2016 Ford Fusion complaints

OWNER OF VEHICLE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM SCHOOL IN MANHATTAN. HE PROCEEDED ONTO THE 59TH STREET BRIDGE RAMP WHEN VEHICLE LOST POWER AND SHUT OFF.. HE THEN PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED.. WHEN HE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK, 'VEHICLE NOT IN PARK ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD NOTIFICATION.. LIGHT ILLUMINATED IN ALL GEAR SELECTIONS BESIDES PARK AND NEUTRAL. VEHICLE WOULD NOT DRIVE FORWARD OR IN REVERSE AND EVENTUALLY HAD TO BE TOWED VIA TRIPLE A(AAA). VEHICLE WAS JACKED UP THE NEXT DAY AND FLUID APPEARED TO BE LEAKING FROM BETWEEN THE SEAMS OF THE THE TRANSMISSION CASINGS, AS WELL AS FROM THE FRONT PAN COVER. GREY RTV SILICONE WAS PRESENT AROUND THE PAN COVER AND FLAKED OFF WITH LITTLE EFFORT. VEHICLE WAS LAST SERVICED AT CROWN FORD LYNBROOK AFTER MANY COMPLAINTS AND NO RESOLUTION FROM FORD SERVICE ON JAMAICA AVENUE. CROWN FORD CLAIMED THEY INSPECTED THE TRANSMISSION, FOUND NO FAULT OTHER THAN BEING LOW ON FLUID. FLUID WAS DRAINED OUT FOR MEASURING AND INSPECTING.. OVER 7 QUARTS DRAINED OUT AND THE FLUID WAS VERY THIN, AND BLACK WITH SPECS IN THE FLUID.. A TECHNICIAN FRIEND SCANNED FOR CODES AND GENERIC CODE SHIFT SOLENOID D WAS PULLED..

THERE HAS BEEN AN INCOMPLETE SAFETY RECALL CONCERN FOR MY 2016 FOR FUSION SINCE MAY . I WAS NOTIFIED IN MAY OF AN ISSUE IN WHICH TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFTERS COULD POSSIBLY MALFUNCTION AND CAUSE GEARS NOT TO SHIFT PROPERLY. TODAY I HOPPED INTO MY CAR AND MY CAR IS COMPLETELY STUCK IN PARK AND WILL NOT SHIFT GEARS. THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. I CAN MOVE THE KNOB BUT NOTHING HAPPENS. I EXPECT THIS ISSUE TO BE HANDLED FOR ME WITH NO OUT OF POCKET COSTS DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS ALREADY A KNOW ISSUE THE FORD HAS FAILED TO RECTIFY.

2016 FUSION WAS IN PARK TURNED OFF, STARTED AS NORMAL, PUT IT IN R TO BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, PRESSED BREAK PEDAL TO SHIFT INTO D BUT MY VEHICLE GOT STUCK IN R THEN SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. PUT MY SHIFTER IN P BUT THE LIGHT ON MY DASH STILL REFLECTED THAT IT WAS IN R THROWING THE ERROR MESSAGE "TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK", ALONG WITH OTHER RANDOM ERROR MSGS, EXP: STABILITRAC, TRACTION CONTROL, ADVANCETRAC, ENGINE HOT (IT WAS NOT),PUT TRANSMISSION IN P TO START/STOP, ETC. MY BACKUP CAMERA WAS STUCK IN REVERSE CAMERA MODE BEING THE TRANNY IS STUCK IN REVERSE. EBRAKE WORKED FINE SO I ENGAGED THAT TO KEEP CAR FROM ROLLING. I REMOVED THE CENTER COUNSEL, CUPHOLDER AND SHIFT CASINGS TO TRY THE RED MANUEL SHIFT LEVER THAT IS UNDER THE SHIFT MECHANISM TO MAKE SURE IT WAS IN FACT I'M PARK, IT WAS. TRIED STARTING IT WHILE IN THE NEUTRAL POSITION- NOTHING. THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE "BRAIN" SO I DISCONNECTED BATTERY, LET SIT FOR 20MIN TO CLEAR OUT AND RESET- NOTHING. RESEARCHED ONLINE FOR A MINUTE FOUND QUICKLY OTHER 2016 FUSION OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT BEING THE RECALL OF THE: POWER TRAIN: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: LEVER AND LINKAGE: FLOOR SHIFT. FORD MOTOR COMPANY (FORD) IS RECALLING CERTAIN 2013-2016 FUSION VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 2.5 LITER ENGINES. THE BUSHING THAT ATTACHES THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE TO THE TRANSMISSION MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME AND CAUSE THE BUSHING TO DETACH FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE CONDITION COULD ALLOW THE DRIVER TO MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER TO PARK AND REMOVE

