Check Engine Light On problems of the 2016 Ford Fusion

At approximately 125000 miles, the vehicle displayed the check engine light and was experiencing difficulty restarting after refueling. Local auto parts store code reader displayed etc p1450. Online research pointed to a faulty cannister purge valve. This fault and accompanying symptoms were outlined in recall # 18s32. This recall is not currently applicable to my VIN. Diagnosis performed by sanders Ford in swansboro, nc confirmed faulty purge valve.

My 2016 Ford Fusion 1. 5l eco boost engine with 62,000 miles is currently in the shop needing a new engine. One day I was driving on the highway and all of a sudden my car starts shaking when accelerating and loss of power to the wheels. Since I was on a highway I tried to get to the nearest repair facility, but after 3 miles my car was not drivable as the check engine light started flashing and my car had no power from the engine. The repair facility advised I have coolant in my cylinders due to designed flaw from Ford, Ford's factory bulletin 19-2139 dated Nov 21, 2019 advises to replace engine. Spoke with Ford customer relations representative and supervisor and they will not help since the power train warranty is 2,000 miles over. My extended warranty will not cover cost of repair due to Fords factory bulletin regarding this issue. Ford recalled the 2017 Ford escapes for the same issue but now I am facing a $7,000 engine replacement or $14,000 negative equity if I trade in. I need help.

Slow to start, when it did start the check engine light came on. While in park car would shake and I could hear a boiling noise. When driving it was slow to accelerate, when it did accelerate it would jump as if it was catching up with itself. Every 5 mins or so a notification would appear on the dashboard that said coolant temperate over heating. Took it directly to the Ford dealer and was told I needed a new engine, that there was so much coolant inside of the engine it wouldn't unplug.

At 55k miles the check engine light appeared. We immediately took the car to the dealer. We are told that there is a coolant intrusion in a cylinder and that the entire engine will need to be replaced. The vehicle warranty started June 26, 2015. The vehicle was checked into the dealer 6/30/2020, 4 days after the 5 year/60 mile warranty expired. Days expired, not milage. We are being told by the dealer and Ford customer service that nothing will be done to fix the car even though the issue is a known problem and the replacement engine that would be installed is completely redesigned due to the known defect.

At approximately 70000 miles the check engine light came on and the engine would run rough when started but would smooth out and operate fine. The check engine light went off after a few days and would repeat every week or so. At 73000 miles the check engine came on and the engine was misfiring. Took to the Ford dealer and was diagnosed as p0301 and p0316 cylinder 1 misfire. Pressure tested coolant system losing pressure. Tried to remove #1 sparkplug could not be removed. Diagnosed "most likely needs a long block because of spark threads and short block issues with these". Estimated cost $7000. The dealer filed a request with Ford for cost relief which, after a week, was denied. I called Ford customer relations and asked for help on escalating the issue and was told to have the dealer file an appeal which I have requested. Seems like a common problem with this engine given the complaints here and the comments from the dealer personnel.

While in motion (65 mph) the vehicles electronic throttle body failed, causing the vehicle to enter an emergency mode in which the rpms were fixed at approximately 1. 2k. The ability to accelerate was lost completely and the vehicle had to be coasted off of the highway. An immediate restart of the engine did not remedy the issue, but after leaving the vehicle off for approximately 5 minutes on the side of the highway the issue was resolved, allowing for full use of the vehicle. After the incident the check engine light remained illuminated and the vehicle was brought to the Ford dealership for service. It was discovered that the throttle body had "failed" and needed to be replaced. I know that Ford has had an issue on older year throttle bodies and that a recall was issued for those. I am hoping that these newer vehicles will be looked at, and if the issue is still prevalent the recall changed to include them.

Ford Fusion recall: driving on the way home from the store and my check engine light came on along with a wrench symbol and a note on my dash to see manual while I was making a right turn I to my apartment complex. I took it to auto zone and they started it was the throttle body and it needed to be replaced, I took it to Ford after where they said it was covered and to bring it in on the 6th of Feb to have it fix. But then was told after they confirmed it was the throttle body that it was not covered. I only had the car 2 years and its problem after problem which nothing is covered under the warranty that I'm paying for.

