2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

THIS HAS HAPPENED SPORADICALLY SINCE JULY 2015. THERE'S NO WARNING, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. YOU'RE DRIVING THE CAR AND ALL THE SUDDEN THE POWER TO THE ENGINE IS CUT. IT MAINTAINS A VERY ROUGH IDLE AS YOU ATTEMPT TO MANEUVER TO A SHOULDER IN TRAFFIC AND ONCE STOPPED THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY. WHEN THIS ISSUE OCCURS THE "WRENCH" ON THE DASH ELECTRONICS ILLUMINATES. ONCE YOU SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART THE CAR, IT SOMETIMES RUNS FINE FOR A WHILE, OTHER TIMES THIS ISSUE OCCURS AGAIN. WE'VE HAD THE CAR INTO THE SHOP TWICE, BUT BECAUSE THERE'S NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SOURCING THE PROBLEM IS INCREDIBLY HARD. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY IF IT OCCURS ON THE INTERSTATE OR OTHER CONGESTED AREAS. FORD NEEDS TO BE HELD LIABLE FOR SUCH AND SHOULD ISSUE A MANDATORY RECALL. I ATTACHED A PICTURE OF NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE AND SOME SAY IT'S THE THROTTLE BODIES WHICH HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR A LITTLE BIT, BUT ONE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO HAVE THIS OCCUR BEFORE GETTING IT FIXED.

WHILE STOPPED AT RED LIGHT AND STOP SIGNS ATTEMPTING TO TURN, THE VEHICLE WOULD REV ITSELF CORRESPONDING WITH A RAPID INCREASE/DECREASE IN RPM. UPON ACCELERATION THE CAR WOULD STUTTER AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF WHILE ALLOWING ME TO ENTER THE INTERSECTION RESULTING IN VERY CLOSE CALLS. THIS HAS BEEN RECURRING WITH MORE FREQUENCY.

I WAS AFFECTED BY THE THROTTLE BODY THING. I GOT IT FIXED AT JIM CLICK FORD IN TUCSON. I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING HEAVY ACCELERATION AND THROTTLE RESPONSE PROBLEMS SINCE. I HAD MY TRAMS FLUID LEAK FROM THE CAP. NO LEAKS IN ANY OF MY HOSES. MY RPMS STAY BETWEEN 1700-2700 REGARDLESS OF WHAT SPEED I'M GOING. I TOOK IT BACK TO JIM CLICK, EVEN THO SHOWING NO ERRORS. AND IT'S ALWAYS WHINING, MY ENGINE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S CAUSING THIS, BUT I DEFINITELY TAKE CARE OF MY CAR. AND FUSIONS BEEN HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS. AND PEOPLE TELL MY MY CAR MAKES REALLY LOUD NOISE WHEN TURNING. I'VE NEVER HEARD IT OR FELT IT, BUT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY MULTIPLE PEOPLE.

I OWN STATED FORD. DRIVING ON HIGHWAY REAR BRAKE FAILURE. TOWED TO REPAIR GARAGE AND REAR ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED. COST 380.00 DOLLARS. ONLY HAVE 32,000 MILES. WE WERE LUCKY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF ROAD. THIS A SAFETY HAZARD. TODAY MY FRIEND CALLED AND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. $360.00 REPAIRS. ROTORS AND PADS REPLACE. BOTH INCIDENT ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS..HAVE REPAIR BILL AND OLD PARTS. DON'T HAVE KNOWLEDGE TO SEND INFO AS REQUESTED.. I AM 90 YRS OLD. THANK YOU. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY 12 YEAR OLD SON DOWN THE POST ROAD IN ORANGE CT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE MALFUCTION INDICATOR LIGHT FOR TRACTION CONTROL ILLUMINATES AND THEN I GET A MESSAGE TO SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW. WITHOUT WARNING,IN AN INSTANT, I LOST THE ABILITY TO STEER MY CAR SMOOTHLY AND SAFELY AS THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY TIGHT. I DROVE ABOUT A MILE UNTIL I COULD PULL MY CAR OVER SAFELY AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS JUST SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS RESETTING MY CAR SO I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT, BUT BY THIS TIME, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS EVEN TIGHTER THAN BEFORE AND I COULD BARELY TURN THE WHEEL. I PRAYED AND DID MY BEST TO MANEUVER MY CAR SO THAT I WOULDN'T HIT ANYBODY ELSE, BUT IT WAS HARD TO EVEN DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE PATTERN. THE TURNS I HAD TO MAKE TO DRIVE TO MY HOME WERE EXTREMELY WIDE AND UNSAFE. I'M UPSET WITH THIS AS I'VE DONE MY HOME WORK AND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION REGARDING THIS SCENARIO BUT NOT AN ACTUAL RECALL. FORD ACKNOWLEDGES A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT APPERENTLY DOES NOTHING UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS. I LIVE IN A STATE THAT IS IN A RAINY SEASON AND SOON WINTER IF THIS HAD OF HAPPEN WITH SNOW ON THE GROUND...THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN BAD....VERY BAD.

AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, A WARNING SIGN POPPED UP ON MY DASH REQUESTING THAT I SERVICE POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY. IT WAS THEN THAT MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND I WAS UNABLE TO TURN, ALMOST HITTING CARS IN THE ROWS BEHIND ME. THANK GOD THAT I HAVE BACKUP SENSORS BECAUSE IT COULD HAVE BEEN NASTY! ANYWAYS, IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR ME TO STEER THROUGHOUT THE PARKING LOT AND FOR ME TO GET TO WHERE I NEEDED TO GO....UPDATED 12/10/15 *BF

DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING ON FM ROAD ON COMING VEHICLE ON WRONG SIDE STRUCK DAUGHTER CAR HEAD ON. DAUGHTERS CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE, SEAT BELTS LOCKED OR FROZE PASSENGER UNABLE TO UNLOCK SEAT BELT. DAUGHTER DIED PASSENGER RECEIVED BURNS TO HANDS.DAUGHTERS CAR WAS IN MOTION.

POWER STEERING IS DEFAULTED WHILE DRIVING. IT BECAME SO HARD TO TURN. THANKS GOD THERE IS NO CRASH. IT HAPPENED 3 DAYS AGO IN WINSTON SALEM NC AND I NOW PARKED THE VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY THINKING ABOUT WHERE TO FIND MONEY TO FIX IT

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR, AND WITH NO WARNING THE ORANGE WRENCH APPEARS AND LOSS OF ACCELERATION OCCURS. HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES TODAY AND COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT EACH TIME. THERE IS APPARENTLY A THROTTLE RECALL, BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY 2010 FORD FUSION. NOT SURE WHAT I NEED TO DO.
