This first happened to me on June 1, 2016. My 2010 Ford Fusion loses power once in a while when driving. A wrench light appears on the dash board and the car starts to slow down, accelerator does not work and sometimes the car starts to shake. You will have to pull over, turn the car off for a few minutes and then turn it off in order to drive it until the light comes back on again. It is very dangerous to drive it in the highway and specially when speed limit its 50 and trucks or other cars are coming at a high speed behind you because you do not know when this is going to happen to you again. I have this problem for a few weeks. I took my car for a recall for something else on June 24, 2016 and I mentioned to them about this issue and they said everything was fine. But I'm sure it will not be fine if I get into a car accident after complaining about this issue. The dealer will ask if the light its on in order for them to check it. But I have mention that the light goes on and as soon as you lose power and turn the car off and on it disappears.

When vehicle is stationary throttle decreases to below 500 RPM, and sometimes stalls. Transmission and engine check come in intermittently. Ford aware of the throttle body and accelerator problem but won't fix it until broken. Took it to dealership and paid $125 for diagnostic but they told me there is no problem. I called Ford and they just referred me back to the dealership stating they are aware of the problem but won't fix it until it is broken. Please help, I can't drive the car due to the safety concern.

Engine stalls/shuts down while driving. Check engine light came on. Alarm P2111 came up. Throttle actuator control system - stuck open. My vehicle stalled while turning left with oncoming traffic. It did this 3 times while driving home from work. This is an intermittent issue. I take it to the dealer, they adjust, it works for a while, then occurs again. This is a very dangerous problem.

Driving on highway and car just lost power. Wrench light came on. Could only drive about 5 mph. Car was shaking/ chugging as I tried to give some gas. Shut car off and waited 5 minutes and car ran good. Happened again about half hour later. This happens about once every month with the car but this is the first time while highway driving. Very dangerous. Usually happens at lower speeds but this time I was going about 30 mph (coasting) and went to give it some gas and suddenly the engine had no power. Whenever this happened previously, I would restart the engine. It would rev in neutral ok, but if you put it in drive, the wrench light would come on again and you would have no power. If you let the car rest for a minute or two before re-starting chances are your ok.

Our vehicle is a 2010 Fusion with 96,000 miles on it. My wife drove to work yesterday and the wrench light came on and vehicle went into limp mode and would not accelerate over 40 mph and was extremely slow getting to that speed. I know Ford has a "satisfaction program" for this exact issue yet when I called them my VIN was not in the program. This is the same [xxx] problem as the other etb replacement and software update yet I'm being told I have to pay out of pocket. My wife ended up breaking down on a very busy street with cars behind her yet Ford won't acknowledge this is a bigger issue than the 1.6 million vehicles they recalled. How can my issue be exactly the same yet not meet the criteria? so does somebody have to be killed before it's address, or how many poor people have to pay out of their pockets with money they don't have before this is recalled as it should be.

I approached a stop sign and after stopping, I attempted to accelerate, but my car had significantly reduced power. The wrench illuminated and I was able to slowly guide my car to the shoulder of the road. I turned my car off, waited a few minutes and started it again. It started with no problem and I was able to drive it to the garage. I was told I'd new a new throttle body that would cost approximately $300 to replace including labor.

The vehicle starting having a rough idle and stalling out at a red lights. I immediately had it checked, and the technician cleaned the throttle body which seemed to help for a few days. Then, with no warning I saw smoke/steam pouring out from under the hood so I immediately called for help and asked what to do. I was advised by the technician to immediately pull over and shut the car. I had the car towed to lilliston Ford in vineland, NJ. I was told I needed a new motor. When asked why, I was consistently told that they were not sure without taking the motor apart but that they found all of the coolant in the engine pan, mixed with the motor oil. It seems to be that the most likely scenario is that the head gasket went bad and coolant leaked into the motor causing two things to happen - it mixed with the engine oil (which is obviously bad), and since now all of the coolant was out of the radiator the car overheated and warped the engine block. This vehicle is only 6 years old and was religiously maintained and should not be having major issues as such. Case number: Cas-9188661.

Engine would drop to idle and not respond to accelerator pedal, only restarting would solve. Escalated to engine completely dying requiring a restart often at highway speed. On 10/20 driving to airport in Chicago, car died a total of 7 times. Called Ford corporate regarding the etb customer satisfaction program, found my vehicle VIN was not included. On 10/22 took to Ford dealer and the etb was replaced at customer expense. Was told that the codes were exactly the same as the etb's being replaced under the customer satisfaction program. Called Ford corporate again, but would not included in the program. A serious potentially life-threatening issue when a vehicle stalls in heavy traffic. Suggest that all of the 2010 Ford Fusion should be included in the satisfaction program or the program should be upgraded to a recall program.
