2014 FORD FUSION Engine Problems

FORD SOLD ME A 2014 FORD FUSION WITH A FAULTY ENGINE BLOCK. MY ENGINE HAS COMPLETELY FAILED FROM COOLANT ENTERING THE CYLINDER AND FORD WILL ONLY FIX THE 1.6 AND UP ENGINE

MY VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED INA ACCIDENT 11/25/2019 WHICHI RESULTEED IN A DDER HITTING THE CAR. THE CARS BODY WAS REPAIRED AS WELL AS THE RADIATOR AND THEN MARCH 2020. THE CAR SHUT COMPLETED DOWN. I WAS ADVISED TO CHECK TO SEE IF THIS WAS RECALL BECAUSE THE CAR NEVER WORKED AFTER THE DEER HIT IT. THE COOLANT CONTIUED TO BACK INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING COOLANT INTRUSION INTO THE CYLINDERS. EACH TIME WE PUT MORE IN IT RAN OUT OR INTO THE ENGINE.

WITH ABSOLUTELY NO PREVIOUS ISSUES, THE CAR STARTED OVERHEATING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME AFTER TURNING ON THE HEAT (ON A 90 DEGREE DAY) AND RIDING IT OUT. IT TURNED OUT MY CAR WAS OUT OF COOLANT, WHICH WAS ODD. WE FILLED IT AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THEN MY CAR SAT FOR ABOUT A WEEK, THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND WHEN IT WAS JUMPED EVERY WARNING CAME UP ON MY DASH AND MY ENGINE WAS IN LIMP MODE. TURNS OUT MY CYLINDER CRACKED AND COOLANT WAS FLOODING MY ENGINE. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, IT TURNS OUT IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE MODEL'S ENGINE AND FORD HASN'T DONE ANYTHING TO REMEDY IT.

I BOUGHT MY 2014 FORD FUSION FROM USED CAR LOT HAD IT FOR 2 YEARS I KEEP MAINTENANCE UP IN TIMELY MANNER. ABOUT 6 TO 8 MONTHS AGO MY CAR HAS NO POWER WHEN DRIVING IT JERKS LIKE I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND AND WHEN CHANGING LANES I TRY TO SPEED UP I PRESS GAS PEDAL BUT CAR GOES NOWHERE ONLY HIGH REVVING SOUND TAKES A MINUTE TO PICK UP SPEED ITS USES ALOT OF GAS AND 4 MONTHS MY SEAT BELT HAS TROUBLE LOCKING IN BELT. I STILL HAVE AND DRIVE MY CAR TO AND FROM WORK BUT ITS ONLY GETTING WORSE

WHILE DRIVING ON A FREEWAY, MY 2014 FORD FUSION 2.0L ECOBOOST STARTS TO OVERHEAT. WHILE TRYING TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL TO INCREASE THE SPEED, THE CAR TAKES A WHILE TO INCREASE THE SPEED AND AT THE SAME TIME THE TEMPARATURE GAUGE IS GOING UP AS WELL UNTIL I GET THE OVERHEATING NOTIFICATION ON MY CAR. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN MY DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHILE THERE WERE CARS BEHIND ME. I HAD TO GET OUT OF THE FREEWAY AND EXITED ON THE FIRST EXIT I SEE. I STOPPED ON A CURB OF A STREET AND OPENED THE HOOD OF THE CAR TO CHECK WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT AND I SAW THAT THERE ARE COOLANT ALL OVER MY ENGINE AND THAT MY COOLANT LEVEL WAS EMPTY EVEN THOUGH I FILLED IT UP ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. I HAD TO REFILL MY COOLANT A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THE...

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT BEGIN TO SPUDDER AND HAD HARD TIME GOING. WHITE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM TAIL PIPE AND WHEN I PULLED OVER AND POPPED THE HOOD THERE WAS SO MUCH SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHERE YOU PUT OIL IN. I WAS AFRAID IT WAS FIXING TO CATCH ON FIRE. EVEN HAD SOMEONE PULL UP BECAUSE HE THOUGHT IT WAS ON FIRE. MY CAR WILL NOT START NOW.

