2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID Recalls, Complaints & Safety

Brake lights stay on even after turning off car. According to my research the problem is a brake pedal bumper that deteriorated. I actually found the rubber piece on the floor. Prior to finding out my brakes remained on, the red engine light turned on. I checked recalls for this problem, and there was one, but it was only valid for high humidity States. I live in California so I didn't qualify. Now, due to not knowing what the red light was about, and it being smog time, I cleared the engine light. Well, I didn't know that disqualifies my smog test because other codes were erased.now I have a car that is battery disconnect since I can't drive it due to not smog certified. All because of a rubber brake part falling off. I?called my dealer if it was covered by recall, they said no, even though there IS a recall for humid areas. I don't live in a humid area. So my case shows that it DOES NOT have to be humidity related. It's just a cheap quality part. I'm hoping this changes to include ALL areas. Thank you.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 80 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND SAW MULTIPLE UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHIFTING THE GEAR INTO PARK, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP AND KEPT MOVING FORWARD. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V471000 (POWER TRAIN). THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND THEN TOWED TO AUTOMAX FORD (LOCATED AT 3301 E CENTRAL TEXAS EXPY, KILLEEN, TX 76543, (888) 927-7951). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 111,000.

LEAVING HOME IN THE MORNING, CAR STARTED AND RAN NORMALLY, 1 BLOCK LATER, PRESSED BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. HAD TO REALLY STAND ON IT TO STOP THE CAR. BRAKE SYSTEM, ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES ALL ACTIVATED. PARKING BRAKE LOCKED UP AND THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER. REPLACED PARKING BRAKE SWITCH, REAR BRAKE PADS, AND RODENT-CHEWED WIRING. WORKED FINE FOR A COUPLE MONTHS. THEN, DRIVING CLOSE TO HOME ABOUT 35 MPH, BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. STANDING ON BRAKE PEDAL STOPPED CAR IN (ESTIMATED) DOUBLE NORMAL DISTANCE. ALL BRAKE-RELATED WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES ACTIVATED, PLUS SERVICE REAR PARK ASSIST MESSAGE. PARKING BRAKE LOCKED UP. TOWED TO DEALER. SERVICE WRITER SAW LIGHTS AND MESSAGES, BUT TECHS LATER COULDN'T FIND MALFUNCTION, NO CODES SET. DEALERSHIP MADE NO REPAIRS, SENT ME HOME WITH A CAR I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE. WHEN ASKED IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, THEY PRETENDED NOT TO KNOW, AND DIDN'T PLAN TO CONTACT FORD ABOUT IT. IN MY OPINION, A SOFTWARE OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT CAUSES THE CAR TO LOSE BRAKING IS A PRETTY SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW. ACCORDING TO NTHSA DATABASE AND INTERNET FORUMS, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. AT THE VERY LEAST, GOOD-FAITH BUYERS SHOULD NOT BE LEFT HOLDING THE BAG.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR SHUT OFF. NO WARNING, IT JUST SHUT OFF. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, IT STARTED BACK UP WITH NO PROBLEM.

FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR FAILED TO LATCH. THERE IS NO WAY TO SECURE THE DOOR CLOSED. THIS IS A LIFE-THREATENING DRIVING SAFETY ISSUE AND THEFT ISSUE THERE IS A RECALL ALREADY IN PLACE HOWEVER MY VIN FALLS OUT OF THE PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED RANGE. THE RECALL SHOULD BE REOPENED AND EXPANDED.

I WAS NOT INFORMED BY THE MANUFACTURER ABOUT THIS RECALL OR WHEN AND HOW TO GET IT REPAIRED. I HAD TO FIND OUT ONLINE MYSELF WHEN I WAS SEARCHING MY VIN.

