2014 Ford Fusion Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE ENGINE OVERHEATED AND COOLANT LEAKED ONTO THE GROUND. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CAPITOL FORD (919 CAPITOL EXPRESSWAY AUTO MALL, SAN JOSE, CA 95136, (408) 426-8298) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT COOLANT LEAKED INTO THE ENGINE, AND THE HEAD GASKET, CAMSHAFT AND TIMING BELT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THE CAM PHASERS MAY BE STICKING AND ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V209000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,571.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. AFTER THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK, IT CONTINUED TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PARKWAY FORD-LINCOLN OF LEXINGTON (98 NEW HIGHWAY 64 W, LEXINGTON, NC) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFT CABLE WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 102,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE REVERSING THE VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS, THE STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY; HOWEVER, THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. IN ADDITION, THE "TRANSMISSION NOT IN GEAR" WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LIBERTY FORD PARMA HEIGHTS (6600 PEARL RD, PARMA HEIGHTS, OH 44130, (440) 888-2600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BUSHING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,200.

WHILE IN MOTION, MY 2014 FORD FUSION ABRUPTLY STOPPED ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE DID NOT TURN OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FOR A FEW SECONDS (AROUND 20 SECONDS) AFTER DRIVING OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, AND AFTERWARDS IT STOPPED ACCELERATING. THIS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE ON THE ROAD AND COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. IT HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. AFTER GETTING TWO DIAGNOSES FROM A FORD DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THE ISSUE HAD TO DO WITH THE LOW SIDE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR. IT WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE IT. IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS THE FACT THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON BEFORE OR AFTER THE INCIDENT TRANSPIRED. IN OTHER WORDS, THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY SYSTEM GAVE NO INDICATION THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. THIS SAFETY DEFECT IS IN BREACH OF THE NATIONAL TRAFFIC AND MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ACT. A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT ABRUPTLY STOP ACCELERATING WHILE ON THE ROAD AS IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS CASUALTIES TO THE OWNER AND NEARBY VEHICLES. THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY SYSTEM/CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON IS INCREDIBLY SIGNIFICANT. THIS SAFETY DEFECT REPAIR SHOULD BE REIMBURSED TO OWNERS OF THIS FORD VEHICLE. *JS

PER FORD RECALL 18S20 7/18/2018, THE BUSHING THAT ATTACHES THE SHIFTER CABLE TO THE TRANSMISSION DETACHED FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEGRADED SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING THAT DETACHED FROM THE TRANSMISSION ALLOWED THE TRANSMISSION TO BE IN A GEAR STATE DIFFERENT THAN THE GEAR SHIFT POSITION SELECTED BY THE DRIVER. THE CONDITION ALLOWED THE DRIVER, ME, TO MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER TO 'PARK' AND REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY, WHILE THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT IN 'PARK', IN THIS CASE "NEUTRAL", WITH NO WARNING MESSAGE OR AUDIBLE CHIME. WHILE BRAKES OR THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT APPLIED, THIS CONDITION RESULTED IN UNINTENDED VEHICLE MOVEMENT, THE VEHICLE WAS FREE WHEELING. FORTUNATELY THIS CONDITION DID NOT RESULT IN AN INJURY OR CRASH. FORD CLAIMS THAT MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE, (XXXXX), IS NOT COVER BY FORD RECALL 18S20, AND THAT REPAIRS WILL NOT BE COVERED EVEN THOUGH THE FAILURE HAPPEN EXACTLY AS STATED IN THE RECALL LANGUAGE FOUND HERE HTTPS://MEDIA.FORD.COM/CONTENT/FORDMEDIA/FNA/US/EN/NEWS/2018/07/18/FORD-ISSUES-TWO-SAFETY-RECALLS-IN-NORTH-AMERICA.HTML AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE THE VEHICLE WAS BACKING OUT OF A FLAT RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY, FRONT WHEELS TURNING LEFT, MAKING THE TRANSIENT TO DRIVE FORWARD DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET (25MPH SPEED LIMIT). THE VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN "NEUTRAL", AND PUTTING THE SHIFT SELECTOR IN "PARK" DID NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. INSTEAD THE VEHICLE ROLLED FORWARD DOWN THE SLIGHT INCLINE OF THE STREET UNTIL STOPPED USING THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE THEN NEED TO BE HELD IN PLACE BY EITHER APPLYING THE BRAKES OR USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE IGNITION COULD BE TURNED OFF, AND STEERING LOCKED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN "NEUTRAL", ESSENTIALLY FREE WHEELING UNLESS USING THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE ENGINE COULD BE STARTED AND EMERGENCY BRAKE RELEASED WITHOUT INDICATION OR WARNING THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN "NEUTRAL". PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED SINCE ONE WEEK AGO SUNDAY. THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE CAR.

(CAR STILL STARTED) POWER STEERING SEEMED INHIBITED. THE 2ND TIME IT WOULDN'T START AT ALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SYNC SYSTEM. I DON'T KNOW IF THE CAR HAS A SHORT OR WHAT. FORD DEALERS ARE INUNDATED WITH WORK AND DON'T HAVE TIME TO LOOK AT THE CAR.

MY FUSION A/C CLUTCH BOLT CAME OUT AND THE CLUTCH WHEEL CAME OFF. I WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME AND IT ALL BOUNCED UNDER MY CAR. THE A/C DOES NOT WORK NOW. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE BECAUSE IT SHOULD NEVER HAVE COME LOOSE TO FALL OFF.

I DROVE TO THE POST OFFICE AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK BUT THE CAR DIDN'T SHIFT INTO PARK IT MADE IT FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL AND STUCK THERE.

A WEEK AGO IT POPPED OFF AGAIN AS I ATTEMPT TO SHIFT GEARS AND HAS POPPED OFF EVERYDAY, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, ALMOST EVERY TRIP I MAKE BUT THIS TIME THE SMALL CREAM PIECE THAT HELPS ENGAGE IT IS THERE, INTACT, AND NOT WORN AT ALL.

UPDATE TO NHTSA COMPLAINT # 11153163. DIAGNOSTIC ON VEHICLE HAS BEEN DONE BY AUTO NATION FORD IN SOUTH FORT WORTH TEXAS.
