My son had a 2006 ford fusion that did the same exact thing as i noted…

Pcm failed on a 2007 ford fusion se v6 while on the highway. This resulted in near-immediate electrical failure, stalling the car after app. 30 seconds. User forums online seem to indicate that this is a recurring problem with 2007 fusions, possibly stemming from ecu failure (although opinions are undecided on whether a feedback issue causes the ecu to fail, or the ecu fails and causes feedback). Damage to the car…

The engine control module or pcm burned due to an electrical short at cylinder #4. It is a 2007 ford fusion with 100,000 miles. This appears to be a safety issue and there is was no fail-safe to shut the computer to avoid a possible engine fire. The mechanic advised if this car was driven anymore you would have had an engine fire. *tr