I FOUND A FUEL LEAK ON MY 2016 FORD FUSION TITANIUM ECOBOOST. ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO WHEN I FIRST NOTICE THE PROBLEM, A SMELL OF FUEL ON THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND AS YOU GO FURTHER TO THE REAR,THE SMELL OF FUEL GETS STRONGER, I WENT TO THE GROUND TO CHECK FOR ANY SIGN OF LEAKS BUT I NEVER FOUND ANY, EXCEPT FOR THE STRONG SCENT OF FUEL. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A FUEL THATS COMING FROM THE FUEL REFILL CAP AND DIDNT PAY MUCH ATTENTION TO IT. NOT UNTIL AFTER COMING BACK FROM WORK,ABOUT 5 MONTHS LATER AND WENT TO TEND FOR MY VEHICLE THAT WERE PARKED IN OUR DRIVE WAY FOR 5 MONTHS, AS I SAT DOWN ON THE DRIVER SEAT AND START THE ENGINE, I NOTICE THE GAS ON THE TANK, IT WAS 1/4 LEFT BUT PRIOR FROM LEAVING THE VEHICLE AT THE DRIVE WAY, I REFUEL IT AND LEFT IT WITH A FULL TANK, SO I WENT AROUND MY VEHICLE TO INVESTIGATE THE UNDER CARRIAGE OF THE CAR AND ENDED UP SEEING A STAIN OF FUEL LEAK ON THE GROUND AND AS I WENT DEEP DOWN UNDER THE VEHICLE WERE THE TANK IS LOCATED, I START TO SEE A TRACE OF FUEL DRIPPING DOWN FROM THE GAS TANK AND TO THE TANK SHIELD OR TANK COVER?! I CANT NAMED THE PLATE THAT HOLDS THE FUEL TANK AND AS I TRACE IT FURTHER TO THE GAS TANK I SAW WERE THE LEAK IS COMING FROM AND ITS COMING FROM WERE THE REFILL TUBE WAS INSTALLED..! I START TO CHECK THE WEB FOR ANY CLUES ON WHAT COULD CAUSE IT FROM GETTING A CRACK ON THE TANK AND FOUND THAT FORD FUSIONS HAD RECALLS FOR THE SAME CAR, SAME BRAND, SAME YEAR BUT DIFFERENT MANUFACTURED MONTH DATE BUT SAME ON THE MANUFA

