2014 Ford Fusion complaints

CAR HAS LIMITED POWER AND ACCELERATION. HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING. WHEN CLIMBING A HILL, TRANSMISSION WONT DOWNSHIFT PROPERLY. WHEN MANEUVERING "S" CURVES YOU CAN FEEL RESISTANCE IN THE STEERING. THERE IS A WRENCH LIGHT FOR THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM THAT CANT BE LOCATED.

I DON'T KNOW IF I'M THE CORRECT SITE BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED WITH MY DEFROSTER ON MY WINDSHIELD. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING THAT THE VISIBILITY ON MY WINDSHIELD IS EXTREMELY POOR; CAN BARELY SEE OUT OF THE WINDOW. I TRY MANY VARIABLES TO REMEDY IT, AC, HEAT, HIGH, LOW ETC. NOTHING WORKS TO REMEDY AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS.

WAS DRIVING AND MADE A TURN AND MY DRIVER DOOR FLEW OPEN

THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING NEEDED REPLACEMENT AT 69K MILES.THE 2013 FORD FUSIONS HAD A POWER STEERING RECALL BUT THE 2014 DID NOT.

I HAVE LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 40 MPH ON I-20, A 70MPH ROAD SYSTEM, CAR JOLTS OR JUMPS EVEN WITHOUT FOOT ON ACCELERATOR SO THAT I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR'S ACCELERATION. GAS GAUGE JUMPS WILDLY AND RANDOMLY FROM 22 MPG TO 99 MPG. BRAKE LIGHTS AND OTHER LIGHTING SYSTEMS REMAIN ON WHEN CAR IS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND HEADLIGHTS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE TURNED TO OFF POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, AFTER THE CAR IS IN PARK AND TURNED OFF, VEHICLE WILL JUMP FORWARD SEVERAL INCHES. SEVERAL ADDITIONAL INCONSISTENT LIGHT ISSUES WHEN CAR IS TURNED ON AND OFF. PASSENGER SEATBELT DOES NOT WORK. PROBLEMS BEGAN 2018 AND CONTINUE TO PRESENT DAY. LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP UNCONCERNED AND UNHELPFUL IN PRIORITIZING THE REPAIRS AFTER MULTIPLE CALLS AND DIRECT DISCUSSION WITH SERVICE MANAGER.

MY 2014 FORD FUSION WITH 54,000 MILES HAS AN ENGINE PROBLEM. SOMEHOW THE COOLANT/ANTI-FREEZE WAS ALLOWED TO LEAK INTO THE ENGINE. INITIALLY I SENT IT TO FORD OF WAXAHACHIE, TX WHEN THE LIGHT FIRST CAME ON. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS LOW COOLANT AND SENT MY CAR HOME. 5 DAYS LATER I'M 20 MILES FROM HOME AND IT OVERHEATS AGAIN AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THE COOLANT CONTINUED TO GET INTO THE ENGINE THROUGH WARPED GASKET OR CYLINDER AND THIS TIME IT RUINED MY ENGINE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE FORD AND THEY DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY OF THE BLAME ON THE MISDIAGNOSIS. INSTEAD THEY PREFER I PAY $6,000 FOR A NEW ENGINE.

SEATBELT LOCKS UP WHEN YOU TRY TO HOOK IT ON PASSENGER SIDE. VEHICLE NOT MOVING BUT RUNNING

POWER STEERING ASSIST DISABLED WHILE DRIVING AT 65MPH ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT STEERING THE VEHICLE BECAME VERY DIFFICULT.

TAKATA RECALL: THE CAR IS STALLING WHILE I AM IN DRIVE, WITH SPEEDS UP TO 70 MPH. IT ALSO WILL NOT START AFTER I HAVE PUT GAS IN THE TANK. I HAVE TO STEP ON THE GAS TO GWT IT TO START. THE CAR IS ALSO SHAKING BACK AND FORTH WHILE IN PARK JUST TRYING TO STAY STARTED. THEN IT WILL DIE.

