Ford Fusion Change Vehicle

"Tire / air pressure sensors have a fault, not working properly"

"CD got stuck and wouldn't operate at all. Had to replace whole thing for ~$500"

"CDs jammed in the player, would not eject. Entire radio was swapped out, lost several CDs"

"disc is inside player and will not play or eject"

"A Music CD was in player and I couldn't eject or play it. I would try to eject it every once in a while and it eventually worked. I only use easily replaceable CDs now."

"Display offsets in screen, does not center info. Dealer says can't fix. Have had system totally reset and frequently updated...no solution"

"Especially in the daytime, usually can't read the clock or temperature. Too low, small and dim"

"Speedometer stop working"

"Display screen has been blank for a few years now, as long as radio works not that interested in getting it fixed. Was quoted $90. just to look at electronic system by one dealership"

"Occasionally received poor or incorrect directions. Updating the system helped somewhat"

"The whole System would not work"

"continues to have a problem with the blue tooth. Drops the phone and will not pair,have had the system reset several times and right now it still will not pair with either Iphone"

"The featured worked fine for about 4 years. Then the USB port stopped charging devices and bluetooth pairing stopped working"

"difficult to get paired"

"The car won't pair with my iPhone 5"

"Unable to use car phone through car"

"When I get in the car, the phone does not always sync up with the bluetooth service and I will manually have to do it"

"phone un-pairs very regularly"

"It will dial a telephone number with my voice command, but goes into privacy mode on pickup at the other end. The result is that I cannot hear the other person over my car speakers and I loose my ability to talk hands free. I can only delete the privacy mode from my cell phone while calling, which is too dangerous while driving. If I make a call manually, without using voice command, it connects to the car speakers as it should, but that also defeats the hands free ability. This problem began a few months ago. Ford insists it is my cell phone, not their system. I don't think so."

"Volume control failed. Dealer replaced unit. cost $400"

"Amplifier went out at 55000 miles. $650 to replace"

"The entire radio system has stopped working twice. The car was at the dealer several days each time. Ford had/has no idea as to the cause. It's fixed but I don't know for how long"

"Sirius XM radio would not function. It was a radio problem (Sync related) not a Sirius XM problem"

"Buttons have stopped controlling the vehicle diagnostics and only work rarely"

"Same as last question/answer"

"Does not understand too many simple commands"

"seems to do its own thing regarding commands"

"It usually does not work i.e. I say "Call x" and it tells me it doesn't understand the command"

"I never like SYNC it was a pain"

"My problem is described under the Bluetooth problem. It only happens when using the voice command."

"System was leaking coolant and eventually had to replace compressor as cold air non-existant"

"No cooling. Replaced manifold line assembly to compressor"

"intermittent hot air, dealer not able to diagnose, cannot fix"

"There is no leak in the system. i understand that a $15 part is likely responsible for the fact that chilled air is not released into the car. There is refrigerant in the system. I was told that this is a problem with this model. Also there is a recall on the airbag. Waiting to have it fixed."

"replaced compressor but still have intermittent problem with ac stopping cooling"

"AC was cold but in AUTO mode would not run fan at high"

"The system is on it's 2nd failure- it won't go out of automatic and it turns on A/C and and tries to cool down (full blast) while also trying to keep the car warm. Dealer can not find problem- am taking car back this week"

"The old one wore out"

"leak"

"AC quit cooling --- condenser replaced"

"Main electrical harness to battery failed which also caused the electrical harness to transmission to fail"

"Driver Side heated seat stopped working. Likely broken wire in the seat based on symptoms"

"Replaced driver side seat heating element and replacement burnt out within one yr"

"Driver's side seat heater began getting way too hot on the right side of the seat --- hot enough to feel like it was burning. Once that started happening it would occasionally not turn on, or click off shortly after turning on"

"Drivers seat stopped heating completely. Passenger seat was working. They had to remove the front seat to fix controls."

