I purchased this vehicle, back in 2021 from a small car lot.. Car runs great, for the most part, but, every once and a while, the car would stall, mid-driving, then it would start back up. I was like, okay, maybe it was a hiccup...So, now, lets fast forward to 2024, it starts stalling 2-3 times a day. Only thing, my check engine light isn't on. So, when I took it to the local auto shop, they couldn't read a ny codes with the machine. Took it to another shop. They were like its the cam sensors, had them replaced, drove home, car continued to stall..This is definitely a Ford issue, fix my SH*T!!!!!!!!

I bought my 2015 Ford Fusion in Oakdale, CA from Haidlen Ford. We are the second owners. We bought it in November 2018, and have only put 1500 miles on it. My check engine light came on, so we went Haidlens. They told us the engine was shot. Water is leaking into the cylinder. They told us we could drive it, but just around town. It was kind of jerking so I told my husband. He drove it about 10 miles, about 55 mph, the engine dropped power down to about 35 mph. This is unsafe, life threatening. We currently owe $10,000 on this car plus fixing it at a cost of $6,000 dollars. Ford will not fix their bad engine. Please force Ford to issue a recall before someone dies.

Is anyone else having serious issues with the early direct fuel injection (GDI) system with the eco boost? I have reoccurring fuel rail fault codes P0087 & P219A and the high pressure pump is grinding down the cam creating dangerous driving conditions which require $3600 worth of repairs. The first time it happened at 29,000 miles, it was covered by warranty, now it happened again at 54,000 miles. My warranty expired while in statewide lockdown, so Ford denied assistance with this systemic problem. The GDI system was rushed to market to meet the MPG mandates issued by Congress and never tested for safety. Multi-port fuel injection is much more reliable. I have filed a complaint with NHTSA.

I was over 2 hours away from home when my Fusion started vibrating violently on the freeway and the engine light came on. It was pretty scary. Long story short the dealer told me I needed a new engine. Really annoying / frustrating when I had purchased the vehicle brand new in 2015 and purchased the 100k maintenance package. I was really good at maintaining the vehicle using only dealer maintenance. Unfortunately I did not purchase the extended warranty, so when the engine blew at 86k I was pretty much out of luck. After complaining FORD paid a portion of the long block engine but that just wasn't enough. I am stuck with a vehicle that is worthless. It doesn't ride smooth (like it did when I first purchased it).

I was driving my 2015 Ford Fusion Titanium down the road when all of a sudden the instrument panel went out, followed by the radio, followed by the A/C and the engine and a driver alert popped up saying "Transmission not in park". Well, no it wasn't in park because I was driving!! I was able to put the car in park safely (this time) and restart the car with no issue. The car has been taken to the Ford dealership where it was purchased twice now. They have tried to duplicate the issue and have not been successful in doing so. They have told me to drive it until it does it again. I'm sorry I do not feel comfortable doing this. You see, I commute daily to and from work that is approximately 85 miles round trip. Most of which is in heavy traffic. I do not feel I should have to be a statistic for Ford Motor Company in order for something to be done. I don't care if you have to take my car back and take it out of commission to use in your test facility to be proactive in saving lives! Too many have died waiting for the airbag recall. I refuse to put my life, my unborn child's life, or the lives or innocent people lives' in danger simply because you can't duplicate the issue or find a problem. Be a mechanic, not a code reader!! I have had two separate independent dealerships tell me it sounds like the throttle body but the dealership that has the car refused to change it because it that wasn't the problem, then Ford wouldn't reimburse them for it. So that tells me their reimbursement is more important than MY safety and the safety of others. I'm ready to hire an attorney if Ford isn't going to step up and do something about this issue. I'm not just waiting for a light to come on here. You are asking me to play Russian roulette with my car and others. HOW IS THAT EVEN A POSSIBILITY???? As I was sitting in the dealership waiting for the rental car, I noticed a sign that statement "Peace of Mind" when driving a Ford. I call BS.

This is my 5th or more time reporting this issue to FORD Customer Care...when I bought this car there was nothing wrong with it, couple of months pass by and I noticed that my car completely stalls/shuts off unexpectedly throughout the months while a message pops up on the dashboard saying "Transmission Not In Park". So I stop the car and shut the car off then turn it back on, than the message disappears and the car is back into it's normal self for about a month, than it does the same exact thing. So the second time I notice this occurrence and that time I take it to the dealership so they could have a look at it, they do, and say "We can't find anything wrong". The third time this happened I call Customer Service and explain to them what's happening with the vehicle and they tell me to take it back to the dealership so they can have a look at it. I do the same process all over again and they say, "We can't find anything wrong". The most recent occurrence was today and I call Customer Service and they still TELL ME the same thing take it to the dealership to have it diagnosed, I refused. BUT the worst part about it was that I drive for Uber and had a passenger with me in the car the same time that it had happened. I almost crashed into another car in front of me because the breaks were locked and I trouble stopping car until the engine completely died out, so I went into the other lane to make sure I don't hit anything and a pedestrian crossing the street at the same time my car was approaching luckily nobody was hurt and I was able to restart the car. So I don't know what else to do with this occurrence every month.

2015 Ford Fusion with approximately 110-120,000 miles on it. When at a complete stop, car will intermittently sputter and not accelerate, despite pressing gas pedal. I need to maneuver to the side of the road, place vehicle in park, and restart the car. Occasionally it will do this 2 times in a row, but mostly only once, then will drive as normal. Coincidentally, the coolant is frequently low with no obvious leak. It was taken to a Ford dealership as well as several local mechanics, and no codes were found. It is a huge safety concern as there is no warning, no check engine light, nothing that indicates the car may not have power and will stall when trying to go through a light or stop sign.
It is difficult to maneuver off the road and I am concerned about the car dying in the middle of an intersection. In the past 12 months in addition to this, the temperature gauge will suddenly spike to extreme hot temperatures and I have to pull over and have car towed to a mechanic only to find there is "nothing wrong." This last time, I pulled over, and the car began shaking and stopped. Mechanic says it is a blown head gasket, most likely from the coolant problem (that nobody could find a code for or diagnose). I am now looking at a $2000+ bill, and the Ford dealership says there is nothing they can do about it.
