2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON N THE CAR KINDA JUST GOT STUCK IN MOTION SOMEONE ALMOST SLAMMED IN THE BACK OF ME IT JERKED WON'T KEEP GEARS AFTER I TOOK IT TO THEM THEY SAID THEY WON'T FIX IT AND MADE IT WORSE AND THERE ARE RECALLS ON ALL THE STUFF THAT'S GOING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND THEY MISDIAGNOSED WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT I WILL N EVER PURCHASE FROM FORD AGAIN! *TR

WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AT 43,000 MILES A CHECK FUEL FILL INLET WARNING APPEARED. I MAIN TENDED THE INLET SYSTEM AND THE WARNING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD DISAPPEAR. AS TIME WENT ON I NOTICED THAT WHEN I WOULD MERGE ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY, MY CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE. I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE TO DEATH AND CAUSING OTHERS INJURIES BECAUSE OF THIS. I HAD THE THROTTLE BODY CHECKED AFTER THE RECALL AND THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE THROTTLE WASN'T THE ISSUE. A P0456 APPEARED AND THAT MEANS A SMALL EVAPORATE LEAK. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP IF THEY PERFORMED A SMOKE TEST AND HE SAID NO. AFTER PAYING 90$ FOR A DIAGNOSTIC FEE THAT WASN'T PERFORMED ACCORDINGLY TO THE TAB BULLETIN, I BECAME VERY ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED WITH FORD. EVERY IME I SWITCH GEARS OR EVEN ACCELERATE MY CAR JERKS SO HARD THAT I HEAR WHAT IS MY ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION LOUDLY SHIFTING. THIS PAST WEEK MY CAR WON'T START. IT TAKES 15-20 SECONDS TO TURN ON. AFTER SOMEONE JUMPED THE VEHICLE WHEN I WAS STUCK AT WORK, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DISAPPEARED, MY SYNC AND VOICE FEATURED DISAPPEARED, AND NOW I CAN'T EVEN CHARGE MY PHONE! ALSO, THE AIR CONDITIONER QUIT WORKING AS WELL. I FEEL AS THOUGH ALL OF THE CARS FUNCTIONS ARE DELETING THEMSELVES FROM THE CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AND I CANNOT CONTINUE TO WORK BECAUSE OF IT. HOW CAN I PAY FOR AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR WHEN I CAN'T DRIVE TO MAKE THE MONEY? I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THE VEHICLE AND DO NOT FEEL FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS POORLY MANUFACTURED CAR. THEY NEED TO RECALL THE 2010 FORD FUSION BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR EVEN SOMETHING WORSE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ACCELERATOR SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING AND HAD TO PULL OVER IN HIGH SPEEDS WHEN MY VEHICLE COULD NOT ACCELERATE. WAS TOWED AND AUTOBODY SHOP FOUND THAT THE CAR WAS IN "LIMP MODE". ENGINE CODE P2111 THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (TAC) STUCK OPEN. DIAGNOSIS SHOWS AN INTERNAL FAULT WITH THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT. *TR

CAR STALLED ALL OF A SUDDEN TRAVELING 70 MPH IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE HIGHWAY. THE THROTTLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND I WAS FORCED TO ABRUPTLY PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE THE CAR SPUTTERED WITH THE WRENCH LIGHT ON THE DASH. I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT AWAY AND THE ENGINE STARTED PROPERLY. I DIAGNOSED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND GOT TWO CODES, P2111 AND P2112. THE THROTTLE BODY IS GETTING STUCK OPEN AND STUCK CLOSED CAUSING THE CAR TO GO INTO LIMP MODE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ANYONE TRAVELING ON A BUSY ROAD AND COULD DEFINITELY CAUSE INJURY IF SOMEONE IS UNABLE TO REACT TO THE SITUATION DUE TO THEIR CAR BEING INOPERABLE. *TR

AFTER LETTING THE CAR SIT OVER NIGHT, THE TRANSMISSION FLARED FOR THE FIRST FEW SHIFTS. THE CAR THEN BECOMES A BIT JERKY WHEN SHIFTING GEARS.. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND LOST POWER STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AN HOUR LATER AND RESUMED TO NORMAL. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 52,800.

WE HAVE HAD AN ABNORMAL FUEL SMELL AND LEAKAGE FROM THE GAS TANK AREA. WE HAVE MENTIONED THIS TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP ON A FEW OCCASIONS. WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS A NOTICE OF RECALL #13S04 BUT WHEN WE TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP WE WERE TOLD THIS WAS NOT FOR OUR BUT FOR A 2013. WHY ARE THEY NOT TAKING CARE OF THE SAME PROBLEM FOR THE EARLIER MODEL. WE HAVE NOW TAKEN OUR CAR IN FOR 2 OTHER RECALLS AND FIND THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND POSSIBLE LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY FUSION DOWN A 45 MPH LOCAL ROAD WHEN IT STARTED SHAKING AND THE ACCELERATOR STOPPED WORKING. I PULLED OVER THE SIDE OR THE ROAD, STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, AND REMOVED THE KEY. I WAITED A MINUTE THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE. WHEN I STARTED ACCELERATING THE CAR WAS JERKING. I GOT AROUND FIVE MILES AND THE ACCELERATOR STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. I REPEATED TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, WAITING, THEN STARTING BACK UP AND WITHIN THE MINUTE IT STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF TWO MORE TIMES. I MANAGED TO GET HOME AND CALL THE DEALERSHIP. I LET THE CAR SIT FOR AN HOUR THEN DROVE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WITH NO ISSUES. I HAVE YET TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM. BUT I SEE THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE FORD OWNERS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, GOING APPROXIMATELY 60MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN, A WRENCH SERVICE LIGHT POPPED ON THE DASH, AND I WAS UNABLE TO PRESS MY GAS PEDAL. I HAD THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, AND I HAD NO POWER. I JUST ROLLED TO A STOP.. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, AND WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON, THE PROBLEM WITH GONE. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN TWO DAYS LATER. PLEASE ISSUES A RECALL FOR THIS, AS I'VE READ THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS OF FUSION OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROAD WHEN THE POWER STEERING MAINTENANCE LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED BY THE AD TRACK MAINTENANCE ALERT. I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND TURNED OFF THE CAR FOR ABOUT 3 MIN. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON THE LIGHT CHANGED TO POWER STEERING MAINTENANCE NOW AND I NO LONGER HAD ANY POWER STEERING. I WAS NOT ABLE TO TO DRIVE MY CAR SO MY HUSBAND HAD TO PICK ME UP AND DRIVE IT HOME. I READ THAT THERE ARE MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS SYSTEM, BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE FOR RECALL. *TR
