THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS NEEDED TO STEER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT INITIALLY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DID NOT HAVE THE PROPER TOOLS TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE.

Headlights do not work. I have replaced the low beams bulbs 3 times since purchasing my car over three years ago and each time the lights only work for a brief period of time them seem to short out unexpectedly, for no reason whatsoever. The high beams have been replaced multiple times as well. I purchased the fluorescent bulbs for better night vision. The lights were bright for a short period them dimmed and are only as bright as they should be if they were on low beam. This is some sort of an electrical issue or something to do with a manufacturer’s defect. Since I purchased my vehicle almost 4 years ago, there has been an ongoing issue with the transmission or alternator. The car “jumps out of gear” when putting the vehicle into park or when shifting the vehicle into drive from park. There is also a constant loud “humming/vibration” sound that clicks on and off continuously once the car is initially crunk up. The passenger door is coming off due to the loosening of bolts I assume but I’m not certain. Nothing has happened to cause this issue. The power outlets in the vehicle get extremely hot at times and cause phone cords to heat up. This has caused my phone to be destroyed! The rear view camera is now blurry with lines going through it. This is only happening when the car is put into reverse and rear view camera is in use. The Bluetooth and media in the vehicle gets stuck on “Sync Line In” & at times will not change to any other setting. This seems to be an electronic issue as well. There have been MANY recalls on my vehicle and I have taken it to the Ford dealership for repair each time however, none of these issue have been resolved . I am a single mother who work’s full time and is a full time student. This is my only form of transportation. I should not have to worry rather or not my car is safe for my children and I.

I just bought a new Battery. And I keep getting no crank no start. Rear suspension keeps squeaking as if it's not lubricated.

I PURCHASE A 2015 FORD FUSION SE WITH 119,00 MILES GREAT CONDITION CAR... THE CAR WILL MOT START... I'VE TOWED THE CAR TO MECHANIC SHOPS WHERE THEY INFORMED ME THAT I NEED TO REPLACE MY ENGINE. IN DISBELIEF I TOLD THE CAR TO ELDERLY FORD DEALERSHIP IN TROY, MI WHERE ARE THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY ENGINE BECAUSE COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE AND THE REPAIRS WILL COST MEV$7500 THEY'VE DONE TWO DIAGNOSTIC TEST WERE THEY FIND FAULT IN FORD! I NEED TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER

CAR WON'T CRANK. WARNING SIGN SAYS DIMMING LIGHTS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY DASH INFORMED ME THAT MY POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED, AND I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING WAS NO LONGER WORKING. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP WHO MISDIAGNOSED IT AS A BATTERY ISSUE. AFTER GETTING A NEW BATTERY THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE POWER STEERING WHICH WILL COST ME 3K.

THIS MORNING I GOT AN ENGINE COOLANT OVER HEAT MESSAGE AND MY CAR OVER HEATED IN A DRIVE LESS THAN 10 MINUTES IN COLD WEATHER. COOLANT WAS CHECKED A FEW DAYS AGO AND LEVELS WERE GOOD. I CHECKED AFTER GETTING THE MESSAGE AND COOLANT TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. THERE WAS NO VISIBLE LEAK WHERE I HAD PARKED. READING ON TO POSSIBLE PROBLEMS ONLINE, I READ THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS AND KNOWN ISSUE. MY VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED ON SCHEDULE AND THIS IS NOT NORMAL. 12-1-2020

WHILE DRIVING ON LOCAL ROAD LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND ABS SYSTEMS. SIMILAR TO RECENT RECALL OF OTHER FORD FUSIONS, BUT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL.

SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND MAKING A TURN THROUGH AN INTERSECTION. REPAIR REQUIRED IS COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF THE ELECTRONIC STEERING ASSEMBLY GEAR.

WHEN GETTING READY TO PARK THE CAR THE CAR SAYS IT'S IT NUETRAL BUT IT'S ACTUALLY I BELIEVE IN PARK. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK AND IT WAS MOVING BACKWARDS. I PUT THE PARKING BREAK ON THE CAR SO IT IS STATIONARY.

