2016 FORD FUSION Engine Problems

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS PREVIOUS PEOPLE. MY CAR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME JULY 5, 2019 WITH THE CODE P0302 CYLINDER 2 MISFILE. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP JULY 8TH 2019 AFTER 2 WEEKS OF BEING UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG THEY CALL AND TELL ME I NEED TO PAY $3,340 TO REPLACE THE HEAD GASKET BECAUSE IT WAS BLOWN. I TOWED MY CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT WOULD FIX THE HEAD GASKET FOR HALF THE PRICE. ONCE IT WS THERE THE MECHANIC SAID THE HEAD GASKET WAS FINE AFTER $1,500 OF PARTS BEING REPLACED MY CAR STILL WOULDN'T RUN. I CONTACTED FORD CORPORATE FOR ASSISTANCE ON GETTING THE PROBLEM FIXED. MY CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO BOB TOMES FORD THE ORIGINAL DEALER THAT SAID THE HEAD GASKET WAS BLOWN. THEY STILL INSISTED IT WAS THE HEAD GASKET AND CONTINUED TO ARGUE. ONCE CORPORATE...

ENGINE HAS A DESIGN FLAW THAT ALLOWS COOLANT TO LEAK INTO THE CYLINDERS AND CAUSE DAMAGE REQUIRING A COMPLETE LONG BLOCK REPLACEMENT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE ENGINE OVERHEATS. SHOP AND EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY SAY THEY SEE THIS OFTEN. FORD HAS SINCE RELEASED AN UPDATED DESIGN WITHOUT THE FLAW, HOWEVER HAS DONE NOTHING FOR THOSE OWNERS THAT HAVE THE FLAW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A MISFIRE AND THE VEHICLE WAS OVERHEATING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION FORD MIAMI (16800 NW 57TH AVE, HIALEAH, FL 33015, (305) 707-0141) WHERE THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE WAS PERSISTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED. WHILE DRIVING, MY AC KICKS ON WITH NO WARNING AND I LOOSE ALL POWER TO MY CAR. IT SHUTS DOWN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I SEE SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT IT AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE AT THIS TIME. NO RESOLUTION CAN BE FOUND FOR THE PROBLEM. MY CAR SHUTS OFF ON ITS OWN AND THE ONLY WARNING I GET IS KNOWING WHEN MY RADIO CUTS OUT AND MY AC KICKS ON, GET TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE BECAUSE MY CAR IS SHUTTING DOWN.75 MPH ON THE BUSY HIGHWAY.

THE CAR WAS BROUGHT INTO DEALER FOR OVERHEATING 3 TIMES AND TWICE FOR COILS AND SPARK PLUGS REPAIR. UPON BUYING THE VEHICLE COMPLAINED OF CARE NOT STAYING IN GEAR. THE PROBLEM THEY CLAIMED WAS FIXED, BUT SEVERAL MONTHS AGAIN ISSUE CAM AGAIN. AT THAT TIME IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL. THE CAR HAS HAD SEVERAL WARRANTY REPAIRS. ONE OF THE FANS WENT OUT ON THE CAR. REPORTED AT 11 MPH CAR WAS HEATED AT 289 DEGREES. CAR WAS IN PARK WHEN IT PROCEEDED TO STILL MOVE FORWARD IN THE PARKING LOT. EMERGENCY BREAKS HAD TO BE APPLIED AND THE CARE WENT INTO SAFETY MODE AND WAS NOT DRIVEABLE. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE WITHIN TWO YEARS.

MY CAR'S ENGINE SHUTS OFF AFTER ACCELERATING WITH NO WARNING. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN AFTER A COLD START. IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A WARM START. NO ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON DURING THE PROCESS AND MY CAR REMAINS IN MOTION BUT CAN'T ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE STARTS TO SHAKE VIGOROUSLY AS THOUGH IT LOSES 1 OR 2 CYLINDERS. THEN IT SHUTS 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. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A SECOND STARTUP OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AFTER THE SECOND FAILED DRIVE, EVERYTHING WORKS CORRECTLY AGAIN. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS KEEP WORKING WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.

I DRIVE A 2016 FORD FUSION SE AWD WITH THE 2.0L ECOBOOST/GTDI MOTOR. I WAS AT A GAS STATION REFUELING MY VEHICLE, WITH THE 87 OCTANE FUEL THE OEM CALLS FOR ON THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABOUT 1/4 TANK BEFORE REFUELING AND I FILLED MY TANK UNTIL FULL. UPON STARTING MY CAR, I ALWAYS TURN THE KEY RIGHT BEFORE IGNITION AND WAIT FOR THE FUEL PUMPS TO DRAW GAS TO THE MOTOR, THEN START IT. STARTED SEEMINGLY FINE, HOWEVER, WHILE I WAS RESETTING MY MILEAGE TRIP COUNTERS, I NOTICED, AND FELT MY RPM'S DROP DOWN INTO THE 300-400 AREA AND MY MOTOR SHOOK MY CAR. I KIND OF WAS SURPRISED AS MY CAR HAD NEVER DONE THIS, SO I FIGURED MAYBE IT WAS JUST AN ENGINE STUTTER. BUT THEN UPON WAITING A FEW MORE SECONDS, IT DID IT AGAIN, 4 MORE TIMES AND FELT LIKE MY MOTOR WAS READY TO...

