2014 FORD FUSION Electrical System Problems

Check Engine light and Wrench light illuminated on the car Sunday. However, the car was at the dealer twice the same week before this happened. I pulled over because the vehicle was performing rough into a Lowes parking lot. I was within several hundred feet of a Ford dealer and drove it there. The vehicle smelled like smoke and noise from the rear of the vehicle. Service advisor Roxanne Detgen, t. no. 586-840-1086, at Dorian Ford, says that the car likely needs a new engine. She has contacted Ford motor company and then will contact me to authorize a teardown of the engine. The vehicle is a safety risk because it had sudden poor driving performance without the illumination of any lights, loss of power, and is a fire hazard. In fact, it was at the dealer twice the same week this happened and no lights were on.

I WAS DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY WITH MY KIDS. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCK UP MID DRIVING AND I COULDNT CONTROL THE WHEEL VERY DANGEROUS. ESPECIALLY HAPPENING ON THE EXPRESSWAY WITH MY CHILDREN ABOARD. WORST COULD HAVE HAPPEN BUT THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO DODGE AN CAR AN SLOW DOWN TO I STOP AN TURN ON HAZZER LIGHTS AND BREAK. I COULDNT TURN THE WHEEL AT ALL IT WAS VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE. IT WAS DISPLAYING MESSAGES PWER STEERING FAILURE AND ONE OTHER MESSAGE. I TRIED TURNING CAR OFF AND TURNING IT BACK ON BUT THAT DIDNT WORK. I HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP IN UNION CITY, GA. WHERE THEY FOUND OUT IT WAS THE PWERSTEERING SYSTEM THAT FAILED COSTING $2600 IN REPAIRS THAT I DIDNT HAVE AND I NEEDED MY CAR FOR WORK. SO I HAD TO COME UP WITH THE MONEY TO FIX AN REPAIR...

DASH LIGHT ON ' CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT ALWAYS ON, OCCASIONALLY GOES OUT WHEN STARTED, REPLACED ALTERNATOR WHICH WAS TESTED AT 14.3 CHARGING CAPACITY, CHANGED BATTERY, CHECKED SOLENOID- LIGHT REMAINS LIT. IF LEFT PARKED FOR MORE THAN THREE TO FIVE DAYS BATTERY DRAINS AND MUST BE CHARGED TO START CAR. ISSUE STARTED WHEN CAR WAS 2YEARS OLD 2016 - TO DATE. I HAVE PURCHASED 4 REPLACEMENT BATTERIES DUE TO CONTINUOUS BATTERY DRAIN CAUSING BATTERY FAILURE AROUND SIX MONTHS OF NEW BATTERY PURCHASES. NO SOLUTION TO DATE-

THE POWER WINDOWS ALL QUIT WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. AFTER A FEW WEEKS THE PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW STARTED WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A RECALL, AT THAT TIME I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE WINDOWS AS WELL AS THE LOCKS. THE ONLY WAY TO LOCK THE CAR WAS THE KEY FOB. NO CODES CAME UP WHEN PUT ON DIALYSIS. THE WINDOWS ALL WORKED AFTER THEY CHECKED, THEY SUGGESTED REPLACING THE MASTERWINDOW SWITCH. I DECLINED SINCE THE WINDOWS WORKED. SHORTLY AFTER MY CONTROL PANEL QUIT WORKING I CANNOT GET ANY HEAT OR AIR. THIS WIL PERIODICALLY WORK FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN QUIT. RECENTLY THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL COME ON, TIRE PRESSURES ARE PERFECT, AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR THE LIGHT GOES AWAY. EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE TIRE LIGHT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. TIRE PRESSURE HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. ALSO WHEN THE CONSOLE...

BACK UP CAMERA WOULD BE IN PARK. AS SONN AS I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE THE SCREEN WOULD GO BLACK OTHER TIMES IT WOULD GO IN AND OUT. SUNROOF SEAL IS LEAKING!!! ENGINE- I NOTICES WHEN IM AT THE STOP LIGHT TURNS GREEN MY VEHICLE TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO ACCELERATE, IT MAKES A HORRIBLE PULL STRAIGHTFORWARD MOTION. I NOTICES THE BODY PAINT CHIPS HORRIBLE IN ODD PLACES ON THE VEHICLE.

