SAFETY RECALL 13S04

My fuel tank has an excessive build up of gasses and it causes a loud burping noise at the fuel door flap. I do have a Video of this incident.

An unknown component of the fuel system is faulty, causing a very strong odor of fuel to enter the cabin upon starting up, as well as when coming to a stop & idling. The manufacturer has not inspected the vehicle, but an automotive technician confirmed the odor and attempted to remedy the problem by replacing the evaporative system lines, with no change. Fuel lines and tank/vent were inspected, with no fault found. The odor can cause a feeling of illness & headache when driving. It is unknown if there is a leak which could lead to a fire. No warning lamps.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving 72 MPH, the vehicle began shaking and then stalled. The vehicle was able to restart after the fifth attempt and the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the EVAP system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to file a complaint. The failure mileage was approximately 197,000.

When putting gas and or driving in low idle car stalls As if the fuel pump is bad

Gasoline leak from gas tank. The fuel sender failed at 60,000 miles, had it replaced. Vin not under recall. Now fuel leak from replaced fuel sender. Again Vin not in recalled units. WTF?

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed with his son inside the vehicle, he smelled an abnormal fuel odor.

The failure mileage was approximately 87,000.

When my fuel tank is filled the vehicle won't start and while driving the vehicle will stall out. The code on the check engine light comes back as P1450. This is telling me the canister purge valve needs replaced. After researching online I see this is a common problem for the 2013 Ford Fusion.

My car doesn't start after getting gas, it stalls while driving (which is very scary), feels like it's not getting enough gas at times and then will jump forward like it got too much gas at times. I took it to get it tested and was told it's the purge valve. This has been recalled in older models of the Fusion, as well as the Ford Focus. I have the same issue, but the 2013 isn't included in the recall. It needs to be covered under the recall because I'm sure my vehicle is not the only one. It's a huge issue, as it's not safe to drive.

2013 FORD FUSION TITANIUM: ENGINE SHAKES THEN SHUTS ITS SELF OFF WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND DRIVING (HUGE SAFETY ISSUE,) TAKES A MINUTE TO START THEN EITHER RUNS FINE OR SHUTS OFF AGAIN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP LAST YEAR (2020) AND THEY REPLACE A FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON THEN WHEN OFF AFTER A COUPLE DAYS. THE CODE WAS THE SAME AS LAST TIME. I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH FORD ON FRIDAY. I SPEND SO MUCH MONEY REPAIRING THIS CAR. I'D RATHER TRADE IT IN THAN FIX A NEW AND OLD PROBLEM EVERY 4 MONTHS.

A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED CAUSING THE OWNER (MYSELF) TO TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AS THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE AND LOW PRESSURE FUEL SENSOR SIMULTANEOUSLY FAILING. THE ONLY WARNING SIGNS PREVIOUSLY WAS THE CAR STALLING AND TURNING OFF (DASH BOARD STAYED ILLUMINATED). THIS WOULD HAPPEN AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND EITHER PUTTING THE CAR INTO REVERSE OR DRIVING WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR THIS ISSUE AND AN ISSUE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE IDENTIFIED AT THE TIME. UPON OWNER INVESTIGATION AT A LATER DATE, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THESE ISSUED HAD BEEN REPORTED TO BE RELATED.

PURGE VALVE STICKING.

MY VEHICLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON , SCANNED IT AND THE CODE GENERATED WAS P1450 WHICH IS THE UNABLE TO BLEED UP FUEL TANK VACUUM. THIS HAS HAD A AFFECT ON MY CAR WHILE DRIVING IT HAS STALLED AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY, AND HAS STALLED AT LOWER SPEEDS AS WELL AND MAKING A TURN . IT MAKES A LOUD VACUUM NOISE AND YOU CAN HEAR THE WHINING OR WHISTLING OF THE PUMP OR HOSE NEAR THE FUEL TANK UNDER THE DRIVER DOOR AND UNDER THE HOOD . I LOOKED UP SIMILAR INFO ON THE FORD RECALL SITE AND SEEN THIS RECALL # 18S32 . SO I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THE INFORMED ME THAT IT DON'T COVER MY FORD VEHICLE , BUT THERE'S A RECALL FOR THIS , SO I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IT DON'T APPLY TO MY VEHICLE.

FUEL FILL INLET LIGHT ON. VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE AFTER SECOND GEAR.

INTERMITTENTLY THE VEHICLE WOULD IDLE ROUGH AFTER FILLING GAS TANK. ALSO AFTER A 30 MIN OR SO DRIVE IT WOULD STALL AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY AND THEN BE VERY DIFFICULT TO RESTART AND IDLE VERY ROUGH. IT WOULD ALSO MAKE A POPPING NOISE THAT WOULD COME FROM THE GAS TANK. *TR

MY FORD FUSION WAS IN MOTION WHEN I NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE FROM THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION I NOTICED THAT MY FUEL LEVELS WERE DECREASING RAPIDLY, MY CAR WAS NOT GOING FORWARD, AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR; ALL OF GAS WAS LEAKING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. I SEE THAT MY MAKE AND MODEL WAS RECALLED FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE (FORD'S RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER IS 13S04) BUT MY VIN IS NOT LISTED FOR THAT RECALL BUT IT SEEMS TO BE THE EXACT SAME ISSUE STATED IN RECALL NUMBER 13S04.

