NHTSA Complaint #10526351 — 2010 FORD FUSION

I WAS VERY WORRIED WHEN MY CAR APPEARED TO JUST TURN OFF AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN FROM THE INTERSTATE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE, BAD CONNECTION AND HOPED IT WOULD NEVER DO IT AGAIN. CAR DID START BACK UP WITH NO ISSUES, THAT DAY. UNFORTUNATELY, IT HAPPENED A LOT ON SATURDAY 7/20/13. I PARKED THE CAR AND NEVER DROVE IT SUNDAY. CALLED FORD FIRST THING MONDAY - 7/22/13 AND THEY WERE TOO BUSY TO HELP. I HAD TO TAKE MY CAR TO A NON DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY. I HAD PREVIOUSLY RESEARCHED AND WROTE DOWN THE CODES THAT WOULD POSSIBLY COME UP. AS THE OTHER COMPANY STATED THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, I THANKFULLY HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO COVER COST BUT I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS AROUND $1,000. FORD IS CHARGING ME MY DEDUCTIBLE FOR A KNOWN SAFELY ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED? WHY? WHEN? IM HOPING BY ADDING TO THE LIST WE CAN MAKE SURE THEY TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS BEFORE THEY ISSUE ARISES RATHER THAN AFTER WE ARE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I'VE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR 2 DAYS AND NO CONCERN OF FORD. I NEED A RELIABLE CAR, AS IM STILL PAYING FOR IT. ALL OF THE ISSUES ARE EXACTLY FOLLOWING THESE ARTICLES - HTTP://WWW.USATODAY.COM/STORY/MONEY/CARS/2013/02/25/PROBE-FORD-CARS-SUVS-STALLING/1945799/ AND HTTP://WWW.FOXNEWS.COM/LEISURE/2013/02/25/FEDS-PROBE-725000-LIMP-FORD-MERCURY-VEHICLES-FOR-FAULT/ I'VE HAD HORRIBLE SERVICE FROM FORD AND WOULD PREFER A NON PARTISAN COMPANY TO FIX BUT I AM FORCED TO GO BACK TO THEM TO TAKE CAR OF ISSUE. *TR
