| Service Brakes problems |
The vehicle wheels and steering wheel bounce and shake when brakes are applied, regardless of the speed level; this felt like I am losing control of the vehicle and as if the wheels, and components of suspension or brake system will collapse all of the sudden. No warning lights came up in the dashboard. The vehicle was inspected by the dealership (kearny mesa Ford service, 7303 clairemont mesa blvd, san diego, CA 92111) and they confirmed the problem, the problem still persisted after they performed checks and repairs, their response was "we are not sure what's causing the problem and we need more time to diagnose. ".
The contact owns a 2019 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start as intended. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed a misfire in cylinder #3. The vehicle was not repaired. The independent mechanic related the failure to Ford customer satisfaction program: 21n11. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the contact was referred to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 2,690.
Continually receiving "see manual" message while driving, will intermittently appear and disappear. At times, the plug-in battery will completely stop working while still charged (more frequent in colder weather). It always resets/removes the "see manual" warning upon next vehicle start. Engine shutters and pings when turning the car off and is rather intense and seems potentially damaging. When driving at low speeds and when changing speeds, engine will not shift correctly when accelerator is pressed, and then will suddenly engage and lurch forward. And when slowing down braking system is not consistent, often have to depress brake harder than normal. Hybrid battery will also stop working when "see manual" message is on. At times the check engine light will come on, code p0b24, checked by Ford dealer (norm reeves, cerritos, CA) on 12/21/23, 'hybrid battery a voltage unstable'. Known recall but they have no fix. Dealer says corporate office has to authorize any sort of loaner car or arrange for rental car, however website says "contact your local dealership directly" when I enter my info for the recall. Called Ford corporate on 1/15/24, their answer is "we have no fix for this" regarding both fixing the car and providing us with a working vehicle. They would not take down any of our contact information or give us any other outlet to contact.
Car gave error message of system shift fault car would not shift from park to drive and would automatically shift back into park. Issue could be a bushing or solenoid issue car has premature wear on rotors and needed to be replaced.
While driving to work on i35 the a red message popped up on the dash saying "stop safely now" and the engine/hybrid motor instantly completely died. Steering and breaking were almost impossible because I am not a strong person and I was nearly rear ended several times. I had no chance to get to the shoulder and was blocking the lane in the middle of traffic till I was able to get someone to tow it to a side street. Completely unacceptable and very dangerous for the car to die completely like this.
The electronic parking brake system malfunctioned and is available for inspection upon request. If it was to engage while driving, it can cause an accident risking my life including others on the road. The problem has been confirmed by an independent service center and was also inspected be the independent service center. There were two warning messages prior to the failure and periodically appeared and disappeared. It recurred in the last two days.
When placing my car in to park it doesn't actually go in to park. If you get out after it does this the car will roll. This is terrifying. It started to roll out my driveway after putting it in park. I have to put my emergency brake on so it doesn't roll. I have a video of the incident but I can not attach it.
Was at complete stop, heard a loud "pop" noise from my car that shook my break pedal. Break pedal has felt "squishy" and goes almost to the floor when stopping.