WELL TO START OF I HAVE A 2015 FORD FUSION THAT I BOUGHT IN 2014 AS A 2015 MODEL YEAR PRETTY MUCH IT'S BEEN A GOOD CAR SO FAR. IT HAS BEEN IN A COUPLE OF RECALLS SO FAR NOT SO BIG, BUT AT SAME TIME THEY HAVE TO BE TAKING CARE OF BY MY DEALER WERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY CONCERN NOW IS THAT IS LOOSING COOLANT FROM THE RESERVOIR WHEN IS ON PARK OVERNIGHT. I ALWAYS HAVE TO PUT COOLANT EVERY MORNING TO GET IT GOING OTHERWISE A WARNING LIGHT COMES OFF TO WARN ME ABOUT THE COOLANT BEING LOW. IT'S BEEN LIKE THAT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEK NOW AND IS KINDA TIRING GOING TO THE SAME STEP EVERY MORNING. I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE AND AFTER SEARCHING FOR AWHILE IT CAME UP THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS ME. I READ AN ARTICLE STATING THAT SOME ECOBOOST ENGINES ARE EXPERIENCING LOSS OF ANTIFREEZE AND SOME OF EM EXPERIENCING DIFFERENT KIND OF PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ECOBOOST ENGINES. HONESTLY I DON'T WANT TO GO TO THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE THEY ARE GOING. I'M WONDERING IF FORD IS GOING TO RECALL ALL THE ECOBOOST ENGINES THAT THEY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IT. MINE IS ALREADY GOING THROUGH THE SAME SYMPTOMS LIKE THE OTHER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. HOPEFULLY THE NHSTA STEPS UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT US BUYERS WITH A PROBLEMATIC VEHICLE THAT PEOPLE ARE HOPING TO KEEP IT FOR A LONGTIME TIME LIKE MY SELF. PRETTY MUCH MY WARRANTY EXPIRED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. HONESTLY I DON'T WANT TO PAY OUT OF POCKET IF MY VEHICLE STARTS TO MESSING UP AND TO BE HONEST I'M BEARLY SURVIVING OUT HERE AND WITH THIS PANDEMIC GOING ON IT'S VERY HARD TO COME UP WITH MONEY TO PAY YOUR BILLS AND NOW WITH THIS PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE IT'LL BE HARDER IF IT MESSES UP ON ME. IT'LL BE HARD TO COME UP WITH $7 THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE IN WHICH YOU RELY ON. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS MY CONCERNS THROUGH OUT THIS WEBSITE.

ENGINE WAS REPLACED IN SEP OF 2019 DUE TO COOLANT INTRUSION INTO ONE OF THE CYLINDERS. RICART FORD REPLACED IT DUE TO IT BEING COVERED BY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. NOW 14 MONTHS I GET MY FUSION BACK FROM AN OIL CHANGE TO FIND MY COOLANT COMPLETELY EMPTY. TOOK MY CAR BACK INTO FORD AND WAS TOLD I HAVE COOLANT INTRUSION AGAIN AND THAT MY ENGINE NEEDS REPLACED A SECOND TIME.

NA

THE RPMS REV AND SHIFTING HESITATES. WAS AT A STOP LIGHT, WENT TO DRIVE OFF FROM LIGHT AND IT STALLED IN INTERSECTION AS IT WAS STUCK IN GEAR AND FINALLY WENT INTO GEAR. IT SLOW, HARD SHIFTS AT USUAL TIMES. THE STALLING HAPPENS OUT OF THE BLUE. I DO NOT GO FAR BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT FROM IT STALLING IN GEAR! I'VE PUT SO MUCH MONEY ON TRANNY WORK, THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO NOT HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE AND HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BEING STRANDED.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND CAR OVERHEATS AND HAVE TO PULL OVER. THE CAR SHUTDOWN. A COOLANT PROBLEM NOT A BIG DEAL. TAKE IT IN AND HAVE A CODE SAYING IT IS MISFIRE #2 #3. REPLACE PLUGS DO A TUNE UP AND ASK ABOUT THE OVER HEATING PROBLEM. SAID WE WERE LOW ON ANTIFREEZE. STRANGE CAUSE WE HAD JUST TOPPED ALL FLUIDS WHEN WE CHANGED OIL.

