general problems of the 2015 Ford Fusion

The back up camera has been showing a black screen while the vehicle is in reverse. This has been happening with my vehicle for a few months. Safety of others put at risk because this happens while vehicle s in motion have not taken vehicle to dealership to have it inspected. My vehicle falls outside of scope of recall currently published no warning messages displayed.

One night my car was completely off. The key wasn’t in the ignition and I woke up in the middle of the night and my back brick lights were on. And the next day I couldn’t start my car. I’m not sure if it drained my battery and I had to buy a new battery.

Electrical system failure on multiple components. Upon start entertainment system (radio, nav, etc. ) is inoperable, a/c does not function, windows will not roll down. Has happened on multiple occasions.

Since vehicle was purchased in 2014, it has had electrical issue with starting. It has needed a jumpstart at least 50 times and was brought back to the dealer multiple times with no solve. The dealer advised we just need to drive it more to charge the battery. A few weeks ago, the car would not start or shift out of park. A jumpstart was attempted and but the car still would not start. When trying to start the car, the warning chimes were beeping rapidly and the following message cycled on the display: see manual, steering assist fault service required, service advancetrac, low engine oil pressure, engine coolant overtemperature, park brake malfunction service now. The car was towed to a Ford dealer. The dealer advised the battery, starter and alternator were fine. They said the car was fine and it then drove without issue for a couple weeks. A few weeks later while driving, it completely shut off and would not start in a turn lane. The headlights turned off and would not come on. The hazard lights were turned on but only worked on the mirrors, not the front or rear hazard lights. This was extremely dangerous as it was dark out and we were almost hit from behind. The police were called and blocked the vehicle for safety. The tow truck driver was unable to jumpstart the vehicle or get it out of park with a jumpstart power applied but all the displays were working normal so it was not an issue with the battery. The same warning messages that were displayed weeks earlier were displayed again after the car turned off: see manual, steering assist fault service required, service advancetrac, low engine oil pressure, engine coolant overtemperature, park brake malfunction service now. The vehicle was towed to the same Ford dealer that said there were no problems a few weeks ago and it is acting the same as the day the the car stopped working in the middle of the intersection. This could happen on a highway or anywhere and shut the car down without warning.

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.

2015 Ford Fusion se. The passenger side daytime running light bulb was out around 1 November, 2019. The Ford dealer replaced it on 11/14/2019 and offered to replace the driver side light at the same time, because it is expensive to take the front bumper off to do the job ($210 labor plus $35 for the light and $29 for add'l shop supplies. ). He indicated that the driver side bulb would probably burn out soon. I denied the change; I thought it was a ripoff. Turns out he was right but why does the light burn out at all. The passenger side bulb was out less than 5 years after I bought it. Seems they could design a light that would last forever, no? I realize these are the daytime running lights and they are on whenever the car is on if you use the right setting, but it seems they designed in obsolescence,.

In August 2019 I reported to Ford that the brake lights were staying on all the time even when the car was shut off. I was still able to drive my car (Ford Fusion hybrid 2015) to the Ford dealer ship in sarasota. I was told they have to keep the car because it's a danger and not legal to drive with that kind of defect of my brake lights. I had to pay $ 1115. 24 for the repair of the car . Ford had to replace the brake pedal assembly. My car was in the shop for a month. They also replaced the steering wheel bolt which was a recall 18s08. In my opinion I paid for a repair that is now a recall. Will I be able to get my money back and a compensation for not having a car for 1 month provided we are talking here about the same issue?.