I HAVE A 2012 FORD FOCUS AND AS YOU KNOW A 2016 FUSION AS WELL . SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED MY FOCUS I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THE PURGE VALVE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO MY CHECK ENGIN LIGHT CAME ON AND NOW IT'S DOING THE SAME DYING AT STOP LIGHTS AND EVEN ON MORE THEN ONE OCCASION EITHER DYING WHILE DRIVING OR ONE LAST NIGHT DOING 75 MPH ON FREEWAY IN THE FAST LANE WITH NO SHOULDER AND HEAVY TRAFFIC I CALLED FORD COPRPORTAT AND THEY SAID THERE WERE NO REALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE, I JUST PASSED 60,000 MILES AND NOT MY WARRANTY IS UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A STRANGE GRINDING SOUND COMING FROM THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. ALSO, AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR ENTERED THE CABIN. THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO IMPERIAL FORD (8 UXBRIDGE RD, MENDON, MA 01756, 508-473-2800) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SOLENOID AND PURGE CONTROL FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

2016 FORD FUSION MAKING LOUD RATTLING NOISE FROM ENGINE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT EVER CAME ON, BUT FORD SAYING ENGINE IS CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. CONNECTING ROD IN PISTON BROKE LOOSE. HOW DOES NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT EVER COME ON? THIS COULD HAVE KILLED ME ON THE HIGHWAY. HOW DOES A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 128,000 (MOSTLY HIGHWAY) MILES GO INTO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE? CAR HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED.

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START CAR, IT CLICKS BUT WILL NOT START. I HAD ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE BOOT BATTERY AND GOT THE CAR TO START, I TOOK THE CAR TO AUTO ZONE TO TEST BATTERY THEY SAID BATTERY IS GOOD. WHEN I ATTEMPT TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK I CAN REMOVE THE KEYS FROM IGNITION AND OPEN THE DOOR BUT THE CAR NEVER ACTUALLY POWERS COMPLETELY OFF, THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS ARE STILL ON AND MY CAR CHARGER IS STILL WORKING . AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF STARTING MY CAR AND SHIFTING TO PARK IT FINALLY DOES POWER ALL THE WAY OFF.

COOLANT LEAKS INTO ENGINE, AM TOLD I NEED A NEW ENGINE. CAR WILL BEGIN TO VIBRATE INTERMITTENTLY. FIRST SPEEDEE MECHANIC TOLD NE THE ISSUE. TOOK IT TO FORD, THEY CLAIMED IT WAS SPARKPLUGS AND CALIPER. NEXT DAY CAR VIBRATED, TOOK IT BACK TO FORD THEY AND THEY SAID YES ITS LEAKING COOLANT INTO ENGINE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND MY ENGINE LOST POWER. MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I COULD NOT EVEN GO THE SPEED LIMIT. THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY. FORD WAS CHANGING THESE OUT THROUGH THEIR OWN RECALL BUT THAT ENDED YEARS AGO. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY POPULAR OVER THE FORD MODELS AND COULD WIND UP KILLING SOMEBODY WHEN THE ENGINE CUTS OUT. FORD IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS AND I FEEL THE NHTSA NEEDS TO STEP IN AND MAKE THIS A MANDATORY RECALL. SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE FROM THIS AND IT IS ALL ACROSS ALL THEIR MAKES.

COOLANT LEAKS INTO ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SHOOK AND VIBRATED. SPEEDEE MECHANIC FOUND THE ISSUE AND TOLD ME TAKE IT TO FORD AS IT IS THE SAME ISSUE AS FORD RECALLS ON FUSION, AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE. TOOK IT FORD, FIRST THEY SAID NO COOLANT LEAK. A WEEK LATER I TOOK IT BACK THEN THEY SAID YES COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO ENGINE AND I HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW ENGINE.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PULL OFF AFTER STARTING MY CAR (VEHICLE STATIONARY). THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD READ PARK ON THE DASH AND THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT CHANGE REGARDLESS OF ME MOVING IT. AFTER CALLING MY MECHANIC THE INSPECTION SHOWED THE BUSHING CAME OFF. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD A FEW DAYS BEFORE ABOUT THE POTENTIAL WARNING OF THE BUSHING POSSIBLY DETERIORATING. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH MULTIPLE FORD REPS AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET AN APPOINTMENT AFTER BEING TOLD THAT WITH MY CAR BEING EFFECTED NOW, MY PROCESS OF BEING SEEN WOULD BE EXPEDITED. I WAS ALSO TOLD ABOUT HAVING RECEIVED COMPENSATION FOR A RENTAL OR LOANER CAR WHILE MY CAR IS UNABLE TO DRIVE. I THINK FORD IS GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND UNTIL THEY CAN FIND A SOLUTION BUT THAT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT THAT I HAVE BEEN EFFECTED TODAY. RICHMOND FORD LINCOLN REFUSED TO SERVICE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN ABNORMAL SMOKE ODOR. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE, IT REVVED.

THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 800.

WHEN I GOT HOME FROM PICKING MY FRIEND'S DAUGHTER UP FROM SCHOOL YESTERDAY, I PULLED INTO THE GARAGE AND TRIED TO PLACE MY VEHICLE IN PARK. AS MY SHIFTER WENT PAST REVERSE IT TURNED ON THE BACK UP CAMERA ON AND STAYED IN REVERSE EVEN THOUGH MY SHIFTER WAS IN PARK. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, I COULDN'T LET OFF THE BRAKE BECAUSE IT CONTINUED TO BACK UP WHEN I DID, SO I PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. THIS COULD HAVE ENDED A LOT WORSE. IF IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE I WAS PICKING MY FRIEND'S DAUGHTER UP FROM SCHOOL, THERE WERE KIDS EVERYWHERE AND I MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP MY VEHICLE. MY CAR IS A 2016 FORD FUSION TITANIUM, FORD ISSUED A RECALL NUMBERED 18S20 FOR SHIFTER CABLE BUSHINGS GOING BAD IN FORD FUSIONS BETWEEN 2013 AND 2016. I CALLED...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION. AFTER LEAVING THE OFFICE AND WALKING TO THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT HEARD MUSIC PLAYING IN THE VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THE KEYS WERE ON HER PERSON AND THE VEHICLE WAS STILL LOCKED. ADDITIONALLY, ON OCCASION, THE AIR CONDITIONER, LIGHTING, AND RADIO WOULD ACTIVATE INDEPENDENTLY WITH THE IGNITION IN THE OFF POSITION AND THE DOORS LOCKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KOONS FORD OF BALTIMORE (LOCATED AT 6970 SECURITY BLVD, WINDSOR MILL, MD 21244, (410) 298-3800) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO SEVERE BATTERY DRAINAGE. ALSO, THE WATER PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BATTERY AND WATER PUMP WERE REPLACED, AND THE POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE WAS UPDATED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES RECURRED.

TAKATA RECALL, LOUD HUMMING/ VIBRATION NOISE APPEARS TO BE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH REAR OF VEHICLE. FIRST STARTED WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET, PULLED OVER TO CHECK AND IT WAS WHEN THE ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON, ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON, AFTER THIS THE KEY FOB PUSH TO START HAS NOT BEEN WORKING AND EVERY TIME YOU PUMP GAS THE ENGINE HAS PROBLEMS TURNING ON, ONLY TURNS ON AFTER PRESSING THE GAS.

WHILE IN MOTION (65 MPH) THE VEHICLES ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILED, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ENTER AN EMERGENCY MODE IN WHICH THE RPMS WERE FIXED AT APPROXIMATELY 1.2K. THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WAS LOST COMPLETELY AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE COASTED OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. AN IMMEDIATE RESTART OF THE ENGINE DID NOT REMEDY THE ISSUE, BUT AFTER LEAVING THE VEHICLE OFF FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED, ALLOWING FOR FULL USE OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE INCIDENT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY HAD "FAILED" AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I KNOW THAT FORD HAS HAD AN ISSUE ON OLDER YEAR THROTTLE BODIES AND THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THOSE. I AM HOPING THAT THESE NEWER VEHICLES WILL BE LOOKED AT,...

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE LOUD VIBRATION/HORN TYPE SOUND ENSUED. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S COMING FROM THE GAS TANK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD FUSION.

THE LAST TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED, AN OFF DUTY OFFICER HAD TO ASSIST WITH MANEUVERING THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD WITH A DISABLED PASSENGER AND CHILD PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND IT PROCEEDED TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE. HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BREAK TO STOP CAR FROM MOVING. AFTER THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND IT WAS TOWED TO DEALER. IT SHOULD BE NOTED MY CAR WAS AT THE DEALER FOR MONTHS FOR THE SAME CAR AND THEY STATED THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED.

IN MAY OF 2017 MY TRANSMISSION WAS CAUSING MY CAR TO JERK FORWARD SEVERELY WHEN EVER I TRIED TO PUT ON THE GAS. A FORD DEALERSHIP REPLACED/FIXED MY TRANSMISSION WHICH WAS UNDER WARRANTEE AT THE TIME. NOW, LESS THEN 2 YEARS LATER AND 22,000 MILES LATER THE EXACT SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT TO A MACHINIC WHO SAID TO FIX IT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO BASICALLY DO THE EXACT SAME THING THE FORD DEALERSHIP DID TO FIX IT BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IS SHOT! NOW I AM JUST OUT OF WARRANTEE I HAVE TO FOOT THE BILL. IT WAS BAD ENOUGH NEEDING A NEW TRANSMISSION JUST A YEAR AFTER GETTING THE CAR, BUT THEN NEEDING ANOTHER NEW TRANSMISSION LESS THEN 2 YEARS LATER IS NOT RIGHT? FORD HAD BEEN NO HELP!

I SHUT THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. THIS TIME THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IMMEDIATELY. I COULDN'T EVEN MOVE 30 FEET. HAD TO BE TOWED FROM THE SIDE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY.
