March 7 2019 I turned my car on noticed my heat was not on and my seat did not move, turned my car off and on still wasn't working, touch screen wasn't working, passenger side windows didn't work the driver side did, there wasn't anything showing that there was anything wrong. Drove home without any heat, when I got home I turned it off and on, then everything worked fine. March 10, I was driving no warning lights, my car just shut off driving through my apartment on the way to store then it turned back on. Then I drove for a couple hours went to another store left my daughter in the car with the dog and some music then it said that it was going to shut down to conserve battery, my car was dead couldn't turn over I had to get a jump to get it to start. Took it to a shop March 11 they said there was nothing wrong with my car and there was no codes.

Driving steady state on normal state highway road surface in dry daylight conditions, the vehicle began chiming and displaying a long sequence of error messages and mils. After a few seconds, speedometer zeroed and cluster lost power. Center stack then lost power. The vehicle had no exterior lights, no horn. Vehicle "believes" ignition is off, therefore no airbags. After pulling over and a key off/ key on, vehicle was normal for a couple minutes, then repeated this problem. Vehicle has been to 2 different dealers for this intermittent issue.

So I have a 2014 Fusion, bought pre-owned currently with about 16,000 miles. I recently noticed that my car when accelerating pauses to accelerate. This is especially noticeable trying to go from 0-60 as fast as possible. Also after slowing down and hitting the gas pedal it almost feels like no power is being applied to the engine momentarily. I was stationary, then in motion below 10mph crossing an intersection on a city street and to my right a vehicle was doing 40+ in a 25 and flew over a hill and almost hit me. When I went to accelerate to get out of his way, this is when I noticed the problem, I slammed the gas and didn't move until a literal second later, luckily he slammed his brakes and nothing happened. Reason unknown, however after experimenting in a safe environment some more, I noticed that it only really happens in drive, not sport. Although it is an automatic, they split up these sections and probably different "chips" that dictate these controls. It could be a delay between pressing the pedal and receiving power. Unfortunately, I cannot drive the vehicle and record at the same time as I don't have a safe way of doing so, and it looks like you don't allow video to be uploaded anyway. The vehicle currently has 27,000, model SE, 2.5L engine, semi-automatic transmission. Again, does delay in acceleration in drive, not sport.

April 13th, 2018 approximately 4:45pm. Picked up my kids from school get back into my car, start ignition and start driving home from school. Air conditioner stops working, locks lock, windows won't go down. There is no way to get air into the car.I took the car to peoria Ford on April 16, 2018 and they had the car 2 weeks and 1 day and replaced the electronic board. I received the car back on Tuesday May 1st. I drove the car on Sunday May 6th to take my kids to their fathers house. The air conditioning once again went out while driving, doors automatically locked and windows wouldn't roll down. The temperature was 101 when this happened. I drove it home and it sat in my driveway until Monday, May 7th. It had to be towed to the dealership as it was to hot to drive that day and the air conditioning would not work, windows wouldn't roll down and doors would lock upon driving. The radio also gets stuck into high volume so you have to turn the blue tooth on to get silence. This also happened early August 2017 and the engine was replaced in September/October 2017. This is a dangerous situation as the only way to get air to me and my children is to stop the car and get out. This does not work when you are in highway traffic. This happens both stationary and driving.

The wiring to the digital screen has shorted out somehow now I have to go spend a lot of money on a 3 year old car with 72,000 miles on

- Dyersburg, TN, USA

While attempting to charge the parked vehicle in my garage, I plugged in the 110-volt charger that came with the car into the wall before plugging it into the vehicle. It sparked and nearly caused a fire. Upon inspection, it was clear the plug was overheating over time and caused a short in the wiring adjacent to the plug. The oem of the unit was made by clipper creek. I reported this issue to clipper creek as well.

