NHTSA Complaint #10510552 — 2010 FORD FUSION

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT APPROX 70 MPH AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN SHUTTERING OF THE ENGINE/CAR AND LOSS OF POWER. THE"WRENCH" LIGHT TURNED ON. I SEEMED AS THOUGH THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON BUT WHEN I PUSHED ON THE ACCELERATOR NOTHING HAPPENED. THIS HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF A 4 LANE FREEWAY. THANK GOD I WAS TRAVELING DOWN HILL SO I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, WAITED A MOMENT AND TRIED TO RESTART. IT STARTED BACK UP AND DROVE FOR ANOTHER MONTH OR TWO WHEN IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. SEEMS LIKE THIS IS HAPPENING TO QUITE A FEW PEOPLE WHO OWN FORD FUSIONS. I'VE TAKEN IT IN AND IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY, SAME AS MANY OTHER PEOPLES COMPLAINTS WITH THE EXACT SAME STORY. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *TR
