2013 FORD FUSION Unknown Or Other Problems

My rear camera will go out while in reverse. Sometimes boxes appear on the screen or it will be completely black.

Car stopped driving correctly and the transmission now needs replaced

My car was parked in my driveway. I realized that I didn't have my key on me. So I quickly ran in the house to get my key. I went outside to find my car rolling down my driveway into my neighbor's brick house. My 11 year old was messing with the gear shift from the back seat and was able to change the gear to neutral with no brake engaged and no key in the ignition. When I went to the dealership, an employee was able to tell me that it was a bad shifter cable bushing. I checked to see if there is a recall and there was for our year, make, and model; unfortunately, our VIN is now registered under the recall.

Engine coolant leaking into cylinder 2. This is a known common issue on eco boost engines. Engine repair was quoted as replacement needed for 8000$. This is dangerous because the car will stop and potentially leave you stranded in the middle of the road with traffic. Additionally, this may result in fires due to water pump running dry and water being burned off in the cylinder which results in blue smoke on cold starts. Ford has been knowing of the engine defect and continued to place the engines in their cars as late as 2019.

The contact owned a 2013 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked at the contact's work parking lot, the vehicle caught on fire due to unknown reasons. A security guard discovered the fire, and called the Fire Department extinguished the fire. A fire report was filed. No police report was filed. The contact was at work during the incident, and it was not until he finished his shift that he discovered that his vehicle had caught on fire. The contact believed the fire started from the engine area, per witnesses. The vehicle was towed to a local towing yard. The contact notified his insurance company and deemed the vehicle totaled. The fire spread and damaged several vehicles parked nearby. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 127,000.

Mileage: 127,000

The back up/ rear camera failed on this vehicle. The sudden failure of this caused me to panic as I could no longer see directly behind my vehicle.

Vehicle has coolant leaking and temp getting hot just like the Ford coolant recall on my year, make and model of car, yet my VIN doesn't bring up a recall. Took to Ford dealership for a coolant sensor recall and told can't fix it the coolant issue is fixed and that it should be on the recall list. Bao I sit with no car.

Steering wheel pulls to the right even after new alignment caused me to hit a curb

My vehicle has a coolant intrusion from a known defective head gasket. The gasket has failed and there is coolant on the pistons. This is a known issue for Ford ecoboost engines from 2013-2018 and I request NHTSA's assistance with compelling Ford to remedy the problem.

Complete computer system is not working, won’t show me how many miles i have, won’t blow out any air. My windows won’t roll down. This happens at least 10 times a year. I put it in drive and it went BACKWARDS as i pressed on the gas pedal and the brake locked up. So i turned it on and off and SAME thing happened.

The fire started in the engine, unsure of exact cause according to the fire report. My wife [XXX] ), I, and my one year old daughter’s safety was compromised bc there was no warning until a minute before us realizing fire and exited the vehicle. Car was investigated by local department. Check engine light flashing crazy less than a minute before car loss power INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Break lights will not turn off after week of high heat and humidity.

My complaint does not concern an accident. It concerns the two incomplete recalls referenced above. I have been trying to schedule these repairs since, I believe, February and the Service Department at the local Ford dealership, Mac Haik Ford, 4242 East Sam Houston Pkwy S, Pasadena, TX 77505, will not even respond to my requests to schedule the work. I have left detailed messages with the Haik contact representative (vehicle model and year, the Campaign/NHTSA numbers that I want to have done, my phone number, my email address, etc.) as requested by Haik's contact person and no one from the Service Department has ever responded, not even once. In order to give Ford and Haik a final chance before filing this complaint, I left TWO scheduling requests this week- one on Monday or Tuesday and one yesterday. The Service Department did not respond to either. However, in response to my repeated efforts to schedule this safety recall work, I have been spammed with car sales solicitation calls and emails back from the dealership beginning on March 1. (Perhaps earlier, but March 1 is the first undeleted email that is still on my computer.) These safety recall campaigns are not being administered, and processed as such by Ford Motor Company, at least not by its dealership in Pasadena, Texas. The Mac Haik dealership obviously has no interest in doing this recall work. I suppose they can make more money doing other work. In any event, Ford's recall notices are just used as sales prospect-generating tools. They are not actually accepting cars and doing the recall work.

I have driven my car a little over 600 miles after the first recall was done for the engine overheat and a sensor was replaced. They drove it 0 miles to test drive it after (it shows on my paperwork) since around 600 miles it has sat because now my engine is actually overheating. I had no idea that I could contact ford again about this until recently and I have the paperwork and mileage to match. But I am afraid they will say the recall was performed and be of no help. Clearly they didn’t care enough to test drive the car after the fix. So I cannot trust them to properly take care of this problem.

Although this vehicle is 10 years old it has only logged less than 17k miles (near new condition). A few months back it was noted that the backlighting on the console, steering wheel, interior door panels and overhead console were inoperative under non-daylight conditions. At night, it's driving blind from an instrumentation perspective. Controls cannot be located as they cannot be seen. This backlighting has a mind of its own. Upon entering the vehicle all the lighting in question lights up and then times out (?) Activating outside lighting (headlights) when you expect and need the backlighting, it just isn't there. Disconnecting the battery for 12 hours (reboot) did nothing to solve the problem. Personally, I believe the slap-happy lighting engineers went way overboard with warning and flashing lights on this vehicle. The lighting in question is there, not just when needed. Due to this over-engineering I refuse to pay shop labor prices to troubleshoot or replace parts on a premium vehicle. As this car has become the "Recall Queen" I feel it was placed on the market well before its time and as a consumer I'm now the guinea pig in the field. Never another Ford. NOTE: Uploaded file shows console section and backlighting is ON. Ignition is off and if car is started the backlighting eventually turns off. Activating the headlights the console and all other backlighting remains dead.