THE CAR SHOWED A STEERING ASSIST FAULT AS WELL AS HILL START ASSIST, ACTIVETRAC AND COLLISION WARNINGS ALL BEING UNAVAILABLE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY SAID IT WAS NOT UNDER A RECALL OR COVERED BY WARRANTY.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND THEN STOPPED AND TRY TO PUT IT IN DRIVE, I THEN REALIZED THE CAR WAS STILL IN REVERSE. THE GEAR LET ME SHIFT INTO PARK, BUT THE CAR ITSELF WAS STILL IN REVERSE. I HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND PUT MY PARKING BRAKE ON. THE GEAR IS STUCK IN PARK AND WILL NOT SHIFT BUT THE DISPLAY ON THE DASH SAYS REVERSE. MY CAR WILL TURN ON, BUT WILL NOT START. *TR

THE PURGE VALVE WENT OUT ON MY CAR AFTER NEVER HAVING ANY PERFORMANCE OR EMISSIONS RELATED ISSUES. UPON RESEARCHING, IT SEEMS TO BE RATHER COMMON IN FORD FUSIONS. IS THERE A RECALL REVIEW WARRANTED AT THIS TIME? I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND STARTED HEARING A LOUD HUMMING, VIBRATING SOUND COMING FROM MY GAS TANK / GAS CAP AREA. IT CONTINUED TO HUM EVERY 15 SECONDS OR SO OVER THE NEXT 20 MINUTES UNTIL I ARRIVED AT WORK. THERE WERE NO OTHER ISSUES AND MY CAR SEEMED TO RUN JUST FINE. THIS IS, HOWEVER, AN EMISSIONS CONCERN AND SEEMS TO BE COMMON IN FORD FUSION FORUMS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE FOR A RECALL ALERT.

STEERING ASSIST FAULT LIGHT ON. POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET . TRACTION CONTROL AND HILL START FAULT LIGHT CAME. SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL.

PURCHASED THE CAR USED, WITH 77,600 MILES ON IT. AFTER OWNING IT A COUPLE DAYS, STARTED NOTICING AN ISSUE. WHEN PRESSING GAS TO GO, THE CAR HESITATES AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS GOING TO STALL, SHAKES A BIT. WE TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER, WHO "RESET THE COMPUTER TO ADJUST TO MY SON'S DRIVING". DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WAS TOLD CLUTCH ISSUE AND WOULD COST $1300 TO REPAIR!!!! NO WAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR SOUNDED AND ILLUMINATED. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS FOR THE PASSENGER DOOR AND THE SECOND OCCURRENCE WAS FOR THE DRIVER'S DOOR.

I HAVE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS/RECALLSON THIS VEHICLE. EVERYTHING FROM THE TRANSMISSION, TO THE RADIATOR, COOLANT, STEERING WHEEL COLMN, AND NOW THE AIR BAG SENSOR IS LIT AS 'ON'. I BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A TAKATA RECALL, HOWEVER IT IS, WHAT I BELIEVE JUST ANOTHER RECALL WAITING TO HAPPEN. WHEN THE CAR IS A LEMON,WHY SHOULD I BE CHARGED TO HAVE ANYTHING DIAGNOSED TO SEE THE 'CAUSE' OF ANY PROBLEM?

BOTH MY REAR DOOR LATCHES HAVE FAILED CAUSING THE DOOR TO BE UNABLE TO BE CLOSED SHUT, AND THIS HAS HAPPENED SUDDENLY ONCE WITH MY SON IN THE BACK SEAT NEXT TO THE DOOR. THE DOOR BECOMES UNABLE TO BE CLOSED AND WILL SWING OPEN UPON TURNS ETC. THIS WAS A MAJOR RECALL OF SIMILAR FORD FUSION MODELS IN THE 2014 MANUFACTURER YEAR FOR SOME REASON MY VIN DID NOT POP UP FOR THIS PARTICULAR RECALL BUT CLEARLY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THIS EXISTING RECALL SO I CAN GET THIS RESOLVED BY THE COMPANY.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW.. IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE FROM THE FIRST WEEK... IT HAS A OIL LEAK.. THE CAR JERKS WHEN YOUR DRIVING BUT YET THEY SAY IT HAS TO GET USE TO MY DRIVING WELL SEPTEMBER WILL BE 5 YEARS IT SHOULD BE USE TO MY DRIVING.. YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR UP AND IT SAY YOU HAVE 300 MILES TO EMPTY DRIVE 2 MILES AND THEN IT SAYS 0 MILES TILL EMPTY.. THE RADIO AND THE AC COME ON BY THEIR SELF..THE CAR ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO CRANK, WENT AND GOT IT CHECKED, SAID THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH STARTER OR ALTERNATOR NEEDS TO BATTERY, OK GOT NEW BATTERY AND IT STILL DRAGS TO START... THIS IS THE WORSE CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED .. NOW YOU CAN BE DRIVING AND SOME MESSAGE COMES UP TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, I DON'T UNDERSTAND I THINK THIS CAR WAS A LEMON RIGHT OFF THE CAR LOT

