Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
CAR BEGAN RUNNING HOT WHILE ON INTERSTATE AND IMMEDIATELY SLOWED TO 40MPH IN 70MPH ZONE. BARELY MADE IT OFF INTERSTATE WITHOUT BEING HIT. AFTER WAITING FOR OVER AN HOUR AND FILLING WITH WATER I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME BEFORE IT RAN HOT AGAIN. CODES P1299 AND P0303 ARE SHOWING. WHEN I CALLED FORD I WAS TOLD THEY HAVE HAD TO FIX HUNDREDS OF CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WHICH IS INTERNAL COOLANT LOSS, OVERHEATING, AND MISFIRE OF CYLINDER #3. THIS COSTS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS I WAS TOLD. I JUST FIXED A FAULTY PURGE SOLENOID AND CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THOUSANDS MORE ON THINGS FORD SHOULD HAVE RECALLED!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
RECENTLY, BOTH OF THE FRONT HEATED AND COOLED SEATS ON MY FORD FUSION STOPPED WORKING. I WENT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER, WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR, TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. THEY EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THE BURNT CONNECTOR IS DUE TO A FAILURE OF THE SCME MODULE AND THAT BOTH THE CONNECTOR AND SCME WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $596.11. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT I DON'T BELIEVE THE MODULE IS FAILED, AND THAT REGARDLESS, A MODULE FAILURE SHOULD NEVER RESULT IN A CONNECTOR BURNING AS ALL THIS CIRCUITRY SHOULD BE FUSE PROTECTED AGAINST OVERCURRENT WITHOUT BURNING. I TOLD THEM THAT I BELIEVED THE MODULE APPEARS TO BE FAILED ON THEIR DIAGNOSTICS SYSTEM BECAUSE THE GROUND TO THE MODULE HAS MELTED AND HAS THUS BECOME DISCONNECTED. I COMPLETED SOME INVESTIGATION AND THE FAILURE APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO INSUFFICIENT GROUNDING TO THE SCME MODULE (SEAT CLIMATE CONTROL MODULE) UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT THAT RESULTS IN OVERCURRENT TO A GROUND PIN TO THE SCME, WHICH RESULTS IN THE CONNECTOR MELTING AND BECOMING DISCONNECTED FROM THE SCME. I AM CONCERNED DUE TO FIRE RISK IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AS WELL AS ANY IMPACT THIS FAILURE MAY HAVE ON THE SEAT AIRBAGS. I WAS ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM MYSELF BY REPLACING THE CONNECTOR AND ADDING A SECOND GROUND WIRE TO THE SCME TO PROVIDE PROPER GROUNDING. ATTACHED IS A PICTURE OF THE MELTED WIRE HARNESS CONNECTOR ON MY CAR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
THE ACCESSORY PROTOCOL INTERFACE MODULE (APIM) FAILS AFTER A FEW YEARS, LEAVING THE CAR PHONE INOPERABLE ON THE SYNC SYSTEM, FORCING THE USER TO MANUALLY DIAL AND PLACE CALLS ON THEIR CELL PHONE WHILE DRIVING, WHICH HAS BECOME ILLEGAL IN MANY STATES AS IT TAKES THE DRIVERS EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR PERIODS AT A TIME. THE FORD FUSION ALSO HAS ISSUES WITH LEAKAGE IN THE TRUNK. I WAS UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT I WAS THE ONLY ONE, UNTIL SEARCHING THE INTERNET TO FIND THAT VARIOUS FUSION OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BECAUSE IT MAY START TO AFFECT THE LIGHTS IN THE TRUNK OR ANY OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS THAT RUN THROUGH IT, START TO RUST AREAS IN THE TRUNK, AND CAUSE MOLD IF NOT PROPERLY DRIED IMMEDIATELY.
