Service brakes, hydraulic, pedals and linkagesJan 13, 2022
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2014-2015 Fusion, Lincoln MKZ, and 2015 Mustang vehicles originally sold or ever registered, in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Hawaii. Exposure to certain environmental conditions, such as high temperatures, high humidity, and salt air can cause the brake pedal bumper to corrode and separate from the brake pedal.
A separated brake pedal bumper can cause the brake lights to illuminate continuously, causing confusion to other drivers and increasing the risk of a crash. On automatic transmission vehicles, a missing brake pedal bumper can allow the driver to shift the vehicle out of the "PARK" position without depressing the brake, allowing the vehicle to rollaway, increasing the risk of injury.

I was driving home from work at 10:30p. I pulled out of the parking lot at work when I lost power in the motor. Traffic was flowing and almost got T-bones. Right before I pulled it off the road it started to jerk like I was riding a bull. In the parking lot I shut it off and looked under the hood and checked everything but everything looked good. Started it back up and it started to run fine. So the next day it over heated took it to Ford and told them what was going on. They said someone bottom your car out so I turned it in to the insurance and they started a claim Ford fixed it. 2 days later it did It again over heated. Take it back in they fix it again pick it up again 2 days later over heats again. This is the third time it’s been in there and this time they say there is a TSB technical service bulletin-21-2269 that’s been out for over a year. At this point they tell me that no one has issued a recall on it. For the safety of others it should be recalled because if I had my kids in the call and got hit or killed over it someone would be paying.

2015 Ford Fusion SE 1.5L ecoboost While driving I have had loss of engine power posing risk in traffic. I refilled coolant and the misfire in cyl 1 inspired spark plug replacement. The problem recurs and I discover coolant in these engines has (secretly) known defect since 08 leaking into engine. At over 5 years though under 60K mi, Ford will not help / address the problem. Just did 3rd spark plug replacement and googled up the defect. Would love to get (long not short) engine replacement like other models have received with this. Would expect to get al least the reprogramming or other ideas for mitigation help from Ford.

Overheated warning light flashed then went off when car was cooled down for 45 mins and then started right up and no warning light was ever seen again to come on then drove car 30 miles next morn car wouldn't start.checked engine coolant and it was all gone no visible leak.. no warning light Refilled coolant car tried to start and put out white smoke from tailpipe. Car started barely and was rough running again no warning light showing drove car to mechanic and he said car engine was blown .. so looked on different forums and found that the Ford fusion and Ford escape motors the 1.5 liter was a real lemon and the overheat light warning of low coolant or overheating of engine has had problems for several years on these 2 vehicles that had the 1.5 engine in them .. you can no longer buy the 1.5 because they were so terrible that they quit making them is what I'm being told .. I would like this engine to be recalled for all the problems it has given thousands of people

We bought this car at the end of May 2020. When we bought it it had 48,000 miles on it. We have had this vehicle for 14 month and have religiously kept up on maintenance. Started having issues beginning of July 2021. Today, 7/22/2021 we received notice that the car needs a new engine due coolant leaking into the cylinders. We have only put 17,000 miles on this car. There is absolutely no reason for it to need a new engine.

My 2015 Ford Fusion is having an issue where the coolant is leaking into the cylinders. I had new spark plugs and coils replaced twice in less than a week because of this issue because they broke. It’s an issue I have read that a lot of Ford fusions have but no recall has been issued. To fix this problem, Ford gave me an estimate of over $8000 and it should be fixed by ford since it’s a revolving issue with certain models.

I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE TO BE QUICKLY DIAGNOSED AND THE CODE SHOWED UP AS P26CE (ENGINE COOLANT PUMP-OVERSPEED/AIR IN SYSTEM), I THEN CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS COOLANT STILL IN THE TANK AND NOTICED THAT THE TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. SO I THEN TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE SHOP THE FOLLOWING DAY AND THEY SEARCHED FOR THE LEAK. THEY EVENTUALLY FOUND THE LEAK IN THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING. THEY SHOWED ME THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING AND HOW CORRODED IT WAS, THEY THEN HAD TO ORDER A NEW THERMOSTAT HOUSING AND LET ME KNOW THAT THE NEW PART STILL WOULDNT BE A PERMANENT FIX, THAT IN 70,000 MORE MILES THE NEW THERMOSTAT HOUSING WILL BECOME DEFECTIVE AGAIN BECAUSE OF CORROSION. FORD SHOULD OFFER A PERMANENT FIX FOR THE CORRODING THERMOSTAT HOUSINGS!!!

WELL TO START OF I HAVE A 2015 FORD FUSION THAT I BOUGHT IN 2014 AS A 2015 MODEL YEAR PRETTY MUCH IT'S BEEN A GOOD CAR SO FAR. IT HAS BEEN IN A COUPLE OF RECALLS SO FAR NOT SO BIG, BUT AT SAME TIME THEY HAVE TO BE TAKING CARE OF BY MY DEALER WERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY CONCERN NOW IS THAT IS LOOSING COOLANT FROM THE RESERVOIR WHEN IS ON PARK OVERNIGHT. I ALWAYS HAVE TO PUT COOLANT EVERY MORNING TO GET IT GOING OTHERWISE A WARNING LIGHT COMES OFF TO WARN ME ABOUT THE COOLANT BEING LOW. IT'S BEEN LIKE THAT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEK NOW AND IS KINDA TIRING GOING TO THE SAME STEP EVERY MORNING. I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE AND AFTER SEARCHING FOR AWHILE IT CAME UP THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS ME. I READ AN ARTICLE STATING THAT SOME ECOBOOST ENGINES ARE EXPERIENCING LOSS OF ANTIFREEZE AND SOME OF EM EXPERIENCING DIFFERENT KIND OF PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ECOBOOST ENGINES. HONESTLY I DON'T WANT TO GO TO THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE THEY ARE GOING. I'M WONDERING IF FORD IS GOING TO RECALL ALL THE ECOBOOST ENGINES THAT THEY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IT. MINE IS ALREADY GOING THROUGH THE SAME SYMPTOMS LIKE THE OTHER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. HOPEFULLY THE NHSTA STEPS UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT US BUYERS WITH A PROBLEMATIC VEHICLE THAT PEOPLE ARE HOPING TO KEEP IT FOR A LONGTIME TIME LIKE MY SELF. PRETTY MUCH MY WARRANTY EXPIRED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. HONESTLY I DON'T WANT TO PAY OUT OF POCKET IF MY VEHICLE STARTS TO MESSING UP AND TO BE HONEST I'M BEARLY SURVIVING OUT HERE AND WITH THIS PANDEMIC GOING ON IT'S VERY HARD TO COME UP WITH MONEY TO PAY YOUR BILLS AND NOW WITH THIS PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE IT'LL BE HARDER IF IT MESSES UP ON ME. IT'LL BE HARD TO COME UP WITH $7 THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE IN WHICH YOU RELY ON. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS MY CONCERNS THROUGH OUT THIS WEBSITE.

COOLANT LEAK INTO ENGINE FOR 2015 FORD FUSION SE. CAR OVERHEATED ON THE HIGHWAY IN 2020. I TOOK IT TO FORD WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID THE ENGINE WASN'T THE ISSUE AND THAT IT WAS THE COOLANT. THEY BLED IT & PUT NEW. I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. GOT IT FIXED 3 TIMES! TO FIND OUT IT IS THE COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE CYLINDER/ENGINE. MY COOLANT IS EMPTY EVERY 20MILES! MY CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY BUT I ORIGINALLY ASKED FORD WHEN THE ISSUE FIRST HAPPENED !
