Unknown, I have had to refill my antifreeze 2 times in one month. Took it to the mechanic and they believe that the problem is with the gasket leading to the engine.

While I drive my steering got stuck and stiffed. Hard to turn the wheels. Luckily when I entered my neighborhood stop the vehicle. Then I got the message from Ford Pass app saying *Electronic power steering control module fault and *collision warning system lost radar signal. If the steering stuck happened in highways while drive possibly life threatening issue

*Upon check engine light, oriellys advised of misfire on p0301- installed following day due to part shipping to store. Day after coil ignition and spark plug replacement, engine light came back on which mechanic said not to worry as long as car isnt shaking. The following day after taking kids to school, the battery died at the school. With only the check engine light on I waited 10 minutes and the car started. On my way home on the highway, the car just stalled in the middle of the highway. There was a brief alarm stating coolant temperature high turn off car. Several dealerships advised soonest availability was December. I needed my car asap. I had it towed to pepboys who did a full diagnostic and provided documentation saying I'd need a new engine. 78250 miles, premium gas, annual premium treatment at oil changes with royal purple, schedule a tuneup with diagnostic, new tires, wash tub monthly cleans. I treat my car better than I do my kids. I called ford and asked about warranty info which they advised the only way to see if warranty covers it is to have a certified dealership diagnostic. After searching for days, I finally got one to do the diagnostic and said there is an issue with the coolant destroying the engine. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? *Extremely dangerous with car stalled in middle of highway. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? *yes Has the vehicle or component been inspected by t

I have 69,400 miles on my car. Last week, out of no where, the engine started shaking and clicking very loud. The repair shop said the flex plate is cracked and it’s a common issue with Ford. I went to the dealership and they even said it happens all the time. This is nearly a $2000 job. Why isn’t there a recall?!

I routinely take my car to get oil changes and check for any other problems. So 2 days after getting my oil changed at a dealership my car began to overheat which shouldn’t have happened because when I got my oil changed they filled the liquids to proper levels. So I added antifreeze because my reservoir was empty once cooled I opened my reservoir and antifreeze began to come back up to the proper level. After getting it home that same thing happened and haven’t moved it since. Now my car shakes and the overheating light stays on. There is no visible leak and I don’t know where the antifreeze goes. My car is only about 3 years old and I don’t believe this should be happening. I take good care of my car routine check ups and oil changes. After doing some research online I’ve seen so many people with my same car reporting the same issue. I believe this problem has been recalled in older years (2014-2016) unsure of exact years but I believe it wasn’t fixed and now has cause major stress for me because I only have one car. Please look into this because right now I’m out of a car and I don’t know what to do and I am still paying on it and can’t even drive it.

2019 Ford Fusion SE. Car kept stalling and running hot. I took it in and there’s coolant in the cylinders, which means new engine. Haven’t had the car a year and a half. Chevy sent me to Ford, Ford wants my extended warranty to pay for it. If it does, I’ll be capped off and still have to come up with $1000!!

A few months ago, I began to notice that my engine would shake a little upon startup but would stop and run normally after a few seconds. This wouldn't happen every time I started my vehicle so I didn't pay much attention to it until my check engine light eventually came on one day after startup. I brought my car to an auto parts shop to have the OBII read and it came up as a misfire in cylinder 4. I contacted my Ford dealer and made an appointment for the following day. Upon taking my car to the dealer, they informed me that my car is leaking coolant into cylinder 4 and that is why it was misfiring. They told me that this was an issue that Ford was aware of but did not have a fix for, aside from replacing the engine. I was told that I could take the car home while they reached out to Ford to see if they were willing to cooperate in taking care of the cost of repair, that the car was safe to drive and was only burning off a tiny bit of coolant when starting. A few weeks went by and one day I was stopped in traffic when my car got another warning on the dash that my engine oil was over temperature. When I was finally able to pull off the road safely, I opened my hood and found that my coolant reservoir was completely empty.