I TRY MAKE THIS COMPLAINT TWICE NOW AN GIVES A ERROR THIS IS SERIOUS MY CAR IS BEING STALLED ON HIGHWAY DUE TO PURGE VALVE AN TODAY THE CAR IS MAKING A NOISE FROM THE GAS TANK FROM WHAT I'M TOLD MY CAR TURNED OFF BECAUSE OF THIS PURGE VALVE ME AN MY KIDS COULD HAVE BEEN HURT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATED ALONG TIME AGO PEOPLE HAVE MADE COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE I'M HAVING !! I JUST REPLACED MY FUEL PUMP AT DELEARSHIP NOT LONG AGO NOW THIS ISSUE ! DO HAVE VIDEO OF THE CAR MAKING THIS NOISE FROM GAS TANK AN ALSOCAR IS RELEASING A STRONG FUME SMELL

CODE P0087 FUELRAIL/SYSTEM PRESSURE TOO LOW

AFTER DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND I GOT OUT, I SMELLED GASOLINE. I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND ALL AROUND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND COULD NOT SEE ANY LEAKS. I USED A FLASHLIGHT AND A MIRROR BUT DID NOT REMOVE ANY PANELS. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS JUST FUMES, BUT THE GASOLINE SMELL WAS JUST AS STRONG AFTER I DROVE THE CAR THE NEXT TIME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE UNDER BODY FUEL LINES JUST FORWARD OF THE FUEL TANK WERE RUSTED THROUGH AND LEAKING. THERE IS A RETAINING CLIP THAT SECURES THE LINE AND THAT IS WHERE THE LINE WAS RUSTED. THERE WAS NEVER EVIDENCE OF A FUEL LEAK OTHER THAN THE SMELL, BECAUSE THE SPLASH GUARD THAT GOES UNDER THE FUEL LINE WAS PREVENTING THE LEAK FROM MAKING IT TO THE GROUND. I COULD NOT SMELL THE GASOLINE WHILE DRIVING, ONLY AFTER EXITING THE CAR.

AFTER I FILL THE GAS TANK AND PARK MY CAR IN THE GARAGE, I CAN SMELL GAS. AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN A FEW MILES THE SMELL GOES AWAY. THE SMELL IS ONLY PRESENT RIGHT AFTER I FILL THE TANK UP UNTIL THE FUEL LEVEL DROPS DOWN FROM FULL. THIS ONLY STARTED ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO BUT HAS BEEN PRESENT EVERY TIME THE TANK HAS BEEN FILLED SINCE THEN. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM (13S04) SO I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER TO TRY TO GET IT FIXED UNDER THE RECALL. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I AM PRETTY SURE THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT THE RECALL WAS CREATED TO FIX SO I THINK THAT FORD SHOULD RE-LOOK AT WHAT CARS THEY ARE WILLING TO REPAIR. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THEY EASILY COULD HAVE OVERLOOKED SOME CARS THAT HAD THAT PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ALSO, EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE WAS FUELED, IT WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED TWO YEARS AGO BY LENOIR CITY FORD (775 US-32, LENOIR, TN 37771). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR REPAIRED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

AFTER I DRIVE THE CAR, AND TURN IT OFF, THEN COME BACK 30-45 MINUTES LATER, AND START THE CAR UP, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF OR I DRIVE IT 200FT., THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY, AND THEN TURNS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE PARKED AND WHILE MOVING IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING AT LOW SPEEDS.

SMELL OF GASOLINE, BOTH WHEN IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. GETS WORSE WHEN FILL THE TANK WITH GAS. THE SMELL IMPROVES WHEN I SET THE CABIN AIR TO RECYCLE.

MY CAR AND ALOT OF OTHER CARS FROM THE FORD FUSION MODEL HASE A KNOWN ISSUE ALSO A RECALL OF THE FUEL PUMP. ERROR CODE P00C6. THAT MAKES THE CAR STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING. ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I ALSO PUT THE ISSUE ON YOUTUBE AND MENY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS CLEARLY A RECALL.

MY CAR IS AROUND 86,000 MILES AND IN THE PAST MONTH STARTED TO SHUT OFF AFTER ABOUT A 30 MINUTE DRIVE. MY FUSION MAKES A SOUND DISTINCTIVE SOUND BEFORE THIS HAPPENS, SOMEWHAT LOUD AND GOES IN AND OUT. ENGINE COMPLETELY SEIZES IF I'M COMING TO A STOP AND I HEARD THE SOUND. CAR ALSO HAS TROUBLE STARTING AFTER REFUELING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL WAS DETECTED COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FAIRWAY FORD (2323 LAURENS RD, GREENVILLE, SC 29607, (864) 242-5060) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CONTACT WAS CURRENTLY AWAITING THE TEST RESULTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

CAR STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING WHEN THE CAR HAS PLENTY OF FUEL. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL GO ON THEN GOES OFF BUT THE SAME ISSUE IS HAPPENING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL ALSO A RECALL WAS ISSUES BUT LOOKS LOKE THEY MISSED MY CAR. CAR STALLS OUT WHEN IM IN TRAFFIC. REALLY WHENEVER IT WANTS TO

THE FORD FOCUS WAS RECALLED FOR FUEL INJECTION ISSUES BUT MY FUSION ALONG WITH MANY OTHER ISSUES HAS THE SAME ISSUE.