THE CAR WAS BROUGHT INTO DEALER FOR OVERHEATING 3 TIMES AND TWICE FOR COILS AND SPARK PLUGS REPAIR. UPON BUYING THE VEHICLE COMPLAINED OF CARE NOT STAYING IN GEAR. THE PROBLEM THEY CLAIMED WAS FIXED, BUT SEVERAL MONTHS AGAIN ISSUE CAM AGAIN. AT THAT TIME IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL. THE CAR HAS HAD SEVERAL WARRANTY REPAIRS. ONE OF THE FANS WENT OUT ON THE CAR. REPORTED AT 11 MPH CAR WAS HEATED AT 289 DEGREES. CAR WAS IN PARK WHEN IT PROCEEDED TO STILL MOVE FORWARD IN THE PARKING LOT. EMERGENCY BREAKS HAD TO BE APPLIED AND THE CARE WENT INTO SAFETY MODE AND WAS NOT DRIVEABLE. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE WITHIN TWO YEARS.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THERE WERE A ISSUE THAT THE TURNING LEFT AND RIGHT DIRECTIONAL WEREN'T WORKING. NOTHING WOULD COME TO THE HUD IN THE VEHICLE NO BLINKERS NEITHER SOUND. I ASSUMED IT'S AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, ALSO THE CONTROLS FROM THE STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T WORK ASWELL. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAD FOUND NOTHING. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT, DUE TO A SCARE OF THE STEERING WHEEL NOT FUNCTIONING AGAIN AND WHILE DRIVING AROUND THE BLINKER WON'T ACTIVATE WHEN ITS SUPPOSE TOO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS CHANGING GEARS FROM PARK INTO DRIVE, THE GEAR WENT INTO REVERSE ON ITS OWN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHIFTING INTO PARK, THE GEAR DISPLAY INDICATED THE PARK GEAR WAS SELECTED; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE STILL REVERSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE 'TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK' WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED. THE CONTACT'S BROTHER, AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WAS ABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE BY MANUALLY MOVING THE GEAR INTO PARK. LATER THAT DAY, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT CALLED PAUL MILLER FORD (LOCATED AT 975 E NEW CIRCLE RD, LEXINGTON, KY 40505, (859) 317-2061) AND THE MANUFACTURER AND NOTIFIED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

MY CAR'S ENGINE SHUTS OFF AFTER ACCELERATING WITH NO WARNING. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN AFTER A COLD START. IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A WARM START. NO ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON DURING THE PROCESS AND MY CAR REMAINS IN MOTION BUT CAN'T ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE STARTS TO SHAKE VIGOROUSLY AS THOUGH IT LOSES 1 OR 2 CYLINDERS. THEN IT SHUTS OFF. I NEED TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT GOING, BUT IT BECOMES DANGEROUS WHEN ON THE ROAD. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A SECOND STARTUP OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AFTER THE SECOND FAILED DRIVE, EVERYTHING WORKS CORRECTLY AGAIN. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS KEEP WORKING WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.

FORD RECALL 18S20 FOR SHIFTER LINKAGE BUSHING. MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME FAILURE, BUT I'M BEING TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT AFFECTED DUE TO DATE OF MANUFACTURE (12/2015). VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN REVERSE, BACKED OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE, THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT RESPOND AND WAS STILL IN REVERSE. INSPECTION AND TROUBLESHOOTING FOUND THE SHIFT LINKAGE END DETACHED FROM THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER.

MY FORD FUSION 2016 IS HAVING A BAD ISSUE AND IT IS A DANGEROUS ONE. SO I WAS DRIVING AROUND WITH MY GRANDMOTHER AND SIBLINGS, WE HAD STOPPED BY THE SUPERMARKET TO GET SOME FOOD. AND WHEN I FINISHED PARKING MY VEHICLE BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HAS OPENED EXCEPT FOR THE TWO REAR DOORS MY SIBLINGS COULDNT GET OUT THE CAR IF THE HANDLE IS PULLED OUTSIDE OF THE REAR DOOR. ITS A VERY DANGEROUS THING BECAUSE IMAGINE IF IN A CAR CRASH AND SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE REAR SIT HOW ARE THEY GOING TO OPEN THE DOOR!?. THIS NEED A FIX.

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE IT WILL SHAKE AND STALL AND THEN CUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING AND I'LL HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND THEN IT WILL START RIGHT BACK UP. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY SINCE IT DOESN'T WARN YOU. IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING ANYWHERE, ON HIGHWAY OR STREET.

