    After refueling the vehicle is difficult to start, pumping the accelerator helps but the engine will stall suddenly within a few miles of the fill up. On two occasions i have lost power when driving on a major street with 1/4-1/2 tank of fuel. This stall is preceeded by a loud, disonate noise from the fuel filler. There is www information regarding failed purge valves, but most information is for earlier models. The…

    My vehicle stalls after fueling and also while driving. It seems to be a problem with many ford fusions. While driving, the cap less gas filler will start vibrating and relieving pressure from the fuel system. This is causing the car to act like it is misfiring and run rough. Before i have time to pull off the busy city street the car will shut off and i'm left sitting in the middle of the road trying to get the car…

Car would restart after hard cranking after moving gear shift into park. This would take place at stop lights, in the driveway and on the street while in traffic. Dealer replaced throttle body (part # ds7z 9e926c) after verifying code from…

    Awhile back the car started making strange noises, that came from the fuel inlet behind the gas door, sounding like pressure escaping. Pressing the door in (capless fuel tank) confirms this, as the vacuum is released. Car idles rough, and in some cases, after refueling, it will immediately stall. Upon further research, it seems to happen to quite a few fusion owners, with videos and forums posts to verify. Ford…

    My car since i bought it has had the same issue of turning off either while driving or right after i get gas and not starting back up. I have gotten the purge valve replaced as that is what the dealer said was the issue and one year later i'm having the same issue. It seems this is a huge problem for fords since they recalled over a million ford focus vehicles for the same issue but my model is not on the recall…

    My vehicle makes a noise while driving and this noise comes from the gas tank. It is like a honk sound. To stop the sound, i have to stop the vehicle, open the gas tank and let the air/pressure inside the gas thank out. The smell is some kind of burnt engine or wire. After i have let the air/pressure out, engine warning light turns on for few hours and goes off. There are lots of customers with this same issue and…

    While driving this vehicle the engine misfires decrease in power and completely stops acceleration. It also uses a great deal of fuel. The coolant constantly leaks out and the engine overheats every few minutes. The car also overheats when sitting in a parked position. While driving on the freeway the car slowed to 25mph. We were very close to being involved in an accident.

    My check engine light came on about 3 weeks ago. After i fill up my tank the car won't start. I have to give it a lot of gas as i'm starting it for it to start. Within the past week it would not idle smoothly if i was at a stop sign or stop light. I've noticed this happens when i have around 1/4 tank of gas. Again, i've started putting my foot on the gas while i'm stopped to keep the idle smooth. I was able to get…

    The 2015 fusion had a surge and the car jerked forward. My wife said that happened to her before. When it happened when i was in the car driving it we both looked at each other. This happened to us with the 2010 rav4 and the 2009 sienne that crashed into a tree. Please check this car for a computer problem.