CAR CUTS OFF AND WILL NOT START CODE READS FULE RAIL

THE IDLE OF MY ENGINE IS ROUGH AND WHEN AT A LOW IDLE IN TRAFFIC IT FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING TO STALL. LATELY, MY CAR COMPLETELY STALLED DRIVING AT LOW SPEED UP A PARKING STRUCTURE. IT COMPLETELY STALLED AGAIN WHEN PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY. I TOOK IT IN, BUT THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIND A SENSOR TRIGGERING THE ISSUE.

CURRENTLY OUR VECHICLE IS BACK IN THE DEALERSHIP. WE ARE A FORD DRIVING FAMILY. THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE. EVERY RECALL. WE HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP, DUE TO AIR IN TANK. THEN PAID 2000$ AND HAD IT FOR 2WKS. THIS WAS AT THE END OF JULY 2018. FOR LECTRONIC ISSUE. NOW, THE NEW PROBLEM THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. WE WERE BACKING OUT OF OUR DRIVE. BLACKTOP DRIVEWAY. ONCE YOUR SHIFT INTO DRIVE FORWARD THE CAR SHUTS OFF. A MECHANIC SYMBOL APPEARS. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE AUTOMAX FORD SERVICE IN KILLEEN TX 76544. THIS IS A BAD SIGN. WE DID BUY IT USED, THINKING IT WAS A GOOD DEAL BUT THINK THIS VECHICLE HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. IT HAD HAIL DAMAGE ON IT THAT THE DEALER DIDN'T EVEN SEE THAT, I DID AND THEY FIXED THAT. I TOLD THE DEALER THIS WILL BE THE LAST FORD VECHICLE.THIS EXPERIENCE IS LEAVING A BAD TASTE IN OUR MOUTHIES. WE ARE SEEKING SOME ASSISTANCE HERE ON THIS PROBLEM. RESPECTFULLY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL FLAP WAS NOT SEALED TIGHTLY AND CAUSED AIR TO ENTER INTO THE FUEL LINES. IN ADDITION, THE SERVICE ENGINE INDICATOR RANDOMLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PORTER FORD (600 OGLETOWN RD, NEWARK, DE 19711, (302) 738-0800) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL FLAP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

WHEN HAVING THE CAR SERVICED, I WAS ASKED IF I WAS AWARE OF THE SMELL OF GAS AND THE VISUAL LEAK. I WAS NOT, AS MY NOSE WAS DAMAGED AND I HAVE NO SENSE OF SMELL. ONLINE, FORD RECALL NOTICE 13S04 DESCRIBES MY PROBLEM. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER CARE ONLY TO BE ADVISED MY VEHICLE IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE RECALL. I HAVE BEEN DIRECTED TO GO TO A FORD DEALER TO AS ABOUT AN EXAMINATION OF THE CAR.

I BOUGHT MY FUSION 6 MONTHS AGO, AND HERE LATELY I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING STALLING ISSUES. IT TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR A WHILE. I WILL SIT IN MY DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL PARKING LOT TO WAIT FOR HER TO GET OUT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE SHUDDERS AND STALLS. AND OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING IN THE PARKING LOT AT LOW SPEED, AGAIN IT SHUDDERS AND DIES. WE HAVE CHANGED A COUPLE PARTS(HIGH FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR, FUEL SENDING UNIT, AND THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP) NOTHING SEEMS TO BE HELPING THE ISSUE.

MY 2013 FORD FUSION DIES AFTER IT WARMS UP AS I GO INTO A INTERSECTION IT DIES HAVE TO RESTART IT. COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. ALMOST SCARED TO DRIVE IT. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS THIS THANK YOU

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN STALLING OUT AFTER FUELING, AS WELL AS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, AND AT RED LIGHTS. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, AND THE DIAGNOSTICS INDICATING IS WAS "LOW FUEL PRESSURE" READING, SO THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP. TWO DAYS LATER, I FILLED UP WITH GAS AND IT STALLED OUT WHILE IN MOTION AT 40 MILES AN HOUR, AND WITHIN 15 MINUTES, IT STALLED AGAIN AT THE RED LIGHT. I CAN FEEL THE CAR BEGINNING TO STALL, SO I PUT IT IN PARK, SO I CAN GIVE IT GAS... SOMETIMES THIS WORKS AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY INSTANCES WHERE I'M IN THE INTERSECTION, AT A MEDIAN, OR IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC WHEN THE CAR WILL STALL OUT... THIS IS VERY CONCERNING, AND DANGEROUS... MY LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS COULD BE IN DANGER DUE TO A FAULTY SYSTEM.

BAD MANAGEMENT VALVE PART #DG9Z90279D NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. TOLD IT WAS ON BACK ORDER FOR THE NEXT 2-3 MONTHS. OVER 750 PENDING ORDERS. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH SOME VEHICLES BEING RECALLED FOR REPAIR. THIS VEHICLE ISN'T ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IN MY OPINION SHOULD BE BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY CONCERNS THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR. THIS FAULTY VALVE IS CAUSE PRESSURE TO BUILD UP IN THE FUEL TANK THAT COULD POSSIBLE CAUSE AN EXPLOSION OR FIRE. WAITING 2-3 MONTHS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. ALSO, NO WARNING TO MYSELF WAS PROVIDED FROM THE 2 DEALERSHIPS THAT DIAGNOSED MY VEHICLE AND THAT I TALKED TO TO GET THIS PART. I ONLY FOUND OUT BY DOING EXTENSIVE RESEARCH. PROBLEM STILL ISN'T FIXED, WAITING ON PARTS.

ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH. AFTER IT STALLS YOU CAN PUT IT IN PARK, APPLY BREAK AND IT WILL RESTART. THIS IS NOT A GOOD THING TO HAPPEN ON A HIGHWAY. NO FAULT CODE OR SERVICE LIGHTS. IT ALWAYS DOES THIS AFTER IT HAS SET FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER RUNNING AND THEN WILL STALL ABOUT THE TIME YOU GET ON THE ROAD. ( 200 FEET )

THIS 2013 FORD FUSION HAS BEGUN RANDOMLY SPUTTERING AND THEN STALLING WHEN ACCELERATING (THE VEHICLE HAS 95,000 MILES ON IT). YOU CAN PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART IT JUST FINE, BUT THEN MAY DO IT AGAIN IN 30 SECOND OR NEVER AGAIN THE REST OF THE TRIP. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE AN ISSUE IF THE CAR IS COLD OR HAS BEEN SITTING A LONG TIME. IT TENDS TO APPEAR ONCE YOU STOP FOR 10-20 MINUTES AND GET BACK IN THE VEHICLE - BUT EVEN THEN, CAN BE HIT AND MISS. LATELY IN THIS SCENARIO IT'S BEEN STALLING 2 TO 3 TIMES BEFORE RUNNING FINE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A RECOGNIZED FORD ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. WHILE FORD APPEARS TO RECOGNIZE THIS ISSUE AND HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON SOME 2013 FORD FUSIONS (UNDER CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03), I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT PROGRAM. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS QUOTED AT $875 PLUS TAX OF WHICH ONLY $120 WAS LABOR - THIS MAKES THE PART $755. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT FORD IS NOT ADDRESSING THIS ACROSS THE ENTIRE LINE. I HAVE ALREADY BEEN IN MULTIPLE PLACES WHERE I HAVE HAD TRAFFIC COMING AT ME OR BEHIND ME WHEN THE VEHICLE FAILS. IN FACT, THE OTHER DAY IT DIED PULLING OUT OF A STORE IN FRONT OF TWO ONCOMING LANES OF TRAFFIC - FORTUNATELY BOTH VEHICLES COMING DIRECTLY AT MY DRIVERS SIDE WERE ABLE TO GET THEIR VEHICLES STOPPED BEFORE T-BONING ME. PLEASE REQUIRE FORD TO EXPAND ITS PROGRAM.

I OWN A 2013 FORD FUSION WITH 94,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A ONE LANE ROAD AND THE GAS PEDAL BECAME UNRESPONSIVE. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG PRIOR TO THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION CONTROL. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER ACCELERATION/THROTTLE; HOWEVER, POWER REMAINED ON IN THE VEHICLE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN A WRENCH LIGHT THAT SAID CHECK MANUAL. I WAS TRAVELING 65MPH AND HAD TO PULL OVER. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN AND IT STARTED UP. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR SHOP PERFORMED A FUEL SYSTEM SERVICE AND CLEARED THE CHECK ENGINE AND CHECK MANUAL LIGHTS. FOUR DAYS LATER AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I HAD TO PULL OVER 3 TIMES AND ONCE WHERE I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND TURN BACK ON IN THE ONE LANE ROAD AS THERE WAS NO PULL OFF AREA. AFTER THE LAST TIME I RESTARTED THE CAR, I HAD A REDUCED THROTTLE BUT MANAGED TO MAKE IT ABOUT 2 MILES TO WORK (AT THIS POINT THE SPEED IS REDUCED TO 45MPH). I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SAME REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR SHOP HAD THEIR MASTER MECHANIC LOOK AT THE VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT FORD ISSUED A CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03. THIS WAS TO INCLUDE CERTAIN 2009 THROUGH 2013 MODEL YEAR FUSION, MILAN, ESCAPE AND MARINER VEHICLES. I CONTACTED FORD AND WAS TOLD BASED ON THE VIN NUMBER THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS VEHICLE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS THOSE WITH THE VINS IN THE CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH NO PRIOR WARNING OTHER THAN THE SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION/THROTTLE.

2013 FORD FUSION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE MPG ISSUES. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE HARDLY EXCEEDS 19 MPG IN THE CITY AND NEVER EXCEEDED 31 MPG ON THE FREEWAY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE MPG ADVERTISED WAS MERELY AN ESTIMATE. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE ESTIMATE WAS TOO FAR OFF. UPDATED 09/11/2017*JS

CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE AND WONT ACCELERATE. SOMETIMES CLEARED WITH ENGINE RESTART. THEN IT GOT WORSE AND THROTTLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ENGINE AT ALL. CAR WAS TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP. BAD THROTTLE BODY DIAGNOSED. OVER 800.00 TO FIX. I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT FORD THROTTLE BODIES ON FUSIONS AND MANY ARE WARRANTIED UNDER FORD CSP 13N03, BUT APPARENTLY MY FORD ISN'T COVERED. NOT SURE WHY.

I WENT TO A GAS IN TOWN AND FILLED UP MY CAR AND ONLY GOT 223 TO A FULL TANK AND THEN IT SLOWLY CREEPED UP AS I WAS DRIVING IN TOWN TO 289. BUT I NORMALLY GET 330-350 TO A FULL TANK. BUT WHEN I FIRST GOT IT AND THE DEALERSHIP FILLED IT UP, I GOT OVER 400 TO A FULL TANK.

