Description of the problem	I went to start my 2013 ford fusion and all of the electrical controls in front of the steering wheel did not work,gauges,readout screen,tach,speedometer,turn signal indicator lights. As i have pancreatic cancer(stage 4) it is virtually impossible for me tocrawl around under the glove compartment to check the fuses. One of my brothers-in-law came over and found the fuse box and looked at several fuses but none were blown. He pulled several fuses and noticed they were corrode on the male ends, as was the female end of the fuse box. I had noticed for several days the computer screen in front of the steering wheel was slow to come on. My car was parked in my driveway in a stationary condition. This seems to be to be a very dangerous condition, especially if it happened while driving, you have no speedometer no tach,no turn signals,ect. Anything that is controlled by that fuse. I have had cars since 1963 and never encountered that problem(cored fuse ends). Nor have i ever had a car with an auto transmission that "shuddered" when going from a standing stop. You cannot check the fluid, there is no dipstick. I guess they are all in dearborn,mich at the ford headquarters(just a little humor). If the truth was known ford knew about the corroding fuse box, same as the torque converters and transaxles in the ford 2000 - 2006 taurus', yes i have had my bout with them also.