WHEN THE ENGINE GETS TO A WARM TEMPERATURE AND THEN SHUT OFF AND LEFT FOR 10 OR SO MINUTES, WHEN THE ENGINE IS RESTARTED, PUT IT DRIVE, WITHIN SEVERAL SECONDS (15 SECONDS TO 120 SECONDS) IT WILL BEGIN SHUTTERING AND DIE WHILE DRIVING. RESTARTING THE ENGINE AFTER IT QUITS (WHICH TAKES ABOUT 2 SECONDS, LONGER THAN NORMAL) WILL START AND WILL AGAIN DIE WHEN BEGINNING TO DRIVE. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE FOR ABOUT 5-6 MONTHS ON MY FORD WITH +/- 66K MILES. THE ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE AND MUCH MORE FREQUENT. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR DIAGNOSTIC CODES ARE PRESENT. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN TURNING ONTO A BUSY ROAD AND IT IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE OF A SAFETY CONCERN. I DO NOT EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE FOLLOWING A COLD ENGINE START.

ACCELERATING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN VEHICLE SUDDENLY BECAME UNRESPONSIVE AND SLUGGISH. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING. PULLED OFF HIGHWAY. HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALER. THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE ON THE 1.6L AND 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINES WHERE COOLANT LEAKS INTO THE NUMBER 4 CYLINDER CAUSING LOW COMPRESSION AND POTENTIAL OVERHEATING RENDERING VEHICLE UNDRIVABLE. FORD QUOTED ME $6,500 FOR A NEW ENGINE, AS THEY STATED, IS THE ONLY FIX. CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT BE ON THE HOOK BECAUSE OF A CLEAR AND OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW AS STATED BY FORD INCLUDED IN THE 1.6L ECOBOOST RECALL, BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO INCLUDE THE 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINES. (SEE ATTACHED LINK REGARDING POSSIBLE CLASS ACTION SUIT AS PREPARED BY A NASHVILLE LAW FIRM) COUNTLESS OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ON HERE AND OTHER FORUMS. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY TO INCLUDE THE 2014 FUSION 2.0L ECOBOOST...

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I GOT THE NOTIFICATION THAT MY CAR WAS RUNNING HOT. I WASN'T TO FAR FROM HOME SO I DECIDED TO KEEP DRIVING, WHEN I SLOWED DOWN IT WOULD LEVEL OUT BUT WHEN I WOULD SPEED UP I WOULD GET THE NOTIFICATION AGAIN. MY HUSBAND PUT COOLANT IN IT THAT DAY BUT WITHIN TWO WEEKS WE GOT THE NOTIFICATION AGAIN AND HAD TO PURCHASE MORE COOLANT TO PUT IN THE CAR AND THEN ANOTHER TWO WEEKS WE GOT THE NOTIFICATION AGAIN. HAD TO PUT EVEN MORE COOLANT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY THAT MY COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE AND IT WILL BE 6500 TO REPAIR. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM AND OTHER FORDS HAVE HAD RECALLS DEALING WITH THE COOLANT BUT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THOSE RECALLS. *TR

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...

MY 2014 FORD FUSION WITH 54,000 MILES HAS AN ENGINE PROBLEM. SOMEHOW THE COOLANT/ANTI-FREEZE WAS ALLOWED TO LEAK INTO THE ENGINE.

CAR WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK WHEN THIS HAPPENED: 2013-16 MODEL YEAR FORD FUSION AND 2013-14 FORD ESCAPE VEHICLES TO REPLACE SHIFTER CABLE BUSHINGS. ON AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE BUSHING THAT ATTACHES THE SHIFTER CABLE TO THE TRANSMISSION MAY DETACH FROM THE TRANSMISSION. A DEGRADED SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING THAT DETACHES FROM THE TRANSMISSION MAY ALLOW THE TRANSMISSION TO BE IN A GEAR STATE DIFFERENT THAN THE GEAR SHIFT POSITION SELECTED BY THE DRIVER.

CAR SHIFTS EXTREMELY HARD OUT OF PARK AFTER SITTING FOR AN HOUR OR MORE. ALSO SHIFTS VERY HARD INTO 3RD GEAR WHILE DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH THROTTLE YOU GIVE IT.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY CAR STARTED TO SAY THAT IT THE COOLANT TEMPERATURE IS OVER HEATINGS PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF YET.AFTER SITTING FOR OVER 3 HOURS THE CAR STILL ALERTS ME THAT THE COOLANT TEMPERATURE IS HIGH. I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR.