THE HOOD WILL NOT OPEN AND IT IS JAMMED AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT BEFORE, THE PIECES ARE CHEAP AND THEY SHOULDN'T BREAK LIKE THAT

GAS PEDAL COMPLETELY BROKE OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN HEAT TRAFFIC ON A RAINY MORNING. NO ONE AT FORD OR THE DEALERSHIP SHOWS ANY INTEREST IN REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PLASTIC GAS PEDAL; NOT TO MENTION WHAT HAPPENED. THEY ACT AS THOUGH THIS IS A NORMAL MALFUNCTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, THE CONTACT HEARD A THUMPING NOISE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000. *TT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, A LOUD "THUMP" SOUND WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE CONTACT IMMEDIATELY SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO FIRST GEAR TO "CATCH" THE APPROPRIATE GEAR. DIRECTLY AFTERWARDS, THE EMERGENCY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE "STOP ENGINE" MESSAGE APPEARED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE "WHEELS SPIN FREELY" AND THAT THE WHEELS WOULD NOT REMAIN IN THE PARK POSITION.

THE VEHICLE 'TEMPORARILY LOST COMMUNICATION WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL ' BASICALLY THE TOUCHSCREEN FREEZES AND NONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE CENTER CONSOLE WORK. UNABLE TO TURN ON HEAT OR AIR CONDITIONING. THE WINDOWS LOCK AND CAN NOT BE ROLLED UP OR DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN FREE WAY AND ALSO PARKED AT START UP. THIS OCCURRENCE HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL SOME HOW GO BACK TO NORMAL AFTER A DAY. THE LATEST THE VEHICLE HAS LOST COMMUNICATION FOR 4 DAYS. THEY SAY YOU CAN'T LEAVE A KID IN THE CAR WHILE YOU GO INTO A STORE, BUT FORD CAN MAKE IT WHERE I CAN'T ROLL MY WIDOWS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND I HAVE 2 KIDS IN THE CAR AND IT'S 90 OUT. EVEN MORE WHEN IT'S WINTER TIME AND THE WIDOW FOGS UP WHILE DRIVING THERE IS NO WAY TO CLEAR WINDOWS. TO ME IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO NOT BE ABLE TO AT LEAST ROLL YOUR WINDOWS DOWN OR UP BECAUSE AN ISSUE HAPPENS WITH THE VEHICLE COMMUNICATION.

MY CAR WAS MAKING A LOAD NOISE SO I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO REFERRED ME TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE VEHICLE. TOWED THE CAR TO MORGAN HILL FORD STORE IN MORGAN HILL CALIFORNIA AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE WAS NO GOOD, THAT THE MOTOR BOLTS DISLODGED AND MELTED CAUSING THE BOLTS TO SHRED; THE DEALER SERVICE PERSON RYAN ADVISED THAT THE SHREDDED METAL GOT INTO THE OIL AND WENT THROUGH MY ENTIRE ENGINE CAUSING THE ENGINE FAIL. MY CAR WAS ONLY 3.5 YEARS OLD, 90,000 MILES BUT FREQUENT OIL CHANGES WITH THE EXTENDED MAINTENANCE PACKAGE. THERE WAS NO HINT THAT THE CAR WAS HAVING ISSUES, NO ENGINE LIGHT, NOR THE CHECK OIL LIGHT. I HAVE A 2013 FORD FUSION THAT WAS RECALLED FOR FAULTY ENGINE BOLTS.

HELLO EVERYONE. I HAVE A 2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID TITANIUM EDITION. I'VE GONE TO THE SAME DEALER THAT I PURCHASED IT FROM FOR ALL OIL CHANGES AND SERVICE AND TIRES. I HAVE 152,000 MILES ON THAT CAR WHICH IS 2 1/2 YEARS OLD. YES IT'S A LOT BUT IT'S MY COMMUTE CAR. I DRIVE 160 MILES A DAY FOR WORK. LAST WEEKEND MY HUBBY POINTED OUT A NOISE. I THOUGHT ALIGNMENT. BUT THE NOISE SOUNDED LIKE REAR WHEEL BEARINGS THAT FAILED. EVEN THE DEALERSHIP AGREED. THEY CHANGE THEM. BUT IT DIDN'T HELP WITH THE NOISE. AND NOW THEY'RE TELLING ME I NEED A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION ON MY HYBRID. I KNOW WHAT A BAD TRANNY SOUNDS LIKE AND HOW IT MOVES. THERE ARE A HANDFUL OF ARTICLES ON THE INTERNET ABOUT 2014 FORD FUSION HYBRID TRANNY GOING OUT. HONESTLY IT'S VERY RARE. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO SAID HE HAS NEVER SEEN A HYBRID COME IN FOR A NEW TRANNY. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMERSERVICE AND BASICALLY THEY SAID SORRY WE CAN'T HELP YOU. I FEEL FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR 1. THE COST OF THE REPAIR OR 2. THE BUYBACK PROGRAM FOR MY CAR. I'VE LOOKED ON THE BBB REGARDING THE AUTO LINE FOR FORD AND IF THIS DOESN'T GET RESOLVED BETWEEN FORD AND I I'M GOING TO GO THAT ROUTE.

