I was driving down the highway and my engine lost power. My car would not accelerate. I could not even go the speed limit. The dealer had to replace the throttle body. Ford was changing these out through their own recall but that ended years ago. This problem is very popular over the Ford models and could wind up killing somebody when the engine cuts out. Ford is not standing behind the safety of their customers and I feel the NHTSA needs to step in and make this a mandatory recall. Someone is going to die from this and it is all across all their makes.

While attempting to pull off after starting my car (vehicle stationary). The gear shift would read park on the dash and the gear shift would not change regardless of me moving it. After calling my mechanic the inspection showed the bushing came off. I received a letter from Ford a few days before about the potential warning of the bushing possibly deteriorating. I have spoken with multiple Ford reps and have been unable to get an appointment after being told that with my car being effected now, my process of being seen would be expedited. I was also told about having received compensation for a rental or loaner car while my car is unable to drive. I think Ford is giving me the run around until they can find a solution but that does not change the fact that I have been effected today. Richmond Ford Lincoln refused to service me and take my case number while belittling corporate the entire way. I also received the incorrect name from one employee. This recall process has been excruciating and as a Ford consumer this being my second Ford. I am debating if the company even values me, I definitely can't tell after continually asking for an update. The last representative I spoke with said it isn't his department and someone would reach out to me. He said that the day before. I don't know what my next steps are but Ford is not assisting during this recall situation.

Coolant leaks into engine intermittently while driving the car shook and vibrated. Speedee mechanic found the issue and told me take it to Ford as it is the same issue as Ford recalls on Fusion, and could cause a fire. Took it Ford, first they said no coolant leak. A week later I took it back then they said yes coolant is leaking into engine and I have to pay for a new engine.

When I got home from picking my friend's daughter up from school yesterday, I pulled into the garage and tried to place my vehicle in park. As my shifter went past reverse it turned on the back up camera on and stayed in reverse even though my shifter was in park. I didn't know what to do, I couldn't let off the brake because it continued to back up when I did, so I put the emergency brake on and turned the car off. This could have ended a lot worse. If it would have happened while I was picking my friend's daughter up from school, there were kids everywhere and I might not have been able to stop my vehicle. My car is a 2016 Ford Fusion titanium, Ford issued a recall numbered 18S20 for shifter cable bushings going bad in Ford Fusion between 2013 and 2016. I called Ford but apparently my cars VIN doesn't qualify for the recall even though the exact issue that they issued the recall for, happened to my car and my car is between those years listed. The shifter cable came off and didn't allow my car to go into park. The car was stationary when this occurred.

While in motion (65 mph) the vehicles electronic throttle body failed, causing the vehicle to enter an emergency mode in which the rpms were fixed at approximately 1.2K. The ability to accelerate was lost completely and the vehicle had to be coasted off of the highway. An immediate restart of the engine did not remedy the issue, but after leaving the vehicle off for approximately 5 minutes on the side of the highway the issue was resolved, allowing for full use of the vehicle. After the incident the check engine light remained illuminated and the vehicle was brought to the Ford dealership for service. It was discovered that the throttle body had "failed" and needed to be replaced. I know that Ford has had an issue on older year throttle bodies and that a recall was issued for those. I am hoping that these newer vehicles will be looked at, and if the issue is still prevalent the recall changed to include them.

In may of 2017 my transmission was causing my car to jerk forward severely when ever I tried to put on the gas. A Ford dealership replaced/fixed my transmission which was under warrantee at the time. Now, less then 2 years later and 22,000 miles later the exact same thing is happening again. I brought it to a machinic who said to fix it, they would have to basically do the exact same thing the Ford dealership did to fix it because the transmission is shot! now I am just out of warrantee I have to foot the bill. It was bad enough needing a new transmission just a year after getting the car, but then needing another new transmission less then 2 years later is not right? Ford had been no help!

When I put gas in the car, it is very hard to start. I have to pump the gas and then rev the engine to get it to stay on. If I leave it in park, without reving the engine, it will stall out. Once I get it into drive and start moving, the problem subsides. The only other time I notice it, is if I am idling on a hill. At that point, it will stall without constant feathering of the gas pedal. This seems to be consistent with the current recall on some of the 2016 Ford Fusion, but my VIN doesnt appear on the recall.
