Ford Fusion Fuel/propulsion System Safety Report | Aug 22, 2013
Reported on Aug 22, 2013
| WAS TRAVELING ON 696 IN DETROIT AREA AT 70 MPH WHEN MY 2010 FORD FUSION SUDDENLY LOST 'POWER' TO THE POWER TRAIN, IT LOST ALL VELOCITY AND THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. IT WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 0 MPH IN SECONDS! I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO SCARED FOR MY LIFE AS I WAS AT THAT MOMENT WATCHING CARS 'JUMP' LANES TO AVOID REAR ENDING ME DUE MY SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. I THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO CROSS MULTIPLE LANES MAKING NEAR THE SHOULDER AS THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP! THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT LIST ABILITY TO MOVE. DEALERSHIP CHARGED $600 TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE WHICH WAS 2 WEEKS OUT OF WARRANTY WITH 30,000 MILES! WHEN ASKED WHAT HAPPENED THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID SOMETIMES PARTS GO BAD. AFTER READING ABOUT THE ISSUE, IT SOUNDS BIGGER PROBLEM THAN THAT. LET ME KNOW WHAT INFO YOU NEED. *TR | |