1. Im driving and all of a sudden my car will not leave the park position . It turns out that theres a recall on said problem and when i called dealership to have them tow vehicle they said i have to pay for tow. Even though its a manufactor recall. And I get car serviced regularly at dealership. This clearly not my fault as a consumer so why am i a absorbing cost. I calked for road side they gave me run around and numbers which no one answers . While my car is not working and thank god i was at a stop sign when this happened it could have been worst. And i must pay for something that is not my fault. Clearly not how this works when there is a recall. 2. Another is that i found with this car was i let back seat down to put my grand babys stroller in and seat in back wont let up on hybrid due to all the wiring under neath and in trunk. Apparently u must leave middle seat belt in latched position because that what allows u to let seat up. The car seat is supposed to go in middle area. This is clearly poor nanufactoring. But yet they charge a hundred dollars to let seat up .also a manufactoring issue. Tge solution that was given was never let back seat down. But how is that a solution when seat should let down and up. I can put car seat in back anymore nor can my babys buckle their seat belt in back. It is clearly a safety issue and if i check online or youtube this is clearly a real issue but ford ignored. How many moms or kids must die from fords haphazard behavior or stand behind the vehicle recalls that the nhtsa has authorized them to repair. . I am almost 50 but i gurantee i will make this my mission to hold ford and nhtsa accountable for this negligentband poorly made cars by ford. I will not pay for an issue which is clearly a manufacters issue. I have to pay for a tow on a transmission recall . When it was never my fault to begin with.

My passenger door came open while I was driving. I was not able to get it to close.

It has recall.

Not sure if related to recall - took vehicle in due service in December 2022 for service and recall. My Ford app indicates they did not take care of it. While driving from California to arizona on January 9, 2023 the engine lights came on: coolant hot, vehicle unsafe to drive, see manual. I couldn’t drive my vehicle. Broke down on the 10 interstate. Would not move. Would not go into reverse. It was towed to surprise Ford in surprise, arizona and I’m currently awaiting diagnostic testing. They said they will check if it’s related to recall. Towed from I-10 to home by AAA. Home to shop by sttae farm insurance. Thank you. The contact stated that after being inspected at the dealer, the damage to the vehicle was found to have no relation to the recall.

I purchased this 2013 in September 2022. My car is jerking while driving, when put into drive from reverse, it will say in reverse. It will shut down while idling from stop to go. I am afraid because, I almost caused an accident while driving the interstate.

Power steering column just stopped working in the middle of driving and I made it home okay but the next day it barely even could move and a bunch of lights came up on the dash and they wouldn’t stop going off whenever I start the car

Was sold the car with no inspection and was pushed to get this 2013 Ford Fusion. Lights inside car flickers on and off rather car is on or off; caused to get new battery.

accidente automovilístico por que dejó de funcionar el vehículo y se tuvo que utilizar el freno de mano porque el vehículo dejó de responder ocasionando un accidente aparatoso que puso en peligro mi vida y el de las personas con las que me impacte car accident because the vehicle stopped working and the handbrake had to be used because the vehicle stopped responding, causing a spectacular accident that endangered my life and that of the people with whom I was impacted

Ford Dealership says that the car has swollen lug nuts Therefore they will not rotate the tires They are factory wheels and lug nuts Why has there not been a recall on all of these junk lug nuts?

My coolant has been disappearing at an exceptional rate in my 2013 Ford Fusion with a 1.6L Ecoboost engine. About once every week or so my "Coolant Level Running Low" message comes on and I have to add more coolant. This went on for several months, no dangerous problem, just buying coolant regularly and wondering where it's all going. No sign of coolant under my car. I was driving to work when the warning message "Engine Coolant Overtemperature" came on and my car stalled. Thankfully I was able to pull over safely. The coolant was low again and the engine overheated. I read other people with the same year, make, model, and engine also had the same issue - coolant vanishing causing the car to overheat and stall, some resulting in fire. I believe this is due to the coolant leaking into the hot exhaust system as safety recall 12S41 describes. Because my car was manufactured in 2013 and not 2012, my VIN is not listed to be recalled despite the same issue on my same make, model, and engine. The Ford dealership would not fix it as a recall. I'm grateful mine didn't result in a fire this time unlike some other unlucky folks in my same position.

when I pull out the gearbox it makes a medium loud noise in the transmission, I try to call because I received notifications, number and description of the 19S16 campaign but it turns out that the automated call does not recognize the numbering

The mechanism and cable to unlatch the hood corroded to the point that the hood to the car was unable to be opened. This could be a hazard in the event oil needed or antifreeze needed to be added to prevent engine damage. Or if the hood were to somehow become ajar, it could potentially cause the hood to open up while driving, creating a visual obstruction and increasing the risk for a motor vehicle crash.

Engine shut off while driving, and a "transmission not in park" message was displayed. Car was able to restart after several tries. Looking online I found a lot of people with the same issue, but no answered questions.

The transmission keeps jerking and when waiting for a light to change car jerks. Also makes a noise that sounds like water boiling but it is something with the Moter.

Our transmission thinks the car is always in drive. It won’t start, and shifts very roughly. There was a recall for this, but not sure why our specific vehicle wasn’t included.

On 10/31/21 at approximately 7:30 pm my dashboard alerted me with a steering assist fault after making a turn on a rotary on Mystic valley Pkwy Somerville Ma 02144. After entering the rotary my vehicles steering wheel become stiff and hard to move and staring moving towards the left side close to the curbs. I was traveling at around 20mph. I was able to move the vehicle to a near by park that was located on the same street as the rotary (Dilboy stadium). After parking the vehicle, I shut it off and restarted it. After doing so, the alert disappeared and I was able to drive the vehicle normally. After leaving the park 5 minutes later the alert popped back again. I was driving in a straight line so the steering assist did not cause much of a problem, however I could feel the stiffness of the steering wheel. When I arrived to my destination, after performing a left turn my vehicle once again starting leaning towards the left side almost causing me to hit the curb. At around 9:00pm I had towed the vehicle to a Fords dealership. On Monday the 1st I was able to drive the vehicle with same steering wheel conditions to an independent dealership who performed a check and received a fault code of C200D:49 with the solution of replacing power steering rack with module which could only fixed at a Ford dealership due to the module. In the situation described above I was very fortunate that I was not driving at high speed in an area with high traffic, as an accident would’ve most likely occurred. I know that there is no recall on my specific vin however I am aware that other vins with the same year and model have recalls on them. I do not have any other alerts on the car. The fault I came across is a safety hazard not only to myself but other cars on the road. After digging around on the web the steering wheel fault is a common error that a lot of Ford owners come across and I believe that an investigation needs to be launched to protect the safety of drivers and pedestrians.