MY FUSION HAD INOPERABLE WIPERS AND TURN SIGNALS. THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS WOULD NOT WORK OR TOGGLE BETWEEN ANY INFORMATION. THE BLINKERS WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL. WIPERS WOULD ONLY WORK ON FULL SPEED. I HAD TO DRIVE FOR 20 MILES AND THEN EVERYTHING STARTED TO WORK AGAIN.

I'VE HAD MY CAR FOR 5 YEARS. 6 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED IT IT STARTED SHOWING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT GETS STUCK IN A GEAR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE , AND THEN IT FLINGS YOUR FORWARD. WHEN DRIVING UP A HILL IT WON'T GO OVER 30MPH. I TOOK IT IN OVER 2 YEARS AGO TO FORD AND WAS TOLD A TRANSMISSION RECALL FOR 2014 FORD FUSIONS WAS COMING. 2 YEARS LATER AND I'M BEING TOLD MY CAR DOESN'T QUALIFY BUT IS SHOWING ALL THE SIGNS THAT'S LISTED ON THE RECALL. JUST LAST WEEK MY CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. SINCE IT'S HAPPENED 3 TIMES. SINCE IT STARTED SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING A NEW ISSUE HAS PROGRESSED. MY CAR NOW JERKS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. IF I HAVE THE HEATER IN IT SMELLS LIKE SOMETHING IS BURNING. WE USED A...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS IN REVERSE, THE BACK OVER CAMERA BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED AND QUOTED OVER 700.00 TO REPAIR. COGSWELL MOTORS (1900 E MAIN ST, RUSSELLVILLE, AR 72801, (479) 968-2665) WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.*DT*JB*DT CONSUMER STATED HE DID HIT SOMETHING AND AT THE TIME VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER TOLD THE CONSUMER CAMMERA WAS FINE.*JB

BACK UP CAMERA MALFUNCTION. CAMERA DISPLAY WILL EITHER BE BLACK OR ZOOMED IN AND MIRRORED. HAS GOTTEN WORSE TO THE POINT THE CAMERA FAILS 99% OF THE TIME DUE TO THE HEIGHT OF THE REAR SEATS VISIBILITY IS GREATLY AFFECTED. HAPPENS WHEN PLACING CAR IN REVERSE.

APPEARLLY FORD MOTOR COMPANY KNEW ABOUT APIM SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONING THAT THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANT STARTING FROM 2014 FOR 5 YEARS AND DIDN'T NOTIFY TO THE CUSTOMERS SO AFTER YOUR WARRANTY IS GONE THE APIM SYSTEM WILL NO LONGER WORK AND BY LAW ALL MANUFACTURING NEED TO NOTIFY OF ANY ABNORMAL SITUATION ON YOUR VEHICLE. THEIR UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THIS DOES NOT FALL UNDER A SAFETY RECALL, BUT WITHOUT HAVING THE SPEAKERS OR SOUND WORKING YOU WILL NOT HEAR YOUR SEATBELT CHIME YOU WILL NOT HEAR YOUR MOTOR SENSES CHIME WHEN CROSSING A-LINE, YOU WILL NOT HEAR YOUR VEHICLES CHIME REVERSING NOR WILL YOU SEE YOUR CAMERA. I HAVE SEEN 1000THS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND FORD WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE "THEIR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED" THEY ARE REQUESTING $1000 TO FIX IT.HOPEFULLY THIS CAN BE ANNOUNCED FOR ANOTHER CUSTOMERS BEFORE THEIR WARRANTY EXPIRES AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO...

WHILE DRIVING ON A 2 LANE FLAT ROAD THE CAR STARTED LOSING POWER, WHEN I PRESS THE GAS HARDER THE CAR REALLY SPEEDED UP AND AFTER 2 BLOCKS IT STARTED LOSING POWER AGAIN, WITHIN THAT TIME THE "HILL START ASSIST" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT OFF LOSING POWER ON AND OFF FOR 5 MILES UNTIL I REACHED HOME. AFTER GETTING HOME I NOTICE THE BRAKE LIGHT DIDN'T GO OFF AFTER 2 HOURS, SO I HAD TO REMOVE BATTERY CABLE. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY REPAIRED BRAKE SWITCH BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WOULD STOP COMPLETELY.

