SUSPENSION

Potential Consequences:

my vehicle axel and suspension broke while driving vehicle hit driver side curb while in turning left lane at the intersection during the green light to avoid another vehicle driving unsafe. Hitting a curb should not have cause vehicle axel and suspension to collapse. This could have caused major accident because vehicle behind me could have ran into the rear end of my vehicle while in the turning. Also particles were falling from underneath the vehicle while trying to get vehicle over to the far right lane out of the way of other vehicles.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

I purchased a 2018 Fusion in January with 118k miles. 6 months later the engine light came on sometimes it wouldn’t start. Misfires can cause fires and it was absolutely chugging gas. Took it to ford they diagnosed coolant intrusion and said I need the new updated cylinder block. Wasn’t covered under my extended power train warranty I had with the car and it was almost a $9000 fix. I’ve got a lemon on my credit now and ford needs to recall or compensate to this asap

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Engine stalling while driving and stopped, excessive coolant consumption, hard start, white smoke from exhaust. My vehicle has stalled while driving on the highway at 70mph with my 7 year old child in the car with me, my vehicle has also stalled while sitting at a red light or stop sign, this puts myself, my passengers and other vehicle at risk of an accident. I called the dealership today to inquire about my issues and was told there was a FORD customer satisfaction report that was put out on the issues I was having, I Googled the issue and found the 21N12 or 19B37 which expired in November 20, 2022 or 84, 000 miles. The dealership suggested I reach out to Ford. I did this today (7/5/23) spoke with CSR Jerrica who stated there was nothing they could do. I never received the notice regarding this issue and also was told they use a 3rd party to send those out. My engine light came on over the weekend along with the wrench light. I have mentioned the stalling to the FORD dealer previously who stated there were no lights on and could not get the car to recreate the stalling so nothing was mentioned or done. They are now saying since I have issues this falls under the expired customer satisfaction they issued.

Potential Consequences:

Overheating message displaying. For safety the car has a low power mode and it activates. Let’s vehicle sit for 20 mins. Adding coolant lifted the hood container appeared to be empty. Purchasing the ORANGE! coolant auto zone suggested. Added and started vehicle LOAD noises and car overheated again after 1 min. Paid my extended warranty silverrock for diagnostic so many times because this car have been nothing but issues but this overheating issue and belt situation is on going. The gauge isn’t holding pressure. Takes to shop everytime and maintains maintenance. I can provided all documents from the shop visits. My car is safe according to everyone else but I don’t feel safe I’m paying for a car that barely works. It’s always in the shop. Not fair.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

My engines been leaking radiator fluid and I was told there was a recall on the engine block because of this issue. I went to ford and they said they had a recall on it but they didn’t tell me that it expired. Even after I was scheduled for an appt I had to get a flex location to diagnose it and they said that the recall for it expired and they couldn’t do anything about it. Before I took it to ford I took it to 2 car repair shops and they told me the same thing that it was the engine block.

Corrective Action:

My engines been leaking radiator fluid and I was told there was a recall on the engine block because of this issue. I went to ford and they said they had a recall on it but they didn’t tell me that it expired. Even after I was scheduled for an appt I had to get a flex location to diagnose it and they said that the recall for it expired and they couldn’t do anything about it. Before I took it to ford I took it to 2 car repair shops and they told me the same thing that it was the engine block.

Additional Notes:
