While driving veh flashes "stop slowly check charging system" then begins to slow down by itself or wont even move if you are already stopped/parked. This has happened while driving on the interstate barely having time to pull over and stop out of traffic before it cuts off!!! it also happened while waiting at a red light and would not move had to be towed home! this is very dangerous especially on highways and interstates that may not have a shoulder or median to pull over at that time due to crossing a bridge etc.

While driving between 40-50 mph the vehicle shows an error stating "stop safely now" and "check battery charging system. " complete loss of acceleration at this point, so going uphill is very dangerous. Stopping the car, turning it off and restarting the vehicle can manage 1-2 miles before the error happens again. Ford dealership said id was a control circuit overlay or harness, cost of repair is $400. 00. Dealership claims this is a regular wear item and not due to driver error.

2019 Ford Fusion Hybrid se. Vehicle experienced a “stop safely now” warning with hybrid system shutdown, occurring both while driving and while parked/idling, causing jerking symptoms. This puts driver and other roadway users at risk, as loss of power/propulsion can occur without warning while in motion. Vehicle also set a p0073 (ambient air temperature sensor circuit high) fault code. The ambient air temperature sensor was replaced (Ford part numbers au5z-12a647-b / fc4z-12a647-a) but the underlying issue has not been fully resolved and diagnostics are ongoing. Vehicle also had a prior transmission replacement (January 2023). Vehicle has also had extreme, unresolved electrical issues: fuses repeatedly burning out, lights burning out, two horns replaced due to failure, backup camera display turning blue/failing, and dashboard warning lights randomly illuminating. The dealership has confirmed electrical issues are occurring but has not been able to identify the root cause despite inspection. Issue has been confirmed/reproduced by a dealer. Vehicle and components are available for inspection upon request. Exact onset date of symptoms is unknown, but warning lamps and jerking preceded the “stop safely now” shutdown events. * problems have been ongoing since purchase of the vehicle in 2019. Ongoing still in 2016.

Sync in-dash control system is severely delayed or unresponsive. Entire system shuts of randomly, gps location is inaccurate, system switches from day to night mode causing the screen to be hard to see. Issues occur at all times.

I took my vehicle to spradley Ford dealership for service regarding recalls 16s42 and 18s24. The dealership reports resolving 16s42 by servicing the seat belt tensioners. The dealership refused to address recall 18s24 because I did not have the charging cable inside the vehicle. I spoke with service staff on 3 occasions prior to picking up my vehicle and at no time did they request or inform me to bring the cable to the dealership. The dealership made no effort to replace the cord, thermistor or trunk battery housing as required.

The rear view backup camera fails. I have taken this vehicle to multiple dealerships totaling at least a dozen times for repair. The dealer has repeatedly been unable to repair this problem.

Driving on interstate 77 in ohio traveling the speed limit of 70 mph, the power steering fault light came on and the car was almost impossible to steer. The advanc trac light came on and low tire pressure light came on. Luckily I got the car off the highway and called tow vehiche.

The blower motor resistor harness has too much power going into it causing several vehicles not only mine to have a melted wire and connector replaced several times and it keeps occurring definitely a fire hazard.

Takata recall-dropped my 2010 fusion off on Wednesday after 4 months waiting for the part to be in. Asked to have an oil change done while it was being worked on. I go to pick it up Saturday and drop off the rental only to find my vehicle with no power steering, power steering fault, service advance trac system. I recently herniated a disc in my back and do not possess the strength to turn the wheel, rendering the vehicle unsafe to drive without power steering. My fusion never left the service bay. I get a call Monday from sheehy Ford service, telling me that I need a new rack and pinion to the tune of $2400, due to the electronic steering being an enclosed unserviceable system. Sheehy refused to acknowledge that they caused this failure during the course of my oil change and recall replacement of the passenger side airbag. They quoted me $1049 for an after market rack and offered to pay for it if I could prove that it was something they did to cause the failure. After hours of speaking to the service manager and assistant manager they told me that they stopped paying for the rental when I did not drive my unsafe vehicle home. By Wednesday waiting for a return phone call about any other options and calling Ford because there was a recall for the power steering on 11s and 12s, as suggested by the service manager, I told them to go ahead an order the after market rack. Thursday they call to tell me its ready. As I run home to grab the keys for the rental, leaving it in front of my house with my phone, computer, and other items still inside, Ford had sent a tow truck to repossess the rental. County police being called, rental towed, cab to the dealer, pay the $1049, and end up getting charged over $300 by the rental company since Ford refused to pay while the power steering issue was being argued. Unsafe and absolutely appalling by sheehy and Ford.

According to Ford car needs hcu unit and ecu. Just had the car fully serviced and new brakes all around. Tires are new as well. Ford wants $3000 to replace the hcu and ecu and drain the brake fluid. I think I'm gonna have to scrap the car.

While driving in the passing lane on the highway on my way home from work I began to smell smoke. I initially thought it was someone else's brakes until I began to see smoke coming through the interior panels of my vehicles. Luckily, the vehicles near me noticed the smoke and slowed down so that I could get off the road. Once pulled over I went to the front of the car and felt the hood but it did not feel hot but when I looked up I noticed the smoke was coming form the trunk. I went to the back of the car, opened the trunk and noticed flames coming from the car battery compartment (not the hybrid battery). I tried to smother the fire with a sheet but was unsuccessful. I realized the flames were moving down the side toward the fuel tank and stepped away to call 911. Within minutes the fire spread through my trunk to the backseat of the vehicle and completely engulfed the vehicle.

The car has stopped charging and will not operate in hybrid mode. Ford and the dealer have the parts are back order for over 4 months. The dealer is stating that they have 4 other vehicles with the same exact issue. This seems to be an emerging failure point on these cars.
