While operating my vehicle from a stop to a rolling position, the transmission is not propelling the car forward like it should. I compare it to a manual transmission scenario where the clutch isn't released all the way, so the rpms rev-up, but the car moves forward a very slow pace. This has been going on for about 2 months now. Nothing seems to resolve the issue. This occurs everyday, regardless of engine temperature or weather.

Have yet to receive a notice of the takata airbag recall and now my light is flashing on while driving. I've had 2 diagnostics done on my car before I fixed the issue and after I replaced the abs sensor on my left front wheel and I'm still getting the same codes for my abs, service traction control and hill assist lights. I have had my brakes replaced thinking that was an issue because my pedal is depressing to the floor while in motion and feels like it won't stop when turning to park. What else am I to do?.

While decelerating, the rpm jumps up to 4 or 5 and the cars shifts hard. Does matter if I am going up an incline or or flat plain road. . . It happens.

My 2013 Ford Fusion titaniumtransmission went out at 80k. I was informed by the dealer that, "upon teardown found transmission case cracked and metal in transmission. " here is the letter describing the situation that I sent to the Ford dealer after many calls with Ford manufacture: I would really appreciate your assistance in dealing with my transmission repair, steering temporary locking, and check engine light issues with my 2013 Ford Fusion. On December 24, 2017, I started my car after taking my oldest son to get his haircut, when my Ford Fusion started to jerk, lose power, and steering locked when we attempted to drive away from the parking lot. I was really disappointed that my car, at such a young age, started to act up, but somewhat grateful it happened prior to leaving town on December 26th. My car has been at the dealership since December 26th, and I was finally informed of the hefty cost of the repairs this week (25 days later), for a new transmission. As you may understand, this is very discouraging because I only need nine more payments to pay off the car and don't understand why the transmission suddenly gives out and the steering temporarily locks before paying off the car. I'm perplexed by the denial from the Ford manufacture company to assist in this matter since this is a transmission product issue. Please explain, because I have several concerns: is this the typical shelf life of a 2013 Ford Fusion transmission? if not, then it would appear to be a manufacture defect. If so, then the transmission and product of this make and model is not of good quality. Is the damage from a cracked transmission or the gears are defaulting to 5th gear or both? we would really appreciate you looking into this matter and assist with paying the costs of the transmission malfunction. What other solutions or recommendations do you have available?.

I bought a 2013 Fusion used last year I have had the car die going 70mph on the freeway several times and I have had the door fly open goinv 70 mph on the freeway and then wont close . Last week my car wouldnt go under 80 mph white smoke barreling from the exaust with two days previous a low coolant warning coolant was added . Car smelt like diesel fuel burning . Went thru a tank of gas in 30 min and the car now sits at Ford since the 5th of August waiting for tech to look at it. I already know its is a situation that Ford needs to recall after reading all these complaint. I could have died and my kids im so upset.

While driving on the beltway, the car accelerated then started slow down. I merged off of the beltway and onto a ramp to get somewhere safe. At the ramp the car light of the air bag came on then, the car came to a stop, and all the lights came on. And the hood of the car was smoking. I lifted the hood and saw the fire under the engine. We moved away from the car and luckily a man in a work truck saw us and had a fire extinguisher and put the fire out. The car is with the dealer but, nothing has been completed at this time. The car has been with them since 5/3/17.

2013 Ford Fusion engine acceleration while driving. I was driving on the freeway at 65 mph with my husband and son. All of a sudden the car accelerated and would not stop. I pumped the breaks , when I realized that was not working I put my foot on the break all the way. The car finally started to slow down but would not completely and the engine was still in acceleration. When I was able to slow it down to a safe enough speed, I put the car in park and turned the engine off. We were able to get it to a dealership 2 miles away where it has been there since. The dealership is great, its Ford corporate that is the problem. This is a major safety recall that needs action right away. We have been without a car for over 2 weeks. The dealership and Ford corporate stated they have not seen anything like this. Ford corporate has walked through steps with the technicians to try and fix the issue. They have replaced many parts and failed at every attempt. They still do not know what is wrong and refuse to accommodate us in any way. I cant even get a return call from Ford corporate. Time for a lawyer. This is a major safety issue and needs to be addressed before someone loses their life driving this car.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Fusion. While attempting to accelerate from a stop sign, the engine stalled without warning. The failure was persistent. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the electronic throttle body failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Electronic throttle body malfunction, car was parked in a parking lot and after returning to my car I started it and put it into drive, as soon as I let of the brake and touched the gas peddle the car maxed out in rpm and the car accelerated on its own even after pushing on the brake resulting crashing into a light pole.

