Dealing with the recurring EPS “High Friction” fault code (DTC C102D) on 2013-2016 Ford Fusion models? Find out how to diagnose and fix the true cause of the issue in this Inside the Brands episode. Prevent repeated repairs by understanding the key factors behind this problem.

Although the fault code suggests a steering issue, experienced technicians often trace it back to these causes:

1. Sticking or loose suspension components
2. Low tire pressure
3. Hidden damage from minor collisions, like curb impacts

Remember, if you don’t fix the root problem, it will continue to throw the same fault code, no matter how many times the rack is replaced. Our advice? A visual inspection is critical for a successful repair when dealing with this issue.