GAS IS LEAKING FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. FIRST NOTICED A GAS SMELL FROM THE AIR VENTS SO I INITIALLY THOUGHT A LEAKING INJECTOR, HOWEVER WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR IT WAS CLEARLY LEAKING GAS FROM SOMEWHERE. I DID SOME MINOR RESEARCH AND SAW THAT THIS YEAR HAS SEVERAL RECALLS FOR LEAKING FUEL SYSTEMS HOWEVER I CAN'T FIND A RECALL FOR THIS UNDER THIS PARTICULAR VIN.

WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEED (LESS THAN 10MPH) THE CAR BEGINS TO RUN VERY ROUGH, RPM DROPS, AND WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, THERE IS NO POWER, AND THE CAR THEN DIES. IT CAN BE RESTARTED, BUT IT'S A BIT HARDER THAN NORMAL, AND THEN IT RUNS. TWICE HAPPENED IN PARKING LOTS, BUT ONCE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A PARKING LOT, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. DEALERSHIP HAS CHARGED $190 ONLY TO TELL ME THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. FORD CASE #CAS11900027

CAR DIES WHILE IDLING. WAS PULLING ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY ON SATURDAY WHEN IT COMPLETED DIED, WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY PUT CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTART IT.

FUEL LEAKING AND YOU ALL SENT OUT A RECALL 13V227000 ON 05/31/2003 WHICH FORD IS SAYING THAT MY CAR IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE THEY RECALLED CARS BUILT ON FEB 11, 2003 & MY CAR WAS BUILT FEB 20,2003 IN THE SAME FACTORY IN HERMOSILLO, MEXICO. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 1 YEAR AGO & I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE TO REPLACE THIS PART. THE VEHICLE IN INOPERABLE AT THIS POINT DUE TO THE FUEL LEAKING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE RECALL SENT OUT BY NHTSA DOES NOT SPECIFY A MODEL OR BUILD DATE THEREFORE; CARS BUILD WITHIN THE SAME MONTH IN THE SAME FORD PLANT SHOULD'VE BEEN HONORED. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR A $300 PART FOR I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT WITH LIMITED INCOME.

THE FUEL PURGE VALVE IS STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION AS DIAGNOSED BY MY RESEARCH AND LATER CONFIRMED BY THE DEALERSHIP. UPON DOING RESEARCH, THIS MODEL OF PURGE VALVE WAS INSTALLED IN ALL 2009+ FORD VEHICLES AND A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR 2009-2011 VEHICLES, YET IT IS STILL BEING USED IN THE NEWER MODELS AND FAILING. I AM BEING CHARGED $565 BY THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT FORD HAS NOT TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY FOR. FUSION MODEL YEAR 2013, APPROX. 50K MILES, AIR PURGING FROM THE FUEL TANK (OUT OF 'CAPLESS' OPENING), CAR SHUDDERS REGULARLY AND MORE SO WHEN I FIRST PUT GAS IN IT. HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS; CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FINALLY CAME ON YESTERDAY.

MY CAR IS STALLING WHEN I PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD IT TO THE FORD DEALER AND GET THE SAME ANSWER EVERYONE ELSE SEEMS TO BE GETTING" WE DON'T KNOW IF WE CAN'T GET THE CAR TO DO IT BECAUSE THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I EVEN TOOK IT TO A CHEVROLET DEALER TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIGURE IT OUT BUT SAME THING BUT I DIDN'T EXPECT THEM TO FIX IT WAS JUST HOPEFUL. I EXPECT FORD TO BE ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG NOT GUESS WORK THAT GETS A BIT EXPENSIVE. FORD HAS BEEN NOTHING SHORT OF RUDE AND UNCONCERNED. EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN ON LINE. ECO-BOAST ESPECIALLY. A RECALL OR JUST FIGURE IT OUT AND I WILL PAY TO FIX IT. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE A TEENAGE SON WHO DRIVES HE HAS HIS OWN CAR BUT FOR LONG TRIPS I PREFER HE DRIVE MY CAR WITH ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES, BUT NOW I WOULD NOT DARE LET HIM DRIVE IT. HE HAS A 2004 FORD TAURUS THAT IS SAFER FOR HIM TO DRIVE THEN MY CAR.

2013 F USION 1.6 TURBO FUEL VAPOR PURGE VALVE WENT BAD AND FORD DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED , THE INTERNET SAYS THE 2013 AND ALL WAY BACK TO 2010, THIS CAR IS A BIG PROBLEM ALL OF THE RECALL I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS, WHEN THE INTERNET SAYS THE VALVE SHOULD BE COVERED.

MULTIPLE TIME MY CAR "SURGES" WHILE DRIVING. I'M AFRAID THAT THIS WILL CAUSE ME TO "SURGE" INTO TRAFFIC. OTHER TIMES WHILE DRIVING, THE FUSION JUST DIES.

I ONLY SEEM TO BE ABLE TO FILL THE 16.5 GALLON TANK WITH 13.5 GALLON'S OF FUEL.

