Vehicle speed control, Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 7, 2013
WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, I EXPERIENCED A COMPLETE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. THE IGNITION AND ELECTRICAL POWER REMAINED ON, BUT THE THROTTLE BECAME COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND I TURNED THE IGNITION COMPLETELY OFF. I TURNED IT ON A MINUTE LATER, THE CAR STARTED UP, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THROTTLE RESPONSE WAS BACK TO NORMAL. I DROVE TO MY NEAREST FORD DEALER WHERE I WAS TOLD IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH A FAILED THROTTLE BODY. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A HUGE ACCIDENT, BUT THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY AT THE TIME.
Vehicle speed control, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 6, 2013
UPON ACCELERATING FROM STOP AT CITY INTERSECTION TO 30 MPH, CAR SUDDENLY LOST ALL ACCELERATION. COASTED INTO NEARBY LOT. "WRENCH" LIGHT ON. TURNED CAR OFF. LUCKILY, NO CAR HAD BEEN APPROACHING FROM REAR, AND THIS WAS BEFORE ENTERING RAMP TO BUSY 60 MPH HIGHWAY. CAR RAN, AS IF NORMAL AFTER RE-STARTING, WRENCH LIGHT OUT. DROVE 15 MILES TO DEALER SERVICE SHOP. SHOP PERFORMED FORD'S THROTTLE BODY TEST PROCEDURE AND VERIFIED THROTTLE BODY HAD FAILED. SHOP REPLACED ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY; CAR AT 54,000 MILES. FROM RESEARCHING, SEE THAT THIS A PREVALENT ISSUE WITH INCREASING RATE OF OCCURRENCE (A TOP 5 CAR COMPLAINT OVER PAST 90 DAYS). GIVEN THE APPARENT INCIDENT RATE, INTERMITTENT NATURE, AND ODDS OF OCCURRING WITH SUDDEN SURPRISE IN TRAFFIC MOVING AT SPEED, CLEARLY PRESENTS A HAZARDOUS CONDITION AND COMPROMISES SAFETY IN OTHERWISE NORMAL DRIVING CIRCUMSTANCES. EVIDENTLY PROBLEM OCCURS WITHIN PREDICTABLE RANGE ON ODOMETER, WHICH PROBABLY INDICATES SOME MANUFACTURING DEFECT LEADING TO PREMATURE FAILURE. ALONG WITH THE RESULTING SAFETY RISK EXPOSURE, THIS DOES NOT REASONABLY MEET AUTOMOTIVE CONSUMER EXPECTATIONS FOR THE EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY. AS MORE VEHICLES GO THROUGH THIS MILEAGE RANGE, MAY BECOME EPIDEMIC WITH INCREASING ODDS FOR BAD OUTCOMES. WANTED TO ADD MY EVENT TO THE LIST; MAYBE CAN SAVE SOMEONE ELSE POTENTIAL SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND INJURY. TO THIS POINT, THE CAR SEEMS GOOD OTHERWISE, BUT THIS ITEM NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND BY ALL RIGHTS GET REMEDIED IN A PROACTIVE MANNER.

THE CAR UNEXPECTEDLY LOSSES POWER. IT HAS OCCURRED ON TWO OCCASIONS. YOU CAN CONTINUE TO PRESS ON THE GAS PETAL BUT THE CAR WILL NOT INCREASE IN SPEED.YOU MUST PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURN THE ENGINE OFF. WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND RESTART THE CAR IN ORDER TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE THROTTLE AGAIN. IT HAS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO FORD. THEY HAVE RECALLED THE 2010 ESCAPE FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THE 2010 FORD FUSION FOR THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED OR INJURED.*JS

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, I SUDDENLY LOST ALL THROTTLE CONTROL, REQUIRING ME TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY, THRU 2 OR 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC. THE AMBER "WRENCH" LIGHT WAS ON. AFTER STOPPING THE CAR AND SHUTTING IT OFF, I RESTARTED IT, AND ALL WAS WELL AGAIN. "WRENCH" LIGHT WAS OFF, AND I HAD FULL POWER/THROTTLE CONTROL AGAIN. I CONTINUED MY COMMUTE WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THE COMMUTE HOME WAS UNEVENTFUL TOO. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM IN THE PAST MONTH, AND IS VERY UN-NERVING WHEN IT HAPPENS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AS YOU COAST WHILE LOSING ALL POWER, TRYING TO CHANGE LANES AND AVOID TRAFFIC. I'LL BE TAKING THE CAR TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER IN THE MORNING. SEARCHING THE NHTSA DATABASE SHOWS LOTS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. I THINK IT IS TIME FOR FORD TO HAVE A RECALL.

FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD FORD FUSION (2010) STARTED STALLING OUT AT RANDOM TIMES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND ASKED HIM WHAT MAY BE WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE AND HE SAID THAT THERE WAS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY, WHICH CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL OCCASIONALLY AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME AROUND $350 FOR THE PART ALONE. I BELIEVE THIS TO A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE ONE TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60MPH WITH A SEMI-TRUCK BEHIND ME AND THE TRUCKER CAME VERY CLOSE TO HITTING ME. I ALSO HAD THIS HAPPEN TO ME AT AN INTERSECTION WHILE TAKING OFF FROM A RED LIGHT, TURNING LEFT. I HAVE DONE SOME ONLINE RESEARCH ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT DOES SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM AMONGST MANY FORD FUSION OWNERS IN CARS THAT ARE ONLY 2 OR 3 YEARS OLD. IF THIS IS SUCH A COMMON OCCURRENCE THAT FORD DEALERS KNOW THAT THIS ISSUE EXISTS THEN I ASK WHY HASN'T THIS PART BEEN RECALLED? *TR

THIS ISSUE IS SO COMMON THAT FORD IS HAVING A HARD TIME PRODUCING ENOUGH THROTTLE BODIES. THE PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND THIS PARTICULAR DEALER HAD A CAR IN THE SHOP THAT HAD WAITED 1 MONTH FOR THIS PART. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE IS A 2010 FORD FUSION SE V6. I WAS TRAVELING AT 80 MPH IN THE LEFT LANE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR DECIDED IT NO LONGER WISHED TO ACCELERATE. MY SPEED IMMEDIATELY AND DRASTICALLY SLOWED DESPITE KEEPING MY FOOT TO THE FLOOR ON THE ACCELERATOR. BECAUSE I DID NOT TOUCH MY BRAKES, THERE WAS NO WARNING OF MY RAPID DECELERATION TO THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME BY WAY OF BRAKE LIGHTS. THE VEHICLE DIRECTLY BEHIND ME MISSED HITTING ME BY ABOUT 2 INCHES AND THE VEHICLES BEHIND THAT HAD TO SWERVE - IN VERY HEAVY TRAFFIC - TO AVOID HITTING BOTH OF US. IT WAS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I QUICKLY THREW ON MY HAZARDS AND PULLED OVER ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WITH MY FOOT COMPLETELY ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED, THE CAR SHOOK, SPUTTERED, AND SEEMED TO TRY TO LITERALLY JERK FORWARD ENTIRELY BY ITSELF. THE ONLY WARNING LIGHT THAT CAME ON WAS THE LITTLE WRENCH (THROTTLE CONTROL/POWERTRAIN/STABILITY). I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND REMOVED THE KEYS. I SAT THERE FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES, THEN I STARTED UP THE CAR, SAW NO WARNING LIGHTS, AND CONTINUED DRIVING TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT A SINGLE ISSUE. IT WAS A TRULY TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE BUT BOTH TIMES WERE AT LOW SPEEDS WITH NO OTHER CARS AROUND. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THEN AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. *TR

THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCALFORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR

LIKE MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS I READ ON- LINE AND WAS ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM MYSELF A 55 YEAR OLD FEMALE, I WAS DRIVING AND ALL THE SUDDEN MY ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT HAD NO ACCELERATION THE PEDAL WAS WORTHLESS, LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF THE ROAD WITHOUT BEING SLAMMED INTO BY OTHER CARS AND THEN WHEN I CAME TO COMPLETE STOP THE CAR STARTED SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY AND THEN THE ENGINE DIED. I PUT IN PARK AND TURNED OFF IGNITION THEN I RESTARTED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE A FEW MILES THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I HAD TO RESTART 4 TIMES TO MAKE IT HOME AND I WAS LUCKY TO BE IN MY HOME TOWN WHEN THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE I MAKE A LOT OF TWO HUNDRED MILE TRIPS. I GOOGLED ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THAT OTHER OWNERS OF THIS LEMON VEHICLE HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. FORD DEALERSHIP WANTED CLOSE TO $700.00 TO DIAGNOSE AND REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY, PARTS AND LABOR. I'M RECENTLY DIVORCED AND UNEMPLOYED AND COULD NOT AFFORD THIS RIDICULOUS AMOUNT FOR SOMETHING THAT TAKES LESS THEN 10 MIN. TO CHANGE, I BOUGHT A NEW ONE FOR $172.00 AND DID IT MYSELF COULDN'T BE EASIER. FORD SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR NOT RECALLING ALL VIN NUMBERS MINE WASN'T INCLUDED IN RECALL, THANK GOD SOMEONE POSTED ON UTUBE HOW TO CHANGE IT. SHAME ON FORD THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HOPE NO ONE GETS KILLED IN A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENS. *TR

2 DAYS IN A ROW, DRIVING 40-50 MPH AND MY CAR COMPLETELY LOSES ACCELERATION. THE WRENCH LIGHT GOES ON. I HAVE TO ROLL TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHILE THE CAR SHAKES LIKE IT IS STALLING OUT. I TURN THE CAR OFF AND WAIT A MINUTE OR TWO THEN TURN THE CAR ON AND EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL, NO WRENCH LIGHT, NO PROBLEMS... UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I HAVE A 10 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER TO DRIVE AROUND AND WOULDN'T WANT TO PUT OURSELVES IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION ON A BUSY ROAD OR HIGHWAY. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE WITH MANY FUSION OWNERS AROUND THE COUNTRY. PLEASE HELP. *TR

