The flex plate on my vehicle was cracked. Which damaged the transmission pump. We heard what sounded like a box of rocks which quickly got louder and louder we took the car to the dealer the next day. We had no other warnings something was wrong no engine light or anything. Had this plate broken completely we likely would have crashed and our small children could have been hurt. We took it to our local Ford dealer who diagnosed the issue, but would want over $6000 to fix the issue, on top of the $225 we paid to get the issue diagnosed. So for the forseable future we have no safe vehicle.

Fuel tank: Tank leaked when it was filled. Most of the time in my driveway but occasionally in parking lots unstil the tank level was reduced to approximately 3/4 filled. In addition fumes would fill the air surrounding the car. The automobile is being currently repaired at an independent repair facility. No other inspection other than repair facility. Initially no warning light but as it progressed the "check engine light" lit. Inspected the removed gas tank at repair facility and the caused of the problem may be a design flaw. the tank design on my vehicle (all wheel drive) is such that it has two zones and each zone has a fuel pump. The retaining plates on the tank are made of metal and therefore due to New England winters and the position of the tank and the location of the tank the retaining plates rust. This resulted in the retaining plates to rust leaving pin holes in the retaining rings causing gas and fumes to exit the fuel system.

Codes P0300 P0301 P0316 - My son was driving and approached a red light - his car began to idle rough and check engine light came on. Instructed him to park the car and we towed to a local mechanic. Cylinder 1 was misfiring and also had a mix of oil, fuel and possibly coolant in Cylinder 1. Apparently this is a defective issue with a 2014 Ford Fusion with a 2.0 Ecoboost Engine and also lawsuits regarding this. Ford dealership confirmed this is a sore issue with Ford and referred to Ford Customer Service --- no assistance and just advised to hold onto receipts in case it is a recall issue -- this is not okay at all. Ford has had plenty of opportunities to correct this with Ford Fusions but still have not!!!!! Very very very upset!!!

Car started making a loud noises from the back of the car when sitting idle in traffic. Noise got louder when opening gas cap. Once refueled the car failed to restart (turn on then shut off right away) and gave run, power, active message and engine light came on. After several tries and leaving foot on brake after pushing start and putting into gear right away the car stayed running. This leads me to believe this is the purge valve as many others have had the same issue. Ford issued a recall on the Focus and earlier model Fusions for this issue but has not included the 2014 yet.

Unknown but every time I get gas my car basically tries to stall out or does stall out. Has stalled out 2x while at a red light. Has been happening the entire time I have owned this car. Over a year and half

- Portland , TN, USA

My engine light came on. Code is PP0456 - evap leak. Dealer found that gromet/seal on tank is failing. This part is not serviceable, so the entire fuel tank needed to be replaced. After dealer discount, the cost was $2242.24. Dealer is Larry H. Miller Ford, Mesa, AZ, phone (480) 530-9600. I have owned many Ford vehicles since 1978 and never experienced such an expense. In my opinion, this is a design issue since the rubber seal is not serviceable. This experience is causing me to lose faith in the Ford brand. Is FMC willing to assist with this expense? Please note - this vehicle has only been serviced at the dealership.

Mu 2014 Ford Fusion Titanium hesitates to start back up after fueling and needs to be repeated multiple times, pumping the gas pedal for a few tries before it eventually stabilizes, accompanied by a very intense odor of exhaust. Final Verdict: Emissions Purge Valve Assembly failure

- Palm Bay , FL, USA

Vehicle's gas peddle becomes unresponsive/locks while in operation. Twice this has occurred at top speeds of 65 on major highways and thankfully, in situations where I could pull onto a median. That said, this is a very dangerous situation regardless and should substantiate an investigation as it's apparent I'm not the only one who's experienced this. In addition to this, the vehicle refuses to turn over when filled with gasoline.

- Reno, NV, USA

As I was driving on the highway at 65mph my car stopped accelerating as I was driving. I had to cut my car off as to 'restart' it would allow me to drive a short distance. Thank goodness I was not far from home. This has never happened and I had no warning or indication that something was wrong. I just got an oil change 2 weeks ago and I keep up on maintenance on my vehicle. I went to the internet and researched the issue and I came across a bunch. This is an issue that should be recalled because this can cause a health and safety hazard while driving.

