2017 Ford Fusion owner complaints

2017 Ford Fusion with only 60k+ miles on it is having engine issues. Coolant leaks into the engine, resulting in a cylinder misfire which can cause an accident and significant engine damage—I now need a whole new engine. I am not the only Ford Fusion owner having this problem—numerous complaints have been made about this same issue. A recall should be issued as it is a defect caused by the manufacturer and the burden to repair or replace should not fall on the owner.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle drove roughly, and the engine was misfiring. Additionally, the contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the vehicle was idling roughly. The contact's father, who is an independent mechanic, diagnosed the failure as a blown head gasket and coolant intrusion into the engine. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was confirmed that the failure was a blown head gasket and engine failure due to coolant intrusion. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The contact referenced Technical Service Bulletin: 22-2229; however, the repair was not covered under the TSB. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided

Vehicle is experiencing coolant intrusion from a crack in the engine block 3rd cylinder which is a known issue by Ford for my particular vehicle year (2017). Ford has issued a TSB/Recall for model years 2017-2019, I believe this issue should qualify for manufacturer recall as this is known issue.

Ford Fusion 1.5L Ecoboost engines are known to have a fault short block that causes coolant intrusion. This defect does not trigger a check engine light, so there is no way for a driver to identify the problem until it's too late. Ford issued a Technical Safety Bulletin informing mechanics of this issue but customers were not given an option to repair it. A Customer Satisfaction Program (CSP) was initiated to replace some VIN models short blocks, but not all. Other Ford 1.5L Ecoboost engines are having this issue and were not properly informed or given the option to repair through the CSP and are driving cars that can have total engine failure without proper notification. I have taken my Ford Fusion in for all the safety recalls and was never informed of this issue. I was not part of the

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that the check engine warning light had been illuminated and that the hood of the vehicle was trembling while an abnormal sound came from the engine upon starting the vehicle. The contact also stated that while driving the vehicle at various speeds the engine would stall. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed, and the contact was advised that the failure was attributed to coolant intrusion into cylinder 2 and that the entire engine would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,254.

Car shut off while stopped at a red light with no warning and then when I went to resume driving the car said it was in accessory mode. I started to roll back as I took my foot off the brake. I was able to turn off the car and restart it. I pulled over for a little while and stopped and restarted the vehicle several times before feeling safe to proceed. There were several other cars behind me when this occurred and I am thankful I did not roll back into one of them. I took it to the dealership and they were unable to tell me what caused this problem. They said there were unaware of any issues like this. I however had an issue with the transmission as well that was causing a harsh shift that I was taking the car in for repairs for. There is only 10821 miles on this vehicle and it is st

2017 Ford Fusion 2.0L ecoboost engine is available for inspection. The engine block was designed incorrectly and coolant leaks into the cylinder. There is a risk of fire from the intrusion of coolant in the cylinder. Many other people are having this issue and they did recall the 1.5L engine. They need to on the 2.0L as well. My local mechanic identified the issue and I called the Ford dealer who didn't even need to see it said I need a new engine based off the mechanic's testing. After losing coolant and constantly refilling with no coolant being seen coming from the vehicle, the check engine light comes on. The code listed states that one of the cylinders is misfiring. This is due to coolant in the cylinder. With the risk of fire, Ford needs to put a recall on this issue for the

My car is jerking and the check engine light has not come on it has been since july and they can't tell me but it a recall on the 2.0 liter but not on mine for a 2.5 torque converter that is the problem and the guy at Ford place said it would be 2700 to fix I would rather run it in a river wow

There is a recall on 2017 Ford Fusion's torque converter. I currently have a 2017 Ford Fusion. After inspection at a Ford service dealership, the "torque converter clutch internally failed filling the transmission filter with metal debris and starving the pump for fluid causing debris to go throughout the transmission." The problem with this, is that even though it's list as a recall for ,y specific car, the recall is not listed under my VIN number. This inspection was done on December 17, 2024. The safety of myself and children were put at risk when my car hesitated to accelerate on multiple occurrences on busy roads and intersections. The problem has been reproduced by a Ford dealer and has also been inspected by a Ford service dealership. There were no warning lights on indicating

unknown vehicle needs to be jumped after every drive. i just picked up the car. only have had it for 4 days. have had to jump it twice. it has 61,000 miles on it. i have taken the battery out and in for a charge and tested and it it good was also purchased 7/22. all of the interior screens and lights come on but the start/stop button green light blinks. don't understand why there isn't a recall.

In our 2017 Ford Fusion, the back up camera sometimes says "unavailable at this time" (or something close to that) when put in reverse. It is available for inspection upon request. Safety is put at risk for multiple parties - the driver/owner, individual(s)/property behind the vehicle, insurance companies, and potentially others as the total view between mirrors and the backup camera is compromised. The vehicle has not been taken to a dealership as it is out of warranty. I see where Ford has a recall on some of these, so I checked both NHTSA and Ford websites, and it says this vehicle is ineligible for repair. However, we are experiencing this problem from time to time, most recently 2 days ago when our [XXX] old was driving it. He called to let us know what the camera was doing. I

Car warning states “steering assist fault service required” total loss of power steering in the vehicle after sat parked for a week, vehicle started without issue, no warning codes can be found with OBDII scanner

My steering wheel has become very loose and feels like it's going to fall off. I have video for proof. 2017 Ford fusion sport.

On the highway we lost the steering assist function. The dash lit up with steering assist failure. Due to this system failing on the highway, I almost had an accident while in a turn, I went across the rumble strips toward the wall and just barley missed hitting the wall. When the power assist failed this made the vehicle harder to control then a standard manual steering car, it took a great deal of force to control the car.

Swollen lug nuts that can’t be removed because they have swollen to be too large for the included jack as well as any other 19mm socket. My 2011 fusion had this problem and I spent approx $200+ to fix for all wheels inc labor (was labor intensive to strip off outer casing of swollen lugs), now my 2017 fusion has the same issue and I cannot out on a spare to replace my completely flat tire- will need to get towed to fix
