drm2013

Thank you for this helpful information. The Dealership clarified it for me as well. I tried to find it information i found online, but i did not have access to my detailed warranty as it is with the car.

Crystal - I spoke with the dealership yesterday. The informed that they will need to replace the power steering module. My Fusion has approximately 18,000 miles on it.

Thanks hermans. This is good information to hear. I have yet to hear from the dealership as to what caused it or what they can do to address the issue. Do you know if your repairs fell under the bumber 2 bumper warranty or the powertrain warranty? i only ask b/c i am nearing the end of my bumper to bumper warranty and not sure i want to risk it if this going to be an ongoing issue.

I have had my 2013 Ford Fusion for less than 2 years. I have enjoyed the car very much. It has had a few issues along the way, but nothing major. Yesterday, the Electronic Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) system failed causing the car to switch to manual steering. Thankfully this did not occur while driving the highway. In doing some research, I have learned that this has been a common issue with the Fusion. And as far as I can tell, Ford has issued recalls for the 2010 - 2012 models but has yet to expand it into the 2013 - 2015 models. Thankfully the issue will be covered by warranty. But where I am most concerned is: (1) is this an epidemic, are other owners of the new fusions experiencing this same issue? and (2) if so, has ford been able to fix the issue or has their fix only be a temporary one and the issue has occurred again? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. If it helps, my Fusion is the SE model, but it is not the Hybrid, Energi, or Ecoboost models. It has the basic 2.5L engine. Thanks, dm
