Leaving gas station. Car just stops driving while in the driving gear. So I pulled over slowly to the side of the road and I had a warning to 'see manual' 'hill assistant not available' 'stop safely now' and it was showing traction control on. It will not drive. And runs weird now.

Battery drain everyday resulting in a need to jump start every time we need to use the car. We had the apim replaced in July 2020 after Ford diagnosed this as the problem. Now after four months and $1500 we are having the same exact issue and Ford is saying the backup camera is the cause for the power drain, and they are telling us it will be another $1300 to fix this issue. This dealer autonation Ford valencia, ca. Has had the car there for 5 weeks now and back in July 2020 they had the car for 4 weeks!!!!! we believe they did not fix the issue that caused the battery drain and now want to charge us again to fix the mistake.

The backup camera on my Fusion has been failing to function properly this has occurred on multiple occasions while driving in the city as well as on the highway. When in reverse the screen goes black or has multiple squiggly lines going across then an error that cameras is not available when I put the car into drive the camera will sometimes appear and show what's behind the car, however, when placed back into reverse I get the same error I was on vacation in fl and rented a brand new 2020 Ford and the camera malfunctioned the same way while driving in the city I attempted online research and found that its not only the Fusion but many Ford vehicles with the camera back up malfunction

The dash lit up notifying of a parking brake error while driving. Got home, parked car, turned car off. Went inside for about two minutes. When came back outside, there was smoke rolling out of the window. Put fire out. After examining, the fire appeared to have started from something electrical in the center counsel on the right side. It caught the seat on fire, melted the counsel, and the roof. No smoking of any sort has been allowed in my car since I got it. It was stationary when the fire started, but it was immediately after being driven.

On multiple occasions, driving at speeds over 60mph for more than 50 miles, causes a system alert that says steering assist fault and the power steering goes out. The first time I was able to pull over before the power steering went out. The next time, my boyfriend was driving and he had to veer onto the shoulder. Most recently, my grandmother drove my car to the airport and was unable to get the vehicle out of traffic turning into the airport as she was not strong enough to maneuver the car into the parking lot. I regularly keep up with all necessary maintenance and have brought the car to modica brothers as well as a local mechanic and they have both told me it is bolt corrosion as they assessed all other possibilities. Upon research, I found a recall for Ford Fusion manufactured in hermosillo in 2013 under recall #19S26. I contacted Ford about having my car added to the recall and was advised to reach out to NHTSA. As this is a big safety hazard, I wish to have this addressed immediately.

This past Sunday our son drove our Fusion less than 1.5 miles to church, parked it and went inside. Around 5 minutes later, someone saw smoke coming out of it. The engine compartment caught on fire. The car had not been driven before that since Thursday evening. The car had the recall work done over 2 years earlier when we purchased it for the coolant issue suspected of engine fires. The car had no other issues and had it's state inspection a little over a month ago. Our insurance company has decided not to conduct an investigation as to the cause. Is this something you would be interested in investigating?

While driving all electrical components will go on and off, including put not limited to windows, locks, radio, heating/ac, and dash gauges. The mechanic had the vehicle for approx 2 months and could not solve the issue. A Ford tech even looked at the car and could not figure out the issue either. Several of the control modules were replaced, alternator and battery with no impact on problem. This is a daily occurrence.

My Ford Fusion has had a consistent electrical problem that affects many aspects of the vehicle. To start, I will receive a message on the dashboard that reads 'temporarily lost connection with the climate control'. this leads me to not having any control of temperature, seat warmers, ac, etc. I have also lost the control of opening or closing the both windows on the passenger side. This has forced me to keep the window open overnight. I am worried about anyone getting into my vehicle or potentially stealing it. I'm tired of this possible shortage that is happening and I have read many other's complaints about the same issues.

The battery dies after the car is off and parked for 1-2 days. I have replaced the battery twice in 2 years and have the same problem. It is a defect with sync with my Ford module. Once due to this the car died while driving and I am afraid it could happen again. Many other owners have the very same problem and Ford and the Ford dealership pretends they do not know what I'm talking about and act as if it is not a safety issue. This should be a recall. I am still making payments for this car and I have to get it charged every day and due to the pandemic this has caused extreme hardship, when it is more important to have a reliable car. I have charged the battery over 30 times. The car goes dark and unable to open the car with the remote and have to use the key under the door handle. Please help, I do not have the money to pay Ford for a defect that they caused in the module that drains the battery.

My car idles roughly, and has stalled while driving. It has no outstanding recalls, and still happened. A few months ago it was happening, and on my way to a repair shop, overheated, and did over $700 worth of damage. Now, a few months later, it's got a rough idle and stalled on me yesterday as well. I was slowing down to take an exit, but took the exit with no power. Restarted the car and was able to drive it home.

Constantly getting a message on dash "power steering assist fault". occasionally a message about transmission comes up but too quick to read. See that Ford has done a recall on both of these items but haven't actually issued it yet. My VIN is not showing as one affected despite getting these messages. I am hearing some sort of noise that we can not identify and worry it is something with either one of these issues. Hard to describe the noise but replaced brakes and rotors thinking it could be that but the noise is still there. Worried this could cause a accident. Not sure why Ford does a recall but doesn't send it out when it is a known problem. Usually hear the noise while slowing. Message on dash is random but always while vehicle is in motion. Doesn't stay on long and happens at least 1-2 a week. Started back in December 2019
