Good morning all, I just wanted to let you know my experience with my Ford Fusion Hybrid. It currently has about 45,000 miles on it. For the most part, I have enjoyed driving the car up until yesterday!
Here is what happened: I was driving home with my wife and two kids when the car just shut off, I got a message to pull over safely now which fortunately I was able to do, since I was on a back road. I could not believe what just happened, no warning and a total loss off all engine power! Fortunately I was able to restart the car and continue home. I thought it might be some kind of fluke since we have had the check engine light come on in the past: I would guess 4 times in the last 3 months, each time I took it in to the dealer and they said it needed to be reprogrammed and did the necessary reprogramming....
Today I called the dealer yet again and they will look at it on Thursday, I then called my wife who is driving the car today and as I was talking to her on the phone the car shut off again!!! This time she was on the highway and had to pull all the way over to the median. Again she was able to restart the car and drive off.
My question is this has anyone else heard of this problem or experienced this?? I was able to only find one other post where this happened to someone. I am honestly second guessing whether we should keep this car even with the 37 mpg we have been getting. Any advise would be appreciated!
