WHEN FUELING THE TANK VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY RUNNING. ENGINE STARTS AND THEN DIES. THIS GOES ON UP TO FIVE MINUTES THEN ENGINE STAYS RUNNING WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. CHECK CODES THERE IS P1450 STORED. OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING AND TURNING ENGINE OFF AND THEN RE STARTING A FEW MINUTES LATER, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE STUTTERS AND DIES AFTER DRIVING WHICH CAN BE IN A PARKING LOT OR MAKE TO THE HIGHWAY STOP AT A STOP LIGHTS WHICH GETS REALLY SCARY WHEN OTHER TRAFFIC IS AROUND. I LOOK UP MY VIN FOR RECALLS IT SHOWS NONE. IT STARTING HAPPENING A WHILE BACK JUST ONCE IN A WHILE ACCURRENCE, NOW EVERYTIME I FILL UP.

THE CAR WILL PULSATE AND SHAKE WHEN DRIVING, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE, LIKE THERE NO ACCELERATING IN THEN THE CAR CUT OFF, WHICH IS DANGER. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR LESS THEN A YEAR, I JUST PAYED CLOSE TO 1,000 BUCKS GETTING IT FIX FROM HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT MY WARRANTY DID NOT COVER. I HAD TO TAKE TO THE SHOP FOR THINGS THAT WAS OR RECALLED., IN NOW THIS. I THINK I WAS SELL A LEMON.

UPON APPLYING THE GAS AND ACCELERATING FROM A STOP OR IDLE POSITION AND SOMETIMES AT SPEED, MY 2014 FUSION WILL SPUTTER WITH JERKING MOTION WHILE LOSING RPMS AND POWER BEFORE STALLING ALTOGETHER. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE FREQUENTLY AND TODAY IT OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES, IN SEVERAL INSTANCES WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC FROM A SIDE ROAD. THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCIDENT TO OCCUR AS THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE CARS ARE APPROACHING AND MOST LIKELY NOT ANTICIPATING MY VEHICLE TO COME TO A STOP. MY ONLY RECOURSE IS TO SHIFT THE CAR TO PARK AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART, WHICH THUS FAR HAS WORKED; THOUGH, THE CAR IS A BIT DIFFICULT TO START AFTERWARD. THERE'S A HESITATION TO START AFTERWARD, AS IF THERE'S NO FUEL, BUT NOT LIKE AN ELECTRICAL OR STARTER ISSUE.

1. WHEN PUMPING GASOLINE, THE LEVER CLICKS OFF EVERY 1-2 SECONDS, TAKING LONG TIME TO FILL GAS TANK, AND NEVER KNOWING IF OVER-FILLING. I MUST REPEATEDLY TURN THE IGNITION ON/OFF/ON IN ORDER TO SEE THE GAS GAUGE. 2. THE BODY DENTS EASILY.

TAKATA RECALL: THE CAR IS STALLING WHILE I AM IN DRIVE, WITH SPEEDS UP TO 70 MPH. IT ALSO WILL NOT START AFTER I HAVE PUT GAS IN THE TANK. I HAVE TO STEP ON THE GAS TO GWT IT TO START. THE CAR IS ALSO SHAKING BACK AND FORTH WHILE IN PARK JUST TRYING TO STAY STARTED. THEN IT WILL DIE. EVERYTIME I COME TO A STOPLIGHT OR A STOP SIGN I GO THROUGH THIS AND HAVE GREAT DIFFICULTY STARTING IT BACK UP CONTINUOUSLY.

THE PURGE VALVE WENT OUT ON MY CAR AFTER NEVER HAVING ANY PERFORMANCE OR EMISSIONS RELATED ISSUES. UPON RESEARCHING, IT SEEMS TO BE RATHER COMMON IN FORD FUSIONS. IS THERE A RECALL REVIEW WARRANTED AT THIS TIME? I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND STARTED HEARING A LOUD HUMMING, VIBRATING SOUND COMING FROM MY GAS TANK / GAS CAP AREA. IT CONTINUED TO HUM EVERY 15 SECONDS OR SO OVER THE NEXT 20 MINUTES UNTIL I ARRIVED AT WORK. THERE WERE NO OTHER ISSUES AND MY CAR SEEMED TO RUN JUST FINE. THIS IS, HOWEVER, AN EMISSIONS CONCERN AND SEEMS TO BE COMMON IN FORD FUSION FORUMS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE FOR A RECALL ALERT.

