Ford Fusion Fuel/propulsion System Safety Report | June 28, 2013
Reported on June 28, 2013
| AS I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL ACCELERATION POWER. I WAS FORCED TO PULL OFF THE ROAD FOR FEAR OF STALLING ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER A COUPLE SEPARATE SIMILAR INSTANCES AND TRIPS TO THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP, THEY DETERMINED THE PROBLEM WAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY. AFTER REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY, THE PROBLEM HAS NOT RECURRED. I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AFTER THE PROBLEM WAS IDENTIFIED AND FOUND NUMEROUS OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED OF A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH THE 2010 FORD FUSION. THE RESEARCH STATED THIS IS VERY COMMON WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BETWEEN 40,000 TO 60,000 MILES. *TR | |