No warning light. Rpm’s surge high, low then engine shuts off while driving or idle. I could be in the middle of an intersection and my engine will shut itself off. Major safety issue and this car needs to be recalled. Happens even after taking it to the dealer “fixing” the “problem.” I’m not sure they even know the issue. They just try replacing things for a short term fix yet still having issues long term.

The car would stop after the warning of over heating so the car would just shut down go into what is called limp mode was told that is to protect the engine so we was told that in order for them to check we first had to purchase ford parts to get it started which we did but about 30days later same problem took it back they charged me another fee to put on the diagnostic machine which we did. That still didn't take care of the problem this went on from April 2021 well in May received a recall for the coolant system on this car make and model made appt took it in well they failed at fixing this with the car having to be left there weeks at a time it is still there they couldn't repair it they now are saying it is the engine do we want it repaired I don't no how when they can't even fix what it was there for now all of a sudden it's on me and the agent that called first said the transmission they have no clue they are just trying not to be responsible for this car even towing company knows where to take the car I have been put down all over town. This has been a nightmare I am afraid of the car and no trust with the people that's fixing the recall because they don't know how.

Transmission made noise and stopped running. Need replacement at a cost of $8,000.00.

Power steering was lost. Fuse and belt is still okay.

MY FAMILY AND I DROVE TO THE BEACH AND WE PARKED. THEN WHEN WERE DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY I LOST POWER IN THE STEERING WHEEL. IT TOOK ALL MY STRENGTH/ MUSCLE TO KEEP CONTROL OF CAR. THAT IS WHEN A LIGHT CAME ON. I MANAGED TO GET HOME AT THAT POINT WE PULLED OUT THE MANUAL TO LOOK UP THE SYMBOL. IT TOO ABOUT 1 HOUR ALONG WITH THE INTERNET JUST TO FIGURE THAT IT WAS THE POWER ASSISTED SYSTEM. IT STATED THAT THE STEERING WOULD BE WITH OUT POWER AND COULD POTENTIAL LOSE CONTROL ALL TOGETHER. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED TO HAVE IT TOWED FROM HOME TO DEALER AFTER LOOKING UP RECALLS I NOTICED THEIR WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME THING THAT HAPPEN TO ME BUT ON THE EAST COAST. HOWEVER MY VIN NUMBER SAID MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. BUT THE YEAR MAKE MODEL WAS. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THAT BUT EVEN THOUGH MY CAR IS A 2013 IT HAVE LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT. SHOWING IT WAS NOT DRIVEN MUCH OR MISSED USED. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN PART OR MANUFACTURE INSTALLATION OR WHATEVER. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MY FORD DEALERS AND COMPANY FOR NOT FIXING IT AND MAKING ME DO SO ESPACIAL BECAUSE THERE IS A RECALL ON IT OUT THERE SHOWING IT IS A DEFECT.

NOTICE SENT (MAY 2019) STATING THAT THE BUSHING IN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME. THIS MAY CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE TO NOT BE ABLE TO FULLY MOVE THE TRANSMISSION TO THE SELECTED GEAR POSITION. IF THE DRIVER ATTEMPTS TO SHIFT TO PARK IN THIS CONDITION, THE TRANSMISSION MAY NOT BE IN PARK POSITION EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFTER POSITION INDICATES THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK, AND THE "TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK" WARNING MAY NOT APPEAR. THIS COULD RESULT IN UNITENDED VEHICLE MOVEMENT, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY OR CRASH. I WAS TOLD TO BRING MY CAR (8/19/19 )BUT WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT IN. NO ACCIDENT HAS OCCURED AS OF 8/19/19.

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF THE GAS PUMP. WHEN I GOT READY TO LEAVE THE STORE I TRIED TO PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE. THE SHIFTER WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK. ON THE DASH IT SHOWED THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR ACTED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE PUT ON ONCE IT WAS PUSHED AWAY FROM THE GAS PUMPS. THE CAR THEN HAD TO BE TOWED HOME BECAUSE THERE WAS AND STILL IS NO FIX FOR THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN MAY AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY BUT TGE DEALERSHIP INSISTED THAT I PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A TEMPORARY FIX THEN BE REIMBURSED LATER....IF THERE WAS ANY KIND OF FIX EVEN A TEMPORARY ONE MY VEHICLE SHOULDVE JUST BEEN FIXED. I AM NOT AT FAULT HERE.

MY 2013 FUSION HAS A DOOR LATCH THAT IS BROKEN. ACCORDING TO RECALL 15S16 THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL BUT, ACCORDING TO FORD, THIS IS NOT A COVERED VIN, YET MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN THE SAME FACTORY AS THE STATED RECALL (HERMOSILLO IN 2013), THEREFORE, SHOULD BE COVERED. MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.

