## Narrative
After Replacing some Calipers, Rotors & Pads  I took My vehicle to Meineke Car Care Center in Lawrence, Indiana to have the Brake system Flushed  ("Bled") I got my car back and immediately after pulling off I had NO PEDAL! ALMOST GOING THROUGH A FENCE! My Hand Brake saving me intime.    I declined to have it reserviced at Meineke and had it looked at by a Local Mechanic I trust.   He informed me After Bleeding the Master Cylinder, ABS Module with a Scan Tool and All Calipers that there was still no pedal.  Which meant one thing The HCU on the ABS Module is Bad.  Which was likely because 2006-2010 Models of the Ford Fusion have a Recall on the ABS/HCU for Loss of Brakes.  WHY THE 2012 MODELS DO NOT HAVE A RECALL ASWELL IS BEYOND ME?   Even though the 2012 Model Shares ALOT of Key components with the previous year's models. Including the ABS/HCU. Why is the 2012 not included? Obviously Corporations, Federal Regulators & Insurance companys in Kahoots to dampen the blow back to the Automotive industry AT THE EXPENSE OF PEOPLES LIVES!!!   DO THE RIGHT THING