I DRIVE A 2016 FORD FUSION SE AWD WITH THE 2.0L ECOBOOST/GTDI MOTOR. I WAS AT A GAS STATION REFUELING MY VEHICLE, WITH THE 87 OCTANE FUEL THE OEM CALLS FOR ON THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABOUT 1/4 TANK BEFORE REFUELING AND I FILLED MY TANK UNTIL FULL. UPON STARTING MY CAR, I ALWAYS TURN THE KEY RIGHT BEFORE IGNITION AND WAIT FOR THE FUEL PUMPS TO DRAW GAS TO THE MOTOR, THEN START IT. STARTED SEEMINGLY FINE, HOWEVER, WHILE I WAS RESETTING MY MILEAGE TRIP COUNTERS, I NOTICED, AND FELT MY RPM'S DROP DOWN INTO THE 300-400 AREA AND MY MOTOR SHOOK MY CAR. I KIND OF WAS SURPRISED AS MY CAR HAD NEVER DONE THIS, SO I FIGURED MAYBE IT WAS JUST AN ENGINE STUTTER. BUT THEN UPON WAITING A FEW MORE SECONDS, IT DID IT AGAIN, 4 MORE TIMES AND FELT LIKE MY MOTOR WAS READY TO STALL OUT. I WAS STILL PARKED/STATIONARY BESIDE A GAS PUMP SO I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE TO GO PARK MYSELF IN AN ACTUAL SPOT SO I WASN'T IN THE WAY OF OTHER VEHICLES. I KEPT MY CAR RUNNING IN PARK TO SEE IF THE RPM'S WOULD DROP AGAIN, BUT UPON WAITING FIVE MINUTES, IT DID NOT. THE RPM'S WERE A BIT WOBBLY THOUGH ON THE TACHOMETER BUT DID NOT SIGNIFICANTLY DROP. NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON. I WASN'T TAKING ANY CHANCES, I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY CAR SERVICED. TURNS OUT, MY CANISTER PURGE VALVE WAS STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION. SOUNDS ALL TOO FAMILIAR, ACCOUNTING THAT FORD ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH MANY FORD FOCUS MODELS, WITH THE EXACT SAME MOTOR. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT CAN RESULT IN CRASH/I

THIS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE 2016 & ITS 2019... CRAZY IT NEVER BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS SITUATION AND I READ LOADS OF COMMENTS OF HOW PEOPLE GOT HURT OR ALMOST GOT HURT FROM THIS & GET REJECTED FROM FORD ON FIXING THE PROBLEM & NOT WANTING TO ADDRESS IT...

MORE COMPLAINTS THE BETTER CHANCE OF GETTING THEM TO FIX THE [XXX] CARS THEY [XXX] UP N SELL PPL... I'M SCARED TO DRIVE THE ONLY CAR & TRANSPORTATION I HAVE TO WORK BECAUSE I FEAR ME TURNING TO HARD OR TIGHT N THE WHEEL LOCKING UP WHILE CAR IN MOTION N I GET INTO A ACCIDENT N GET KILLED... LUCKY IT HAPPENED WHEN PULLING INTO A GAS STATION... THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND HAD NO CONTROL OVER IT... MESSAGE SHOW UP SAYING "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF N RESTART IT & BY DOING THAT IT'S A TEMPORARY FIX INTO U MAKE ANOTHER HARD TURN & [XXX] UP PART ABOUT IT IS THAT ONCE U RESTART THE CAR THE LIGHT GO OFF N MESSAGE AND WILL NOT SHOW BACK UP INTO THE PROBLEM OCCUR AGAIN MAKING IT HARD TO SHOW PROOF...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING ASSIST FAULT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE DEFECT; HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,740.

