2010 FORD FUSION — Complaint #2150720
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES filed November 21, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2150720 (ODI reference 11700746) concerns a 2010 FORD FUSION and was filed on November 21, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 7, 2025. The report was geocoded to Florida based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same FORD FUSION cohort independently describe similar service brakes failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2010 FORD FUSION shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
I am reporting a serious safety defect in my vehicle. While driving, the power steering suddenly failed without any warning, resulting in complete loss of steering control. At the same time, the brake warning light, ABS light, and traction control light illuminated, suggesting possible failure of critical braking and stability systems. This incident placed my safety and the safety of others at immediate risk, as the vehicle could not be steered properly and essential safety features may have been disabled. The problem persists, as the vehicle continues to have no functioning power steering and the warning lights remain on. The defective components are available for inspection, and the issue has been reproduced consistently since the initial failure. Given the severity of this malfunction and the danger it poses, I am requesting that a recall be issued to address this defect.
