FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

CAR DIES WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET OR EXITING FREEWAY. CAUSE UNKNOWN. DRIVING THE FORD FUSION TITANIUM ON CITY STREETS RESULTS IN THE CAR DYING WHILE IN MOTION AS THE SPEED SLOWS, FOR INSTANCE TO MAKE A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN ONTO ANOTHER STREET. WHEN THE CAR DIES I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, A PARKING LOT, OR LEFT TURN LANE WHERE I HAVE TO COMPLETELY TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND TRY RESTARTING. JUST PRIOR TO THE CAR DYING A VIBRATING OR REVVING NOISE CAN BE HEARD FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR PASSENGER DOOR/GAS TANK DOOR AREA. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR AT 55 MPH OR LOWER, AND ESPECIALLY WHILE DECELERATING AT TURNS, RED LIGHTS, OR EXITING A FREEWAY. I HAVE MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF OTHER CARS BUT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE OCCURRENCE WAS ABOUT ONCE EVERY 4 MONTHS UNTIL LATELY THE FREQUENCY INCREASED TO MONTHLY. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR SINCE THIS OCCURRENCE ON 11/4/2018 AS THIS IS TOO DANGEROUS. THE GAS TANK REVVING NOISE SERVES AS ABOUT A 3 SECOND WARNING, WHICH ALLOWED ME TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTIONS. I'M TAKING IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP.