WHEN MAKING A WIDE OR QUICK TURN, THE CAR STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK UP & WHILE THE CAR IN MOTION & PULL TOWARDS ONE SIDE AND DASH LIGHTS WILL SHOW UP SAYING "STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED" AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE CONTROL OF STEERING WHEEL UNLESS I TURN CAR OFF AND THEN THE DASH LIGHT WILL TURN OFF N NOT SHOW UP INTO PROBLEM OCCUR AGAIN.. VERY DANGEROUS N HAPPY IT HAPPENED WHEN I GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY... 3RD TIME TODAY IT DID THIS, SUCKS TO NOT BE ABLE TO FEEL SAFE DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE, CANT DRIVE IT INTO THIS FIX.

STEERING ASSIST FAULT... WILL LOCK YOUR STEERING WHEEL WHILE YOU DRIVING YOUR CAR.. ITS LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ALL OVER THE INTERNET WILL THE 2016 FORD FUSION AND IT NEVER GOT A RECALL FOR THIS... ITS DANGEROUS, I THOUGHT IT WAS BRAKES OR WHEEL ALIGNMENT BUT ITS A POWERING ERROR.

POSER STEERING WILL RANDOMLY QUIT ALONG WITH HILL ASSIST AND TURN THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON. HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE WERE CHARGED $140 TO BE TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG NOW THE POSE STEERING IS COMPLETELY GONE AND WILL NOT RESET.

WHEN DRIVING ON CITY STREETS, THE FORD FUSION JERKS HARD AND SPUTTERS WHEN IT CHANGES GEARS (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). WHEN ACCELERATING ON THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE WILL JERK HARD UPON PRESSING DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL. DURING DECELERATION, WHEN EXITING THE HIGHWAY, FROM SPEEDS OF 70 MPH TO 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE WILL ALSO SPUTTER AND JERK FROM THE GEARS CHANGING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN TO A FORD MOTOR COMPANY SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND NO REPAIRS WERE CONDUCTED DUE TO AN "INABILITY OF THE TECHNICIAN TO REPLICATE THE SYMPTOMS OF THE CAR."

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK MY STEERING SUDDENLY LOCKED UP AND JERKED AND THEN I GOT MULTIPLE ALERTS AND LOST POWER STEERING. THE ALERTS WERE "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" "STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED" "HILL ASSIST NOT WORKING" "SERVICE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM" AND THERE WERE TWO TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS. AFTER WORK THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS AND ALERTS WERE STILL ON AND I DID NOT HAVE POWER STEERING ON THE DRIVE HOME.

TOOK THE CAR IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENCE & WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO BREAK THE LUG BOLTS TO ROTATE TIRES AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. NO ONE HAS TOUCHED THIS CAR, BUT THE DEALERSHIP. FORD HAS ADMITTED TO THE FAULTY DESIGN, BUT NEVER ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE DONE AT NO COST TO ME.

2016 FORD FUSION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH THEIR TRANSMISSION. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE MADE A WHOPPING/WHINNING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING. THE CONSUMER NO LONGER OWNS THE VEHICLE. *S

I LOOKED AT THE GEAR SHIFT AND IT WAS ON P (PARK), BUT THE DISPLAY SHOWED S (STANDARD) WHICH I WAS NOT USING AT ALL. I HAD TO TURN THE KEY TO OFF TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THEN IT WOULD NOT START AND IT ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE OFF.

DROVE TO WORK ONE DAY IN JULY 2019. GOT TO WORK WENT TO CLOSE DRIVER DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT CLOSE. DOVE IT HOME WITH A BUNGEE CORD HOLDING THE DOOR CLOSED. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP LATER THAT DAY AND THEY REPLACED A LATCH AT NO COST TO US BECAUSE IT WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. NOW ON AUGUST 24TH 2019, MY MOM AND DAUGHTER AND I WERE SHOPPING AND WE GOT TO A STORE, MY DAUGHTER GOT OUT OF THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AND IT WOULDN'T CLOSE JUST LIKE THE PRIOR TIME. THIS TIME I AM OUT OF WARRANTY SO I HAVE TO PAY APPROXIMATELY $500 TO GET IT FIXED AND GET A RENTAL CAR SO I CAN GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK. BOTH TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED IN PARK BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF WE WERE IN MOTION. WE DID NOTHING TO THE DOORS EXCEPT OPEN AND CLOSE THEM WHICH IS WHAT THEIR PURPOSE IS! THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND SEEMS TO BE THE SAME ISSUE THEY HAVE HAD ON THIS SAME MODEL FROM 2013-2015 FROM WHAT I HAVE READ. PLEASE HELP GET THIS ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF.