I was driving on the highway, suddenly the check engine light was on along with sudden lose of engine power. The car enter some kind of safe mode that can only drive under 25 mph. Steering wheel was very heavy. It returned to normal after several restart. Check engine light still on. Went to the dealer the next day. They told me it is caused by a faulty sensor of the throttle body.

Engine loses engine power when driving. Pressing the accelerator pedal does nothing. Must coast or brake until the car stops. Power steering, braking, and climate control systems remain functional; radio remains on; turn signals did not work. �trans not in park� message appears on the display. Event has occurred three times when driving at highway speeds. Cruise control was on and set during at least two times out of the three events. Car may be restarted after coming to a stop, shifting into park and turning key to off. Appears to �reset� to work correctly until the next unexpected event occurs. Check engine light does not come on. Chime occurs after the loss of engine power. The car does not shake during or before event. Have not experienced any harsh or delayed shifting when starting from stop or after slowing and trying to accelerate. Three identical instances have occurred since driving this car. In one of the three instances, the key was bumped with a knee. Present milage is about 48000. Car was obtained in 12/2016. Local Ford dealer states that there are no recalls or services outstanding for this vehicle; did not know of any reported problems like this. On may 15, 2018 wes myers at bob sight Ford in lee's summit, missouri checked two other Fusions and noted that this same problem will occur if the key is barely rotated back - not so much as to think it should turn off the engine. As such, he did not find anything �wrong� since other vehicles exhibit the same problem; replacing the ignition switch with another that has the same problem would not provide a fix. Also stated that unless the car was still under the bumper to bumper warranty, that Ford would not take any action. The vehicle leasing company (enterprise) has not issued any notices stating this is a known issue with the vehicle. Nhtsa 9/19/2016, blacklick, OH, is similar issue.

While driving at a steady 45 mph on a city street my Ford Fusion lost engine power. The tachometer dropped to less than 500rpm, the check engine warning light and the have dealer service vehicle light came on. Pumping the gas pedal did not have any effect on rpms. I was able to coast to a safe area. I turned off the engine and when I restarted the engine it was still idling under 500rpm and the gas pedal had no effect on engine speed. After the 3rd restart, I could get enough engine speed to return to my hotel but it ran very rough with the check engine light on. I took the car to a carmax dealer in henderson, nv. I purchased it from a different dealer in roseville, CA. They sent it to a Ford dealer in henderson. The dealer replace the throttle body - attaching the repair invoice. I have noticed that this seems to be a common complaint online and that Ford somehow stopped north carolina from forcing them to issue a recall for this. If this had happened on the freeway in heavy traffic, there would have been one heck of an accident as the car rapidly slowed down without warning.

About 2 months after I purchased my 2016 Ford Fusion, the check engine light came on. But a couple days later, it went away. Now after the car sits over night and I awake in the morning to go to work, the car cuts off in the middle of traffic. It just goes completely dead. Its a good thing I havent been on the highway when that happens. The loses all power and acceleration. I then have to turn the switch off and wait a few minutes before I can then accelerate again. It has happened every morning for the past month.

This is an issue that has grown. I have documented proof that dates back to March 2016. This issue is an escalation of old problem that Ford refuses to acknowledge is an issue. I say this because there is no current recall on this issue. On 9/03/2016, I was driving on west georgia rd in simponville SC when all if a sudden the car jerked. Then a wrench and check engine light came on. I car started to lose power. Luckily, no car was trailing behind us or I'm sure it would have ran into the back of us. I say this because my foot was on the gas pedal so a car behind me would not have known to slow down til too late. I had just taken my car to the dealership the week befor for a second time due to car stalling right after a take off from a stop. Each time to be told nothing is wrong and the check engine light be turned off. Each time service person says bring it back if check engine light starts blinking or has a red dot because something then is wrong. After this incident I make a formal complaint to Ford. A manager calls me and I return her call. She asks about what happened and I tell her. I also tell her Ford had an issue. It's dangerous to drive a car that at anytime may lose acceleration while driving and cause an accident. I pray this doesn't happen to my family. I bought this car after researching it was just as good as a Toyota or Honda. She suggests I take it to a different dealership which I say I already have plans to. But she also say to have a technician ride with me to give pointers on how to drive to avoid the stalls. My experience was not a stall. It was a list of power while driving a car I purchased new less than a year ago. The 2nd dealership says it's a throttle body issue. It can be repaired but appointment not til 21st. Plus no loaner car. I have to work to live and par for that car. Ford needs a recall before there's a death.