My 2014 Fusion had about 47,000 miles when it suddenly lost power to all but the ignition and lights. After attempting to find the reason at 2 dealerships it was found that the wiring harness that leads to the BCM module was improperly installed and it basically broke. The wiring harness was on back order over 35 days since apparently there are many more of these problems on the 2014 Fusion assembled at this plant. The repair for this Ford-built issue was $2,655.03 and Ford basically told me to stick it when asked for a rental or loaner car while my car was immobilized for 40 days. Auto rental was another $1,000 for the month. Ford cs reps in dearborn basically scoffed at any attempt to have mercy on me and increased the part price since it was hard to find. I'm sure there are many more immobilized Fusion's, or many that soon will be. The car also has an alignment issue that cannot be corrected even though the car has never been struck. It "feathers" the rear tires quickly and I've gone through 2 sets of 50,000 mile tires in 30,000 miles. Never would I tell anyone to own such a fine vehicle.

- Toledo, OH, USA

This car just fell apart at 130000 miles. The purge valve failed 3 times. The ABS speed sensor pigtail failed. The entire PCM unit board shorted un repairable. The map sensor failed. Ford has charged me 3 times for diagnosis as failures were less then 4 days apart so towed back each time. A PCM complete failure on a car not even 4 years old with only 130000 miles is an issue as they want around $1000 for replacement when it should not be failing. Add in all the previous recalls this car has been a lemon from the start. I am a long time Ford buyer but this has soured me. The ABS pig tail triggered all safety lights drops power steering and poor braking.

I purchased a new-to-me 2014 Ford Fusion from germain Ford in columbus Ohio on 2/2/18. On the 2nd day I had the car there was a light snow storm, a few inches, I am a wonderful driver with a clean record. I went to pull out of my street and I lost control of the car. I thought it was ice until I stopped at a light & my wheels started spinning and I could hardly maintain control. I felt like the steering wheel was taking over and I was fighting it as I kept sliding. This went on the entire two miles to work. I'd never been more terrified. I've driven in snow and ice for 20 years and this is my 6th Ford and I had never been so afraid of a car. I thought maybe it was a one time issue, maybe it really was just a strange one time thing? but on Sunday 3/25/18 it was raining here in columbus and I was driving about 40-45 mph on a wet road and my car started acting like it did in the snow, but this time I lost total control of the car tc came on and once again I could not control my car and the wheel jerked to the right causing us to spin out of control. The back passenger tire hit a curb, we spun around and the front passenger side hit the curb and we went into a grassy area coming pretty close to a pole and an apartment bldg. I ended up with a flat tire, bent rim, I needed an alignment, the paint is scratched under my car, and I need a new baring on the front drivers side. Also - I found out there was around 5 inches of water in my trunk due to a broken seal. I had the car towed to the dealer & I begged them to figure out what's wrong. Right now they claim nothing is wrong but they are fixing the leak & the damage. I paid for a new tire. I am beyond terrified to drive the car again. I have never lost control of a car before and now I have in this car - twice in less than a month. Something is very very wrong. Thank you for any help or suggestions. I just want a safe car.

I had leased a 2014 Ford Fusion back in 2014, had every intention in purchasing the vehicle, a couple weeks before my lease was to end I was experiencing electrical/defect issues in September 2016, all my locks, air/heat, windows would shut off as I was driving and it was slowly draining my battery. I made dozens and dozens of phone calls to Ford corporation/customer service asking for help, and informing them the vehicle was not safe to drive (mailed them evidence of my issues). Took it to the dealership at tom holzer Ford, after many attempts made to repair my vehicle they still could not repair my vehicle properly, I spent $400 to repair my vehicle and I was still left with the same issues listed above. When I arrived at the dealership for the third time they tried to change their story and claim I had a new problem to avoid paying to have my vehicle fixed and avoid using the "good will warranty". instead I was left draining my savings to repair my vehicle and miss work since my vehicle was unsafe to drive. I also noticed other customers who had a 2014 Ford Fusion had the same issues as I did, and instead of contacting National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, they went on carcomplaints.com. Please view my attached documents relating to the issues that I had with my 2014 Ford Fusion. If possible I would like a investigation made for a possible recall, and fines and penalties imposed if needed. Lastly, Ford had sold my 2014 Ford Fusion to another buyer, I had no idea if the buyer was disclosed of my issues that I had. On myvehiclehistory.com, it states that "no problems" were reported which is false, since I submitted all my evidence to Ford corporation and nothing was done.

When turning on the car and actually taking off driving the car will stop/ shut off all by itself and I have to restart it, while driving. The steering wheel will pull or jerk while driving. I have had my car looked at twice. Changed the battery and still can't figure out why it does it.