MY CAR CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY NOW MY CAR IS GIVING ME THE WARNING SIGNAL TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK. THIS IS THE SAME WARNING I'M THE RECALL. I'VE BEEN TRY TO GET THE DEALER TO FIX IT SINCE I GOT THE LETTER 3 MONTHS AGO BUT THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY CAN'T ORDER THE PART THEY ARE BUSY. I ALMOST GOT HIT BY AN 18 WHEELER DUE TO THIS RECALL NOT BEING FIXED. IT'S BEEN 3 MONTHS AND FORD STILL HAS NOT FIXED THE RECALL AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR. I WAS DRIVING ON TO 175 IN COLUMBIA MD WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR CAME UNLATCHED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WITH A PASSENGER SITTING ON THAT SIDE AND TWO PEOPLE IN THE BACK SEAT. THE DOOR DOES NOT STAY SHUT AND ONE PERSON HAD TO DRIVE IT BACK HOME ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE THE OTHER PERSON MANUALLY TRIED THEIR BEST TO HOLD THE DOOR SHUT THE WHOLE TIME. PASSENGERS WERE UNINJURED AND GOT LUCKY THAT THERE WASN'T ANOTHER CAR IN THE LANE NEXT TO IT WHILE THIS HAPPENED. CALLED NORTH CENTRAL FORD DEALERSHIP IN RICHARDSON,TX AS WELL AS FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND NEITHER PARTIES ARE WILLING TO HELP UNLESS WE PAY FOR THE DOOR OUT OF POCKET AS THEY CLAIMED THIS SPECIFIC CAR WAS NOT PART OF ALL THE RECALLS THAT SIMILAR FUSION'S AND FOCUS'S HAVE BEEN HAVING. THIS FAMILY ALSO OWNS A 2012 FORD FOCUS THAT SAME THING HAPPENED AND WAS PART OF THE RECALL AND DOOR WAS REPLACED BY FORD. FORD REFUSES TO UNDERSTAND AND COMPREHEND THE SEVERITY OF THIS LIFE THREATENING ISSUE AND HELP THEIR CUSTOMERS SO THAT THEY CAN SAVE MONEY. OUR LIVES WERE IN DANGER AND IT'S NOT A MATTER THAT NEEDS TO WAIT TILL MORE PEOPLE DIE FOR IT TO BE RECALLED. IT'S BEEN 4 DAYS AND FORD GAVE US A CASE NUMBER AND SAID THEY WILL LOOK INTO IT AND WE STILL DON'T HAVE A CAR OR A SOLUTION AND THIS CAR IS STILL IN THE HOUSE GARAGE.

PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LATCH BROKE AND FLEW OPEN ON HIGHWAY EXPELLING CONTENTS OF PASSENGER SEAT ONTO BUSY HIGHWAY. DEALER STATED THAT THE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE DEFECTIVE DOOR LATCH WAS ALREADY PERFORMED ON VEHICLE IN 8/2017. THAT THEY "FORD" ONLY WARANTEES PARTS REPLACED BY A SAFETY RECALL FOR 1 YEAR OR 12,000 MILES, SO I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR AS IT IS NOW SIMPLY A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. WHEN I ORIGINALLY CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THE GUYS ASKED ME IF I HAD ALREADY HAD THE RECALL PERFORMED. I TOLD HIM TO CHECK THE COMPUTER AND SEE, THAT I ONLY BRING MY VEHICLE TO THEM, WHILE HE WAS LOOKING HE MENTIONED THAT THEY HAVE BEEN STARTING TO SEE VEHICLES COMING IN AGAIN FOR THE SAME REPAIR EVEN AFTER THE RECALL. LATER HE DENIED EVER SAYING THAT ME. SO WHAT IS THERE TO STOP COMPANIES LIKE FORD FROM REPLACING A PART RECALLED FOR SAFETY REASONS, WITH ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PART AND THEN SIMPLY STATING THAT THE WARANTEE ON THE NEW PART IS ONLY 12 MONTHS. THIS MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE TO ME, IS THERE SUCH A THING AS A SAFETY RECALL ON THE SAFETY RECALL OR IS I GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS AND MY LIABILITY IS GONE? HOW AM I TO KNOW IF THE DEALER EVEN DID THE RECALL IN THE FIRST PLACE AND NOT JUST MARKED IT COMPLETE? WHAT ARE THE ODDS THAT THE EXACT PART THAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND RECALLED AND REPLACED WOULD FAIL AGAIN FOR THE EXACT SAME THING IT WAS RECALLED FOR TO BEGIN WITH? TRIED FORD NOT JUST DEALER AND GOT THE SAME RESPONSE ON THE 12 MONTHS OR 12,000 MILES RESPONSE.

I REACH OVER AND PUSHED ON THE DOOR AND IT WAS NOT LATCHED. I GOT OUT AND WENT TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER AND REALIZE IT WOULD NOT LATCH.IT LOOKED AS THOUGH IT WAS SHUT THOUGH IT WAS NOT. HAD TO CALL MY HUSBAND TO COME AND CHECK IT OUT THEN WE HAD TO USE A BUNGEE CORD TO HOLD IT SHUT. I CALLED SERVICE AND HAD THEM TO CHECK IT OUT 7/17/2019 THEY INFORMED ME IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM THEY HAD BEEN HAVING WITH THE DOOR LATCH RECALL THOUGH MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED. THEY REPORTED IT TO FORD AND FORD STILL DID NOT WANT TO COVER THE EXPENSE OR COVER IT IN THE RECALL BECAUSE I HAD OVER 150,000 THOUSAND MILES AND NO EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS IS A ONE OWNER CALL. THIS SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD BE COVERED AND ALL MY DOOR LATCHES SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NOT COST TO ME. I DID OPEN A CAS NUMBER WITH FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS THOUGH THEY DIDN'T SEEM TOO CONCERNED, WHAT DOES MY MILEAGE OR WARRANTY HAVE TO DO WITH A UNSAFE DEFECTIVE PART THAT FORD IS AWARE OF? *DT *TP

MY VEHICLE IS HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR NOT GOING INTO PARK. LAST WEEK I GOT HOME PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I TRIED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK BUT THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT WAS STUCK IN THE DRIVE MODE. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO STOP MY CAR FROM ROLLING INTO MY HOUSE WAS BY USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS IS THE SECOND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS RECALL WITH THIS VEHICLE. PREVIOUSLY I HAD A RECALL WITH THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR LATCH. DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN ONE PARTICULAR DAY AND THE DOOR OPENS. MY PERSONAL OPINION AND BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE THE 2013 FORD FUSION IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HAS NOT BEEN MANUFACTURED PROPERLY.

