NHTSA Complaint #10345906 — 2006 FORD FUSION

2006 FORD FUSION - NORMAL DRIVING UNTIL I HIT 59,500 MILES. TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP AFTER REACHING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND THE EMISSIONS LIGHT WOULD TURN ON. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON 5/14/10, AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. AFTER TRANSMISSION WAS REPAIRED, THE CAR WAS PUT ON DIAGNOSTICS AND NOW THE POWER MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT IN ON 5/14/2010 AND IT IS 7/28/10 AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE CAR. THEY ARE WAITING FOR THE PART WHICH THEY SAY WAS RECEIVED TODAY. AND BECAUSE I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FIRST, I GET THE PART FIRST. THERE IS ANOTHER 06 FUSION WITH THE SAME ISSUE, WAITING FOR THE SAME PART. WAS THE PART ON BACK ORDER FOR SO LONG BECAUSE FORD NEEDED TO REPLACE SO MANY OF THEM? MY GUESS IS YES. I WAS TOLD THE PART WOULD BE IN JULY 15 AND IT WAS JUST RECEIVED TODAY (7/28/10). *TR