My 18 year old daughter was driving the Fusion attempting to enter a highway ramp (route 22 in springfield NJ) to go dorm shopping for school. Upon entering the highway and accelerating on the ramp the vehicle stalled and became unresponsive to acceleration while pressing down in the pedal. The vehicle behind her began to accelerate; the Fusion then lost all power, the vehicle stuck her in the rear and pushed my daughters Fusion into an active lane with traffic traveling at 55mph and up. There was minor aesthetic damage to the Fusion. But that is not my concern in the least! the Fusion was stuck on an active high speed highway, my daughter could or should have easily been seriously injured or killed! this is the demarcation of a near miss! the check engine light came on with the ¿wrench icon¿ the vehicle had to be towed to a local dealer. Then there are 100¿s of articles pertaining to injuries and fatalities due faulty throttle bodies! Ford sales failed to mention that during the sale! I stopped at Ford service this morning to advise them of the details of the incident and the service advisor stated ¿ah yeah gotta be the throttle body¿ ¿happens all the time¿ ¿there was a bad batch¿! .

2016 Ford Fusion, 2. 5l engine, 10,500 miles. While driving straight on a two lane road, constant speed, 55mph, I experienced a sudden loss of power followed by the engine stalling. Although there were cars behind me I was able to pull over to the shoulder. The 'check engine' light turned on, I cycled the ignition and was able to drive the vehicle once again, although the check engine light was still on. After stopping for a brief period, I continued on my journey home engine light still on. When accelerating onto the expressway into rush hour traffic, I once again experienced a sudden loss of power followed by stalling of the engine. Fortunately I was able to get the car to the right shoulder. I recycled the ignition again and it occurred to me that I could drive the car without stalling only by pushing the throttle very lightly. I got the car home and took it to the dealer the next day using very light throttle application. Dealer verified issue and replaced the electronic throttle body: "verified stalling and check engine light. Ids retrieve code p2112, performed ppt dv, replaced throttle body per ppt. Cleared code and retest. System passed".

On (3) separate occasions now my car has stalled out while driving on a street and given me the "wrench" check owners manual alert on the display. As I do all I can to get out of the line of traffic and off the the side of the road, the car sputters, shakes and stalls out. Turn off the key, wait a few seconds, open and close the door (so all electronics are off) and sometimes the check engine light comes on when it starts and it runs fine. Some times, it starts and shakes and sputters and stalls. On all occasions, I have eventually been able to get it to "limp" home. The last time (3rd time) I called Ford roadside assistance and had it towed to the dealer. The shop told me this is the 5th or 6th 2016 Ford car (fusion, fiesta or focus) this month with the same issue. 2nd Fusion and the one prior to mine had 400 miles on it! thinks it's either the throttle body or the throttle body positioning sensor. Has thrown codes p2111 and p2112. (one means flap is open, one means flap is closed) it's been 3 days and I have just been told I'm looking at another 6 at a minimum. (this is not the shop's fault in my opinion as they have been nothing but nice and considerate to me) don't know what the deal is but someone is going to get seriously hurt.

Traveling on interstate 66 vehicle check engine light came one and message said see service manual. Lost of speed, no acceleration, and stalled out. Moved over on shoulder of interstate during rush hour. Towed to dealership. Throttle body had to be replaced. Car is just 6 months old bought it brand new. 10,000 miles on the car and this piece of equipment already goes out. See this has been an issue in the past. Need to reopen the investigation on getting rid of the electronic throttle body.
