NHTSA Complaint #10876048 — 2016 FORD FUSION

ON (3) SEPARATE OCCASIONS NOW MY CAR HAS STALLED OUT WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET AND GIVEN ME THE "WRENCH" CHECK OWNERS MANUAL ALERT ON THE DISPLAY. AS I DO ALL I CAN TO GET OUT OF THE LINE OF TRAFFIC AND OFF THE THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE CAR SPUTTERS, SHAKES AND STALLS OUT. TURN OFF THE KEY, WAIT A FEW SECONDS, OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR (SO ALL ELECTRONICS ARE OFF) AND SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN IT STARTS AND IT RUNS FINE. SOME TIMES, IT STARTS AND SHAKES AND SPUTTERS AND STALLS. ON ALL OCCASIONS, I HAVE EVENTUALLY BEEN ABLE TO GET IT TO "LIMP" HOME. THE LAST TIME (3RD TIME) I CALLED FORD ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE SHOP TOLD ME THIS IS THE 5TH OR 6TH 2016 FORD CAR (FUSION, FIESTA OR FOCUS) THIS MONTH WITH THE SAME ISSUE. 2ND FUSION AND THE ONE PRIOR TO MINE HAD 400 MILES ON IT! THINKS IT'S EITHER THE THROTTLE BODY OR THE THROTTLE BODY POSITIONING SENSOR. HAS THROWN CODES P2111 AND P2112. (ONE MEANS FLAP IS OPEN, ONE MEANS FLAP IS CLOSED) IT'S BEEN 3 DAYS AND I HAVE JUST BEEN TOLD I'M LOOKING AT ANOTHER 6 AT A MINIMUM. (THIS IS NOT THE SHOP'S FAULT IN MY OPINION AS THEY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT NICE AND CONSIDERATE TO ME) DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DEAL IS BUT SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT.
