NHTSA Complaint #10544841 — 2011 FORD FUSION

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND I WAS HER PASSENGER ON MILLER PARK HIGHWAY ON THE 18TH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JERKS FORWARD ON US, IT STARTS SPUTTERING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO CHOKE OUT, MY WIFE THEN TRIED TO GET ON THE SHOULD WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE CARS ACCELERATOR WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT ANY RESPONSE FROM THE CAR. TRAFFIC WAS FLYING BY US AS THE CARS ENGINE BRAKE CONTINUED TO SLOW US WAY WAY DOWN. WE WERE ABLE TO USE THE BRAKES. MY WIFE FINALLY GOT OVER TO THE SIDE, TURNED ON HER HAZARDS AND TURN OFF THE CAR. WE BOTH SAT ON THE SIDE OFF ROADWAY AND I HAD TO CALM DOWN MY WIFE DUE TO THE FACT HAT SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WE TURNED ON THE CAR AND THE "WRENTCH" ALERT RE-SET ITSELF AND WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE. MY WIFE AND I USED TO FEEL SAFE IN OUR FORD FUSION, BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOW WE DON'T HAVE ANY SAFE FEELINGS AFTER EVERYTHING THAT OUR CAR HAS GONE THROUGH ( BLEW OUT ENGINE DUE TO FAILED BEARINGS, THE TRANS SLIPS ALL THE TIME ON US, ETC ETC ). WE BOTH TRUELY LOVED THIS CAR, BUT NOW......
