NHTSA Complaint #10548179 — 2012 FORD FUSION

ON 10/9/2013 I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND THEN WHEN I PROCEEDED TO GO ON A GREEN LIGHT, MY CAR STALLED WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR LIGHTS ON MY DASH WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THERE WAS A CAR BEHIND ME THAT ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. WENT TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND IT DID NOT START RIGHT AWAY. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK WITH HAZARDS ON, IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, AND TRIED TO START THE CAR TWO MORE TIMES BEFORE THE CAR STARTED AGAIN. THE CAR HAS BEEN GIVING ME ISSUES WITH HESITATION AND VIBRATION FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FORD AND THEY HAVE CHECKED MY CAR 2 TIMES AND NEVER WAS ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. BEFORE I TOOK IT TO FORD THE CAR HAS STALLED ON 6/19/2013 PRIOR TO TAKING THE CAR TO THE LOCAL FORD SHOP. THEY SAID IT WAS THE PROGRAMMING AND THEY INSTALLED THE UPDATE FOR THE COMPUTER, BUT IT NEVER SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THE LAST TIME IT STALLED ON ME, MY HUSBAND, WHO IS AN ACURA TECHNICIAN, PULLED THE P2111 CODE OUT USING A POCKET CODE READER OUT OF FREEZE FRAME DATA. THERE WAS NO CODES STORED IN PCM 6 HRS AFTER THE INCIDENT. 2 DAYS LATER CHECKED FOR FREEZE FRAME DATA AGAIN AND THERE WAS NO FREEZE FRAME DATA. *TR
