2015 FORD FUSION Complaints

Engine warning display came on with "cylinder over temperature" immediately after temperature gauge went from normal (slightly under 1/2 way) to "Hot" immediately. Shut off engine - opened hood, coolant was noticed on passenger side just below coolant bottle. After waiting a little bit the tempature on the gauge hadn't dropped any & the radiator was cool to the touch. The day before washer fluid was added, while there the other levels were checked after sitting all night, the coolant was showing within the marked operating zone. Ended up calling for a tow truck.

UNKNOWN: Left rear door latch is not working, door keeps open after trying to closed it. Safety issue is door opens by accident during driving!

I was driving down the road. And front wheels stopped working suddenly. It’s better that I was on streets. Otherwise I could have met with an accident. My mechanic told me that steering rack had gone. I never get any recall for that. I had driven 1400 miles till now.

My drivers side door would not latch due to what I assume is issue that was recalled on similar vehicles

I bought the 2015 ford fusion for my son as a graduation present as he headed off to college on his own. The car started misfiring upon cold start for about 5-10 seconds. Eventually the car started misfiring while driving. He frequently had to pull over on the side of the road while driving to make it to his destination. I had him take the car to a ford dealership to be inspected. To my surprise, Ford Parks of Wesley Chapel told me that the 2015 Ford Fusion 1.5L ecoboost has a known issue with coolant leaking into the engine causing misfiring and eventually engine failure. They offered no assistance in fixing the problem. They told me the cost to replace the engine was over 13,000.00.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing excessive coolant consumption, causing the low coolant pressure warning light to illuminate prematurely. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with coolant intrusion in the combustion. The contact was informed that the head gasket or the engine needed to be replaced immediately to prevent further issues. Additionally, the contact was informed that the failure was due to a faulty engine design. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that although the model year was affected, the vehicle was not covered. The failure mileage was approximately 91,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while reversing, the rear-view camera displayed a brief image, a blue image or a black image with the message " Rearview Camera Unavailable". The contact stated while reversing at an undisclosed speed, the failure recurred, causing the rear-end to strike a pole. The contact sustained a whiplash, and minor neck pain but did not seek medical assistance. The trunk of the vehicle sustained a dent. Upon looking up recall information on the Ford website, the contact became aware that the VIN was included in Customer Satisfaction Program Number: 25N17 (Rear-view Camera Replacement if Required after Dealer Evaluation). The dealer was contacted and scheduled a repair appointment; however, the trunk repair was not covered under the recall. The manufacturer was contacted and denied liability for collateral damage. The failure mileage was unknown.

I own a 2015 Ford Fusion SE. I bought it used when it only had 47,000 miles on it. Over the course of time since buying it in DEC 2022 until now, it has had low coolant that I have had to address but no visible leaks. Current mileage now is 87,100 and just recently the coolant was low again and the check engine light came on for DTC P0301 -Cylinder 1 misfiring. It has had rough start ups, rough idle, decreased acceleration, and poor fuel efficiency. I have found the problem to be Coolant Intrusion – Engine Defect Concern “Coolant intrusion” is a known engine design defect in which coolant leaks into the cylinders, leading to internal damage, misfires, and eventual engine failure. After researching it I found that many other people have had the very same issue with no help from Ford. This should be a recall as this is an internal issue with the short block and something that should have been disclosed before purchasing this model/engine. The only repair that will fix the core of the issue is replacing the entire short block which costs thousands of dollars, way more than the cost of the entire vehicle at this point. Without fixing the issue, the engine will fail. Again, this should be something Ford should pay to repair, not any customer who came into this blind.

While driving, the car’s acceleration started to slow down an no matter how much I pressed the gas, it wouldn’t go. I was only able to do 5 miles an hour. It was a loud noise like it was reving up, but wasn’t going anywhere. There was no warning lights. I did not have any issues previously nor had any repairs made. I took it to the auto repair shop the same day and they had confirmed it was the transmission.

I am reporting a serious and ongoing safety issue involving my 2015 Ford Fusion. The vehicle experiences intermittent power steering failure while driving. The steering assist will suddenly disengage and re-engage without warning, making the vehicle extremely difficult to control. This condition becomes even more dangerous in wet weather, where the vehicle is sometimes nearly undriveable. Additionally, I am now experiencing a popping noise in the steering wheel. This raises concern of a possible mechanical failure consistent with known recalls involving steering wheel bolt defects that could result in the steering wheel detaching. These issues are consistent with known recalls, including: - Power Steering Failure Recall (15V340000) - Steering Wheel Bolt Recall (18V167000 / 18S08) Despite these known safety defects, Ford has refused to repair the issue, stating that the recall has expired. This presents a serious safety hazard, including risk of loss of steering control, crash, injury, or death. I am requesting immediate investigation and enforcement of manufacturer responsibility for this safety-related defect.
