2012 Ford Fusion Hybrid Other or unknown Problems

“On 2/27, when I tried to open the driver's door to get out of my car, the door would not open. I tried unlocking it to no avail. I had to roll down the window and use the outside door handle to get out. (car was parked in a parking lot) when I took it to the dealer for repair, I was told extended warranty does not cover repair, as there is no recall and it is not a mechanical failure, read your contract. So apparently safety is not an issue to the Ford dealership service department.”

“As I was driving down the highway at 75 MPH, my control panel starting lighting up with a brake light, ABS light, and traction control light. I was terrified that I wasn't going to be able to stop. As I approached the next exit, I tried stepping on the brakes but it was like pushing on air for a good 10-15 seconds before my car would come to a stop. Once the car stopped it would continue to roll slightly. I happen to be taking it for an oil change that day so I had them look at it. I have attached a picture of what the codes read for them. …”

“I have 15,500 miles on my fusion and was informed by Ford (window sticker) that I would have 41 miles per gallon in the city and 36 miles per gallon on the highway. A saving for the increased prices of the hybrid of $1,421 each and every years. I was lied to by the staff at the skillman Ford dealership, I am lucky to get 32 miles per gallon, the same as a regular fusion. I lost money and will not be able to sell the vehicle for the price of a hybrid. Ford motor company cheated me out of money and lied on the window sticker.”

“While turning after coming to a stop, the vehicle traction control and power steering warnings popped up and car lost all power steering ability. The vehicle was no longer safely operable while having no listed error codes. The vehicle has been estimated to require replacement electronic power steering gear at a $2000 price tag.”

“When trying to start the car from park all warning lights illuminated, car would not turn over. Let car reset, and able to turn it over. Ford self system check via dash cluster will show brake and hybrid electric charging system problems but will reset itself after next key cycle. Not able to find codes for problem. Owned car approx 8 months, experienced problem 4 times all within 1 month.”