I've had my car for 5 years. 6 months after I purchased it it started showing transmission issues. It's almost like it gets stuck in a gear when trying to accelerate, and then it flings your forward. When driving up a hill it won't go over 30mph. I took it in over 2 years ago to Ford and was told a transmission recall for 2014 Ford Fusion was coming. 2 years later and I'm being told my car doesn't qualify but is showing all the signs that's listed on the recall. Just last week my car shut off while driving on the freeway with my kids in the car. Since it's happened 3 times. Since it started shutting off while driving a new issue has progressed. My car now jerks when trying to accelerate. If I have the heater in it smells like something is burning. We used a code reader and it told us transmission issues but Ford still says I don't qualify.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idling, the accelerator pedal was depressed and the vehicle hesitated. The contact contacted a certified mechanic who informed the contact that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. A dealer was not contacted or notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 134,567.

Purge valve solenoid bad causing car to shut off while driving. Check engine light came on. Got code P144A

- Sylvester, GA, USA

When fueling the tank vehicle will not stay running. Engine starts and then dies. This goes on up to five minutes then engine stays running with no check engine light on. Check codes there is P1450 stored. Other times it happens after driving and turning engine off and then re starting a few minutes later, sometimes the engine stutters and dies after driving which can be in a parking lot or make to the highway stop at a stop lights which gets really scary when other traffic is around. I look up my VIN for recalls it shows none. It starting happening a while back just once in a while accurrence, now everytime I fill up.

- Maricopa, AZ, USA

The car will pulsate and shake when driving, then the check engine light would come on. You can't accelerate, like there no accelerating in then the car cut off, which is danger. I have had this car for less then a year, I just payed close to 1,000 bucks getting it fix from having electrical problems that my warranty did not cover. I had to take to the shop for things that was or recalled., in now this. I think I was sell a lemon.

- Garfield Hts, OH, USA

My check engine light came on I had car towed to Ford dealership was told that coolant seeped I to my engine this was a recall but my cars bin was not included I was told I owed 7000 to have it fixed. I will owe 10.000 on loan. I pulled over and had car towed to dealership. When I had my oil changed I was told my car needed coolant it was empty. We added coolant. There was no coolant leaking from my car

Upon applying the gas and accelerating from a stop or idle position and sometimes at speed, my 2014 Fusion will sputter with jerking motion while losing rpms and power before stalling altogether. It has happened more frequently and today it occurred multiple times, in several instances when entering traffic from a side road. This creates a significant potential for an accident to occur as the car suddenly stalls while cars are approaching and most likely not anticipating my vehicle to come to a stop. My only recourse is to shift the car to park and attempt to restart, which thus far has worked; though, the car is a bit difficult to start afterward. There's a hesitation to start afterward, as if there's no fuel, but not like an electrical or starter issue.

Gas tank makes a loud tapping noise at low speeds when the gas tank is over 3/4 full.

- Neenah, WI, USA

1. when pumping gasoline, the lever clicks off every 1-2 seconds, taking long time to fill gas tank, and never knowing if over-filling. I must repeatedly turn the ignition on/off/on in order to see the gas gauge. 2. the body dents easily.

- Moreno Valley, CA, USA

Takata recall: The car is stalling while I am in drive, with speeds up to 70 mph. It also will not start after I have put gas in the tank. I have to step on the gas to gwt it to start. The car is also shaking back and forth while in park just trying to stay started. Then it will die. Everytime I come to a stoplight or a stop sign I go through this and have great difficulty starting it back up continuously.

The purge valve went out on my car after never having any performance or emissions related issues. Upon researching, it seems to be rather common in Ford Fusion. Is there a recall review warranted at this time? I was driving to work and started hearing a loud humming, vibrating sound coming from my gas tank / gas cap area. It continued to hum every 15 seconds or so over the next 20 minutes until I arrived at work. There were no other issues and my car seemed to run just fine. This is, however, an emissions concern and seems to be common in Ford Fusion forums. Please investigate for a recall alert.
