Just got this Ford vehicle a couple months ago and for some reason my car wouldn't start. I ran a diagnostic and had numerous codes p0300, p0301, p0302, p0303, p0304, p0030, c0014, p0047, p0141, and a few others. I looked for loose wires, checked fuses, plugs etc. The only thing at this point I noticed was two cracked spark plugs, so I replaced all off them. After that the car started so I thought it was fixed. Closed the hood turned the car to off, then tried to start it again. It did not start. So I checked all the fluids and seen the antifreeze disappeared, I had previously filled it. I looked for any visible leaks, puddles, and checked for wet carpet and found nothing. I went and bought another large jug of antifreeze put it in and watched it all disappear before my eyes. I could not figure it out, but I got the car started and still continued to get massive error codes, white smoke, rough sound, etc. Then searched more and found it sounds like blown head gasket, I checked and the oil had a milky tint. This I then found was a recall for my vehicle, so I spoke with someone from Ford on March 20, 2021 and they said they needed to check if my local Ford dealership had the parts to get my car in or if they needed to order the parts. I was suppose to get a call back but have not heard anything. I have not been driving, I did use leak fix it seemed to stop the leak and clear the codes but my dash check engine light keeps flashing so I didn't want to cause further damage. The recall number I found was NHTSA id number: 10174400, my car is a 2015 Ford Fusion ecoboost 1. 5l, VIN number# [xxx], and my local Ford is in heath, ohio 43056 at mathews Ford. I am getting the impression this is going to be at my cost after contacting Ford again, now telling me that it will need diagnosed at Ford, and may be at my cost. Why doesn't the recall list under my VIN? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Ford Fusion transmission oil leaks from left side half shaft area. Had transmission work done at 30,000 from screwed up transmission. Was told seal was too small and Ford new and would replace if those affected brought in for repairs. Now at 70,000 miles, leak as listed above with trans slip as so many posted on internet and going through the same situation. Ford will not repair since they have not been informed that it is a recall item. How many do you need to get this fixed before it becomes a danger driving and trans slips when cold and have to keep filing trans fluid. I bought brand new and still in my possession. Car taken well care of in my possession.

I bought a 2008 Ford Fusion. I have under 100,000 miles and the oil pan came off and blew my motor. I am very disappointed and angry about this situation. I took very good care of the car. Got oil changes and checked the oil weekly. There was no oil leaks whatsoever. When I contacted Ford I was greeted with rudeness and a don't care attitude. Is this how you treat your customers on a daily basis? there was no warning or indication that the motor was gonna blow up. I was driving 50 mph when the car motor blew out. Luckily I wasn't hurt or anyone else. Please contact me that you received this information.

On Monday September 16, 2013 I began to hear knocking from my engine on my way home from work. When I arrived home, I checked the oil dipstick and it was dry. I put two quarts of oil in it and the knocking persisted. On Tuesday I took the vehicle in to a local mechanic to tell me what the knocking was. He checked the dipstick and it was again dry and told me I needed a new engine. I then had the vehicle towed to the Ford dealership where I purchased it. They told me the oil drain plug was only held in be three threads and that's why there was no oil in the car, thus causing the engine failure. At no time did any warning lights illuminate on the dashboard. The dealership doesn't want to cover the repair under my extended warranty because they say a "negligent repair" caused the engine failure. However, no one has an explanation as to why no warning lights ever alerted me that there may be a problem. The repair shop that changed the oil last says the oil was drained from the car quickly, and there was not a gradual leak because the "bottom of the vehicle is dry. " assuming this was vandalism, no warning lights ever illuminated in the car saying that the oil was low or empty, and the check engine light never illuminated either. I'm still trying to get the engine repair paid for.
