Ford Fusion Power Train Safety Report | Apr 24, 2013
Reported on Apr 24, 2013
| DRIVING ON STATE HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH. VEHICLE SHUDDERED, THEN LOST POWER THOUGH ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. NO RESPONSE WHEN ACCELERATOR PRESSED. WRENCH WARNING LIGHT ON. PULLED OFF THE ROAD, TURNED ENGINE OFF. RESTARTED ENGINE. WARNING LIGHT OFF. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TWICE YESTERDAY AND ONCE TODAY SO FAR. TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALER WHO SAID THERE WAS NO CODE SHOWING ON THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS. MECHANIC DROVE CAR AND WAS UNABLE TO REPRODUCE PROBLEM. INSTRUCTED TO RETURN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP IF PROBLEM PERSISTED, WHICH I EXPECT IT WILL. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY SUSPECT A THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM, BUT SINCE THE CODE DIDN'T SHOW ON THE DIAGNOSTIC AND THE CAR IS UNDER AND EXTENDED WARRANTY, THEY CANNOT REPLACE IT UNTIL IT DOES. *TR | |
