My issue is with the transmission when applying the brakes. It seems to be the regenerative braking switching back-and-forth between the brake pads and the regenerative motor. Which causes the dash to come up with a bunch of error codes, including ABS brakes, traction control, airbags, Lane monitoring. these transmissions have about a 75% failure rate.

The shifter cable bushing malfunctioned. I could not shift the car out of park even though the gear shift inside the vehicle would move. There is a recall for this in other Ford vehicles but not for my vehicle. I feel like there should be a recall for the group my vehicle falls under as it happened to me.

Just before the December holiday, my car was making a notable noise. My local mechanic has diagnosed it to be a transmission failure at 99k miles. The local Ford dealership still has not looked at it and can't for weeks to come because of Covid (1/3 of the mechanics plus the Service Manager and assistant are out). They told us that the tool needed to repair this problem will not be available until April because it needs to be manufactured and distributed. I am left without a car, thrown into the market 2 years ahead of my financial plan, without assets from my car and having difficulty getting a loan because of the hyperinflation of car prices, particularly used. I am quite stranded.

The shift cable bushing in my 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid degraded and broke apart from the gear shift cable. This resulted in me being unable to shift gears while the vehicle was in park. Fortunately the car was parked at the time but this could have been a serious safety concern had the vehicle been moving. The vehicle was repaired by a Ford dealership by replacing the entire gear shift cable. This repair was considerably more expensive than just replacing the bushing itself which they claimed was not possible. No warning lights or messages were indicated before the failure. This part failure is the exact same issue involved in NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V471000.
