NHTSA Complaint #10846198 — 2012 FORD FUSION

TRANSMISSION SHIFTING ERRATICALLY, COMPLETED FORD REFLASH OF TCM (TSB# 12-6-12) AND MADE THE TRANSMISSION FLARE AND GEAR PAUSE GO AWAY. HOWEVER NOW THE VEHICLE AFTER DRIVING IT A FEW HUNDRED MILES SHIFTS VERY HARD. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE FORWARD IN AN INCONSTANT MANNER (EXAMPLE - PUSHING ON THE GAS PEDAL THE SAME AMOUNT 2 DIFFERENT TIMES FROM A STOP RESULTED IN A JACK RABBIT START AND THE OTHER ACCELERATED MORE SMOOTHLY WITHOUT THE SUDDEN JOLT.) THE VEHICLE WILL DO THIS REPEATEDLY BUT ONLY IN LIGHT THROTTLE APPLICATIONS, 1/2 THROTTLE AND ABOVE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS PERFECT. THE 6F35 TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR ISSUES AS THE 2010-2016 MODEL FUSION / ESCAPE VEHICLES HAVE THESE ISSUES WHEN SEARCHING FOR COMMON ISSUES OR REMEDIES FOR THE ISSUES I'VE EXPERIENCED.