TEST DRIVING AND ENGINE LIGHT COMES BACK ON. GETS IT BACK TO THE SHOP, STARTS LOOKING AROUND AND NOTICES THE COOLANT WHICH HE JUST FILLED IS DRY. AFTER FURTHER REVIEW THE COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE. THE DIAGNOSE IS THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

CAR IS AROUND 80,000 MILES AND HAS COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE CYLINDERS. PREVIOUSLY I HAD SOME MISFIRE CODES COMING THROUGH AND HAD THE SPARK PLUGS REPLACED. HOWEVER, THE CAR CONTINUED TO ROUGH IDLE AND THE ENGINE LIGHT PERIODICALLY WOULD COME BACK ON. A FEW DAYS AGO THE CAR INFORMED ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I REFILLED THE COOLANT TO THE CORRECT LEVEL AND CHECKED BACK THE NEXT DAY. THE COOLANT WAS BELOW THE MINIMUM LINE AGAIN SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS WHEN THEY DEALERSHIP TOLD ME ABOUT THE NEED FOR AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT

I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND WAS HIT HEAD ON AND THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. DAMAGE TO MY GRILL, HOOD, BUMPER, SIDE PANELS AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULDN'T OPEN. THE IMPACT SHOULD HAVE CAUSED MY AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. IT WAS A HARD ENOUGH IMPACT THAT IT ACTUALLY MOVED MY CAR. AIR BAGS DO NOT WORK.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR POWER STEERING WAS LOST WHILE TURNING. I ALMOST RAN INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE BUT WAS ABLE TO PULL MY STEERING WHEEL FAST ENOUGH EVEN THOUGH IT WAS VERY HARD TO TURN

I DROVE TO WORK NO PROBLEMS AND PARKED MY 2015 FUSION 2.0 ECOBOOST. WHEN I LEFT WORK I STARTED THE CAR AND A BILLOW OF WHITE SMOKE ROLLED OUT FROM THE EXHAUST WHEN I PULLED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT. IT QUICKLY DISSIPATED SO I DROVE DOWN THE ROAD A FEW MILES. I THEN GOT AN OVERHEATING WARNING ON THE DASH FOLLOWED BY A P1299 CODE. WHEN I PARKED THE CAR IT WAS IDLING ROUGH SO I TURNED IT OFF. I LET IT COOL DOWN AND NOTICED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS LOW SO I FILLED IT UP AND STARTED THE CAR, IT IDLED JUST FINE, AT FIRST, WITH LITTLE SMOKE THEN AFTER A FEW MOMENTS IT STARTED IDLING REALLY ROUGH. IT SUCKED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR DRY SO I FILLED IT UP AGAIN AND WENT INSIDE. WHEN I LOOKED AT IT HALF AN HOUR LATER THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY YET AGAIN. I THEN NOTICED A HUGE PUDDLE UNDER MY CAR WITH IT DRIPPING FROM THE MUFFLER IN THE MIDDLE. I DON'T KNOW THE PROBLEM. I ONLY HAVE 68K MILES.

LAST YEAR I TOOK MY FUSION IN FOR A COUPLE OF RECALLS AT GARY SMITH FORD. ONE OF THE TWO RECALLS REGARDED MY FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELT. IT WOULDN'T EXTEND OUT PROPERLY WITHOUT HAVING TO TAKE EXTRA MEASURES. I HAD A RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL REGARDING THIS ERROR AND IT WAS APPARENTLY NOTED THAT THE BELT WAS FIXED, BUT IT IS STILL NOT.

FUSE CONTINUES TO POP. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO A GROCERY STORE AND AFTER THE SHOPPING THE VEHICLE STARTED UP BRIEFLY THEN DIED. WE CHANGED THE FUSE AT THE PARKING LOT BUT IT POPPED THE FUSE AGAIN. WE ENDED UP HAVING IT TOWED. THE MECHANIC BELIEVES IT IS A FUEL PUMP ISSUE OR WIRING TO THE FUEL PUMP. WE ARE ON MILITARY ORDERS IN ITALY AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REACH FORD TO AUTHORIZE REPAIR SINCE WE DO HAVE A VALID EXTENDED WARRANTY. ITALIAN FORD DEALERS WILL NOT WORK ON AMERICAN SPEC CARS. WE HAVE A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO HAS ACCESS TO FORD BUT NEEDS THE AUTHORIZATION CODE IN ORDER TO START REPAIRS AND RECALLS. WE ARE GETTING THE RUN AROUND WITH FORD'S CUSTOMER SERVICE HOTLINES AND NO ONE SEEMS TO BE WILLING TO HELP. WE CANNOT SHIP THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE STATES WITH ACTIVE RECALLS ON IT. THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY BROKE DOWN CURRENTLY. WE ARE UPSET ON HOW FORD SUPPORTS ITS MILITARY!

