We had the car have ignition problems and seen online about the throttle body. Ford said no you just need a battery and then a reset. Now they say sent us a recall letter on the throttle body, which could cause the problems I informed them about. Really makes you wonder how they expect you to feel safe when they over look your complaints that show up legit months later.

If a car is less than 4 years old and less than 50,000 miles, any engine issue should be covered...no deductible!

Just bought this car used with 31,600 miles on it. After owning it for a week the car stalled out and went into safe mode causing me to have to pull over, shut it off and restart it. The check engine light came on and happened several times while taking the care to the dealer. Owned a 2010 Ford Fusion, same car basically as the Milan, and had the exact same thing happen. Apparently the Throttle Body is an issue on these cars and is very frustrating. Why doesn't Ford find a better TB so this doesn't happen? Warning for anyone buying a Fusion, this is an issue, just check out the web, and happens quit frequently. Most likely my last Ford product.
