Our ford fusion engine suddenly started dying in traffic. When stopping at a light or stop sign in traffic, the idle would drop below 5000 rpms, then suddenly the engine would die. After placing the vehicle in park, we would have to restart the engine. Usually would die after sitting still after about 10 seconds. Sometimes the vehicle wouldn't start backup right away, so we were stuck on the road until it finally decided to start. No check engine light or wrench would display. We took it in to ford dealer and they determined the throttle body was defective. Apparently this is an issue with most ford fusions, as well as other models that use the same throttle body. The vehicle has 80,000 miles on it. Repair costs were over $1000. When is ford going to address this issue for the fusions that were made before 2009?

In 2013 I experienced a loss of speed/power on my 2006 ford fusion. I pulled into a parking space at a shopping center and turned the car off. When the incident happened the wrench light and the traction light where lit on the dashboard display. When I started the car back up the lights were off on the dashboard and the car seemed to run fine. I did not have another incident until 2014. This time the check engine light came on as well as the wrench and traction lights. I took it and had a diagnostic done and was told it was the p code indicating the throttle. I drove the car back home and looked up the p code and found hundreds of complaints regarding this part. It was also being said that this part was defective and that ford had issued a 10 year extended warranty (from time of purchase) on the part. Again, after starting the car the next day it was running fine, no check engine light or any other lights on. It ran fine until june 2015. At this point I had had enough and called the ford dealership where I purchased the car. Mind you, my car only has 51k original miles. I made an appointment and dropped it off on june 24th, 2015. I was called that day and told that ford would not be covering the throttle body because my VIN# was not one listed. I questioned this because the information I found regarding the warranty for the part didn't mention specific vins only. The service person stated that they would fix it but only if I paid for the throttle body part and labor. I picked the car up today, june 25th, 2015 and paid a shocking 788.94 for this part and labor and the 39.99 oil change and tire rotation special. This is insane. I was not in a crash or wreck however it did surge and drop speed to 20 miles an hour with cars behind me slamming on breaks. When will ford decide to do the right thing and cover the cost of this part/repair, when someone is killed?

After slowing down just before the stop sign, my car started to sputter and when I tries to accelerate after the intersection it stops accelerating. I had to limp along to get home. Luckily, I was just about 1.5 miles from home. I have done for this car all scheduled maintenance and never missed the recommended periodical oil changes. I drive less than 5000 miles a year with this car an it has less 59,000 miles on it. This must be due to a defective part from the factory and I should not pay for it. I have left it parked on my driveway until I hear from you and by way of your good offices hopefully from ford. Thank you for kind assistance.

The factory ignition coils began to short against the interior walls of the engine head above the spark plugs. As they shorted it burn the power control module (PCM). With no PCM my spark plugs failed to light, causing my engine become flooded with gasoline, which washed away the lubricants on my cylinder and heads causing all of my cylinders and heads to become damaged. As this happened before I was able to pull over my engine shut off. Causing me to lose power steering and all of the other electrical functioning components. Luckily I was on a fairly quiet road and at somewhat low speeds, but for the many others that have or could experience the same problem might not have been or be as lucky. 2006 ford fusion 3.0l v6.
