At first the rpm's would increase ( around 500 rpm's) when the car upshifted when it was cold. As the motor and transmission warmed up the increase in rpm's upon upshift lessened. It appeared to me that the transmission was "slipping" as it went through the gears...you could hear the engine speed up and watch the tach to confirm what i was hearing from the engine. I took car to dealer and they checked it out. They…

I have had numerous problems with stalling, loss of acceleration, dying with my fusion. It hesitates when driving and stalls when driving and stopped. The wrench and engine light are on again. I am very concerned for my safety due to these issues as there is never any warning of when it's going to occur. I have previously had my throttle body repaired/replaced but the same problems continue.

Hail damage, paintless dent repair, could be reason for unexplained tire tread wear, and/or knocking sound when backing up and turning. My fusion is still under warranty. Please advise with any information that may be helpful.

When shifting from first gear to second gear the car will very roughly go into gear, and second to third and third to fourth is not much better. From fourth to fifth and fifth to sixth is fine most of the time. I had two calibration updates performed by the ford dealership i purchased the car from and was told to drive the car and let the update set in. After both times i noticed that the problem did not go away,…