2019 Ford Fusion Titanium coolant infusion into cylinder #2. I Took the car to the dealer because the coolant reservoir was always low. I always had to add coolant in a weekly bases but I never notice any leaks. The dealer told me that since there was no check engine lights on it was something normal. I continued to add coolant every now and then. About six(6) months later, the engine stopped. My father came to help and after checking my car told me there was coolant mixing with the motor oil. He asked me if there was a check engine light on or if the car heated up at any moment. No, my car never heated up and there was never a check light on. He towed the car to Tropical Ford, Orlando Fl. The Ford dealer told me I need a new engine and the repair was gonna be $6,261.00 We researched the problem and found the 2014 - 2019 Ford Fusion vehicles equipped with 1.5L or 2.0L Ecoboost engines came with a defect in the engine block and that is why coolant was intruding into the engine cylinders. We found that this is well known issue on this but Ford never told us about it. There are hundreds of complains about this same issue; Coolant infusion into the engine cylinders due to a factory bad block. The Ford Company corrected the factory issue by making a new engine block for the same engine but they refuse to accept responsibility that the original block is in fact, defected. My question to them was; Why would Ford make a new block for the same engine if there was never a factory probl

I bought this vehicle in 2019 and one of the engines cylinders was crack and now I need a new engine and I heard that this a very common problem with this vehicle

The flywheel apparently broke and messed up the crankshaft as well as the front pump in the transmission. Which in turn caused the transmission to slip out of gear and kill while being operated on a busy interstate requiring a tow home and then to ford service for diagnostics. With repairs totaling in excess of $8000.

Not sure what system is causing it but my trunk keeps opening and it’s done it many while I was driving. I understand a lot of other Ford Fusion owners are having the same problem and I urge you to look into the problem as it can cause accidents and deaths.

Car has been blowing excessive smoke from the exhaust only on start up after car has been parked for a few hours. Ford acknowledged new engine was needed however a week after my car had been waiting for the engine ford said it didn't need an engine. Started after the first oil change at about 9000 miles car stalled immediately after I left the dealership from getting an oil change.

I had my flexplate fail twice within 12500 miles of each other. First break was in December of 2021 at 52xxx miles. The flexplate can fail and have multiple cracks in it causing it to rattle and break further on each start and drive, causing the possibility of it completely breaking while driving if someone does not verify what it is. It sounds like a knock in the motor and be mistaken as that if the flexplate is not looked at. I only caught the break cause I heard a slight ticking getting louder every couple of days. And when I went to the dealership to get it looked at it broke further and started making a louder tick/clank. I have talked to a dealer worker that has has the same issue come up (cracked flexplate) with his edge with the 2.0 motor. Along with other research I’ve done I see there are MANY fusions and edges with the 2.0 EcoBoost that have the same issue. So this is a wide spread issue. Ford knows of this issue but does not take responsibility for the issue if the vehicle is no longer under warranty.

Vehicle stalls after getting gas. This is due to the canister purge valve not working correctly. It’s a common problem amongst fusion owners.

Driving on highway in a thunderstorm; windshield wipers were on full out max. They did not go fast enough to clear the water from the windshield so I could see the road. After this incident, I went to Ford and told them about it. They inspected it and said the wipers worked as designed. When I told them that was inefficient and unacceptable and a safety hazard for a downpour, they told me to "pull over" if I get caught in a storm. That is unacceptable. It is not always safe to pull over. I should be able to see for at least a half second to tell if I am driving within my lane. I had to drive on the bumper of a truck to follow their lights. I had the 2018 Ford Fusion and the windshield wipers worked properly.

CAR SHUDDERS/SHAKES INTERMITTENTLY ON COLD STARTS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON MAY 3 AT 11AM. TAKEN TO DEALER ON MAY 3 AT 4PM. AFTER DEALER INSPECTION, ADVISED ON MAY 5 THAT COOLANT LEAK INTO CYLINDERS IS REQUIRING A NEW ENGINE AT 28,700 MILES.

I HAVE 2019 FORD FUSION WITH ONLY 6400 MILES. AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND TOOK THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY DENIED TO COVER AIRBAG MODULE REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. AIRBAG MODULE WAS BAD AND DEALERSHIP DENIED TO COVER BECAUSE I HAD SMALL DENT DAMAGED ON THE QUARTER PANEL WHEN I BOUGHT IT. CAR DRIVES FINE BUT HAS AIRBAG LIGHT ON DUE TO BAD MODULE FROM THE MANUFACTURE.

MY CAR HAS HAD ONGOING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SINCE DAY ONE. THEY HAVE TRIED VARIOUS REMEDIES TO NO AVAIL. NOW THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY REFUSE TO COVER THIS ONGOING ISSUE

COMING TO STOP AT A PARKING LOT AND ALL OF SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED (SEEM LIKED 90 MPH) ON IT'S OWN JUMPED THE CURB WENT UP ON THE LAWN BEFORE I COULD REACT AND APPLIED THE BRAKES! I WAS PROBABLY ALMOST STOPPED BEFORE THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED FOR NO REASON!

