Since I bought the car in March of 2019 it has given me problems with starting. It seems the battery is always dead even when the battery is new and the mechanic tells me the battery is charged finally today a mechanic told me it may be the starter. Because when I try to start it most times it is delayed or sometimes it won't start and I need a jump . This car is only 2 years old. Why am I having problems with the starter ? is there a recall on this car?.

Initial ignition of the car results in engine stall out post abnormal ignition time. Fusion will display "power run active" then "press brake to start". This will repeat after another ignition attempt and re-show the same messages on the dashboard. After a third ignition attempt the engine does not stall out. The problem is not a sudden onset but initial symptoms of the issue is that the car will stall out after 10 seconds of driving. Initial re-ignition post stall results in normal function of the car without extra issue. However, this event becomes increasingly common over time until it simply stalls out immediately post ignition. Despite multiple trips to a Ford certified professional mechanic, no codes are given by the computer which renders diagnosis of the faulty part or cause of the issue near impossible. Problem may present itself as faulty alternator, battery, or starter. However, even after replacement of any possibly faulty aforementioned parts the problem still persists.

Battery, starter and flywheel. Flywheel missing teeth possibly after failed battery. Originally my car was jump started by aaa 01/2014 due to battery failure. Was advised to get battery replaced. Which was reluctantly replaced by Ford at 36,805 01/2014. Unfortunately, this may have triggered a noise that I ignored for a time, where when the car would start sometimes it would make a loud noise. It was not every start, but it did become increasingly pronounced. In may I finally went back to the dealer who said I had teeth missing from the starter and fly wheel and that it was my fault for trying to start the car while it was running (though my car has the start lockout feature). The dealer wanted over $1700 to replace flywheel and starter. Opened a case with Ford and they covered the majority of the repair, leaving me with about a $450 deductible. After the repair was approved, dealer re-classified the problem as the starter staying engaged which distorted the flywheel. I raise this case, because I think perhaps the failed battery could have been the cause, but further the replacement battery failed again in 6/25/2017, which I replaced again. On my 3rd battery. May be worth noting that my vehicle is equipped with integrated navigation system and display. Could battery failure also be the source of repeated fan blower motor issue?.

Since I took delivery of my vehicle, I have occasionally received warnings regarding a failure of the traction control and hill assist systems while starting the vehicle. This was reported to the dealership a couple of times, with "no issues found" reported by the dealership service department. After paying close attention to my starting procedures, I have been able to repeat the warnings while performing the following specific starting procedure. . . 1) remotely start the vehicle (factory installed remote starter), 2) insert the key and turn to the first position, 3) keep key in this position for 1-2 seconds, 4) turn the key to the run position. These steps will cause the warnings every time. By turning the car off and restarting, the warnings are gone, and there are no history of the warnings in the vehicle computer. I have shown this starting procedure to the dealership service department and have complained directly to Ford with no reply. I continue to drive my vehicle unsure if there is a valid issue or not.

While driving down the road, my engine lost power. Rpms went down, and the accelerator was not responsive. I pulled the car to the side of the road, and put it in park. The engine idled very roughly. I shut off the car, waited 5 seconds and attempted to restart. The engine did restart after some effort by the starter. I drove down the road, and the car behaved normally. This seemingly isolated incident increased in frequency in the following weeks. Sometimes up to 5 times a day. I took my car to an authorized Ford dealer, and the problem was diagnosed as a faulty throttle body. Cost of replacement is $355. I researched the problem online and noticed that the problem seems to be fairly common among 2010 Ford Fusion owners. The online complaints about Fusion throttle body problems were exactly the same as the symptoms I experienced. The danger lies in the fact that the car basically stalls without warning and must be restarted before normal driving can resume. I have experienced this problem at both highway and city speeds. A stalled engine in the wrong place at the wrong time (middle of an intersection, freeway, while passing, etc. ) could have disastrous effects.

My air bags are turned off and so far no dealer said they can fix the air bags after all these years. My passenger seat belt would not buckle and Ford refused to fix it unless I paid a 300. 00 price. I took it to bell tire and they put a new one in for much less. I don't feel I should have paid anything because it was a safety issue. I also had to put 5 batteries in my car because the would be totally dead. The last one even though it was under warranty I had to pay for. Year 2017. I told them to DC my automatic starter because they thought for several yrs. It might be that and it was. In the mean time I paid for an altanater I did not need. Paid out a lot of money to the dealer that was not necessary. I have all the bills for all the years. All started in 2010with the battery which I bought when the car was still under lease. I bought the car and to date the miles are just going to 36,000.
