Ford Fusion Fuel/propulsion System Safety Report | July 11, 2013
Reported on July 11, 2013
| THE CAR STARTED LOOSING POWER ON THE INTERSTATE. THEN IT STOPPED COMPLETELY. AFTER PULLING OVER, IT STARTED AGAIN WHICH MADE ME THINK IT WAS A STOPPED UP FUEL FILTER. NO HARD CODES APPEARED AT THAT TIME. IT DID THE SAME THING SEVERAL TIMES LATER. ON ONE OCCASION IT STOPPED IN THE CITY AND I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR. FINALLY THIS WEEK A HARD CODE APPEARED WHICH SHOWED IT WAS THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR. THE MECHANIC WORKING ON THE CAR TRIED TO GET ONE FROM THE FORD DEALER BUT WAS TOLD THEY WERE ON A NATIONAL BACKORDER AND WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AUGUST 7, 2013. *TR | |
