2.5 motor. I was driving down a 55 mph highway , hit a pothole and lost power steering and service advance track activated. Luckily I was paying great attention and had both hands on the wheel! I almost hit and went thru a concrete wall that lead to a local pond!!!!! This is most certainly could have lead to a bad accident or worst I could have been KILLED. I will def be contacting the people necessary to address this issue. I don’t think Ford is going to recall it because as soon as they fix it , everyone’s power steering is going to fuck up again and they will have to fix it again. CHARLES December 14, 2020 I also own a 2010 Fusion that lost it’s power steering and would like to know how to get into this litigation. Tammy December 12, 2020 My 2010 fusion just did this as well.

I’ve bought my LAST Ford and I am going to dump this pile of shyt just as soon as I can !!! Paula March 7, 2020 My husband and I recently purchased a 2012 ford focus and the power steering is its main problem. Replaced the rack and pinion and still doesn’t have power steering. Not sure if used rack and pinion can be programmed. New ones are so expensive. This is very dangerous and Ford should fix the cars. I can’t afford to buy another car and can’t afford to keep money into this one for the problem to never get solved. Rebecca January 8, 2020 I have a 2012 focus steering went out while I was driving took to ford dealership they said there was no recalls on it wants $2500.00 to fix. Laura January 4, 2020 My 15 year old was driving her used 2014 Ford Focus SE on the interstate and the power steering assist failure indicator lit up. She immediately had a very hard time steering the car with a locked up steering wheel. It was even harder when she had to drive the “S” curve exit ramp. She almost hit the medium turning into a congested intersection because she couldn’t steer properly. Thankfully my daughter or anyone else was not injured. I took the car to the dealership and they determined the EPAS failed and the rack and pinion needed to be replaced. Luckily we had the car for less than 30 days and the dealership paid for the $2,800 repair. I hope no one ends up dead from Ford’s neglect and failure to take responsibility for a defective system. It’s all about the benjamin’s. TITUS December 18, 2019 Just purchased a 2010 ford fusion. Steering has gone out, hard to drive, what can I do.
