Fusion

  • 121,000 miles
The contact owns a 2014 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving up an incline, the brake pedal was depressed when he felt a pop on his foot from the brake pedal; then without warning the brakes failed to operate as needed. The brake pedal then went to the floor. The contact then stated that he had to apply pressure while depressing the brake pedal but failed to completely stop the vehicle. The contact also stated that he exited the vehicle to check the front of the vehicle when he noticed that brake fluid was leaking from the vehicle in a puddle. The vehicle was towed to the residence and then towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the brake line hose failed and needed to be replaced. Additionally, the contact stated that on several occasions he heard a putting noise, and the vehicle would start to shake. The contact also stated that each time he refueled, the vehicle failed to immediately restart. The contact would then rev the engine for the vehicle to accelerate then the RPM would decrease and the vehicle would lose motive power and stall. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that he performed a diagnostic test on the vehicle and determined that the canister purge valve solenoid had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 121,000.