FORD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY PROBLEMS...WHILE I WAS DRIVE BACK FROM PHILADELPHIA ON SATURDAY NIGHT, MY CAR BEGAN TO HAVE MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. WHILE GOING UP A HILL ON I95 AFTER CROSSING THE LONG BRIDGE, I EXPERIENCED DRASTICALLY REDUCE SPEED. EVEN WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS, NOTHING HAPPEN. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS SO I IMMEDIATELY PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHT BUT THE CARS WERE COMING UP ON ME FAST AND SWERVING TO AVOID HITTING ME. WITH MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, I WAS ONLY ABLE TO MAINTAIN A SPEED OF 40 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT UP THE HILL AND BY STAYING IN THE SLOW LANE. ONCE I GOT TO A STOPPING PLACE, I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. I WAIT A LITTLE WHILE THEN TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON. IT STUDDAR BUT STARTED AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I USE THE CARS INTERNAL ENGINE CHECK WHICH SHOWED NOT PROBLEMS SO I CONTINUE UNTIL I MADE IT BACK TO MY HOME. THE NEXT DAY THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND IT WOULD NOT START. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHO DIAGNOSTICS SAID IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART IN MY MODEL YEAR. THERE IS A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BUT FORD IS SAYING MY CAR IS INELIGIBLE. THE PROGRAM ADDRESS CAR FROM 2009 TO 2013.

CAR STALLED AND WENT INTO LIMP MODE (LIMITED POWER) SEVERAL TIMES OVER A 3 WEEK PERIOD. IT WOULD STALL AT TIMES WHEN BACKING OUT OF PARKING PLACES. AT A STOP LIGHT ON A BUSY ROAD, IT STARTED SHAKING AND RUNNING ROUGH, DEALER COULD NOT FIND CAUSE AND SENT CAR HOME. DRIVING DOWN A STREET 2 DAYS LATER, IT LOST ALMOST ALL POWER LIKE IT WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS, BARELY MADE IT TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS HARD TO RESTART. AFTER SEVERAL DAYS, DEALER STATES THE ISSUE WAS FOUND TO BE A FAULTY FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR. CAR ONLY HAD 23,700 MILES ON IT.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE GAS TANK STARTED MAKING A VIBRATING NOISE. I LOOKED IT UP AND IT SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE BUT THERE WAS ON OTHERES??? I WANT THIS FIXED I HAVE AND INFANT AND A TODDLER IN MY VEHICLE AND IT IS UNSAFE TO RIDE IN.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER:14V597000 (AIR BAGS , SEAT BELTS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

2013 FORD FUSION SE 2.0LT ECOBOOST ENGINE - BOUGHT MARCH 2014 ABOUT 33,000 MILES. MY ISSUES STARTED AROUND THE END OF MAY 2014. 1. WHEN COMING TO AN IDLE MY CAR ALWAYS ACTS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL. IT IDLES REALLY HARD AND THE RPMS ALWAYS JUMP REAL LOW. THERE ARE NEVER ANY WARNING LIGHTS/MESSAGES THAT APPEAR. 2. EXTREMELY POOR GAS MILEAGE - THIS IS A 4 CYLINDER AND AN ECOBOOST THAT SHOULD BE GETTING A HELL OF A LOT BETTER GAS MILEAGE - CITY AND HIGHWAY! MY 2012 FUSION V6 HAD WAYYYY BETTER MPG. I HAVE READ IN FORUMS ABOUT BOTH OF THESE 2 ISSUES AND FOUND RELATED PROBLEMS. FORD WANTED $180.00 JUST TO 'LOOK' AT MY DRIVEABILITY. JUST TO PLUG MY CAR COMPUTER INTO THEIR SCANNER. THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS FOR MY SPECIFIC CAR EVEN THOUGH I AM FINDING A LOT OF THE SAME ISSUES AS SOME RECALLS ON OTHER MODEL FUSIONS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TO BE FIXED, THIS IS FAULT OF FORD. 3. MY A/C SYSTEM STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR AT 36,816 MILES!!! STILL NO WARNINGS ACTIVE AND FORD WANTS $120.00 JUST TO 'LOOK' AT IT - AND CHARGE ME MORE TO FIX ANY ISSUES IT HAS. WHILE READING SOME FORUMS I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL RECALLS/SAME ISSUES FOR THIS AND SOME SAY THAT THE A/C PIPE IS FAULTY AND LEAKS. BUT MY SPECIFIC CAR DOES NOT HAVE THOSE RECALLS SO FORD WILL NOT FIX ISSUE. AND AGAIN, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR FAULTY PARTS! DISGUSTED!!!!! PLEASE CORRECT THE RECALLS SO I CAN DRIVE SAFELY. *TR

THIS CAR HAS A 16.5 GALLON GAS TANK BUT IT ONLY FILLS U TO 13.00 GALLONS. THERE IS A TSB FOR THIS CAR BUT FORD REFUSES TO ADMIT THE PROBLEM IS THE GAS TANK AND HELP ME. I HAVE TALKED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE OF THE FORUMS AND THEY SAY WHEN THE GAS TANK IS REPLACED IT FIXES THE PROBLEM HTTP://WWW.FORDFUSIONFORUM.COM/TOPIC/8957-2013-FUSION-FUEL-TANK-FILLING-ISSUES/ TSB 13-6-3. *TR