WE HAVE NOW EXPERIENCED THE IDENTICAL DEFECT IN THE ENGINE IN THIS CAR TWO TIMES. COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING IT TO FAIL THE FIRST TIME AND NOW TRIGGERING CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS THAT THE DEALERSHIP STATES WILL REQUIRE THE ENGINE TO BE REPLACED AGAIN MEANING IT WILL BE THE THIRD ENGINE IN A 5 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 55000 MILES. THE FIRST ISSUE OCCURRED IN APRIL 2019. THE CAR ENGINE STOPPED WHILE BEING DRIVEN ON A SUBURBAN PARKWAY CREATING A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO PULL OUT OF TRAFFIC. IT NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THE ENGINE HAD BURNED OFF ALL THE COOLANT AND WHEN TESTED THE DEALERSHIP STATED COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THERE WERE 41,000 MILES ON THE CAR SO THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. SINCE THEN WE HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR 14,000 MILES IN 18 MONTHS ON THE NEW ENGINE THAT WAS REPLACED. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2020 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WE TOOK IT TO A AUTO PARTS STORE TO DOWNLOAD THE CODE FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. IT WAS P0300, AN ENGINE MISFIRE. WE TOOK TO A LOCAL SHOP TO CHECK IT OUT. HE DIAGNOSED THE SAME ISSUE. HE FOUND COOLANT IN CYLINDER 1 AND IT WAS 1/2 GALLON SHORT OF COOLANT. HE STATED THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE AND ENGINE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I SHARED IT HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED AND HE RECOMMENDED TAKING IT BACK TO DEALER THAT DID WORK. I DROVE IT TO DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THE SAME ISSUE WITH COOLANT IN THE ENGINE AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS TIME, IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY SO WE WILL HAVE TO BUY A NEW ENGINE FOR $5K. I HAVE REQUESTED FORD STAND BEHIND THE REPLACEMENT ENGINE WITH 14,000 MILES ON IT ONLY TO BE TOLD NO, THE NEW ENGINE ISN'T COVERED. THE CAR HAS 55,500 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY.

WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE (LESS THAN 5 MPH) I HEARD A CLANK/POP SOUND. WHEN I THEN APPLIED MY BRAKES THEY SUNK TO THE FLOOR AND BARELY STOPPED THE CAR. I HAD NO BRAKES. BRAKE FLUID THEN STARTED TO PUDDLE UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGERS SIDE WHEEL AND ON INSPECTION I NOTICED THE BRAKE FLUID DRIPPING FROM THE BRAKE LINE. I HAVE BEEN CURRENT WITH ALL MY CAR MAINTENANCE AND THERE WAS NEVER A MENTION OF ANY ISSUE WITH THE BREAK LINES. I HAD THIS CAR TOWED AND UPON INSPECTION BY A MECHANIC IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LINES WERE ALSO BULGING AND NEEDED REPLACING. THE FRONT BRAKE LINES GOING FROM THE CALIPER TO THE MAIN BRAKE LINE FITTING, ARE THE PARTS THAT WERE BAD. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES AND NOTES FROM THE MECHANIC. I HAVE A LINK I CAN SHARE AS WELL AS AN INVOICE IF NEEDED. I DID NOT SHARE CURRENTLY SINCE IT STATES NOT TO PUT PERSONAL INFORMATION ON HERE.

THE BACK DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT IS STUCK AND WILL NOT COME OUT. THE RETRACTOR KEEPS LOCKING UP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN A COLLISION. THE BREAKS WERE NOT EVER HIT HARD. IT WORKED FINE THE DAY BEFORE. THE NEXT MORNING, MY CHILD TRIED TO STRAP HERSELF UP AND IT WOULD NOT COME OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN THE DRIVE WAY. THE OTHER SEATBELTS WORK FINE.

2015 FORD FUSION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO ENGINE PROBLEMS. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT OT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *JS

CAR STARTED LEAKING COOLANT IN MAY, BUT NO VISIBLE SIGN OF LEAKING. CAR NEVER OVERHEATED AND KEPT COOLANT AT APPROPRIATE LEVEL. CAR WOULD OCCASIONALLY MISFIRE ON STARTUP AND WOULD HAVE CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE. ONE DAY CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN AND LEFT HIGHWAY. TOOK TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO COMBUSTION CHAMBER AND NEEDED A NEW ENGINE.

ENGINE COOLANT IS BEING CONSUMED BY THE ENGINE LEADING TO UNSAFE ENGINE OVERHEATING. THIS INTERNAL LEAK OCCURS DURING ALL DRIVING SITUATIONS.

