2017 Ford Fusion

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY UTILIZING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL. IT WAS SET TO 55 OR 65. I WENT TO CHANGE FROM THE RIGHT LANE TO THE LEFT LANE AND MY VEHICLE STARTED ACCELERATING QUICKLY. I WAS COMING ON TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WAY TOO QUICKLY TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME I HAD TO SWERVE AND HIT THE CEMENT MEDIAN. IT ALL HAPPENED SO QUICKLY I'M NOT SURE IF I WAS EVEN ABLE TO TRY AND HIT THE BRAKES AT ALL. I SEARCHED THE FORD WEBSITE AND HAVEN'T FOUND ANY RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLES YEAR. I THOUGHT I SHOULD REPORT THIS RIGHT AWAY SO OTHER DRIVERS ARE AWARE. THIS IS SECONDARY TO HAVING TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RESET....AND THE STEERING WHEEL BOLT REPLACED! I WISH I COULD GIVE THIS CAR BACK. SO SCARED TO GET BACK IN IT.

ON FRIDAY, JUNE 29TH 2018, I REMOTE STARTED MY CAR AND WHEN I GOT INSIDE THE CAR I WAS PRESENTED WITH THE WRENCH ICON AND IT SAID TO SEE THE MANUAL. I CHECKED THE MANUAL AND IT SAID THAT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH A POWERTRAIN FAULT. LIGHT WENT OFF ABOUT 3-5 LATER. AS I WAS DRIVING, I CAME TO A RED LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN, I GAVE IT GAS AND THE CAR WANTED TO STALL (RPM LEVELS DROPPED TO 500 OR LOWER RPM). IT DID IT AGAIN THE SAME DAY, BUT AT A LATER TIME. ALSO, WHEN I START BRAKING THE CAR'S RPM LEVELS GOES UP TO 3-4K RPMS WHEN BRAKING FROM 70MPH AND WHEN BRAKING FROM 40MPH. OCCASIONALLY IT DID IT AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. I HAVE PROOF ON VIDEO, BUT CAN'T UPLOAD THEM HERE DUE TO FORMAT.

MY CAR WINDOWS WILL GO UP AND THEN AUTOMATIC COME BACK DOWN. THE RADIO SWITCHS CHANNELS ON ITS OWN. THE CAR STALLS OUT AND WON'T START. THIS HAS HAPPEN AND GOTTEN REPAIRED MORE THAN 6 TIMES IN THE LAST 1.5 YEARS. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN THIS PASS WEEKEND. MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IS GOING TO FIX AGAIN. AS OF NOW I AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT FORD KEEPS SAYING DOES NOT FIT UNDER THE MARYLAND LEMON LAW. THIS CAR CLEARLY HAS SOME SERIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT FORD DOES NOT EVEN UNDERSTAND. I AM PUTTING THE LATEST DATE ON IT, BUT IT HAS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. THESE PROBLEMS OCCUR WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR PARKED.

THE SCISSOR JACK FOR THE CAR IS UNSTABLE, WHEN THE CAR WAS JACKED UP TO REMOVE A FLAT RIGHT FRONT TIRE WITH THE PARKING BRAKE SET AND THE CAR WAS ON A LEVEL PAVED PARKING LOT SURFACE, THE JACK ROLLED OVER AND THE CAR FELL ON TO THE TIRE AS IT WAS BEING REMOVED RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE FENDER AND INJURY TO MY HAND, I WAS THEN ABLE TO JACK THE CAR BACK UP AND REMOVE THE TIRE AND AGAIN WHILE PUTTING THE SPARE TIRE ON THE JACK ROLLED OVER AGAIN AND THIS TIME THE JACK WAS PINNED UNDER THE CAR AND FORD'S ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CONTACTED TO SEND SOMEONE TO JACK THE CAR UP. THE DEALER SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE JACK OR THE CAR, HOWEVER WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO A COLLISION SHOP THEY WERE ALL TO FAMILIAR WITH THE PROBLEM.

MY 2017 FUSION HAS COMPLETELY STALLED ON 2 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING. THE LATEST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 3/4/18. AS I PROCEEDED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION..THE CAR SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER PERSON. THE CAR WOULD NOT START UNTIL SOMEONE GAVE US A BOOST. MY HAZARDS WERE ALSO INEFFECTIVE. MY CAR STAYED AT THE BRONDE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR 4 DAYS AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WERE NO CODES SO THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS. MY CHILD AND I WERE IN GRAVE DANGER AND STILL IN DANGER BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND A SOLUTION. I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE WITH MY BABY.

CAR SHUT OFF WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WITH NO WARNING AND THEN WHEN I WENT TO RESUME DRIVING THE CAR SAID IT WAS IN ACCESSORY MODE. I STARTED TO ROLL BACK AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT. I PULLED OVER FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND STOPPED AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE FEELING SAFE TO PROCEED. THERE WERE SEVERAL OTHER CARS BEHIND ME WHEN THIS OCCURRED AND I AM THANKFUL I DID NOT ROLL BACK INTO ONE OF THEM. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO TELL ME WHAT CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. THEY SAID THERE WERE UNAWARE OF ANY ISSUES LIKE THIS. I HOWEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION AS WELL THAT WAS CAUSING A HARSH SHIFT THAT I WAS TAKING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIRS FOR. THERE IS ONLY 10821 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 2 WEEKS AND HAS REPLACED THE CLUTCHES, SEALS, AND BUSHING ACCORDING TO THE REPORT WE RECEIVED. I DO NOT FEEL AS THOUGH A NEW CAR SHOULD HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES THIS SOON. I AM CONCERNED IF OTHERS WOULD FIND THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE NEW FUSION SPORT.

HAVE HAD CAR FOR JUST ONE YEAR 18676 MILES AND IT HAS TURNED OFF RANDOMLY 3 TIMES DURING THIS TIME. RANDOMLY UNDER LIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS WHILE MAKING A TURN THE CAR LOOSES POWER AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE DASH IT SAYS FULL ACCESSORY LIKE YOU JUST PUSHED THE BUTTON WITH OUT TOUCHING THE BRAKE TO START. ONCE COASTED TO A SAFE LOCATION YOU CAN RESTART THE CAR AND EVERYTHING RUNS FINE. NO CODES ARE LOGGED WHEN THIS ISSUE OCCURS. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS ISSUE AS YOU HAVE NO WARNING WHEN IT HAPPENS AND IT LEAVES THE CAR WITHOUT POWER.

SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR IN JANUARY OF 2017 I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO CONNECT MY SMARTPHONE TO THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM ON THE SCREEN IT WILL WORK SOMETIMES EVEN THOUGH I DOWNLOAD THE APPROPRIATE APPS FOR MY PHONE IT WILL NOT CONNECT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS TO FORD OF MONTEBELLO AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THE TOUCHSCREEN ALSO HAS FLICKERED AND TURN ON OFF NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR. BOTH OF MY FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW AND PASSENGER WINDOW HAVE HAD A TENDENCY TO NOT ROLL ALL THE WAY UP AND AT THE SAME TIME ROLLED DOWN AND THEN THEY WOULD START DOING IT REPEATEDLY UNTIL I TURN THE CAR OFF OPEN MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND THEN IT WOULD STOP.
