NHTSA Complaint #10351513 — 2006 FORD FUSION

MY 2006 FORD FUSION SEL V6 STARTED VIOLENT JERKING WHILE DRIVING. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE I HAVE ALMOST REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE JERKING HAPPENED. MY HUSBAND THINKS IT IS THE TRANSMISSION BUT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT. IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE MANY OTHER OWNERS OUT THERE (DUE TO THE MASS FORUMS AND THE TSB'S) THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. FORD IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE PLENTY OF DOCUMENTATIONS THAT IT IS AN ONGOING SITUATION. IT OCCURS EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. I DON'T FEEL SELLING IT TO SOMEONE ELSE IS THE ETHICAL SOLUTION. FOR SHOULD BACK/STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT. NOT RUN FROM THE PROBLEM. PEOPLE COULD BE SERIOUSLY HURT, IN FACT, I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THERE AREN'T REPORTED INJURIES. *TR