SMELL OF EXHAUST IN CABIN WHEN HEAT WAS ON AT ALL TIMES.

MY DRIVER DOOR IS NOT LOCKING .. DO TO THE DOOR LATCH RECALL .. I HAVE NOT YET GOT A RECALL ON IT .. MY DOOR WILL OPEN WHILE DRIVING..

I LEFT AND CALLED FORD. I TOLD OF THE SITUATION AND SAID THIS IS DANGEROUS AND I WOULD HATE IF SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENED WHERE IT WOULD END UP IN A LAW SUIT OR ON THE NEWS. THE REP WHO WAS OBVIOUSLY IN ANOTHER COUNTRY AND I COULD BARELY UNDERSTAND, SAID SHE WAS GOING TO EXPEDITE THIS AND SEND IT TO MY DEALER'S SERVICE MANAGER AND I WAS TO CALL THE NEXT AFTERNOON. I CALLED WAS TRANSFERRED TO A VOICE MAIL WITH NO RESPONSE. I CALLED TWO DAYS LATER AND SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MGR WHO FOUND THE CASE BUT COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHEN WAS WRITTEN. HE SAID HE WOULD CALL ME BACK LATER WHICH HE DID AND TOLD ME THAT FORD WILL NOT COVER THIS. SO NOW I HAVE A CALL TO THE EXECUTIVE TEAM AND AM AWAITING A RESPONSE.

A MONTH LATER, MY RIGHT REAR PASSENGER DOOR DIDN'T WANT TO SHUT, BUT AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT FINALLY DID. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT CAME OPEN. I FOUGHT WITH MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO GET IT REPAIRED THE SAME DAY BECAUSE OF A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE 3 KIDS WHO SIT IN THE BACK SEAT WITH A DOOR THAT WILL NOT LATCH AND STAY CLOSED. THAT WAS MARCH. TODAY (AUGUST 30), THE LEFT REAR DOOR DECIDED TO DO THE SAME THING. THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIX IT UNTIL TOMORROW, WHICH IS EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS CONSIDERING THERE IS NOWHERE ELSE FOR MY CHILD TO SIT AND IT IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I OWN. I ALREADY PERFORMED THE RECALL BACK IN FEBRUARY AND IT SEEMS IT MADE THE PROBLEM WORSE CONSIDERING I HAD NO ISSUES WITH THE LATCHES BEFORE THE RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED.

MY 2013 FORD FUSION IS EXPERIENCING AN ISSUE WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM AND THE WINDOW CONTROLS. I HAVE LOST COMMUNICATION WITH THE 'FRONT CONTROL INTERFACE MODULE', 'DOOR CONTROL MODULE A', AND 'DOOR CONTROL MODULE B'. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, MY ECM DISPLAYS THE FOLLOWING CODES, P193E: A/C CLUTCH REQUEST SIGNAL, U0199: LOST COMMUNICATION WITH DOOR CONTROL MODULE A, U0200: LOST COMMUNICATION WITH DOOR CONTROL MODULE B, AND U0256: LOST COMMUNICATIONS FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE. THIS HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY, AND IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN MY CAR IS IN MOTION AND WHEN MY CAR IS STATIONARY. SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS WHEN I START MY CAR AND SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM DRIVING. TO BE CLEAR, I HAVE NO AIR CONDITIONING, NO VENTILATION, AND I CAN NOT ROLL DOWN MY WINDOWS. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IS TOWARDS 90 OR MORE DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THIS MEANS THE INTERIOR TEMPERATURE OF THE CARE GETS TO BE VERY HOT. IN MY EXPERIENCE, THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS ISSUE IS TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND THEN RECONNECT THEM BUT THIS ONLY OFFERS A TEMPORARY FIX TO THE PROBLEM.

POORLY DESIGNED SEAL AROUND BACK-UP CAMERA HOUSING ALLOWS MOISTURE INTO HOUSING, SENDS FAULTY SIGNAL TO ENGINE WHEN VEHICLE IS STARTED AND SHIFTED TO REVERSE ULTIMATELY SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN 100% OF TIME, BUT IT IS CONCERNING. USUALLY OCCURS DURING/AFTER RAIN, SNOW, OR HIGH HUMIDITY DAYS. THIS DESIGN FLAW ALSO DISABLES THE BRAKES, EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND POWER STEERING. VEHICLE DOES NOT TURN ON RIGHT AWAY AND STARTER CONTINUOUSLY CLICKS UNTIL VEHICLE COMPUTER RESPONDS TO START, KEY FAUB IS THE ONLY WAY I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE AFTER THIS EVENT OCCURS. SOMETIMES THE COMPUTER GETS SO JAMMED UP THAT I MUST COMPLETELY DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND HARD RESTART THE COMPUTER. WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURS THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE STOPPED AND WILL CONTINUOUSLY MOVE BACKWARDS UNTIL IT STOPS ON ITS OWN, IT HITS SOMETHING, OR THE VEHICLE CAN BE STARTED AGAIN. THIS DID HAPPEN TO ME WHILE I WAS PARKED ON A SLIGHT INCLINE AND MY CAR STOPPED AFTER IT ROLLED IN TO A PARKED CAR, LUCKILY NO DAMAGE OCCURED. AS SOMEONE WHO USED TO BE AN AIRBAG DESIGN ENGINEER I DEFINITELY BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. A MECHANIC AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM INFORMED ME THAT THIS ISSUE IS KNOWN TO FORD(HE FOUND THE INFORMATION ON HOW TO DIAGNOSE, REPAIR, AND WHAT PARTS TO BUY IN THE REPAIR DATABASE) AND I CALLED FORD TO CONFIRM THAT THEY DO KNOW THIS ISSUE. FORD INFORMED ME THAT THEY DO KNOW OF THE ISSUE, BUT IT IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN. THIS ISSUE COSTS OVER $800 TO FIX AT A DEALERSHIP. MY EXTENDED WARRENTY WON'T COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERED "WATER DAMAGE"

