The bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission detached from the transmission on 10/22/2018. The defect caused the transmission to be in a gear state (reverse) different than the gear shift position selected by me (drive). My daughter and I were in the car, and the issue caused the vehicle to hit a bush at my daughter's preschool, because when I hit the gas, the car went backwards instead of forwards into a parking spot in the parking lot. I was able to brake and engage the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident, and the vehicle experienced no body damage. I googled the issue, and with my wife, was able to manually change the gear in the engine compartment to drive, and I drove the vehicle to our trusted mechanic about a mile away. My google research indicated that some 2013 Ford Fusion were subject to recall for the issue, so I called the local dealership (roush Ford) to determine whether my vehicle was subject to the recall. The dealership, and later Ford confirmed by phone that my vehicle, with its VIN, was not subject to the recall. The Ford case number for my request is cas16129095. Since my issue is the same as that for other 2013 Fusion subject to recall, my vehicle should be subject to recall and reimbursement from Ford. I need my vehicle for work, however, so my mechanic, valentino's, is repairing the vehicle today for around $350, including parts and labor. I expect to be later reimbursed for these repairs by Ford.

"broken shifter cables recall" I parked my car and attempted to go into a I went to put my car in reverse and the gear shift would not move from park. The dashboard read "transmission not in park", but the gear shift was in fact in "park". the dashboard listed the car as being in "neutral". I was able to reset a button and get the car in gear, but the car would only move forward. It will not move in reverse. I took the car to an auto mechanic and was informed that the shifter cable bushing needed to be replaced. I took the car to the Ford dealership and they also informed me that the shifter cable bushing was broken and need to be replaced. There is an active recall for this exact same issue, on the exact same make and model of my vehicle. However, my VIN number was excluded from the recall. I believe this was an oversight.

The parked vehicle (2013 Ford Fusion) was facing northeast (on the side street of my home) when I entered attempting to move it from the street into my driveway. As I made a slight U-turn, I noticed my dad had fallen onto the grass at the curb where he was sitting in his wheelchair with my mom. I then put the vehicle (now facing southwest) into park, left the diver's side door ajar and walked across the street to help him up. After doing so, I noticed the car was rolling towards us. I tried to hop into the car or at least grab the wheel to deter it from running my myself and my parents over. However, the car knocked me back onto the curb and rolled over me. Needless to say, I suffered very serious injuries. The conditions were a dry road on a clear, sunny day. I do have a police report but do not wish to upload it at this time.

Transmission issue I had my Ford Fusion recall repair done on the clutch assembly. The dealership determined my transmission needed to be replaced as well but said it was not related the other recall. My clutch and flywheel were damaged as well. I don't see any way how the transmission damage is not related to the clutch and flywheel when they're all connected in the drive train. I'm sure I've not the first person to have this issue. The transmission constantly whines no matter how fast I drive.