WHILE DRIVING NORTH ON I-25 WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 75MPH, SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE STOP FORWARD ACCELERATION AND INSTANTLY BEGAN DECREASING SPEED. IMMEDIATELY, I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR TO NO AVAILABLE POWER. THE ENGINE REFUSED TO COMMUNICATION WITH THE ACCELERATOR AS THE RPM WOULD JUST INCREASE BUT NO ACTUAL POWER WAS GIVEN TO THE VEHICLE. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO RESPOND BUT EVENTUALLY HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE NO POWER WAS AVAILABLE. EVEN AFTER SOMEHOW AVOID 3 LANES OF CONSTANT TRAFFIC, I ATTEMPTED TO START DRIVING AGAIN WITHOUT SHUTTING THE VEHICLE DOWN. DURING THIS POINT ALL THAT WOULD STILL HAPPEN WAS THE VEHICLE WOULD REV THE RPM'S, BUT NOT PROPULSION WAS AVAILABLE. I HAD TO SHUTDOWN THE CAR COMPLETELY ON THE HIGHWAY SHOULDER IN ORDER TO GET THE CAR TO RESPOND TO ANY TIME OF GAS DEMANDS. I HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE THROTTLE BODY ISSUE MANY CUSTOMERS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING AND BELIEVE I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE LOSING POWER WHILE IN CRUISE CONTROL AT 75MPH CAN LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC RESULTS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO BECAUSE IT CAUSES IMMEDIATE PANIC FROM THE DRIVER AS THEY ATTEMPT TO DRIVE SAFELY OUT OF THE TRAFFIC. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME IN THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME, FORD MECHANICS BLAMED THE PROBLEM ON THE RECALLED FUEL PUMP AND REPLACED IT. SINCE CLEARLY THAT WAS NOT THE REMEDY TO THIS PROBLEM, I BELIEVE THAT MORE INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE DONE TO UNDERSTAND THE FULL SCOPE OF THE IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER THAT MYSELF AND MANY OTHER HAVE EXPERIENCED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS (0-10 MPH) THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. SOMETIMES WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR THE VEHICLE DOESN'T RESPOND, CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO FURTHER PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, AND WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY RESPONDS, IT RAPIDLY ACCELERATES. *TR

THIS PROBLEM CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING . YOU COULD BE GOING THRU AN INTERSECTION OR GETTING ON THE HIGH WAY .THE PROBLEM IS WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL NOTHING HAPPENS NO ACCELERATION. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. THE CAR THEN GOES INTO A LIMP HOME MODE OF SORTS, WITH AN TOP SPEED OF 25 MPH THEN 5 MPH THEN BACK TO 25 MPH , IT'S KIND OF THE FEELING YOU GET WHEN THERE'S WATER IN YOUR GAS. GOING UP ANY HILLS CAN BE A PROBLEM AS THE ENGINE DOES NOT HAVE THE POWER FOR THIS TASK. THIS CREATES A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD LEAD TO INJURY OR SOMEONE BEING KILLED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V227000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) AND STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THERE ARE NO FAILURES AT THIS TIME.

AFTER LEAVING WORK AND DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES, THE CAR EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE. IT WAS SUNNY OUTSIDE AND WARM. THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM WAS NOT IN USE. WHILE DRIVING IN EV MODE, THE CAR DROPPED ITS SPEED FROM 25 MPG TO 2MPH. I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND HAD TO DRIVE 2 BLOCKS UNTIL I COULD PULL OVER. THE CAR DISPLAY FLASHED ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE. THE CAR DISPLAY AND ALL INTERIOR LIGHTED WENT DARK. THE CAR DID NOT SWITCH TO THE GAS ENGINE AND THE GAS ENGINE DID NOT TURN ON. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER FOUND 50 ERROR CODES ON THE CAR. A FEW DAYS AFTER RECEIVING THE CAR BACK FROM THE DEALER, I WAS DRIVING IN EV MODE IN A PARKING LOT. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR BUCKED AND SWITCHED INTO GAS ENGINE MODE. THE DISPLAY LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TURNED YELLOW AND THE CAR TOOK ITSELF OUT OF EV MODE. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IN JULY OF 2103, SHE RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V227000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE ). THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR BUT THEY STATED THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT SHE WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT TOOK TO HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

I CANT FILL TANK ALL THE WAY OR THE FUEL GAUGE READING IS BAD. *TR

"CHECK FUEL FILL PORT" LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. I HIT "OK" AND THEN IT GOES OFF. HOWEVER, THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH IT, SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER. THEY SIMPLY RESET THE CODE, AND TOLD ME THAT GAS PUMP NOZZLES "ARE SOMETIMES DIRTY" AND CAN TRIP THE SENSOR. ONE WEEK LATER, THE LIGHT IS ON AGAIN AND I WILL TAKE IT INTO THE SHOP THIS WEEK. WORRY THERE COULD BE A GAS LEAK, AS AFTER I FILL THE TANK COMPLETELY, THE GAUGE SINKS TO 3/4 OF A TANK IN ABOUT 5 MILES. *TR

