Transmission Slip Out Of Gear problems of the 2011 Ford Fusion

8 different times while driving at various speeds my car has slipped out of gear and I had to try to steer to side of road. Stop. Start car again. Last weeks time, the 8th time, was on hwy 85 in atlanta traffic. I was accelerating around someone that was having a problem and it just wouldn't go anymore. I was so lucky to have a marta bus behind me that slowed. So I could stop. Then start again and take off. Otherwise it would've been a huge accident because someone would've hit me. I've reported this to my Ford dealrship each time. This last time he said Ford focus and fiesta were just recalled for same issues. Please look into the transmission on the Ford Fusion as well. The other times I was on two lane roads. Able to pull to side of road. It's very scary though for your car to just go into neutral and you not be able to go anywhere.

This is my second occurrence: I was driving at a level speed of about 45 with the flow of traffic (in-city road, speed limit 45). When I heard my car seem to shift out of gear, and start stalling and slowing down and the wrench icon on the dash was lit up. I was in the left lane of a four-lane street. I got to quickest upcoming shoulder, and turned my vehicle fully off and back on. This stopped my car from stalling and shaking. But I am starting to feel very unsafe in my vehicle because there is no warning when my car will stall out and I do a lot of highway traveling. This was the second time in a 2 week period that this has happened.

While driving on I-95 south approximately 65-70 mph in moderately heavy traffic, at exit 180, the car sounded like it dropped out of gear while accelerating. I was able to merge to the shoulder of the highway. The car continued coasting and the "wrench light" appeared. The car would not accelerate at all. When stopped, the car rattled and idled very hard and was shaking. The service engine light came on. I turned the car off and I waited a few minutes and cranked the car back and all was fine, wrench light and service engine light was off. This has happened 6 more times since July 8th 2013, yesterday it happened 4 times in the 1 hour, almost got slammed by two 18 wheeler trucks. This really should be a recall due to this type of situation can get people killed.

Pulled up to macdonalds, put in park, took orders from other people in auto. Got out of auto took another order from passangers, left running, went into macdonalds stood in line, when up to counter to order food, some yelled " that car is rolling backwards, it was my sisters 2011 Fusion, it was put in gear before we went into resturant it jumped out of gear and rolled back into the side of a white truck. Took the car to Ford and the person said it is was not possible for that to happen, but it did.

My sister was driving my 2011 Ford Fusion to go out of town , when getting back into town, she pulled into macdonalds, put shift in park. While sitting in car, we were taking food orders from passengers, one in front passenger side of car and one in back passenger side. We, my sister who was driving and I who own the car, got out of autombile , we went into macdonalds stood in line, when we got up to the counter to order, someone yelled " that car is rolling backwards" and the car rolled backwards into the side of a white truck, damanging the passenger side door on the truck, no damage on Ford Fusion. The car was running as to leave the air conditioner on because it was so hot out. I was in the resturant and not even near the Ford Fusion at the time of roll back. I have been driving for over 53 years and know when a car is in gear, this Ford Fusion jumped out of gear somehow, it was in gear. Even where it was parked was on a small incline. When taking the Ford Fusion to Ford dealers, I was told that it could'nt have jumped out of gear, it had to have not been in park. Now remember this car was running with the air on, didn't roll back when we were taking orders for food, and then we stood in line in the resturant befor the car rolled backwards. This was reported as an accident on my sister's insurance, how can this be , how do they know I wasn't going to drive my car the rest of the way home,we were only 1 mile from home. And besides the car didn't even roll back for aproxmontey 6 minutes. This has to be reported as so it doesn't happen to anyone else.