THE SEAT BELT TIGHTENED UP. I NOTICED IT A FEW DAYS AGO. TODAY WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PUT THE SEAT BACK UP IT WOULDN'T BECAUSE THE SEAT BELT HAS NO SLACK TO LET IT COME UP. *TR

MY 2014 FORD FUSION HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE AC/HEATER JUST COME ON FULL BLAST SOMETIMES AND SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL.. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN I'M TRYING TO DRIVE IN BAD WEATHER. IT WONT EVEN DEFROST MY WINDOWS CORRECTLY.. MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND HAS DONE SO FOR 5 YEARS. FORD DEALERS HAVE NOT HELPED IN ANYWAY EVEN THOUGHT I HAVE A RECALL LETTER STATING THE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SHIFTER CABLE. IT SAID THAT MY CAR ISN'T GOING ALL THE WAY INTO GEAR/PARK AND IT COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR TRANSMISSION IN THE FUTURE AND IT HAS. I NEED HELP, PLEASE! THE SHIFTER CABLE BROKE COMPLETELY OFF AND FIDD HAD IT TOWED TO FIX IT. THEY FIXED IT IN LESS THEN 30MINS BUT DID NOT EVEN LOOK AT MY TRANSMISSION AFTER I TOLD THEM THAT MY CAR IS DRIVING HORRIBLE. IT HAS NO POWER HARDLY WHEN I PRESS...

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY FOOT ON BRAKES IN REVERSE. MY SISTER TOUCHED THE BACK OF THE CAR WITH HER HAND I HEARD A LOUD BEEEEEEEP THEN NEVER HEARD ANY SOUND AGAIN. NOT EVEN WHEN THE KEYS ARE LEFT IN THE IGNITION OR WHEN I'M UNBUCKLED. NOT A SINGLE SOUND. THEN 3 MONTHS LATER THE BRAKES WERE STALLING SO I GOT NEW ROTORS AND PADS AND THEY STILL STALL/ SHAKE. AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH NOW IT JUST DOESN'T START: I'VE GOOGLED ALL THESE PROBLEMS AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. FORD SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO KEEP SELLING THE SAME BROKEN CARS.

THE PROBLEM BEGAN IN FEBRUARY 2019 WHEN THE DESCRIBED CAR BEGAN TO STALL WHILE IN DRIVE, REVERSE AND/OR PARK. CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND THEN DIES STATING 'PRESS BRAKE TO START'. AFTER THE CAR IS PUT IN PARK, TURNED OFF AND BACK ON, CAR RESUMES NORMAL FUNCTION. AFTER FIRST TAKING IN THE CAR, THE TURBOCHARGER WAS FOUND TO BE THE CULPRIT. AFTER GETTING A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR DONE, THE PROBLEM RETURNED SHORTLY AFTER. TRAVELING ACROSS THE COUNTRY, THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN. AFTER RETURNING HOME AND HAVING MORE WORK DONE, THE PROBLEM CONTINUED TO HAPPEN. WHEN ON CITY ROADS, IN THE DRIVEWAY OR PARKING LOTS, THE STALLING CONTINUED. IN ONLY NINE MONTHS, THE NEW SPARK PLUGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND TWO ENGINE COILS HAD FAILED. THEN AFTER THIS WORK WAS COMPLETED, THE PROBLEM CONTINUED BUT NO ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. THEN IN DECEMBER 2019 THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, HE DISCOVERED THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE JUMP STARTED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE FAILURE REOCCURRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,251.

MY 2014 FORD FUSION SE HAS A RECALL ON IT FOR THE BRUSHING TRANSMISSION CABLE. THIS HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AND WHILE I AM DRIVING MY CAR THROWS ITSELF INTO NEUTRAL AND STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. SO FAR IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHILE TURNING A CORNER. I AM WORRIED ABOUT WRECKING MY CAR. THIS RECALL CAME OUT ON JULY 17TH, 2018 AND I BOUGHT MY CAR SEPTEMBER 21, 2018. SO I NEVER RECEIVED THE RECALL IN THE MAIL. I LOOKED UP RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE AND FOUND THIS. EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR, AM I STILL QUALIFIED FOR MY CAR TO GET FIXED WITH NO CHARGE TO ME?.

THE CAR WILL PULSATE AND SHAKE WHEN DRIVING, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE, LIKE THERE NO ACCELERATING IN THEN THE CAR CUT OFF, WHICH IS DANGER. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR LESS THEN A YEAR, I JUST PAYED CLOSE TO 1,000 BUCKS GETTING IT FIX FROM HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT MY WARRANTY DID NOT COVER. I HAD TO TAKE TO THE SHOP FOR THINGS THAT WAS OR RECALLED., IN NOW THIS. I THINK I WAS SELL A LEMON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RUSSELL BARNETT FORD OF TULLAHOMA LOCATED AT 1106 E CARROLL ST, TULLAHOMA, TN 37388, (931)455-4564, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 147,000.

