Ford Fusion Fuel/propulsion System Safety Report | July 10, 2013
Reported on July 10, 2013
| WHILE RESUMING TRAVEL AFTER STOPPING AT A STOPLIGHT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO CONTINUE TO ACCELERATE. AS THERE WAS A LINE OF TRAFFIC BEHIND ME, I QUICKLY TURNED ON MY 4-WAY FLASHERS AND COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE IGNITION AND WAITING FOR A FEW MINUTES, I TRIED RESTARTING THE CAR. THE ENGINE RESTARTED NORMALLY AND I WAS ABLE TO PROCEED WITH FULL THROTTLE FUNCTIONALLY. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED TO ME THREE MORE TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT. I HAVE READ ON THE INTERNET THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND THAT FORD IS NOT ISSUING A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR | |
