2011 Ford Fusion Hybrid Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“I was driving right before entering the highway when my brakes suddenly went out and the service advanctrac and power steering lights came on. I stopped my car at the light and proceeded to turn it off and then back on. The problem seems to have went away; however, this is not the first time this has happened.”

“After filling up my tank, I proceeded to exit out of a quiktrip parking lot, back onto the street, when my brakes failed to stop the car. Luckily enough, this did not cause an accident and I was able to pull the car over in a nearby parking lot. After pulling over the service advancetrac light came on, in addition to the check brake system light. I checked the fluids, which all seemed to be fine. However, the brakes would not stop the vehicle unless pressed completely to the floor. This drastically affected the stop time which would definitely lead to an increased risk of an accident. …”

“While driving on the freeway the car flashes yellow triangle, wrench and the stop safely now. The car loses all power causing you to try to drift to the side of the freeway. It has been in the repair shop for 5 months with certified hybrid mechanics. Was told it was the transmission, that was repaired. The throttle, repaired. Harness wiring replaced along with a new battery. This is an ongoing problem with no resolution. The safety of not just myself, but my family and others have been put at risk. I would like to speak with someone regarding this issue. The car has 125,000 miles on it.”

“When decelerating, my car sometimes jerks , accompanied by multiple warning lights and--dangerously--a total loss of engine power. The car goes dead, in the middle of the road, and has to be restarted by removing the key and reinserting it. This could cause a collision both from behind (by someone who doesn't realize that the car has just died --especially at night), as well as the jerk potentially causing me to collide with someone in front. My dealership told me that Ford had put out a bulletin regarding this issue, which called for the installation of a new wiring harness. …”

“While driving on free way from columbus to pittsburgh, wrench symbol appeared on the dash. After a while, car lost its transmission power in the middle of the highway with an indication of stop safely now on dash board with big red triangle signal.”