ALSO OFTEN TIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING WHEN ACCELERATING THE TRANSMISSION HAS A HUGE LAG IN IT AND SOMETIMES IT STICKS WITHOUT SHIFTING TO THE PROPER GEAR TO ACCELERATE, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO ACTUALLY MANUALLY SHIFT THE GEARS. AND IT GETS VERY ROUGH WHEN IT SLIPS AND SLIDES AND MAKES A BIG DROP WHICH ALSO SHAKES THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND IT ALSO IMPAIRS THE DRIVING PERFORMANCE. AND ANOTHER THING IS THE SEAT BELT, THE REAR MIDDLE SEAT OF MY VEHICLE WHEN INSTALLING A CHILD SAFETY SEAT THE MIDDLE SEAT BELT GOT ALL JAMMED UP AND WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL. I HAD TO REPLACE IT WITH AN AFTERMARKET SEAT BELT BECAUSE FORD DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT FOR FREE AND WANTED TO CHARGE ME UPWARDS OF $400 JUST FOR THE SEAT BELT THAT WASN'T MY FAULT THAT I GOT DAMAGED I JUST INSTALLED THE CHILD SEAT LIKE THE LOCAL POLICE SHOWED ME TO AND THEN ONCE I GOT IT OUT THE SEAT BELT IT'S NOT WORKING.

MY 2013 FORD FUSION HAS A PROBLEM EVERY TIME I REFUEL IT. 1) IT DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN I FINISHED PUMPING GAS, I HAVE TO KEEP TRYING TO TURN IT ON AND OR STEP ON GAS PEDDLE FOR IT TO TURN ON, ALSO I HAVE TO HAVE MY AC OFF CAUSE I GET THIS HORRIBLE SMELL AND AT ONE POINT SAW FUMES COMING OUT FROM MY AIR VENTS WHICH I THEN SUDDENLY TURN OFF THE AC BUT MY VEHICLE HAD ALSO TURNED OFF BY IT SELF. 2) IT HAS TURNED OFF TWICE WHILE I DRIVE OFF FROM THE GAS STATION, ON THE SAFE SIDE IT TURNED OFF BEFORE I EVEN MADE IT TO THE STREET/ROAD. I THEN HAD A RECALL ON IT AND TOOK IT FOR SERVICE FOR SOMETHING INVOLVING THE DOOR HANDLES AT THAT TIME I REPORTED MY PROBLEM TO A FORD MECHANIC/PERSONNEL AND THE GENTLE MEN ADVISED ME HE WILL NOT BE REPLACING THE PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS NOT ON THE RECALL AND IT WOULD HAVE TO BE PAYED FROM MY POCKET, WHICH I DONT HAVE THE BUDGET FOR IT, AND 3) WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ABOUT A 15 MILE DRIVE FROM NEIGHBORING CITY, MY VEHICLE HAD LOST POWER AND STARTED SLOWING DOWN AT WHICH POINT I REALIZED IT HAD TURNED OFF ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED OF 50-60MPHS WHILE MY SHIFT WAS IN DRIVE AND MY KEY WAS TURNED IN THE ON POSITION. THIS WAS AT NIGHT TIME SINCE I WORK THE AFTERNOON I THEN SLOWED DOWN TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY AND TURNED IT BACK ON WITH OUT A PROBLEM, THE FOLLOWING DAY IT DID NOT DO THE SAME THING AND AS OF 12/19/2017, I HAVE SEEN REPORT OF THE FORD EXPLORER WITH SIMILARITIES OF THE SMELL BUT DID NOT FIND OF THE FORD FUSION WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THIS ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING THE OTHER DAY 09/01/2017 MY CAR DID THE SAME THING AND WAS SHOWING IT WAS OVERHEATING WITHOUT WARNING AND NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME AGAIN THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE ISSUE OUT OF POCKET WHICH IS UNFAIR SINCE THE RECALL IS NOT SOMETHING I HAVE CONTROL OVER.

ON FEB. 10, 2016, DEFECTIVE DOOR LATCHES ON MY 2013 FORD FUSION HYBRID WERE REPLACED AT WALKER FORD/CLEARWATER, FL DUE TO A RECALL NOTICE. ON AUG. 24, 2017, THE DOOR LATCH ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR FAILED. THE SAME DEALER REPLACED THE FAILED LATCH ON AUG. 26, 2017. I WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT UNDER RECALL AND IS OUTSIDE THE 12 MONTH WARRANTY THAT I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR COSTS. WHEN I STATED THAT I WOULD REPORT THE FAILED LATCH TO THE NHTSA GIVEN THE VARIOUS RECALLS DUE TO FORD DOOR LATCH DEFECTS, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID HE WOULD CHECK WITH HIS MANAGER ABOUT WAIVING THE COST OF REPAIRS AND HAS NOT YET CHARGED ME. ONLY THE ONE DOOR LATCH WAS REPLACED. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS USED TO REMEDY THE PRIOR RECALL ARE ALSO DEFECTIVE. THE DOOR LATCH FAILED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AWAY FROM HOME, WHILE I WAS RUNNING ERRANDS.

