Driving on highway at approximately 60 mph when all power to the engine was lost. The vehicle decelerated quickly as i pulled over to the side of the road. An orange "wrench" light was illuminated on the dash, but no check engine light. Engine was idling roughly and a loud misfiring sound was coming from the exhaust. No matter how hard i pushed the gas pedal, i could not get above 3 mph. I re-started the car, and…

The car started to run rough, the engine light went on, there was no response to the gas pedal. I had enough speed to move to the shoulder. I turned off the car and the issue seemed to resolve itself. I happened two more times in the last three miles to my house. *tr

We were traveling on highway at 65 mph when suddenly lost power, car was shuttering and "wrench" light came on. Since we were going uphill at the time, we lost speed incredibly fast but managed to make it out of traffic lane and onto the shoulder. The car was turned off and then after a minute it restarted and ran ok but we're afraid that it isn't safe to drive until this problem is fixed. It would appear to be a…

Driving to work approx 40 mph, car began to sputter like it was running out of gas, but had 3/4 tank. Wrench light lit up and lost acceleration immediately in the middle of an intersection. Was able to coast to the side of the road. Put car in neutral and tried to rev the engine - thinking maybe dirt in fuel line or fuel filter. No luck. The car did not stall, so i put in back in gear and was able to limp at…

Driving approximately 70mph at night on the interstate when engine stopped producing power. Rough idle and vibration, forcing me to coast to the shoulder. Pressing gas pedal had no effect even though engine was running. I attempted to restart and was successful. This occurred four times during my 30 mile trip. Each time i was forced to coast to the side of the road during moderate traffic. Once on a side street i…

Driving along at normal highway speed the vehicles jerked once and then did not respond to pressing the gas pedal. As i coasted to side of the road, i noticed the rpm gauge sputtering between 500-1100 rpm. As i stopped the vehicle it began to shake. I turned off the ignition and restarted it. I drove another 5 miles and the problem recurred. This happened twice more before i arrived at my job at different speeds. *tr

The car continued to have symptoms after the new battery was installed. I also noticed the…

While driving at approximately 30 miles per hour in my neighborhood, the vehicle lost power and would no longer accelerate. It felt as if the car had violently run out of gas. This caused me to stop rather quickly. I turned the ignition off, waited 3 minutes, and started the car again. At this point, i was able to drive the 0.5 miles back to my home. I took the car to the dealership and the throttle assembly body…

Tried to start vehicle after filling up on gas, already had about 1/4 tank prior to fill up, recently driving for several miles (car is warmed up fully) and it immediately stalled. This had never happened to me, and it occurred to me that just before the gas fill up i noticed somewhat rough engine response in a very short drive from across the street. I've read that there are issue with throttle body faults on…

Driving down interstate and lost all throttle response. Fortunately was able to pull over to the side and turn car off. Re-started and was able to make it home. P2111 error code; sounds exactly the same as hundreds of other complaints about these models. Mechanics all say the same thing, faulty throttle body and needs replacement. Someone needs to step in at some point and force ford to issue a recall. *tr

At the end of an interstate on ramp, the ford fusion clunked,stalled, and the wrench light came on. It was in a very dangerous place. Lots of honking that i could do nothing about. After turning the car off and back on a couple of times, i was able to get it to a less dangerous place. Towed it to the ford garage where they replaced the throttle body. *tr
