Hesitates Between Shifts, Slams Into Gear, Surges
2012 Ford Fusion
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: Power steering problems started rearing their ugly head in the 2010 Fusion, so you'd think Ford had plenty of time to make sure those problems didn't creep into the 2012. But here we are.
The Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS) is a mess. It fails at an alarming rate. Don’t believe us? Take a look at NHTSA’s data on the subject.
And much like the power steering, we’re still seeing the same throttle body failures that started in 2010 continue in 2012.

Transmission jerks when shifting, particularly into gear 3 and especially when going up hills. I first noticed the problem when my car had about 80k miles on it and it got progressively worse. My car has never been involved in any accidents and I have performed all of the recommended services on it up to this point. The car has a lot of highway miles as well, which means the gear shifting has been minimal.
