A wrench warning light came on, and a warning "SHIFT SYS FAULT Service Required" appeared on the dashboard. This warning appeared when I tried setting the dial to park in the car, and the "P" on the dial was blinking. I could not put the car back in park and had to apply the emergency brake to ensure the car stayed parked. Luckily I was back at home when this happened and was not out in public where this could have caused an accident if I was not able to switch from reverse "R" to "D" for example. After checking online and physically checking the part myself I found the issue to be with the transmission shifter bushing (part # KV6Z7K340A) being missing/degraded. This follows the same issue noted in recall #22V413000 which was for the 2013-2016 fusions, but it should be expanded to the 2018-2020 models too. The vehicle has not been officially inspected due to the fact it cannot be driven anywhere, however, I have ordered the parts from the local Ford dealer for replacement. The failure mileage was 82,670 miles.

2019 Ford Fusion SE 1.5L. Not made aware of CSP on my car. Have dealer notes saying my car wasn-??t listen in OASIS for notification. Although when I found the CSP online my car is an -??affected vehicle-??. I now have low coolant, white exhaust smoke and severe knocking from my engine. I had a first ever reported issue to the dealership in 05/2023 where my car stalled out and dash lights illuminated. They ran codes and the only documented code in the service paperwork was P0222. They found a -??chaffed wire-??. They did not upgrade my PCM. Although by 05/2023 that was the recommendation on the CSP for the dealership to do after previously failed bandaid fixes by Ford. My car will be going to the dealership on 12/9/24 to address my concerns and request all of my detailed service records. And really figure out why exactly the dealership didn-??t complete ANYthing issued in the CSP especially when I was taking my car to the dealership for routine maintenance. I am within the 6 or 7 years and 84k miles or whatever it is now. It continuously changes but honestly I am quite upset that faulty engines aren-??t being recalled by Ford but Ford will issue a recall on BACK UP CAMERAS. Like seriously. Engine > camera A faulty back up camera is probably not the same level of fire/safety risk as the faulty engines Ford continues to refuse to recall.

Flex plate cracked at 84000 miles. It is currently at a Ford dealership being repaired at my expense. The car exhibited a rattling noise at idle near the bell housing. Had the part in question shattered at highway speeds, the results would have been catastrophic. There were no warning indicators other than the rattling noise. From researching this issue, it seems to be a widespread problem with the 1.5l eco boost, but it is not part of the recall.

Crack in engine. Total engine failure. Documented has history of coolant fluidleak in engine from cylinders. I had to pay $4750 toward repair cost to replace the engine and Ford paid $6500. Stated ford paid portion as good faith gesture. I should not have had to pay anything toward the cost of having the engine replaced. This defect has also caused fires.

The lane keep assist does not work basically, it can't detect the lines, due to the recall I can't charge my car which I paid much more than regular ford fusion. To be able to use the Electric miles and save on gas, also the 3G modem stopped working and ford has no fix for that, took it to different dealers and they say even if I replace the old modem with a new 4G, (paying out of my own pocket !!) most likely the app and remote connection will not work.

Hello. Recently it was discovered by my mechanic when they were doing an oil change that there was a crack discovered between the engine and transmission. This crack appeared to be a part of the flex plate which has been causing transmission fluid to leak and ultimately losing power in some cases when driving. When doing research, my vehicle did not come up under recall looking everywhere I could with my VIN#. I-??m afraid for my safety and the safety of my family. A picture uploaded below will show the crack and some transmission fluid visibly leaking. Please help. My vehicle currently has 55,646 miles.

My vehicle had a recall opened nearly a year ago. The recall is 23S33 PHEV BATTERY CELL DEGRADATION. I had taken my car into the dealership nearly a dozen times over the course of almost 2 years prior to the recall being announced. I was told not to charge a car that I bought for that specific purpose. Initially a solution was posted of replacing the battery which was then removed. So there very much is a remedy available, they just don't want to pay the cost to provide that remedy. I am attaching a saved image of the recall from ford's website that under remedy specifically states what the remedy is. The longer they wait the less of these vehicles will be on the road due to accidents and such. So the longer they delay the less they have to spend to solve the issue. Meanwhile customers are not only unable to charge a vehicle that we bought for that purpose, but are driving a car Ford has admitted is dangerous. As it's a hybrid electric the battery is still being used everytime we drive the car.