"Drivers side heating element went out"

"Had coolant and thermostat changed as part of normal maintenance and the dealer was not able to remove all the air in the coolant. This left the heater blowing cold air at idle, with the heat on full hot. Took dealer 3 weeks to fix, included calls"

"The directional valve inside heating duct failed"

"I could not control the temperature. It suddenly went to full hot with or without A/C on."

"Warranty covered repair to throttle body after a recall for reprogramming the throttle body"

"The transmission shifts very roughly and sometimes it is slow to shift"

"I have had it at dealers before warranty expiry. they said nothing wrong. now off warranty and getting worse all the time. I think going to be major expense"

"Rough Shifting when transmission was placed in drive and car was idling. Dealer replaced components under Waranty"

"Rough shifting led to the gentle acceleration I described in the previous post."

"The rebuilt transmission was a long term cost savings as its now out of warranty and going bad. a new transmission would have had a three year warranty"

"Transmission would jerk violently when shifting between 70 to 80 Kms/hr. This occurred intermittently, and then became frequent enough to produce an error code for the dealership"

"Driving in high (6th) gear, car would suddenly downshift to a lower gear and stay there until stopping and turning engine off"

"Included a recall on the transmission, which had to be serviced after the initial recall was fixed. Also had a transmission leak that the dealer couldn't fix for 7 days"

"Needed to have the computer shifting recalibrated because 2nd gear was slipping. This was done under warranty by the dealer"

"Two lines for the transmission cooler corroded and needed immediate replacement. I have had the fluid replaced sooner than recommended also because I don't trust the longevity of the transmission"

"I noticed fluid leaks on my garage floor for 2 years or more, but when I took it to the Ford dealer they said they couldnt find any leaks. When the car was 4.5 years old, the transmission was clearly slipping (shifting hard when cold) so I took it in"

"leak associated with known Ford advisory"

"leak by gear selection arm into the transmission"

"left axle seal"

"$700 repair"

"The 6F35 transmission manufactured in 2010 had a flaw in the half shafts in which the finish was not as smooth as it should be. This causes premature wear of the bushings where the half shafts exit the transmission, and fluid leakage results. The left half shaft was replaced free of charge per Ford bulletin TSB 10-21-11. The right half shaft is not covered, even though it most certainly was manufactured at the same factory at the same time. If not repaired, the transmission would ultimately"

"Transmission oil leak determined to be seepage through corrode oil cooling lines, requiring their replacement"

"Transmission leak. Because of rack under car/transmission there is no easy way to know this is happening. Fluid was empty by the time it was found during an oil change"

"The seal between transmission and short axle shaft was worn and leaking. Found out this was a design flaw where poor material was used, which hastened wear. Had this replaced with upgraded solution, and it has resolved the problem"

"Throttle control went out. Repaired with recall. Seem to be having problems again. Only 12000 miles or 1 year warranty on part"

"Car just stopped while driving"

"Whole system would not work"

"Got an airbag safety recall, so the car has to spend a day at the dealer to replace, so I have to go through the trouble of taking it there and getting it back."

"Recall"

"air bags on recall for almost 3 years. Ford keeps saying they are waiting on parts. Dealer told me they have no idea when parts will come into repair. (Takata recall) My service writer told me he didn't think they will ever come in. Ford sent me a letter and told me not to sit anyone in the front seat. I filed a complaint with the NHTSB and they basically said good luck. I feel Ford is just dragging its heels and hoping the customers will just go away. I will never purchase another Ford car again and now they have announced they are discontinuing the Fusion, I wonder why. I feel they are truly a dishonest company."

"The car has the airbags that have been recalled, but there is no fix for the recalled airbags. It has been several months now."

"The sensors often start beeping for no reason."

"I feel as if I am getting the run around because Ford announced this problem for quite some time. I usually get the same saying we don't have the part yet, and we will give you a notification when it is in. I purchased this car from the dealer in 2010Someone drove it off the lot, and I guess their finances failed, so they had to return it. When that happened, it was considered used."

"the connector for the left front headlight melted. This was an internal failure & it took 3 bulb failures before it was determined the connector was the root cause of the failure.