DROVE A SHORT DISTANCE TO MEET A FRIEND. WHEN I CAME OUT TO GO HOME MY DASH LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK, DOOR CHIME AND SEAT PRESETS INOPERATIVE. ALSO DETERMINED ON THE WAY HOME THAT I HAD NO TURN SIGNALS, WINDOW CONTROLS, HIGH BEAMS OR RADIO. LOOKED ONLINE TO DISCOVER THAT FORDS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE LOW KEY BATTERY WARNING HAD BEEN ON ALL DAY PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT IS WINTER HERE AND WE ARE EXPECTING RAIN AND SNOW.

TURN SIGNALS SUDDENLY DID NOT FUNCTION/WIPERS ALSO NON -FUNCTION - STEERING WHEEL BUTTON CONTROLS - NON- FUNCTION DID SOME INTERNET RESEARCH AND SEVERAL HAD THE SAME ISSUE HAPPEN - SEVERAL FORD TECHS RESOLVED WITH CYCLING THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE VEHICLES- I DID THE SAME AND RESOLVED THE ISSUE AS WELL- THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND FELLOW FORD FUSION OWNERS NEED TO BE ALERTED THIS CAN HAPPEN SUDDENLY .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NEEDLE FOR THE RPM GAUGE FLUCTUATED; HOWEVER, THE ENGINE DID NOT REV UP. THE VEHICLE STALLED, BUT WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CAPITAL FORD OF CHARLOTTE (5411 N TRYON ST, CHARLOTTE, NC 28213, (844) 242-1515) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A PROGNOSIS FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

I PURCHASED MY FORD WHILE IT WAS STILL UNDER THE WARRANTY. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER BECAUSE I WAS LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING IN A CERTAIN GEAR AT A CERTAIN RPM AFTER THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A WIRING ISSUE WHICH I HAD THE DEALER FIX. BY THIS TIME I WAS CLOSE TO THE WARRANTY BEING UP. IT DIDNT FIX THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER INTERMITTENTLY OR STUTTERS. I GET P0352 CODES. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH IT BECAUSE IT IS INTERMITTENT BUT RECENTLY THE WIRING HARNESS MELTED ON AN IGNITION COIL. I HAVE REPLACED THE IGNITION COILS, THE PIG TAIL, THE SPARK PLUGS, CHANGED TRANSMISSION FLUID, RECHECKED ALL THE CABLES, AND ONCE THE DEALER REPROGRAMMED THE PCM. IT HAS TO BE THE TRANSMISSION BUT BECAUSE IT IS INTERMITTENT THE DEALER CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I ACTUALLY LOST POWER ONCE...

WHILE DRIVING ON A CALIFORNIA FREEWAY, A FOUL SULFUR SMELL FILLED UP THE CABIN WITH MY FAMILY INSIDE. LESS THAN 12 HOURS LATER, THE CAR BATTERY WAS DEAD AND THERE WAS LEAKED FLUID ALL OVER THE BATTERY. THE FORD MOTORCRAFT BATTERY HAS A 7/16 STICKER, AND WE ARE IN 9/18. THERE WAS NO CORROSION TO THE TERMINALS. THE SMELL THAT WAS RELEASED WAS HYDROGEN SULFIDE, VERY TOXIC AND DEADLY. IT IS ALSO FLAMMABLE. BECAUSE OF THE FAILED BATTERY, WE COULD NOT OPEN THE DOORS EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVER SIDE, WHICH WE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE USING THE HIDDEN KEY INSIDE THE FOB. THE OTHER DOORS AND WINDOWS ARE STILL NON-OPERATIONAL DUE TO A DEAD BATTERY. THIS LEADS ME TO MY MAIN CONCERN. IF THE BATTERY HAD CAUGHT ON FIRE DUE TO THE LEAKING ACID, MY FAMILY WOULD HAVE BEEN TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR BECAUSE THE POWER DOORS AND WINDOWS WOULD...

THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM SHUTS OFF AND STAYS OFF FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, MEANING THERE IS NO FUNCTIONING AIR CONDITIONING IN VEHICLE. IT'S BEEN OFF FOR ALMOST A WEEK NOW FOR ME. IT'S OFF WHEN IT'S STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. THE PROBLEM ISN'T WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ITSELF AS IT'LL SOMETIME COME ON AND REMAIN ON FOR A LONG DURATION. THE VOLUME KNOB ALSO BECOMES INOPERABLE. SOME DRIVERS OF THIS VEHICLE WEREN'T ABLE TO OPERATE THEIR WINDOWS AS WELL WHEN THE CLIMATE SYSTEM SHUT OFF SO I BELIEVE IT'S FAULTY WIRING SOMEWHERE. WE ALREADY KNOW WHY THIS IS DANGEROUS. WE CAN DIE OF HEAT EXHAUSTION ESPECIALLY SINCE I'M EXPERIENCING 100 DEGREE WEATHER RIGHT NOW. SECONDLY, WHEN IT RAINS, THE INTERIOR FOGS UP MAKING IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A FORD DEALERSHIP FOR THIS VERY ISSUE AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. HERE IS...

CAR HAS LIMITED POWER AND ACCELERATION. HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING. WHEN CLIMBING A HILL, TRANSMISSION WONT DOWNSHIFT PROPERLY. WHEN MANEUVERING "S" CURVES YOU CAN FEEL RESISTANCE IN THE STEERING. THERE IS A WRENCH LIGHT FOR THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM THAT CANT BE LOCATED.

I HAVE LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 40 MPH ON I-20, A 70MPH ROAD SYSTEM, CAR JOLTS OR JUMPS EVEN WITHOUT FOOT ON ACCELERATOR SO THAT I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR'S ACCELERATION. GAS GAUGE JUMPS WILDLY AND RANDOMLY FROM 22 MPG TO 99 MPG. BRAKE LIGHTS AND OTHER LIGHTING SYSTEMS REMAIN ON WHEN CAR IS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND HEADLIGHTS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE TURNED TO OFF POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, AFTER THE CAR IS IN PARK AND TURNED OFF, VEHICLE WILL JUMP FORWARD SEVERAL INCHES. SEVERAL ADDITIONAL INCONSISTENT LIGHT ISSUES WHEN CAR IS TURNED ON AND OFF. PASSENGER SEATBELT DOES NOT WORK. PROBLEMS BEGAN 2018 AND CONTINUE TO PRESENT DAY. LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP UNCONCERNED AND UNHELPFUL IN PRIORITIZING THE REPAIRS AFTER MULTIPLE CALLS AND DIRECT DISCUSSION WITH SERVICE MANAGER.

STEERING ASSIST FAULT LIGHT ON. POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET . TRACTION CONTROL AND HILL START FAULT LIGHT CAME. SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW.. IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE FROM THE FIRST WEEK... IT HAS A OIL LEAK.. THE CAR JERKS WHEN YOUR DRIVING BUT YET THEY SAY IT HAS TO GET USE TO MY DRIVING WELL SEPTEMBER WILL BE 5 YEARS IT SHOULD BE USE TO MY DRIVING.. YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR UP AND IT SAY YOU HAVE 300 MILES TO EMPTY DRIVE 2 MILES AND THEN IT SAYS 0 MILES TILL EMPTY.. THE RADIO AND THE AC COME ON BY THEIR SELF..THE CAR ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO CRANK, WENT AND GOT IT CHECKED, SAID THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH STARTER OR ALTERNATOR NEEDS TO BATTERY, OK GOT NEW BATTERY AND IT STILL DRAGS TO START... THIS IS THE WORSE CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED .. NOW YOU CAN BE DRIVING AND SOME MESSAGE COMES UP TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, I DON'T UNDERSTAND I THINK...

CAR RANDOMLY LOSES COMPLETE POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY WHEN STARTING FOR FIRST TIME (WHEN OFF FOR AWHILE) BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED AT STOP SIGN/LIGHT AND EVEN WHILE IN MOTION AT HIGH SPEED. THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENS (RELAY CHATTER). SUBSEQUENT RESTART WILL YIELD SAME RESULTS UNTIL FINALLY BECOMES STABLE AND I AM ABLE TO DRIVE. ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN DURING WARMER SUMMER MONTHS.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE FAN SPEED ON THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM WITHOUT MANIPULATION DECREASED TO A FAN SPEED OF ONE WHILE ON A CITY STREET.