HOW DOES NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT EVER COME ON? THIS COULD HAVE KILLED ME ON THE HIGHWAY. HOW DOES A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 128,000 (MOSTLY HIGHWAY) MILES GO INTO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE? CAR HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED.

I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT IN THE PARKING LOT AND I TRIED TO PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE BUT THE GEAR SHIFT WAS NOT REGISTERING. GEAR SHIFT INSIDE THE CAR SAID DRIVE BUT MY CAR WAS STILL IN PARK. LATER FOUND OUT AFTER I DID SOME INSPECTING THAT THE SHIFT CABLE BUSHING HAD POP OFF, AND THAT'S WHY I WASN'T ABLE TO MOVE MY CAR

WHEN I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, INCLUDING A TIRE ROTATION, THE MECHANICS HAD TO USE A "RIPPER" TO TAKE ALL BUT THREE OF MY LUG NUTS OFF. APPARENTLY, FORD'S LUG NUTS ARE A TWO METAL DESIGN THAT IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO SWELLING OVER PERIODS OF USE. AFTER DOING SOME HOMEWORK I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A PERVASIVE ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO THE COURTS AND THE NHTSA, YET IT WASN'T CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. HMMM, REALLY? SO, IF SOMEONE GOT A FLAT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE AND NEEDED TO CHANGE THEIR TIRE, BUT COULDN'T REMOVE THE LUG NUTS, THAT'S NOT A SAFETY CONCERN? AS WIDESPREAD AS THIS ISSUE IS, WOULDN'T IT BE PRUDENT TO RETHINK THIS? I DON'T HAVE PICTURES OF MY OLD LUG NUTS, THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THEM, BUT I DO HAVE A RECEIPT FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THEM. I HOPE THIS PROBLEM IS REMEDIED SOON. I CERTAINLY HOPE THERE HASN'T BEEN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS AND I HOPE THERE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WHICH HAS NOW HAPPENED 4 TIMES. THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES DOWN. THE DASH GOES DARK, THE A/C DOES NOT WORK, THE TURN SIGNALS DON'T WORK, THE DOORS AND WINDOWS WILL NOT WORK AND I CANNOT EVEN GET OUT OF THE CAR. IT DOES NOT HELP TO TURN OFF AND RESTART THE CAR, EVERYTHING WILL START WORKING EVENTUALLY ON ITS OWN. I CAN STEER AND BRAKE, BUT THAT IS ALL. THIS LAST TIME I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS FRIGHTENED THAT I WOULD BE HIT BEFORE I COULD GET ON THE SHOULDER. WHEN I TOOK IT IN, AS USUAL, THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT I CONTACT FORD FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE. THEY DENIED MY REQUEST, SAYING I WAS OUTSIDE THE TIME PERIOD FOR FILING. THE CASE NUMBER IS FMA CAS-22012807. I BOUGHT THE CAR AT RACEWAY FORD IN HARTSVILLE, SC, WHERE I RESIDED, IN MARCH OF 2016. I FIRST HAD TROUBLE WITH IT IN JUNE, 2016 AND TOOK IT IN. THE AGAIN IN DECEMBER, 2016 AND JANUARY, 2018.

IN JANUARY, 2018 THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE COMPUTER SYSTEM BUT THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. I HOPE THERE IS SOMETHING THAT THE NHTSA CAN HELP WITH.
