    So i have a 2014 fusion, bought pre-owned currently with about 16,000 miles. I recently noticed that my car when accelerating pauses to accelerate. This is especially noticeable trying to go from 0-60 as fast as possible. Also after slowing down and hitting the gas pedal it almost feels like no power is being applied to the engine momentarily. I was stationary, then in motion below 10mph crossing an intersection on…

    While attempting to charge the parked vehicle in my garage, i plugged in the 110-volt charger that came with the car into the wall before plugging it into the vehicle. It sparked and nearly caused a fire. Upon inspection, it was clear the plug was overheating over time and caused a short in the wiring adjacent to the plug. The oem of the unit was made by clipper creek. I reported this issue to clipper creek as well.

    This car just fell apart at 130000 miles. The purge valve failed 3 times. The abs speed sensor pigtail failed. The entire pcm unit board shorted un repairable. The map sensor failed. Ford has charged me 3 times for diagnosis as failures were less then 4 days apart so towed back each time. A pcm complete failure on a car not even 4 years old with only 130000 miles is an issue as they want around $1000 for replacement…

    My 2014 fusion had about 47,000 miles when it suddenly lost power to all but the ignition and lights. After attempting to find the reason at 2 dealerships it was found that the wiring harness that leads to the bcm module was improperly installed and it basically broke. The wiring harness was on back order over 35 days since apparently there are many more of these problems on the 2014 fusion assembled at this plant.…

    The ford fusion on multiple occasions in the last 2 months has suddenly, without warning, lost full throttle power while driving (radio remains on), i.e., gas stops flowing into engine despite attempting acceleration, and the car will on its own come to a stop. So far, have been able to pull over without incident, but obviously it's very scary! This generally occurs shortly after the car has had ignition turned on…
