I was affected by the throttle body thing. I got it fixed at jim click Ford in tucson. I've been experiencing heavy acceleration and throttle response problems since. I had my trams fluid leak from the cap. No leaks in any of my hoses. My rpms stay between 1700-2700 regardless of what speed I'm going. I took it back to jim click, even tho showing no errors. And it's always whining, my engine. I don't know what's causing this, but I definitely take care of my car. And Fusion been having a lot of problems. And people tell my my car makes really loud noise when turning. I've never heard it or felt it, but I've been told by multiple people.

Last month my 2010 Ford Fusion went into "limp mode" while driving twice in the same day - engine still runs but no power other than idling - very dangerous. Took my vehicle to the local Ford dealer who replaced the throttle body as part of a customer satisfaction program at no cost. The vehicle has gone into "limp mode" one more time since then. I do not trust this vehicle.

I was accelerating from a stop light. I have a 2010 Ford Fusion manual transmission 4-cylinder engine. I had just shifted into 2nd gear and was at about 15 mph when the car suddenly stopped accelerating. The powertrain warning light came on the dash. The engine was idling - but I was unable to accelerate the car. Fortunately, there was no one behind me, and traffic was not impeded. I pulled to the side of the road and verified electrical systems were working. The engine felt rough. I turned off the ignition and let the car sit for about 15 seconds. I started the car back up, and it ran without issue. I searched online, and found similar complaints on other Fusion. I took the car to a Ford dealership and they replaced the throttle body as well as the fuel valve. Leading up to this, I had noticed some symptoms of shuddering, but, it coincided with a new tank of fuel. I planned to put a new tank of fuel in and see if the problem persisted. The car died prior to a new tank. This is a serious safety issue given that it can easily result in being rear-ended.

Noticed a strong fuel odor coming from car. Upon further inspection, noticed that there was a puddle under the gas tank, coming from the rear passanger side, towards the top. As I took a closer look, I found that it was leaking from the seam where the two halves of the tank were put together. It was a steady drip, loosing about a half gallon of fuel in a 24 hour period. Had the car towed to the dealer and they confirmed it was leaking from the seam. Quoted me at $1500 for the fix. Filed a claim with Ford and waiting to hear back from them........updated10/27/15

I was driving down the interstate when all of sudden I loss power and the car seems like it does not want to take gas so lucky I was in the right lane and was able to get in to emergency lane before I got hit from behind by a tractor trailer. I have had the car looked at and told that there is a problem with the vacuum system on this car. It has to do the the filler neck on the gas tank. My mechanic tells me this is a common problem with Ford Fusion and this model. I think this should be looked in to before someone else is in the smae boat and gets killed or cause one serious problem.

I believe this car is also affected by the electronic throttle body issues plaguing Ford. I was driving the vehicle when it suddenly loses power and the "wrench" light appears. The vehicle lost speed and did not respond to the gas pedal. I was able to pull over and restart the vehicle with temporary resolution of the problem. This has been a gradually worsening problem.

8/24/2015 had the charcoal canister and vapor control valve replaced in my 2010 Ford Fusion by dealership. Took car filled up tank, drove car, noticed a smell and gas running out from underneath car near the rear passenger tire. Called dealership back took car back in and was told on 8/25/2015 that there was/is a break in weld of gas tank. Over $1600 later I had to pay, out of pocket for repairs. I have found on numerous web site (I.e. repair pal and safercar.gov to name a few) that this is a known/ongoing issue....updated10/27/15

The car will suddenly lose acceleration and come to stop, engine sputters and car shakes. After turning the car off for a minute and restarting, you can continue on. This happens sporadically and without warning and is a very hazardous situation in busy traffic. Research indicates that the problem is associated to the throttle body and seems to be electronic in nature.

Car cut out and went to limp mode. Code P2111 - actuator control system open this is a very serious safety issue!!!! my entire family was in the car. If I had not been a experienced driver an accident could have result from shutting down on the interstate

- Livonia, MI, USA

While highway driving at speed, the car lost power without warning. Engine check or wrench light came on. Being on a highway without power seem to put me and the vehicle in jeopardy of being in a collision. I was able to turn the key off and back on to clear the problem temporarily. Since then the engine speed seems to surge. While this has not been officially diagnosed symptoms indicates a throttle body failure.

Car cut out and went to limp mode. No code was set. First repair cleaned throttle body ok for 1000mile then many shut downs on an interstate made it to the dealer who replaced electronic throttle body. Car VIN indicated it was not under the so called recall car had exactly the same symptoms as other have reported on various web sites this is a very serious safety issue!!!! if I had not been a experienced driver an accident could have result from shutting down on the interstate

Once again I have another big issue with this car and year. The car smells of fuel. Possible fuel tank corrosion. It is very unsafe for anyone to be within 20feet of the car, let alone light a cigarette or a match. Why is the NHTSA not recalling these vehicles, Ford Fusion, but recalling everyone after the 2010 year model. You recalled the 2013 for the fuel system, 2011 & 2012 for the power steering, alot of the complaints are all for the 2010 year model, and you keep skipping over this year... horrible year Ford has ever made with this car. Some one is going to get killed !!!! I should never have to put a new fuel tank in a 4year old car...

- Browns Mills , NJ, USA

Vehicle went into limp mode at 75 miles per hour. Existing NHTSA action number exists for this issue and model/year (PE13003) but Ford claims the vehicle is not affected by this issue. Requesting to reopen the investigation and create a recall for all affected vehicles, not just a partial list.

- Flower Mound, TX, USA

Driving down the high way and my car lost all accelerating capability and almost caused a serious accident. My car was previously taken in three months ago because it was stalling but I was told by Ford without any check engine light they couldn't do anything. I even did some online research before I went to Ford and suggested the throttle body position sensor and they said it wouldn't cause my car to do that.