I SENDING THIS MASSAGE BECAUSE I HAVE 2015 FORD FUSION SE. MY ISSUE IS WHEN I PUT MY CAR ON DRIVE MODE EVERY TIME I GO OUT IN TO TOWN. WHEN I'M ABOUT TO MAKE A STOP AND WHEN I TAKE OFF THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO JUMP BACK AND FOR ALMOST LIKE IS TRYING TO GET A GOOD SHIFT OR LIKE IS TRYING TO LOOK FOR FISRT GEAR. I DON'T KNOW IF FORD IS AWARE OF THIS SITUATION, BUT ITS GETTING KINDA ANNOYING THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS DOING THAT OR IF IS FAILING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT COULD IT BE MAYBE IT JUST NEEDS A SOFTWARE UPDATE OR MAYBE THE TRANSMISSION IS ABOUT TO GO OUT. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE READ THIS OR MAYBE THROUGH THIS WEBSITE THE COMPLAINT GETS TO FORD AND DUE SOMETHING ABOUT IT OR AT LEAST FIX THE PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME, BUT IF WE ALL COME TOGETHER MAYBE FORD COULD DO A RECALL OR FIX THE PROBLEM ON THIS TRANSMISSIONS BEFORE MINE GOES OUT AND I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.

MY 2015 FORD FUSION OVERHEATED WITHIN 10 MINUTES OF TURNING IT ON AND DRIVING ONTO THE FREEWAY. THE COOLANT HAD COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED AND THE CAR STOPPED MOVING. EVEN AFTER REFILLING THE COOLANT, NO CHANGE IN THERMOSTAT AND STILL NOT DRIVABLE. UPON GETTING IT TOWED AND GETTING IT DELIVERED TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN TOWN. IT TOOK 6 DAYS FOR THE TEAM TO DIAGNOSE IT NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. THE ENGINE ITSELF WAS EATING AWAY THE COOLANT AND WAS CONTAINING WATER/MOISTURE PRESSURE WITHIN THE ENGINE. NOT DRIVABLE, AND IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE.

I HAVE A 2015 FORD FUSION SE ECOBOOST CURRENTLY AROUND 76000 MILES. ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. THE SCAN HAD REPORTED A CYLINDER MISFIRE DUE FOR A SPARK PLUG CHANGE ALONG WITH A COIL CHANGE. MADE THE REPLACEMENTS DAY AFTER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS CORRECTED. A WEEK AGO IT OVERHEATED, COOLANT HAD DISAPPEARED, EVEN AFTER REFILLING THE COOLANT AT MAX THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T REGISTER THE COOLANT. NO MOVEMENT, NOT DRIVABLE. GOT IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. WAITED FOR ALMOST A WEEK FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE CAR, COME TO FIND OUT MY CAR IS IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THE COOLANT WAS BEING 'EATEN BY THE ENGINE' AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO FIND OUT WHERE IN THE ENGINE WAS THE LEAK. 'EXCESSIVE MOISTURE COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO COMBUST IF DRIVEN IN THIS CONDITION'. 'THE ENGINE WAS ABSORBING THE MOISTURE'. WHAT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW COULD THIS BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN FORD FUSION ECOBOOST MODELS AND NOT BE A MANUFACTURER RECALL. IF CAR WAS KEPT UP WITH MAINTENANCE, AND NEVER BROUGHT UP WHEN GETTING SERVICED. THERE'S NO WEAR AND TEAR DAMAGE IT'S A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. A CAR ENGINE SHOULD NOT LAST 5 YEARS FROM BEING BRAND NEW TO BASICALLY TOTALED CAR.. FORD SHOULD PROVIDE A RECALL . THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. EVEN AFTER CONTACTING FORD THEY MENTIONED NO COVERAGE AFTER 5 YEAR POWER TRAIN WARRANTY.

ENGINE STARTING ROUGH THEN EVENING OUT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD THAT COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO CYLINDER MAKING FOR INITIAL ROUGH IDLE. SERVICE BULLETIN SAYS TO REPLACE ENGINE. WE HAD THEM TEAR DOWN THE ENGINE TO CONFIRM IT WAS NOT A HEAD GASKET. RESULTS NEGATIVE. SO, HAD THE ENGINE REPLACED FOR $6800.00

