“Takata recall I currently own a 2015 Ford Fusion se 2.0l turbo as the mileage has increased I have become aware of a problem with the purge vale, as I have having troubling starting my car after I put gas in it along with stalling. After some research I came upon articles of complaints about the same model car with the same purge valve problem. I believe this is a defect in the car that has dangerous safety hazards”

“The rpms rev and shifting hesitates. Was at a stop light, went to drive off from light and it stalled in intersection as it was stuck in gear and finally went into gear. It slow, hard shifts at usual times. The stalling happens out of the blue. I do not go far because I don't want to have an accident from it stalling in gear! I've put so much money on tranny work, this is ridiculous to not have a safe vehicle and have to worry about being stranded.”

“Engine unexpectedly shuts off while driving. While driving at low speed in parking lot I went over a bump and then the engine shut off. Odometer is at approximately 44000. This occurred once before several months ago under the same conditions but I was not sure what to make of it.”

“My engine light came on. So I went to 2 different companies and they told me that there was a misfire in cylinder 2. I replaced the coils and plugs. The engine light came on again so I took it to Ford. There they told me coolant was getting into my cylinders. They told me that it would cost $6,731 to fix a problem that multiple people with the same car and multiple different years are having. The car still moves but now it's overheating every 3 minutes.”

“The 2015 Fusion had a surge and the car jerked forward. My wife said that happened to her before. When it happened when I was in the car driving it we both looked at each other. This happened to us with the 2010 rav4 and the 2009 sienne that crashed into a tree. Please check this car for a computer problem.”
