2017 Ford Fusion

I was driving home from work stopped at a red light on a hill.. the light turned green i went to proceed but my car had no power and didnt want to go.. i go it to go very slowly up the hill into a parking lot.. then the wrench light came on which is for the powertrain malfunction.. theyve recalled my car once before for the Power train: Automatic transmission: Torque converter recall number 17V427000.. is it possible that what they did could of been a temporary fix?

The gear shifter seized and was unable to shift to the intended gear. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 94,518.

Turned off 2017 Ford Fusion SE 1.5l and received a msg: shift says fault - service soon. Car kept telling me it was not in park even though it did turn off. Placed wheel blocks behind the wheels because it was "parked" at an angle. I can't understand how the 2017 is excluded from the previous years recalls for the shift bushing issue. After checking the bushing, the car did start but will not shift.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with NHTSA Hotline.

My 2017 Ford Fusion started have problems with shifting from different gears. After a week of small shifting issues, it would not shift into second gear. Launched into second gear from first very fast. Then it wouldn’t shift at all for awhile, then slowly worked between gears. Ford said it is the Torque converter and isn’t covered by recall. Sounds very close and fishy to me. It was made at the Hermosillo Ford plant and less than a month past the recall for this same issue out of this plant for this year make and model. Ford said there is nothing they can do. New transmission is 12 weeks out due to part shortage.

As I put the car in reverse it shifted really hard and then a warning light came on and told me to check the manual. Upon checking the manual I found it’s the Powertrain Indicator. The car is still driveable but skips and shutters when picking up speed to shift gears. It also hesitates like it wants to stop. I almost stalled out in the middle of the road multiple times while trying to make it back home.The manufacturer was contacted and I was told my particular vehicle was not under the recall. They offered no further assistance.