CAR RANDOMLY LOSES COMPLETE POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY WHEN STARTING FOR FIRST TIME (WHEN OFF FOR AWHILE) BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED AT STOP SIGN/LIGHT AND EVEN WHILE IN MOTION AT HIGH SPEED. THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENS (RELAY CHATTER). SUBSEQUENT RESTART WILL YIELD SAME RESULTS UNTIL FINALLY BECOMES STABLE AND I AM ABLE TO DRIVE. ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN DURING WARMER SUMMER MONTHS.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE FAN SPEED ON THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM WITHOUT MANIPULATION DECREASED TO A FAN SPEED OF ONE WHILE ON A CITY STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FAILED TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHALMERS FORD (2500 RIO RANCHO BLVD SE, RIO RANCHO, NM 87124) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LOCK ON THE DOOR LATCH FRACTURED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V210000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES).

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND OVERHEATING LIGHTS FOR COOLANT CAME IN AND DROPPED RIGHT BACK DOWN. WARNING MESSAGE CAME RIGHT BACK ON 5 MINUTES LATER. IF THE CAR MOVES FOR MORE THEN 1.5 HOURS STRAIGHT IT COMES ON. THE WARNING LIGHT FLICKERS UP AND DOWN BECAUSE OF THE TEMPERATURE. THE TEMPERATURE GAGE IN THE CAR WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP AND DROP BACK DOWN REAL QUICK.

BOTH DOOR LATCHES ON DRIVER SIDE HAVE BROKEN PREVENTING THE DOOR FROM LATCHING. THEY HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED. FOUND RECALLS ON SIMILAR VEHICLES BUT THIS WAS EXEMPT. BELIEVE THE ISSUE TO BE BROADER THAN THE RECALL DETAILED.

FORD RECALL 15S16 / NHTSA 17V210 OCCURRED IN MAY 2017 AND WE HAD DOOR LATCH BROKEN PAWL SPRING TAB REPLACED ON ALL 4 DOORS AS REQUIRE BY THE RECALL. IN JUNE 2019, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR FAILED AGAIN AND WE TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE. THEY REPLACED THE ONE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM AND WE WERE CHARGED $100 FOR THAT REPLACEMENT WHICH WAS THE DEDUCTIBLE ON OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY. WE OPENED UP A THREE CASES WITH FORD AND AUTONATION FORD DEALER IN HOUSTON. CASES 21829217, 21915875 AND 21893152. WE FEEL THAT FORD SHOULD REFUND OUR $100 AND REPLACE THE OTHER 3 LATCHES ONCE AGAIN, WHICH THEY REFUSE TO DO AND THEY CLOSED OUT THE CASES. VERBAL DISCUSSIONS WITH FORD AND WITH AUTONATION HAVE PROVED FUTILE. WHEN THE LATCH FAILS, WE CANNOT CLOSE THE DOOR SECURELY WHICH IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. WE HAVE ELDERLY PARENTS AND SMALL GRANDCHILDREN WHO RIDE IN THIS CAR QUITE OFTEN. SINCE THE PASSENGER DOOR LATCH FAILED IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR, WE THINK THE OTHERS WILL FAIL AGAIN AS WELL WHICH LEAVES US FEELING VERY UNSAFE.

WHILE DRIVING CAR DOWN HIGHWAY AT APPROX 70 MPH, SUDDENLY THE BRAKES STOP FUNCTIONING NORMALY MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP VEHICLE WITHOUT USING EMERGENCY BRAKE. ALSO EXPERIENCE EXTREME LOSS OF POWER MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO REACH A SPEED OF 35 MPH WITH PEDAL PUSHED TO FLOOR. FORD DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED AS VACUUM PUMP. FORD VACUUM PUMP PURCHASED AND REPLACED. WITHIN 3 WEEKS EXACT SAME ISSUE AGAIN ON INTERSTATE. BRAKES NEARLY USELESS TO BRING CAR TO A STOP, LOSS OF POWER. HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED TO GET IT HOME. CALLED TO QUESTION WARRANTY ON FORD VACUUM PUMP - INFORMED VACUUM PUMP IS ON "NATIONAL BACKORDER" AND CAN'T EVEN BE GIVEN AN APPROXIMATE DATE AS TO WHEN A NEW PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. MAYBE IT'S TIME FOR A RECALL???

TOTAL COST TO ME WAS $2200. I HAVE NOTIFIED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE OF THE ISSUE, BUT OF COURSE, NO ACTION WAS TAKEN YET. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER, ESPECIALLY AT LOWER SPEEDS.