MY CARS ENGINE SHUTS OFF AFTER ACCELERATING WITH NO WARNING. NO ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON DURING THE PROCESS AND MY CAR REMAINS IN MOTION BUT CAN'T ACCELERATE. THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE VIGOROUSLY WHEN RIGHT BEFORE SHUTTING OFF. I NEED TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT GOING, BUT IT BECOMES DANGEROUS WHEN ON THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO CAN'T DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A SECOND STARTUP OF THE VEHICLE WITHIN AN HOUR TIME OF SHUTTING OFF THE VEHICLE FOR THE FIRST TIME. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AFTER THE SECOND FAILED DRIVE, EVERYTHING WORKS CORRECTLY AGAIN. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS KEEP WORKING WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. HAPPENED 12 DIFFERENT TIMES FOR ME SINCE FEBRUARY.

I HAVE A 2014 FORD FUSION ECOBOOST 2.0 TURBO THE VEHICLE RUNS GREAT UNTIL YOU SHUT IT OFF. ONCE YOU START IT UP IT RUNS FINE THEN WITHIN A FEW MINUTES NOT EVERYTIME IT WILL JUST SHUT OFF. IT WILL ALSO START SHAKING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THEN SHUTOFF. I HAVE AVOIDED TWO HEAD ON COLLISIONS AT INTERSECTIONS TURNING LEFT WHEN THE ENGIN DIED, I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT BOTH TIMES AFTER A FEW MINUTES THEN I NEARLY HAD A REAR END IMPACT WHEN MERGING ON THE FREEWAY, I W AS GOING 65-70 AND AS I MERGED OVER THE CAR SPUTTERED AND SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER AND WAIT FOR A TOW.. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE ALL WITH A FORD ECOBOOST ENGINE THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE THE PURGE VALVE. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS ALL ECOBOOST MOTORS. THIS IS AN ACTIVE RECALL ON THE FORD FOCUS 2.0 LITER CARS. SUFFICE TO SAY I AM VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN EVER I DRIVE IT NOW. I WANT IT FIXED OR GONE. THIS STILL HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY.

MY CAR IS STALLING AFTER IT IS DRIVEN FOR 15-20 MINS. ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED OFF, IF IT IS STARTED WITHIN THE NEXT HOUR, IT ALWAYS STALLS OUT. I SEE THAT FORD FUSION HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT WAS RECALLED. THIS IS THE NOTE THAT I SAW ONLINE FOR THE FORD FOCUS RECALL, "FORD IS RECALLING NEARLY 1.3 MILLION FOCUS COMPACT CARS IN THE U.S. BECAUSE A FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM CAN CAUSE THE ENGINES TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING. THE RECALL COVERS CARS FROM 2012 THROUGH 2018 WITH 2-LITER FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINES." I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY KEEP DIAGNOSING IT AS A BAD FUEL SENSORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. WELL, I'VE REPLACED THEM ALREADY AND THE SAME PROBLEM KEEPS HAPPENING. I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP PAYING THE DEALER FOR SOMETHING THAT I BELIEVE IS AN ISSUE THAT THEY SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF SINCE THEIR OTHER VEHICLES WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

WHEN I INITIALLY START MY VEHICLE THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS. THE PROBLEM STARTS IF I TURN MY CAR OFF AFTER DRIVING IT. IT WILL START AND I CAN DRIVE FOR ABOUT 500 FEET AND IT WILL THEN TURN OFF. I HAVE TO RESTART IT AND THEN IT CONTINUES TO DRIVE NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME I START, STOP AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT IS ALWAYS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