I purchased this vehicle new delivered to the dealership from another location with just under 200 miles on the odometer. I noticed my first issue when the motor would stall going at a low rate of speed 15-20mph through a parking lot at about 22,000 miles on the odometer and also would hesitate to start. I only assumed it was bad fuel being such a new vehicle. This happened periodicaly up untile the engine gave an over temprature coolant display killing all but idle power to the ingine making the car undrivable. Thus I had the car towed to the dealership at excactly January 3, 2016 with 64,056 on the odometer. I had then noticed recalls for this particular motor in Fords Fusions and escapes with this particular size engine. After the recalls repairs were completed for my vehicle I still experienced engine stalls, but less frequent throughout this period and rough idle at initial start of the engine more frequently as time passed. The over temprature coolant message came on again, at 87,000 give or take ( again towed to dealership so they will have reported milage). I was informed that numerous repairs had to be made and are not covered under any recalls although I feel this vehicle more than meets the criteria for numerous recalls. I have had this vehicle checked for coolant leaks from another certified shop and no hoses have been found to have any leaks.

The right passenger front door latch was replaced with the same defective latch part that has a recall, this door is intermittently sticking which is making me extremely nervous that it is going to fly open while traveling down the road with my toddler or someone else in the car, along with passengers on the road. I am in fear of being locked inside of the car as well, being that it doesn't have any key holes! the door has stuck approximately 5 times since the "repair" at fairwary Ford in burgaw, nc. Also when I place my car in reverse and press the gas pedal there is a delay sometimes before it starts to reverse, this can be fatal if someone is ever behind me!.

Fourth occurrence with this vehicle! driving home from work, approaching roundabout, decelerating from 40mph, vehicle lurched and lost power and began rapidly decelerating. Wrench/powertrain light, airbag light, and engine light all came on. Vehicle towed to dealership. This is their fifth attempt at repair.

While cruising at about 45mph the car suddenly decelerated, the orange wrench light came on, and the car would not accelerate. While idling, the engine was shaking abnormally. This is the third time this has occurred, once at 40mph cruising, and once at about 65mph accelerating. All three incidents have happened about 200 miles apart. All three times I was (barely) able to pull over and restart the vehicle. Each time the car took longer than usual to turn over. Previous to this, there were several incidents when downshifting from overdrive into a passing gear. When the car shifted down, the transmission would thump and shift abnormally hard. The orange wrench light would then come on. I could still accelerate but I would have the same "hard" shift every time I accelerated fast enough to for the automatic transmission to switch into a passing gear. When slowing down to a stop, the car would surge forward each time it down shifted. After a restart the problem was temporarily remedied, until I tried to accelerate while in overdrive again.

On August 02, 2013, my 2010 Ford Fusion 3. 0 while driving on DC metro area 495 highway I noticed that even I have pressing the gas pedal the vehicle started to stalled almost having a mayor accident. I turned off trying to figure out what happens and decided to turned on again and working like nothing happens for at lease two weeks when happens again. I check with the Ford to see if there are having a recalls on that and I was told that they are not receive to many complains on that to create a mayor recalls on that but lookin online I saw alot of complains. That make me believe that Ford motors company knows about the problems and because of the cost of repair and parts and the amounts of vehicle involve on the problems they do not wanted to fixed.

I was traveling at about 40mph and a message flashed on my gauge stating something to the effect engine lower temp. I continued to drive the car and message went away. I later found out that my car had been recalled for possible fire due to engine overheating. I assume that this message is the pre-cursor to what could be a possible fire. I took my car to the Ford dealership and I am awaiting a response from Ford on a possible fix. The car was only 1 week old. I have requested Ford to take the car back and get into a non-affected engine type.

While driving to work on the highway 65-mph the engine shuts off without warning, the instrumental panel starts acting up as if you are turning on and off the key. They found a lose wire to the instrumental cluster on the second time they replaced the instrumental cluster. It has been taken back six times and now the dashboard shuts down and I lose lights, signals, and other electronic features. I have lost power steering and brakes in between. They offered me an extended warranty??? it is a shame that a consumer who buys a car from a dealership has to go through the grinder just to get out of their lemon. I just want to get out of this vehicle.
