 Description of the problemRecently, while traveling from chicago, il to las vegas nevada, i experienced mechanical issues with my 2015 ford fusion. The car broke down in las vegas, nevada, where i took it to a local repair shop, due to the closeness of the where it broke down. The repair shop stated that they would need a few days to diagnose the vehicle. Unfortunately, i had no more days to stay in vegas, as i needed to return home. Thus, i flew back to chicago, and left my car in las vegas, nevada in the care of the repair shop for testing and diagnosis and repair. The repair shop called and stated that my car needed a new transmission. This befuddled me, as my car was just barely two years old and has low mileage. Upon doing some research, i found that ford fusions from 2013-2016 have known mechanical issues with the transmission and many have already been recalled. I called the ford corporate office after the repair shop advised that the transmission needed replacing. I was advised to have the vehicle towed to a ford dealership. I had the car towed to friendly ford, where i am waiting for the diagnosis to be completed. However, i was already advised that if in fact the transmission needs to be replaced, it would be take approximately 4-6 weeks to be completed. This presents a tremendous inconvenience to me, as i am in chicago and my vehicle is 1800 miles away from me, essentially useless to my day to day activities which include school, work, doctors
