I have a 2014 Ford Fusion SE 1.5L . Months ago i had drove it and it over heated and i put antifreeze and it ran right back up , the next day it wouldn’t start went to the shop got it fixed ran for a day then the next day it stopped again . Any suggestions of what’s going on.? They said i would have to replace the whole engine if so how would i know if i have the cylinder temp sensor or not . I see many cases of it so wanted to will Ford be covering for this defect

Had issues with Ford Fusion not shifting into a higher gear. Car would Rev up to over 4RPM and still wouldn’t shift up. (Automatic) Could’ve caused a crash had it happened driving on a highway. Took car to the mechanic and I just found out from the mechanic that it needs a new transmission! My car is mainly used for commuting and has about 150000 miles on it. I have looked up issues with this vehicle and this is a known issue! HELP! FORD should be recalling the bad transmission and fixing the problem!

The wheel lug nuts on this vehicle are faulty. When I purchased new tires the tire installer said these lug nuts are faulty and not safe.

Battery chronically drains when car is sitting for a day or more. This has been happening since we purchased the car in 2016. It seems as if all the components of the car aren't shutting off completely (even when we check carefully to make sure they are off) or that they are coming on later after the car is turned off. This means we never know when the car will die and leave us stranded somewhere. We've replaced the battery several times and the dealership can't seem to fix this ongoing problem. This is also a problem that many other people report as an issue online.

The car stalls randomly when running at low speeds / low rpms. Scenario: after being parked for extended period of time, like overnight. Drive few miles, 5 to 10 miles and stop at parking lot. Upon re-starting the car and driving slow on the parking lot, the car suddenly lose power and stalls. Need to put on park and crank for about 5 to 10 seconds to restart. Then runs fine. Couple of times was crossing a road from a parking lot and stalled right across the incoming traffic. No engine light. Took to mechanic which could not reproduce the problem.

Engine has failed and what I’ve been hearing and reading all over the internet it’s a common problem in 1.5 engines I need an entire new engine because the coolant was leaking into the motor

Lug Nuts outer casing were swelled or distorted, not allowing removal to change a flat tire. After talking with a local Ford dealership, that said they sometimes have to hammer on the socket (19mm) to remove lug nut. This cause a safety issue just to remove let alone get out of the socket. The tire could not be repaired, so I had all four replaced, after having the one replaced, to drive the car. With the lug nuts distorted / out of dimensional shape, the integrity of getting them properly locked (torqued) back down is the safety issue. How can you trust they are properly locked down? I looked this issue up, which is a know issue, yet no recall. How is one to know this is an issue? Thankfully I was not on the side of busy highway. It is unsafe to remove, let along reinstall. Trying to remove could cause the car to fall off the jack? For safety I had to order all new lug nuts, with different size sockets to remove the old, and use the designed 19mm to reinstall the new lug nuts. The original lug nuts are not safe to remove or properly torque back down. The risk is the lug nut is not properly torqued and comes loose.

2013: Purchased 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid SE. 2014: Transmission seal replaced by dealer after dashboard alert. After repair, car developed low-pitch whine. Dealer explained it was the battery charging. Nov 2021: Whine volume has increased. No dashboard alerts. Dealer says the transmission needs to be replaced. Dealer says transmission can fail at any time. I have stopped driving the vehicle because I don't want it to become disabled on the highway, possibly causing an accident.

[XXX] 11/2/21. I was driving mi kids to the movies on 10/31/21 when suddenly I made a right turn to enter the theater parking lot, and the left rear door open. My daughter was sitting there and tilt to the left while the door was open, she grabbed my seat to hold her self. She was with her seat belt on, and I was entering the parking lot at low speed, which I am very thankful. I already made an appointment with my local Ford dealer for them to fix the problem, but I really can't trust this vehicle anymore. That's a serious safety concern that the doors don't latch to securely close. This is a LEMON CAR and I don't feel safe. I will like to get help with getting this vehicle off my hands and from any other's persons possession, IT'S NOT SAFE! Now I just learned that there's more safety recalls on the vehicle besides the doors not latching. Please help me.
