Component or system that failed: Flex plate, engine electrical system, and alternator (possible related failures). The issue has been diagnosed by a licensed mechanic and is available for inspection upon request. Incident Description: On April 15, 2025, while driving my 2020 Ford Fusion SE 1.5L Tur
... bo, the vehicle suddenly experienced a total power failure. The check engine light began flashing, and the battery light blinked rapidly. Within seconds, the engine shut down completely while I was mid-drive in traffic, leaving me stuck and unable to move for over 20 seconds. This was a terrifying and dangerous situation that nearly put my life at risk. I was eventually able to restart the vehicle, but it began shaking and rumbling violently — worse than ever before. This issue was never present before my car was involved in two separate collisions, where both other drivers were found 100% at fault. The vehicle was repaired at Fix Auto Santee (a USAA-assigned body shop), but they failed to inspect internal components. A licensed mechanic at J&L Auto Care later confirmed a broken flex plate and advised it was unsafe to drive. This problem has not been addressed or fixed by the responsible insurers (USAA and AAA) or the body shop. It has progressively worsened and now created a life-threatening situation. Warning lamps or symptoms before failure: A rattling and vibrating noise began immediately after I picked up the car from the body shop in March 2025. No lights were initially present. The electrical and engine lights only appeared on April 15 when the engine shut down mid-drive. Inspected by: •Independent service center (J&L Auto Care, diagnosed flex plate failure) •USAA and AAA were informed but refused to cover or further inspect the damage •Fix Auto Santee heard the issue but refused to inspect, citing body-only service Problem available for inspection: Yes — vehicle is currently undrivable and available for full inspection.Read more

For the second time, my truck is repeatedly having "Service electronic braking system" message appear and disappear constantly while driving. This is mixed with "Service ABS system" message that also repeatedly pops up with a audible ding. The warning lights for traction control and ABS repeatedly t
... urn on and off as well. This happens over and over the entire time while driving. We were on a family trip with our 1 year old when this started again most recently. We had to turn back around, drive home and swap trucks and everything in them as we can not have potential brake failure with our 1 year old in the vehicle. The trucks has just over 51,000 miles and this is the second time this has happened. The first time the truck was under warranty, so it was "fixed" by the dealer. I am no longer under warranty. The part to replace is unavailable online, and from what I am reading may be on a national back order with the dealers (I left a message with my dealer who fixed this last time under warranty- have not received a return phone call yet) The last time this was fixed I was told it was the ABS HCU which was replaced. I have looked this up since and learned that this is a known/common issue for the 2017-2018 HD Rams.Read more

I see Dealers are telling people it is a Clock Spring and they are charing up to $ 6,800. to repair. My car only has 56,000. miles on it !!!Read more