DRIVING VEHICAL LOST POWER STEERING, DASH BOARD LIT UP,STEERING ASSIST FAULT,SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK,HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE,I NOW HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR TO WORK WITH NO POWER STEERING,DEALER SAID CANT LOOK AT IT TILL WENDSDAY,WARRANTY RAN OUT 2000ND MILES AGO.THIS CAR ONLY HAS 57000ND MILES ON IT:DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO:

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 35 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE STRENGTH TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART AND "POWER ASSIST FAULT" APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY THE CONTACT'S FATHER AND TAKEN TO TYLER FORD (2626 S SW LOOP 323, TYLER, TX 75701, (800) 788-7876). THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING DIAGNOSED AND MAY BE REPAIRED IF THE FAILURE WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK. ANYONE CAN OPEN MY DOOR AND BREAK INTO MY CAR, EVEN IF I HAPPEN TO BE IN THERE WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT.

WHEN MY RIGHT OR LEFT BLINKER IS ON, MY HEADLIGHTS FLICKER MAKING IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT.

THREE TIMES IN A THREE WEEK TIME FRAME THE CAR HAS FLASHED THE MESSAGE, TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, WHILE IN DRIVE AND THEN COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. TWICE I HAVE THAT ON THE HIGHWAY ONCE HEADING SOUTHBOUND ON 95,BANOTHER ON 128NORTH AND THE 3RD ON A SIDE STREET. I'VE BEEN ABLE TO SAFTLEY MAKE IT OVER TO EITHER BD LATE OR SIDE OF STREET . HOWEVER THE PROBLEM/ CONCERN HAS YET TO BE RECTIFIED WITH KELLY FORD BEVERLY WHERE I BOUGHT VEHICLE

EVERYTIME I PUT MY CAR IN GEAR, EITHER REVERSE OR DRIVE, THE GAS TANK DOOR WILL OPEN UP. THE GAS TANK BUTTON DOESN'T WORK AND NEITHER DOES THE EV BUTTON FOR PURE ELECTRIC DRIVE. THE ONLY WAY TO OPEN THE GAS TANK DOOR IS TO PUT THE CAR IN GEAR.

IN THE SUMMER OF LAST YEAR 2018 I WAS IN A STORE SHOPPING CAME OUT CRANKED MY CAR, THE AIR WOULD NOT COME ON AND THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT ROLL DOWN. IT WAS IN THE 90'S THAT DAY AND EVEN HOTTER INSIDE MY CAR! THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME IN THE PARKING LOT. IT HAD THIS PROBLEM THE REST OF THE SUMMER WHILE THE TEMPERATURES OUTSIDE WAS HOT. IT IS APRIL 2019 AND JUST A FEW DAYS AGO WE HAD A WARM DAY AROUND 75 DEGREES. I LEFT FOR WORK STOPPED AT THE END OF MY DRIVEWAY HAD THE CAR IN PARK AND LEFT MY DOOR OPEN WHILE I GOT THE MAIL. GOT BACK IN AND AGAIN DID NOT HAVE AIR AND COULD NOT ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS THE RADIO WILL NOT WORK EITHER. LAST YEAR DURING THE TIME THE AIR AND WINDOWS WERE...

CAR ACCELERATES AND DECELERATES SOMETIMES SPUTTERS BAD WHEN IN REVERSE. WRENCH ICON COMES ON. FORD REPLACED THE WIRE HARNESS AND PIGTAIL FOR AN EXPENSIVE COST TO ME BUT NOW ITS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. ALL THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING DOWN CITY STREETS.

I CURRENTLY HAVE A SAFETY RECALL FOR A FAILED THERMISTOR ON MY CHARGING CABLE FOR MY 2014 FORD FUSION ENERGI PLUGIN HYBRID. SAFETY RECALL STATES THAT THERE IS A CHANCE OF FIRE WHEN PLUGGING IN THE CAR TO MY HOME OUTLET USING THE CHARGING CABLE THAT COMES WITH THE VEHICLE. MY FORD DEALERSHIP IS AWARE AND I HAVE REACHED OUT MULTIPLE TIMES ABOUT A REPLACEMENT BUT THERE ARE NONE IN STOCK. SO AT THIS TIME I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE TO CHARGE MY VEHICLE UNTIL A NEW CHARGING CABLE THAT MEETS THE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS WITH NEW THERMISTOR IS PROVIDED. (XXXXX) PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