I HAD TO HAVE MY 2014 FORD FUSION REPAIRED ON 11/14/17 DUE TO THE STEERING WHEEL COMING LOOSE. I GOT INTO MY CAR TO DRIVE HOME ON 11/13/17 AND NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL JIGGLED. I DROVE 60 MILES HOME. I TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND HE SAID THAT IT WAS BARELY HANGING ON.

STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY BECAME LOOSE WHILE DRIVING DOWN LOCAL STREET. WAS DRIVING AT 20 MILES PER HOUR. THE MORE I DROVE, THE LOOSER STEERING WHEEL BECAME. WAS ABLE TO RETURN TO MY HOME. WILL TAKE TO DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION. *BF UPDATED 8/6/18*JB

A RECALL FOR THE AIRBAGS HAS BEEN IN EFFECT SINCE NOV 2016. THE STATUS ON THE RECALL IS INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE.

I WAS DRIVING 25MPH ON A NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD WHEN I SLOWED DOWN TO GO OVER A SPEED BUMP. AFTER GOING OVER THE BUMP, I WENT TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR FELT AS IF IT HAD CHOKED AND LOST ALL POWER. WITHIN 30 SECONDS A WARNING ON MY DASH ASKED ME TO PULL OVER SAFELY NOW. AFTER FINDING A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER, I REMAINED IN MY CAR. THE BATTERY LIFE CONTINUED TO RUN DOWN UNTIL IT WAS DEAD AND THE MOTOR NEVER KICKED ON TO RECHARGE IT. IT TURNED ITSELF OFF AND 30 MINUTES LATER I TRIED TO RESTART MY VEHICLE. IT TURNED ON, ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON ITS MOTOR SINCE IT COULD NOT IDLE ON ITS DEAD BATTERY, AND THE CARS WARNING SIGNS CAME ON THEN DIED AGAIN. THERE IS NO EXPLANATION FOR THIS MALFUNCTION AND THE RECALLS MADE ARE NOT RELEVANT TO THE ISSUE OCCURRING. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 8 WEEKS AGO AND IT HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY LOOSE. I WAS FEARFUL IT WAS GOING TO COME OFF IN MY HANDS. I TOOK IT FORD AND THEY FIXED IT. THE CHARGED ME. IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR FUSION AND NOT ISOLATED TO ME AS I WAS TOLD BY FORD.I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE STEERING WHEEL PROBLEM BUT IT IS NOT IN A FORMAT THIS SITE ACCEPTS.

THE BLIS SYSTEM ON THIS CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED A FEW TIMES NOW AND IT IS STILL HAVING ISSUES. EITHER ONE SIDE OF THE BLIS WILL STAY LIT FOR A MILE OR MORE ON THE INTERSTATE WITH NOTHING THERE OR IT WILL FAIL TO ACTIVATE IF A CAR IS LOCATED IN THE BLINDSPOT. OCCASIONALLY, I WILL BE SITTING PERFECTLY STILL AND ONE SIDE OF THE BLIS SYSTEM WILL JUST LIGHT UP FOR NO REASON OR A PROXIMITY SENSOR WILL TRIGGER. THE SYSTEM ON THIS CAR IS UNRELIABLE AND NOT ACTUALLY PROMOTING ANY ADDITIONAL SAFETY. IT SEEMS THE ENTIRE SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE.

EXHAUST IS COMING THROUGH THE AIR VENTS WHEN THE HEAT IS ON. FORD HAS HAD THIS CAR IN THE SHOP IN THE PAST FOR THIS ISSUE BUT IT THE PROBLEM HAS REAPPEARED. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER REPLACED THE FRESH AIR BLEND DOOR. THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR HAS OFFERED TO BUY THE VEHICLE BACK DUE TO NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE.