I WAS IN THE DRIVE THRU OF A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT. WHEN I WENT TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT HAD NO PRESSURE BEHIND IT, AND I WAS JUST BARELY ABLE TO STOP THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. I WAS JUST BARELY ABLE TO STOP THE CAR USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. MY CAR THEN SHOWED A LOW BRAKE FLUID WARNING ON THE DASH. SO I OPENED THE HOOD AND SAW THAT THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. I HAD A FAMILY MEMBER COME PICK ME UP AND DRIVE ME HOME. I LATER CAME BACK WITH A BOTTLE OF BRAKE FLUID SO THAT I COULD TRY AND FIND THE LEAK. I DISCOVERED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT BRAKE LINE HAS BEEN BLOWN OPEN, AND WAS LEAKING BRAKE FLUID AT A SUBSTANTIAL RATE. MY CAR IS STILL SITTING IN THIS PARKING LOT , AND I AM CURRENTLY MAKING PLANS TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC.

ENGINE RAN ROUGH ON START UP, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK CAR TO FORD DEALER WHO TOLD ME COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO #3 CYLINDER AND ENGINE WOULD NEED REPLACED, MILEAGE ON CAR IS 64,441. IT LOOKS LIKE FORD HAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THIS 1.5 ENGINE AS MY PROBLEM IS NOT A ISOLATED PROBLEM.

TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH WITH SUDDEN IMMEDIATE INABILITY TO MAINTAIN SPEED (LOSS OF POWER/ACCELERATION). VEHICLE NOT RESPONSIVE TO ACCELERATION REQUEST UNTIL BELOW 45 MPH AND BEHAVES ERRATICALLY (JUST STOPS RESPONDING AND CAR SLOWS). NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND CAR OTHERWISE RUNS NORMALLY. ACCOMPANYING BEHAVIORS: BRAKE LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED (STUCK ON), EVEN WHEN NOT BRAKING AND ALSO WHEN CAR IS TURNED OFF AND KEY REMOVED. INTERMITTENTLY WHEN CAR IS STOPPED, MESSAGE "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE" IS SHOWN. TOOK CAR INTO FORD DEALERSHIP WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND "FOUND BRAKE SWITCH ENGAGEMENT BUSHING MISSING FROM BRAKE PEDAL" AND OFFERED TO REPLACE THE "BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY" AT A COST OF $1,062.35. FOUND SEVERAL FORUMS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME EXACT BEHAVIORS AND NOTING THAT THE OEM "BRAKE PEDAL STOP PAD" HAD BROKEN INTO PIECES. I ALSO REMEMBERED VACUUMING UP SOME PLASTIC PIECES FROM THE DRIVER FRONT FLOOR AREA NOT REALIZING WHERE THEY HAD COME FROM. THE "BRAKE PEDAL STOP PAD" ITSELF WHICH WOULD COST LESS THAN $5.00 IS NOT OFFERED BY FORD, SO PEOPLE ARE FINDING ALTERNATIVES WHICH MAY BE UNSAFE AND INCLUDE: "BRAKE PEDAL STOP PAD" NOT DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS VEHICLE, ZIP TIES, AND EVEN MAGNETS! OTHER FORD MODELS ARE AFFECTED AS WELL. SOME EXAMPLE FORUM LINKS BELOW. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

IN JUNE 2020, WHILE DRIVING AND BRAKING FOR STOP SIGNS AND TRAFFIC LIGHTS, BRAKE PEDAL STARTED TO GET A LITTLE MUSHY, THEN THE NEXT TIME I STEPPED ON BRAKE I HEARD/FELT A "POP" AND BRAKES WERE FAILING AND BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OFF AND A MECHANIC SAW THAT THE LEFT BRAKE LINE WAS BROKEN, UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND WOULD NEED REPLACING. TODAY AUG 19, 2020, AS I WAS STEPPING ON BRAKE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR, I HEARD THAT SAME "POP", MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT DOWN VERY FAST. I INSPECTED CAR AND FOUND BRAKE FLUID SPRAYED ALL OVER RIGHT FRONT WHEEL WELL AND BRAKE LINE WAS BROKEN, MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I AM VERY THANKFUL THIS DID NOT HAPPEN YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AND ALL OVER CITY STREETS AND UP AND DOWN HILLS. I HAVE REPAIR INVOICES FOR BOTH OCCURRENCES IN JUNE AND AUG, BUT AM UNABLE TO SCAN AND ATTACH AT THIS TIME.

SOMETIMES HALFWAY OR COMPLETELY MY BACK UP CAMERA WILL GO BLACK AND LEAVE AND ERROR MESSAGE. THIS IS EVERYTIME I BACK UP, HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE AUGUST 2020.