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH AND THE CAR LOST ALL RESPONSE TO THE ACCELERATOR, PRESSING ON THE GAS DID NOT ACCELERATE THE CAR. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE AND CAR RAN A ROUGH. TURNED THE CAR OFF, WAITED ABOUT A MINUTE AND RESTARTED. CAR RESTARTED FINE AND DROVE FINE AFTER THAT FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP. MY WIFE DROVE THE CAR THE NEXT DAY AND HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN WHILE SHE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. SHE SAW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON (I DON'T RECALL IT COMING ON, BUT MAY HAVE JUST MISSED IT). *TR

WHILE TRAVELING IN THE MIDDLE LANE ON I-77 AT 65 MPH, THE CAR SUDDENLY DECELERATED TO A STOP. THE CAR WAS RUNNING BUT THE CAR WAS UNABLE TO MOVE. FORTUNATELY A BRAVE PASSERBY PULLED OFF ONTO THE LEFT MEDIAN, STOPPED TRAFFIC IN THE LEFT LANE, DIRECTED ME TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL & PUSHED MY CAR OVER THE LEFT LANE AND ONTO THE LEFT MEDIAN. A STATE HIGHWAY PATROLMAN, COINCIDENTALLY, CAME BY AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. HE PUSHED ME FARTHER OFF THE ROAD, FEARING A REAR END COLLISION. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED. THE TOW COST OVER $80. IF I HAD NOT PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THIS REPAIR WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER $700. THIS WAS A TERRIFYING INCIDENT AS THIS IS A HEAVILY TRAVELED STRETCH OF INTERSTATE. I CONSIDER MYSELF VERY UNFORTUNATE THAT I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. IF THE GOOD SAMARITAN HADN'T HELPED,I WOULD HAVE HAD TO EITHER STAY IN MY VEHICLE & RISK A REAR END COLLISION OR TRY TO LEAVE MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE LANE, CROSS THE LEFT LANE BY FOOT, AND WAIT FOR ASSISTANCE ALONG THE LEFT MEDIAN. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY DEFECT IN FORD FUSIONS HAS BEEN WELL-DOCUMENTED. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I WORRY FOR MY NEPHEW & SON-IN-LAW WHO BOTH HAVE 2010 FUSIONS. *TR

WHILE ALREADY IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR BEGINS TO DECREASE IT'S SPEED, VIBRATE AND THEN STALL OUT. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. CORRECTIVE ACTION TAKEN AT TIMES OF EVENT IS TO PULL OUT OF TRAFFIC AS BEST AS POSSIBLE. TURN OFF THE IGNITION, PUT THE CAR IN PARK THEN AFTER APPROX TWO MINUTES, RESTART THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE DRIVING. *TR

THIS CAR HAS A TENDENCY ON STALLING BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL KICKED OFF. I REALIZED THAT THE CAR HAD NO POWER, SO I WENT TO THE SHOULDER AND THE CAR WAS SHUDDERING AS I CAME TO A STOP. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANYTHING I COULD SEE WRONG IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, CHECKED ALL FLUIDS, ETC. GOT BACK IN THE CAR AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. WE WENT A LITTLE WHILE LONGER AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. ALL IN ALL, IT HAPPENED PROBABLY 8-10 TIMES IN A LITTLE OVER A 100 MILE TRIP. THE WRENCH LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHEN THE PROBLEM APPEARED, BUT ONLY THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON AFTER RESTARTING.WHEN WE GOT BACK INTO TOWN, I WENT TO AUTO ZONE TO HAVE THE ENGINE CODE READ AND IT WAS P2111 (THROTTLE BODY). AFTER DOING SOME INVESTIGATING, I FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG THESE CARS. I FOUND OUT THAT IT IS VERY EASY TO REPLACE, SO TRIED ORDERING ONE. THE PART THAT MOST SOURCES HAVE LISTED IS AROUND $170. BUT, THAT PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND THE REPLACEMENT IS $324. I THINK FORD IS GOUGING THE CONSUMERS TO FIX A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE FIXED UNDER A RECALL. I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD CAR THAT I DON'T DARE TAKE A TRIP WITH. *TR

CAR LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING. IT WOULD NOT RESPOND TO ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT ON. I PULLED OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD; CAR RESTARTED AFTER 2-3 TRIES; DROVE WITHOUT INCIDENT FOR NEXT 1500 MILES. SINCE THEN HAS STALLED THREE TIMES, USUALLY WITHIN A FEW MINUTES OF INITIAL START DRIVING AT 30-40 MPH. EACH TIME, RESTARTS WITH ONE OR TWO TRIES AND RUNS OK, BUT FEELS SLUGGISH. *TR

MY 2010 FORD FUSION HAS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. SEVERAL TIMES IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN TURNING LEFT, STOP WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY FREEWAY, AND QUICKLY ACCELERATE WHEN MY FOOT HAS BEEN ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE. *TR