T O WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, THANK YOU FOR ASSISTING ME DURING THIS PROCESS. MY CAR I PURCHASED NEW AND I WOULD LIKE TO SAY A FEW MONTH INTO OWNING MY CAR IVE HAD SERVAL INCIDENCE WHERE MY CAR WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE I'M A RED LIGHT FOR AWHILE DUE TO TRAFFICS. MY CAR HAS AN ECO BUTTON WHERE I CAN TURN IT OFF AND ON SO IT DOESN'T 'SHUT DOWN' WHEN I COME TO A STOP. THE REASON I'M SO UPSET WITH THIS IS BECAUSE 2-3 TIMES IT'S HAPPENED TO I'VE HAD MY TODDLER WITH ME AND IN ORDER FOR ME TO GO (WHEN THE CAR SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY TURN ON ONCE I REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK), I HAVE TO TURN OFF MY CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON AND IT'S HAPPENED DURING TRAFFIC AND BUG INTERACTIONS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR AND MOST IMPORTANTLY I'M SCARED A CAR WILL HIT ME FROM BEHIND DO TO THIS ISSUE WITH MY SON IN THE CAR. I'VE ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE TO FORD AND WHEN I TAKE IT IN THEY SAID THEY CAN'T DETECT THE PROBLEM. THEY'VE CHANGED THE BATTERY THINKING IT WOULD HELP HIT IT DIDN'T. I'VE GIVEN THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO ASSIST ME AS MUCH AS THEY CAN BUT YET I FEEL LIKE NOTHINGS BEEN DONE.

THE SYSTEM BEGAN FAILING WHEN THE FIRST THE ALARM DOESN'T SET, THEN THE HORN DOESN'T WORK BUT THE VEHICLE DOES RUN

WAS AT COMPLETE STOP, HEARD A LOUD "POP" NOISE FROM MY CAR THAT SHOOK MY BREAK PEDAL. BREAK PEDAL HAS FELT "SQUISHY" AND GOES ALMOST TO THE FLOOR WHEN STOPPING.

ON MY 2019 FORD FUSION THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR MY FUEL SYSTEM. IT IS READING THAT I HAVE A FAULTY PURGE VALVE. THE CODE WAS P0456.

SIMILAR TO NHTSA ID# 11290551, I TOO EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION OF MY VEHICLE OVER THE SET SPEED ON THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEMS IN BOTH MEDIUM (35-45MPH) AND HIGHWAY (50-65MPH) SPEEDS. I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE, CURRENTLY UNDER 15K MILES. PERIODIC VISUAL INSPECTIONS BY OWNER, ALL VEHICLE MAINTENANCE PERFORMED BY DEALERSHIP AS PER OWNER'S MANUAL. WHILE I NEVER LET THE CAR TAKE OVER THE DRIVER, IT CONCERNS ME IF THIS HAPPENS WITH MY WIFE DRIVING IT AS SHE MAY NOT HAVE THE SAME THINKING THAT I DO. ASIDE OF THAT, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FEATURE IS INCONSISTENT IN DETECTING VEHICLES WHILE SWITCHING LANES OR IN FLAT SURFACED CURVES, REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER (HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES DURING CLEAR DAYS AND UNDER MODERATE RAIN). THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE SO IT RETURNS TO THE SET SPEED. WHILE THE FEATURE WORKS OK MOST OF THE TIME, THOSE INCONSISTENCIES CAN CAUSE SEVERE PROBLEMS ON HIGHWAY SPEEDS - WHICH IS THE PLACE THEY ARE MOST USED AT. ONCE AGAIN, WHILE I FEEL I AM ALWAYS IN CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE, I GET CONCERNED FOR MY WIFE. SHE DOES NOT DO HIGHWAYS OR DRIVES LONGER THAN A 10 MILES RADIUS TO A FEW KNOWN LOCATIONS BY HERSELF. BY THE FEW TIMES I EXPERIENCED THE REPORTED, I'VE CONSIDERED IF THE VEHICLE WITH THE CLAIMED ADDED SAFETY FEATURES WERE WORTH THE PURCHASE AND ARE TRULY READY FOR WIDE ADOPTION.
