NHTSA Complaint #10552393 — 2010 FORD FUSION

NOV 14, 2013 - BURLESON, TX - POWER TRAIN I HAD ALMOST THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS THE PERSON WHO POSTED ON 11/14 FROM BURLESON, TX. WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR SEEMED TO GO INTO NEUTRAL AND STOPPED ACCELERATING. I PRESSED THE GAS, BUT IT DIDN'T HELP. I TURNED ON MY FLASHERS AND DID MANAGE TO PULL INTO A NEARBY HOTEL PARKING LOT. SHIFTING IT INTO MANUAL, 2ND GEAR, AS I WAS DOING THIS SEEMED TO PROVIDE A LITTLE POWER. I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND SAT FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, IT DROVE LIKE NORMAL, THEN REPEATED THE ISSUE AFTER I MADE ANOTHER STOP ON THE WAY HOME ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER. I HAVE SCHEDULED IT FOR SERVICE FOR MONDAY, 11/18 SO I DON'T YET HAVE THE DEALER DIAGNOSIS, BUT GIVEN THE NUMBER OF SIMILAR ISSUES I'M SEEING ON THIS SITE, I WANTED TO GET MY INCIDENT IN AS WELL AS IT APPEARS THAT THIS MAY BE A RECALL ISSUE, SO MY COMPLAINT VERY MUCH MIRRORS THE ONE FROM BURLESON, TX, WHERE HE OR SHE FOUND 10'S OF THOUSANDS OF 2010 FORD FUSION OWNERS FACING OR HAVING FACED THIS SAME ISSUE. *TR