LIKE MANY OTHER 2013 FUSION OWNERS, I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WHEN REFUELING. THE BEST EXAMPLE THUS FAR WAS PURPOSELY RUNNING DOWN TO THREE MILES TO EMPTY BEFORE REFUELING. I WAS ABLE TO PUMP ONLY 12.861 GALLONS INTO THE 16.5 GALLON TANK - THIS INCLUDED THREE TOP-OFF CLICKS OF THE PUMP. I HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK THIS ISSUE OUT. THE SERVICE ADVISER TOLD ME HE CONTACTED FORD ENGINEERING REGARDING THE CONCERN. FORD REPLIED THAT THEY KNEW THERE WAS AN ISSUE AND WERE WORKING ON A SOLUTION AT THAT TIME. I HAVE READ THAT OTHERS WERE TOLD BY DEALERSHIPS THAT THE TANK DOES FILL, BUT THAT FORD SET THE FUEL GAUGE TO ALLOW FOR A RESERVE AFTER ZERO MILES TO EMPTY. IF THIS IS TRUE, THERE IS A 22% RESERVE ALLOWANCE IN MY CASE NOTED ABOVE. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CONSUMER MUST KNOW, WITH REASONABLE ACCURACY, THE FUEL LEVEL OF THEIR VEHICLE SO THEY DO NOT RUN OUT OF FUEL ON BUSY OR REMOTE ROADS FORD NEEDS TO RESPOND TO DEALERS/CUSTOMERS TO EXPLAIN THE ISSUE, AND WHAT IS GOING TO BE DONE TO RESOLVE IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED AND WOULD PROVIDE ERRONEOUS FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FULL, THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE WOULD ONLY REGISTER FOURTEEN OF THE SIXTEEN GALLONS OF FUEL THAT WAS ADDED TO THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED TO MAXIMUM CAPACITY, THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD ONLY REGISTER THE TANK AS BEING HALF FULL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE A FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 1,000. *TR

I HAVE A 2013 TITANIUM AND ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL IT HAS A 16.5 GAL TANK. THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY DISPLAY STATED 3 MILES TO EMPTY SO I REFUELED. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET IN 12.779 GAL INTO THE TANK WHEN IT CLICKED OFF. AFTER REFUELING, THE FUEL GAUGE IS ALWAYS BELOW THE FULL LINE. SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS HAVE POSTED THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE HAD THEIR FUEL TANKS REPLACED OF WHICH CORRECTED THIS ISSUE. *TR

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, THE PUMP "KICKED OFF" PRIOR TO A FULL TANK AS DISPLAYED BY DIGITAL FUEL GAUGE (JUST UNDER FULL). I DROVE 25 MILES AND FUEL GAUGE THEN SHOWED BETWEEN FULL AND 3/4 TANK. THERE SEEMS TO BE AN INACCURACY WITH THE CALIBRATION OF THE GAUGE AND/OR AMOUNT OF FUEL THAT CAN BE PUT INTO TANK, WITH RESPECT TO TANK CAPACITY, BEFORE PUMP "KICK OFF". *TR

MY 2013 FUSION S SHOULD HAVE A 16.5 GAL TANK, BUT WHEN I GOT THE LOW FUEL LEVEL LIGHT ON TODAY, I CAN ONLY PUT 12.5 GAL INTO THE TANK BEFORE THE FIRST KICK-OFF. THE TANK CAN NOT BY FULLY FILLED! *TR

THE FORD FUSION FUEL TANK IN MY 2.0 ECOBOOST ENGINE DOES NOT FILL ALL THE WAY. IT IS DOCUMENTED AS A 16.5 GALLON TANK, HOWEVER EVEN RUNNING TO EMPTY I AM ONLY ABLE TO FILL 12-13 GALLONS. TO ME, IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO HAVE A 3-4 GALLON "RESERVE". I AM NOT SURE IF IT'S THE TANK ITSELF, OR IF IT'S FAULTY HARDWARE CAUSING VAPOR TO BE TRAPPED AND THE SYSTEM THINKING IT'S FULL WHEN IT IS IN FACT NOT. THIS MAY NOT BE A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT IS AN ISSUE IF YOU ARE THINKING YOU HAVE MORE GAS THAN YOU ACTUALLY DO. *TR

I'VE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY GAS TANK SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR SINCE OCT 2012. WHEN I FILL UP, THE CAR SOMETIMES FILLS ALL THE WAY ON THE GAUGE, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. IF IT DOES IT DROPS FROM FULL TO HALF A QUARTER BY 10-20 MILES. ALSO, IVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO FILL UP TO AROUND 16 GALLONS. THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A 16.5 GALLON FUEL TANK. I RUN THE CAR TO APPROX 12 MILES LEFT, TILL THE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND I CAN ONLY GET ROUGHLY 12 GALLONS IN THE TANK. EITHER THE TANK THAT WAS INSTALLED IS WRONG OR THE COMPUTER GAUGE IS OFF. I'M ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE ABOUT 315 ON A "FULL" TANK. THAT IS NOT RIGHT FOR A CAR THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A 27-37MPG CAR. WHICH I ONLY GET ABOUT 24-26MPG SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR. I DO A MIX OF HIGHWAY AND CITY DRIVING, MOSTLY HIGHWAY AVERAGING 45MPH DRIVING. I'VE TOLD BRIEN FORD IN EVERETT OF THIS ISSUE BUT THEY WONT LOOK AT IT SINCE IT HASN'T BEEN RECOGNIZED BY FORD. THERE'S A REALLY BIG RESPONSE TO THIS ISSUE ON MANY FORUMS. I FOLLOW THE MOST POPULAR FOR FUSIONS AT HTTP://WWW.FORDFUSIONFORUM.COM/TOPIC/8957-2013-FUSION-FUEL-TANK-FILLING-ISSUES/. THE DEALER TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THEM RESEARCH IT WHEN IS A HORRIBLE THING TO DO, WHEN I KNOW THERE'S AN ISSUE. WHEN I'M ONLY ABLE TO GET ABOUT 12 GALLONS IN THE TANK. THE FUSION HYBRID SE HAS A 13.5 GALLON TANK, I THINK THE TANKS GOT INSTALLED INCORRECTLY, AND ME ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS GOT THE HYBRID TANK INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL 16.5 GALLON TANK. *TR
