2010 FORD FUSION SEL. CUSTOMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO CONTINUED TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.*SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP HARSHLY AND HESITATE ON ACCELERATION. THE RECALL REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VALVE BODY AND SOLENOID BODY WERE DEFECTIVE. ALSO, ONE OF THE TIRES WAS LEAKING AIR, THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE TRACTION AND BRAKES. THERE WERE NOISES COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT LOCK INTO PLACE, THE CD PLAYER DID NOT WORK AT TIMES, THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR DID NOT STAY IN PLACE, THE GAS OVER FLOW TUBE WAS INOPERATIVE, THE VEHICLE WOULD PULL HARD WHEN THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR HAD TO BE SLAMMED EXTREMELY HARD, IN ORDER TO CLOSE IT. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WAS BACKWARDS. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER DRAGGED ON THE WINDSHIELD AND THE VEHICLE WOULD SOMETIMES SURGE ON ITS OWN. EACH TIME THE CONSUMER WENT TO THE DEALER ABOUT CERTAIN PROBLEMS, SHE WAS TOLD NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I NOTICED THE DASH BOARD AROUND THE AIRBAG IS SEPARATING ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO I TRIED TO PUSH THE SEAM BACK DOWN BUT IT STILL PUCKERS. YESTERDAY I TRIED TO START MY CAR AND THERE WAS A CONTINUOUS CLICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD AND THE SECURITY LOCK LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT WERE FLASHING VERY FAST. I JUST PARKED THE CAR ABOUT 1 HOUR BEFORE AND THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS UNTIL I CAME BACK TO START IT. I TRIED FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR BUT COULD NOT GET IT STARTED. I HAVE NOTICED THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS CAR AND THE SAME ISSUES. THIS DOES SEEM LIKE A RECALL ISSUE. I WANTED TO SUPPORT AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS FROM ONE OF THE OLDEST AMERICAN AUTO MAKERS. I AM HOPING YOU CAN FIX THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I NEED TO GET THE WORK AND THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. I LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE THERE IS NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE. *TR
