When trying to brake, the brake pedal goes down further than what it is supposed to and it takes longer than normal to brake, causing almost wrecks.  It happens suddenly when trying to brake sometimes and it is very scary.  There was a previous recall on the brake lines and it said they needed to be flushed out and all.  I had this done to my car before and thought everything was okay.  But it is not.  I called Ford and they said there is currently a Customer Satisfaction Program that covers the repair of the Hydraulic control unit but it is limited to vehicles under 15 years old.  My car is 16 years old so it does not qualify for this program.  I asked why this wasn't a recall because it is such a big safety issue and they stated they couldn't make it a recall, it would have to be reported and issued from NHTSA.  If the brakes/brake pedal is messing up and this is a known issue, then the vehicles' age should not matter.  It should be recalled and fixed because this is such a huge safety concern and obviously a defect when manufactured.  I don't have another car to drive and I'm sure there are numerous others in this same position and I feel it is imperative that this be looked into further and issued as a recall so people can remain safe and I'm sure this would save lives.  I almost ran into a car today and it is extremely hazardous. It is very dangerous and scary and there is no warning light or anything indicating anything is wrong until driving it and it randomly happens.  I have taken care of my car and had the previous recalls fixed but Ford knows this is an issue and very dangerous so it seems clear this needs to be issued as a recall.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2009","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"FUSION","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