ONCE I WENT BY MY CAR THEY TOLD ME THE RESULT OF THE DIAGNOSIS AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THERE WAS NO COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE BCM AND THE RTM; BCM IS THE PART WHERE THE FUSES ARE AND THE RTM IS THE RADIO TRANSMITTER MODULE, AND WHAT I HAVE TO BUY IS THE RTM WHICH WOULD COST $ 945.83, I WANT TO CLARIFY THAT WITH MY RADIO I HAVE NO PROBLEM SO I I TOLD THE PERSON WHO WAS THERE ... WHY IF IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM FOR LACK OF MAINTENANCE OF MY PART AND I DO NOT HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY RADIO OR MY TIRES OR SENSORS, BECAUSE I HAVE TO PAY AS MUCH MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS INTERNAL AND FOR A CAR WITH LESS THAN 5 YEARS OF EXISTENCE ... THIS PERSON ONLY TOLD ME THAT FOR THAT YOU SHOULD BUY MORE GUARANTEE BUT I FEEL IT IS UNFAIR BECAUSE I AM STILL PAYING THE CAR, AND NOT FOR LACK OF MAINTENANCE ON MY PART AND ARE PIECES THAT MAYBE THEY USE OF POOR QUALITY .. I HOPE THEY HELP ME OR ADVISE ME THEN NOR THE ALARM OF MY CAR CAN ACTIVATE, ANYWAY I WILL FIX IT BUT I FEEL THAT IT IS A LOT OF MONEY THAT I SHOULD NOT PAY.

2013 FORD FUSION ENGINE ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH WITH MY HUSBAND AND SON. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED AND WOULD NOT STOP. I PUMPED THE BREAKS , WHEN I REALIZED THAT WAS NOT WORKING I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BREAK ALL THE WAY. THE CAR FINALLY STARTED TO SLOW DOWN BUT WOULD NOT COMPLETELY AND THE ENGINE WAS STILL IN ACCELERATION. WHEN I WAS ABLE TO SLOW IT DOWN TO A SAFE ENOUGH SPEED, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT TO A DEALERSHIP 2 MILES AWAY WHERE IT HAS BEEN THERE SINCE. THE DEALERSHIP IS GREAT, ITS FORD CORPORATE THAT IS THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY RECALL THAT NEEDS ACTION RIGHT AWAY. WE HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR OVER 2 WEEKS. THE DEALERSHIP AND FORD CORPORATE STATED THEY HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. FORD CORPORATE HAS WALKED THROUGH STEPS WITH THE TECHNICIANS TO TRY AND FIX THE ISSUE. THEY HAVE REPLACED MANY PARTS AND FAILED AT EVERY ATTEMPT. THEY STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG AND REFUSE TO ACCOMMODATE US IN ANY WAY. I CANT EVEN GET A RETURN CALL FROM FORD CORPORATE. TIME FOR A LAWYER. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE DRIVING THIS CAR.

TAKATA RECALL. CAN I GET IT FIXED ? ALSO SOMETHING WITH MY DOOR.

WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY 2 HOURS FROM HOME AND I HAD A WARNING LIGHT COME ON, ENGINE COOLANT TEMPTRESS OVERHEATED. SO ME AND MY HUSBAND PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE, WE HAD COOLANT.WE SAT FOR ABOUT 10 MINS TO BE SAFE. AND PROCEEDED DOWN THE HIGHWAY. AFTER 2 MINS WE HAD ANOTHER WARNING LIGHT COME ON STEERING SYSTEM FAILURE. AT THIS POINT HE COULDN'T MOVE THE WHEEL SO WE PULLED OVER AGAIN AND AS SOON AS WE STOPPED BLACK SMOKE CAME IN THE VENTS AND UP THE WINDSHIELD. AS WE OPEN OUR DOORS THERE IS FLAMES COMING IN THE DOOR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WE QUICKLY EVACUATED THE VEHICLE AND CALLED 911.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HIS FORD FUSION INTO THE DRIVEWAY OF OUR HOME WHEN THE PASSENGER CAR SIDE DOOR OPENED. SINCE THEN PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. I RESEARCHED THIS A BIT AND FOUND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A LARGE AMOUNT OF RECALLS ON THE DOORS BECOMING UNLATCHED WHILE DRIVING FOR THIS 2013 FORD FUSION BUT WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE FORD DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL.

ON LOCAL ROAD, VEHICHLE HESITATES WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS. WHEN I GET TO A STOP LIGHT IT SHUDDERS THEN STALLS. THIS OCCURS FREQUENTLY FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS AS OF THIS ENTRY DATE.MY VEHICLE HAS UNDER 53K MILES AND THE DEALER SAYS THE PART AND FIX IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. ITS CALLED A LO PRESSURE GAS SENSOR I BELIEVE. IF ITS ATTACHED TO THE GAS TANK THEN HOW COULD IT NOT BE UNDER WARRANTY WITH UNDER 60K MILES STANDARD COVERAGE.IS THIS STANDARD FOR ALL DEALERSHIPS WITH WARRANTY COVERAGE OR LACK THERE OF FOR THIS PART.

AT SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT OR COASTING TO A SLOW SPEED AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN THE ENGINE JUST DIES LIKE IT RAN OUT OF GAS. YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR. YOU THEN HAVE TO RESTART THE CAR. AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT STARTS JUST FINE. IT'S RANDOM BUT BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE DEALER SAID IT'S PROBABLY THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY A VERY WELL KNOWN ISSUE ACCORDING TO POSTINGS. PART IS $700 AND LABOR $200 FOR A PART THAT IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY FOR OTHER FORD FUSION BUT NOT THE ECOBOOST! . NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA) OPENED ANINVESTIGATIONINTO SUDDEN SURGES AND POWER LOSS IN FORD ENGINES. BY MARCH OF 2014, FORD AGREED TO A MASSIVE 'CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM' THAT EXTENDED THE ETB WARRANTY TO 10 YEARSOR150,000 MILES FOR CERTAIN VEHICLES.

