Description of the problem | On more than three occasions, the vehicle's engine has abruptly shut down while driving or coming to complete stop when the gear was in the drive position. This has also occurred while driving over 60 mph on the expressway and it poses a grave danger and safety risk. When the incidents occurred the console display read "transmission not in park". After the first two incidents, the vehicle was returned to rod baker ford in joliet, illinois for service (purchase location). They stated that they could not identify the problem, but i believe that they did not contact ford or take the necessary steps to fix this serious defect. Most recently on june 22, 2015, the vehicle's engine shut down while coming to a stop when the gear was in drive...... There is a serious and potentially life-threatening defect with my 2015 ford fusion and it must be repaired or replaced. I also suggest that ford be informed to ensure that other affected vehicles are either repaired or replaced. ... Updated 09/08/15 *bf updated 10/26/2017*cn |