I WAS DRIVING MY FORD FUSION HYBRID TODAY ON THE INTERSTATE AND HAD A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING, THEN A NOTICED POPPED ON MY DASHBOARD STATING TO STOP SAFELY NOW. I PRESSED THE GAS PETTLE AND THE EV MODE KICKED ON, PROPELLING MY VEHICLE SPEED TO OVER 85 MILES PER HOUR. I WAS EXTREMELY NERVOUS BECAUSE THE FORDS ELECTRIC VEHICLE ENGINES ARE LIMITED TO 85 MPH IN PURE EV MODE. I WAS ABLE TO COME TO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. ALL SEEMED TO BE OK, AS SOON AS I PUSHED THE GAS PETTLE TO GET BACK ON THE HIGHWAY THE INFORMATION DASHBOARD WAS ALARMING ME TO STOP SAFELY NOW. I DID NOT HAVE ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON. I THEN REVVED THE ENGINE TO SEE IF I WOULD EXPERIENCE ANYTHING, THE ENGINE FINALLY CAME ON, THEN REVVED AND I FELT THAT EVEN THOUGH I WAS IN PARK IF MY FOOT WOULD HAVE BEEN OFF OF THE BREAK PETTLE MY VEHICLE WOULD HAVE MOVED FORWARD. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AS SOON AS I FELT THIS THE ENGINE WAS CONSTANTLY REVVING UNTIL I TURNED THE KEY TO THE OFF SWITCH. I THEN HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS DRIVING AT 76 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND COMPLETE FAILURE OCCURRED.

I WENT OUT TO START MY VEHICLE AND GOT WARNING LIGHTS, STEERING ASSIST NEEDS ATTENTION, HILL START ASSIST NEEDS ATTENTION. SERVICE VEHICLE. I HAD NO POWER STEERING AT THIS POINT AND HAD TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. JUST OUT OF WARRANTY AT 37K MILES. THE STEERING GEAR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN THE FORD FUSION MODELS WHICH HAD A RECALL, BUT NO RECALL ON THE HYBRIDS! I'M THANKFUL IT HAPPENED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY.

RECALL 16S42. STILL WAITING ON A REMEDY FOR MY FORD FUSION HYBRID 2014. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE TAKING THIS LONG.

WHILE COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT THE REGENERATIVE BRAKES SUDDENLY LET UP AND THE CAR WAS NOT STOPPING CORRECTLY. I APPLIED FULL FORCE TO THE BRAKES AND THE CAR DID SLOW BUT NOT BEFORE HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE VEHICLE COLLISION WARNING DID NOT COME ON BECAUSE I WAS ALREADY BREAKING.

Crash

I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR 1.5 YRS AND THE MPG IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. I USED TO GET 43 WHEN I GOT THE CAR AND IT HAS STEADILY DECLINED TO 34 MPG. I PAID A PREMIUM FOR A HYBRID THAT GETS THE MILLAGE OF A REGULAR FUSION. I HAVE ASKED 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TO LOOK AT IT WHEN MY CAR IS IN THERE FOR OTHER ISSUES. BOTH RESPONSES HAVE BEEN THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO UNLESS A SYSTEM LIGHT ON. SO I ALSO CONTACTED FORD FROM MY OWNER.COM AND THEY GAVE ME THE SAME RESPONSE. THE LONGER I HAVE IT THE WORSE MILLAGE I GET. I ACTUALLY LOVE THE CAR BUT, I BOUGHT THIS CAR STRICTLY BECAUSE OF THE GAS MILLAGE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO GET 42-47. NOW I AM STUCK WITH A OVER PRICED CAR THAT IF I SOLD IT I WOULD LOSE THOUSANDS ON. I WORK FULL-TIME AND GO TO SCHOOL PART-TIME. I DON'T HAVE MONEY JUST THROW AWAY. PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT FORD WILL DO NOTHING TO HELP THEIR CUSTOMERS.

I WAS COMING HOME FROM WORK AND I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT SAID "STOP SAFELY NOW". ALL OF A SUDDEN MY LIGHTS FLASHED AND MY CAR CUT OFF. MY CAR HASN'T RAN YET. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. FORD, WHEN I CALLED THEN TOLD ME THAT IT WASN'T UNDER A RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR EVERYTHING.