2013 FORD FUSION SE 1.6L 39,000 MILES SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. BARELY ABLE TO TURN AROUND AND GET BACK -- LUCKILY ONLY TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM HOME. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF, THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY. THE NEXT DAY, BOTH PASSENGER SIDE DOORS PROCEEDED NOT TO CLOSE DUE TO FAULTY LATCHES, SO WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER AND TURNS OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE LATCHES (FYI, WE WERE IN JUST TWO WEEKS PREVIOUSLY FOR SERVICE WITHOUT ANY MENTION OF THE RECALL -- ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE, AS WE HAD OUR DOG IN THE BACKSEAT, AND WE HAD TO USE HER LEASH TO TIE THE DOOR SHUT SO SHE WOULD FLY OUT OF THE DOOR THAT WOULDN'T CLOSE). WE THEN ASKED THEM TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIND ANYTHING OUT ABOUT THE WRENCH LIGHT. DEALER SERVICE CENTER SAID THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR $700. AFTER RESEARCHING, IT TURNS OUT FORD HAS ADMITTED PROBLEMS CONCERNING THIS ISSUE AND ALLOWED FOR A ONE TIME REPAIR FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. HOWEVER, BOTH SERVICE CENTER AND REGIONAL MANAGEMENT HAVE CLAIMED THAT OUR CAR DOES NOT MEET REQUIREMENTS BASED ON VIN. HOW CAN THIS BE? IF WE HAVE THE ISSUE, THEN THE ISSUE IS PRESENT IN OUR CAR. THIS PART ISN'T DUE TO BE SERVICED UNTIL 75,000 MILES PER MANUFACTURER SUGGESTION. WE CALLED THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE HOTLINE WHICH SENT US AROUND AND AROUND AND BASICALLY IT COMES DOWN TO WHATEVER THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER TELLS US. THE PART IS SO BACK ORDERED, PRESUMABLY BECAUSE THERE IS A WIDE-SPREAD ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM (ACCORDING TO A LOCAL FORD PARTS DEPARTMENT MANAGER) - THAT THE PRICE OF THIS PART HAS SKYROCKETED. MAKING US THE PROFIT CENTERS FOR A KNOWN, BORDERLINE RECALL/SAFETY PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN ADDRESSED IS ABSURD AND UNBELIEVABLE TO ME AT THIS POINT. NO WE HAVE GONE FROM LOVING OUR CAR THAT HAS GIVEN US ZERO PROBLEMS FOR THREE YEARS TO NEVER BUY A FORD. EVER.

AFTER A SEARCH ONLINE I DISCOVERED THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL FOR MY CAR, WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO REPORT IT AND TAKE IT IN THEY STATED MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST AND I WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT FORD CO. I SPOKE WITH FORD CO. THEY INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE MY CARE IN FOR A "DIAGNOSTIC CHECK" SINCE I COULD NOT PROVE OVER THE PHONE SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. I ONCE AGAIN CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD TO HAVE MY CAR FIXED AND PAY $300 I WOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE IT READY THE FOLLOWING DAY BUT FOR A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK IT WOULD BE THREE WEEKS.

THE DOOR LATCH IS NOT ALLOWING DOOR TO STAY SHUT. UPON RESEARCH WE FOUND THERE IS A RECALL ON DOOR LATCH OF 2013 FORD FUSION MANUFACTURED AT HERMOSILLO PLANT AND DURING CERTAIN DATES IN 2012. WE TAPED OUR DOOR SHUT AND WENT TO DEALERSHIP THEY STATED THAT OUR VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL. I INFORMED THEM THAT OUR CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN HERMOSILLO PLANT IN 2013 AND IT FITS THE RECALL DESCRIPTION. HOWEVER THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT EVEN THOUGH IT IS A RECALL. THEY WANT US TO PUT UP THE 400.00 TO PAY FOR IT WHEN THEIR COMPANY HAS A RECALL ON DOOR LATCHES. WE HAD ANOTHER ISSUE WITH THE COOLANT AND AGAIN THEY HAD A RECALL ON THE COOLANT SYSTEM AS WELL BUT OUR CAR IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL ALTHOUGH AGAIN IT FIT THE RECALL DESCRIPTION TO A T. WE PAID TO HAVE THAT FIXED BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT WE HAVE TO PAY OUT OF OUR OWN POCKET ON A RECALL THE COMPANY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING. WE DON'T HAVE 400.00 TO FORK OUT AND WE NEED IT FIXED AS WE HAVE 3 CHILDREN THAT WE TAKE TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY AND WE ARE STRUGGLING TO FIND OUT WHERE WE CAN GET THE MONEY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WHEN WE FEEL IT SHOULD BE FORD TO FIX IT.

I'M QUITE CONCERNED,AND THINK IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.THE DEALER SHIP AND FORD TELL ME THAT THEY ARE WORKING ON IT.YET HERE IT IS 10 MONTHS ,AND IT STILL IS NOT FIXED.

1. LANE KEEPING DEPARTURE SYSTEM PRESENTS A DANGER TO CYCLISTS & PEDESTRIANS. NOW THAT I AM AWARE, I TURN THE SYSTEM OFF; HOWEVER, THE STEERING WHEEL PUTS UP A GOOD FIGHT WHEN I TRIED TO PROVIDE THE CYCLISTS ROOM--AN UNNECESSARY ISSUE THAT COULD OF CAUSED SERIOUS BODILY HARM OR DEATH. 2. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT GET THE MPG AS PROMISED ON THE STICKER: A GREAT DEAL OF UNNECESSARY MONEY WAS LOST. 3. THE ELECTRICAL A/C UNIT NO LONGER GENERATES COLD AIR, BUT THE FAN STILL RUNS.

Mileage: 6,786

PURCHASED CAR ON NOV 2 2013 RETURNED TO DEALER 31 DAYS LATER DUE TO RECALL. HAVE REQUESTED BUY BACK FROM FORD. WHO WOULD PUT THERE GRANDCHILDREN AT RISK IN THIS CAR WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF A FIRE? I FEEL THAT THEY HAVE KNOWN THE PROBLEM EXISTED BUT FAILED TO ADMIT IT UNTIL SOME CARS CAME BACK. JUST WANT FORD TO BUY CAR BACK AND WILL LOOK AT ANOTHER MODEL. *TR
