My car in February of 202: got stuck in park they said it was electrical issue, then months later I ended up with a coolant leak that then combusted my engine. New engine in August of 2023 fast forward to November 2023 my car is doing the same thing it stalled in the road with myself and newborn in the car, lost all speed and now it will not go in drive or reverse just like it did in February of 2023. It-??s been in the shop twice and now ongoing it-??s third time and I find this to be a severe issue because if my car is going to keep stalling while driving there is no reason to keep fixing this car. I-??m aware past fusion-??s have been recalled for something of similar problems so it makes me wonder if this should be recalled as well.

While I drive my steering got stuck and stiffed. Hard to turn the wheels. Luckily when I entered my neighborhood stop the vehicle. Then I got the message from Ford Pass app saying *Electronic power steering control module fault and *collision warning system lost radar signal. If the steering stuck happened in highways while drive possibly life threatening issue

While driving to work on I35 the a red message popped up on the dash saying "Stop Safely Now" and the engine/hybrid motor instantly completely died. Steering and breaking were almost impossible because I am not a strong person and I was nearly rear ended several times. I had no chance to get to the shoulder and was blocking the lane in the middle of traffic till I was able to get someone to tow it to a side street. Completely unacceptable and very dangerous for the car to die completely like this.
