2019 Ford Fusion. Just stopped running while driving. Everything just quit working. Took to shop they replaced alternator and battery. After driving a month car did exact same thing again. I think this is more than an alternator problem.

Recall issued 6/23 23S33- Over 7 months and Ford has NOT corrected this serious problem, nor is there anything in the updates to lead one to believe they have an interest in doing so. I have spent hours trying to coerce this company to do something, but to no avail!! How much longer will YOU allow them to get away with this!!! A serious fire, or collision may result!! Must someone DIE in order for you to take action!!

My car Transmission started to make a Rattling Noise while leaving a store. While on the highway, far left lane going 65mph, all of a sudden the car slowed rapidly with traffic all around me traveling 65+mph. I had to get over 3 lanes to exit the highway going 25. I was almost hit several times by vehicles going 65+. This could have caused a deadly accident. Luckily I made it to the exit without a collision. The South Belleville Ford dealership inspected the car and said the flexplate was cracked. I found out from Ford that they put out a Customer Satisfaction Program repair for the same flexplate my car is equipped with, covering the cost of repair and a rental vehicle at 100% but my vehicle, even though it was manufactured during the time specified and at the assembly plant specified with the specified transmission and flexplate, it did not qualify for the program because it has a different engine than what they had on file. They offered to cover 40% of repair since my car did have the defective flexplate. This is an extreme safety hazard as it could cause a deadly accident. It's a transmission problem, the engine is irrelevant and shouldn't matter. Ford needs to recall all vehicles equipped with the defective flexplate and not wait until it cracks because when it cracks someone could die. This is not a wait-and-see issue. This is a replace the defective part immediately before someone dies. This also puts other drivers on the road at risk of sudden death if the car in front of them has the defective flexplate and it suddenly cracks while traveling at high speeds and suddenly rapidly decelerates like mine did. The program even states that is what can happen if it cracks, so they know of this extreme safety problem. Ford plants will change what they are making for a couple of months and that is how I ended up with a different engine and my VIN not being reported by the plant as having been manufactured there at that time with that same defective flexplate.

2019 Ford Fusion 1.5L Ecoboost engine. Flex plate cracked at 78000 miles. Ford Customer Satisfaction Program 22N12 covers this issue for my make and model, but dealership claims it does not cover my engine as it is a 1.5 and not a 2.0. The vehicle was produced at the same time and place as all the other listed vehicles, with the same faulty flex plate, yet somehow mine is not covered.

I received a "shift sys fault" error after I shifted into the reverse gear and reversed into a parking spot at my apartment complex. My car would not shift into any other gear after that. Luckily, I wasn't making a three point turn on a street or getting out of a shopping mall parking lot. This seems to be a known issue with Ford's switch cables and bushing, and a recall was already issued, but not for the model year 2019. The recall needs to be expanded to include 2019 and 2020 Ford Fusion.

- Columbia, SC, USA

My car started running weird, it would shake when at idle. It did this for about a week before the check engine light came on. I took my car to a mechanic and they determined the head gasket was bad. I took my car to a ford dealership for confirmation of the problem. They confirmed I had a bad head gasket. My safety is put at risk because this can cause engine failure. If my engine failed in the middle of the highway that would be extremely dangerous.

I have a 2019 Ford Fusion Titanium that I just recently sold to my son. I purchased the car used from a dealership in January of 2020. In October of 2021the flexplate went out and was replaced under the manufacturer warranty. The part went out again in May of 2023 and since the car had been totaled out due to a hail storm I have been told the manufacturer warranty is no longer valid. I have been able to find that there was a bad batch of replacement parts that may have found its way into several vehicles that have experienced this same problem. When Ford replaced the flexplate it was only the flexplate that was replaced. I was required to replace the flexplate, the front fluid pump assembly and the torque converter when I had to have it fixed again. I believe that if Ford has updated this recall it is due to them knowing that either the parts used in the original repair were defective and they don't know which ones it was; or, they now know that the original fix should have included the front fluid pump assembly as well as the torque converter. I believe that either way I should at least be able to ask for Ford to cover the cost of the parts under this second repair in less than two years on the same issue. The parts that I had put on now are guaranteed for two years, why is that? The labor should be at a discounted rate as well. It is my hope that you will investigate this or look at your database to see how many other customers are experiencing the same issue.

Last year my car started overheating for no apparent reason checked coolant reservoir and visibly seemed empty but when I removed the cap antifreeze rose fast. Added antifreeze and it stopped overheating. About 3 months ago Because it overheated I had to get the head gasket replaced, timing components replaced, heads repaired, and engine flushed(antifreeze had entered engine), not to mention labor all costing roughly $3,000. Only for it to happen again and now I-??m out of $3,000 because the same thing is happen only this time my car is shaking and smoking from the tail pipe badly. In the mean time my fiancé has lost his job due to us not being able to drive the car. After doing god knows how much research to find out this is an ongoing problem with this particular make of car. Because of having to pay for countless repairs and no one seeming to know what-??s going on with my car I am now behind on bills and still without a car that is only 4 years old. I haven-??t done any long driving to other states beside neighbors states that are about 2-3 hours away but that shouldn-??t matter because it-??s a new car I shouldn-??t have any problems driving it wherever. I purchased this car at a lil over 30k miles my problems started at about 61k miles which is odd since the manufacturer warranty had just expired about 1k miles before that. I believed in ford for the longest and now I am regretting ever buying one. My very first car purchase from a lot and it turns out to be the worst car I-??ve ever purchased. I-??m sure me typing all of this probably won-??t get read or even looked into but this is an experience I wouldn-??t dare want anyone else to go through so I-??m sure to leave many reviews but I thought you should know. Also because of the over heating my car has cut off at times where my life could have been taken (at lights and intersections) have a good day!

I routinely take my car to get oil changes and check for any other problems. So 2 days after getting my oil changed at a dealership my car began to overheat which shouldn-??t have happened because when I got my oil changed they filled the liquids to proper levels. So I added antifreeze because my reservoir was empty once cooled I opened my reservoir and antifreeze began to come back up to the proper level. After getting it home that same thing happened and haven-??t moved it since. Now my car shakes and the overheating light stays on. There is no visible leak and I don-??t know where the antifreeze goes. My car is only about 3 years old and I don-??t believe this should be happening. I take good care of my car routine check ups and oil changes. After doing some research online I-??ve seen so many people with my same car reporting the same issue. I believe this problem has been recalled in older years (2014-2016) unsure of exact years but I believe it wasn-??t fixed and now has cause major stress for me because I only have one car. Please look into this because right now I-??m out of a car and I don-??t know what to do and I am still paying on it and can-??t even drive it.