MY CARS ENGINE SHUTS OFF AFTER ACCELERATING WITH NO WARNING. NO ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON DURING THE PROCESS AND MY CAR REMAINS IN MOTION BUT CAN'T ACCELERATE. THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE VIGOROUSLY WHEN RIGHT BEFORE SHUTTING OFF. I NEED TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT GOING, BUT IT BECOMES DANGEROUS WHEN ON THE ROAD.

HAPPENED 12 DIFFERENT TIMES FOR ME SINCE FEBRUARY.

MY CAR IS A 2014 FORD FUSION I PURCHASED AT THE DEALERSHIP 2 YEARS AGO. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL RECENTLY. AFTER I TURN ON MY CAR AND SWITCH GEAR TO "DRIVE" MY CAR WILL SHUT DOWN WITHIN 20 FEET. I HAVE TO PARK THE CAR AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN; IT ALWAYS HAPPENS LATER ON DURING THE DAY WHEN DRIVING OFF A PARKING LOT. THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT NEVER COMES OF, BUT THERE IS CERTAINLY A PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR SHUTS DOWN ON IT'S OWN; IT NEVER SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED, BUT I AM TRULY CONCERN WITH THIS MATTER. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PROBLEM. I WAS ADVISED IT WILL COST ME $110.00 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC, WHICH I PAID. I WAITED FOR 4 HOURS AND ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC...

MY CAR IS STALLING AFTER IT IS DRIVEN FOR 15-20 MINS. ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED OFF, IF IT IS STARTED WITHIN THE NEXT HOUR, IT ALWAYS STALLS OUT. I SEE THAT FORD FUSION HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT WAS RECALLED. THIS IS THE NOTE THAT I SAW ONLINE FOR THE FORD FOCUS RECALL, "FORD IS RECALLING NEARLY 1.3 MILLION FOCUS COMPACT CARS IN THE U.S. BECAUSE A FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM CAN CAUSE THE ENGINES TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING. THE RECALL COVERS CARS FROM 2012 THROUGH 2018 WITH 2-LITER FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINES." I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY KEEP DIAGNOSING IT AS A BAD FUEL SENSORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. WELL, I'VE REPLACED THEM ALREADY AND THE SAME PROBLEM KEEPS HAPPENING. I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP PAYING THE DEALER FOR SOMETHING THAT I BELIEVE IS AN ISSUE THAT THEY SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF SINCE...

LOUD NOISE FROM PASSENGER SIDE OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN WE STARTED THE CAR ON THANKSGIVING DAY. WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC WHICH IS 2 MILES FROM OUR HOME. HE DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY AS A BAD WATER PUMP BUT WAS CONFUSED AS TO WHY THE WATER PUMP WOULD GO BAD AT ONLY 77K MILES. WHEN HE WENT TO ORDER THE PART HE FOUND OUT THAT THE EXISTING WATER PUMP HAD BEEN DISCONTINUED AND REPLACED BY A WATER PUMP THAT NO LONGER USED THE ELECTRONICS THAT THE ORIGINAL WATER PUMP USED. FORD (FROM LOCAL DEALERSHIP)TECHS EXPLAINED THAT THE EXISTING WIRES SHOULD JUST BE CUT AND SHRINKWRAPPED AS THEY WERE NO LONGER NEEDED.

AIR CONDITIONING CLUTCH BROKE OFF THE COMPRESSOR. SINCE THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD, I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED. HAS THIS HAPPENED TO OTHER CARS THAT ARE LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD? THE SYSTEM WORKED ONE DAY AND NOT THE NEXT. ONLY RECORD I HAVE IS THE BILL THAT I PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED.

EVERY SO OFTEN MY CAR WILL STALL OUT. I WILL RESTART AND IT WILL STALL OUT ALEAST 3 TIMES BEFORE IT WILL DRIVE NORMAL, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON BEFORE THE STALLING OUT STOPS. IF I MAKE A LONG TRIP 20 MILES OR MORE, AND REACH MY DESTINATION CAR WILL SHALL AT THE END OF THE TRIP OR WHEN IM LEAVING FROM A LONG TRIP. I CANT SEEM TO HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON LONG ENOUGH FOR THE DEALER TO CHECK DUE TO LIGHT WILL CLEAR.
