Description of the problem | The affected vehicle is a 2015 ford fusion energi with 80,350 miles. Vin: 3fa6p0su1fr i purchased the vehicle from keller ford in hanford california on 11jan2021, at 79,902 miles. On my way to work while on the highway, symptoms started with a high pitch noise, followed by, a burning smell, motor over temp warning, and finally a complete loss of power and a "pull over safely" warning. I had my car towed to the dealership the following morning to be worked on, where they found the transmission assembly to be the affected issue. The transmission had been replaced sometime last year prior to my ownership, which was undisclosed to me at the time of purchase, so this is now the seccond time this car has had an issue with the ecvt assembly. (part number hm5z-7000-arm). The original repair was a complete transmission replacement, but this time, ford is looking at having the dealership rebuild the transmission. I have not been able to find many other issues with this transmission, aside for two tsbs. 20-2219 and 19-2391. The hybrid electrical system, which includes the ecvt, is warranted by ford up to 8 years or 100,000 miles |
