I purchased a 2010 ford fusion 2 years ago and i have been happy with it up until just recently. The other morning i was on my way to the gym and the car lost total power, sputtered then just died. It started up right away and i was able to make it back home. Needless to say, it had to go to the dealer and the problem has been diagnosed as a throttle body problem. Apparently this has been very common in this year of…

We were traveling on a major interstate when we had to coast to the shoulder when it would not pull anymore. Check engine light came on. After sitting idle it…
