I've got a 2012 Fusion with 1600 miles. I drove about 20 miles down highway and got to some backroads heading home. I stopped at a stop sign when to pull out and it stalled. I gave it more gas and it stalled again then took off. I went by a store and cut off car and didn't restart it for mabey 10 minutes and it did same thing when I pulled out. I about got hit. The next day I while I was out it did not do it but the check engine light came on. I took to dealer they and it came up code P2196 and P2198. They said they reset those ... what-ever that might be and drove it and could not replicate what happened to me. They said they called Ford and was told to give back to customer and basically wait to see if it happens again. So I get car back and sure enough after it's been driven a little while it does it again. So now from the dealer having car for 2 days since they were backed up ... I'm going to have to take it back soon enough. Anyway have this ? I'm going to get hit if this happens at the wrong time either by being hit in the rear on in the side when it dies while pulling out. Over the weekend it has graduated to jerking badly. It does this at 30,40,50 and 60mph. It is unsafe to be going down highway and that happens.Car slows down while this is happening. We took to back to dealer this morning.Of course more problems the jerking continues all the way up highway and it was so bad you couldn't go past 40 mph. The Engine light came back on. We left it running and complained on giving me a car back not fixed. I really could have had a bad accident. I made them give me a rental. They had my car 2 1/2 days last week I can't do that again.So no call back for follow-up from dealer on what they found or what they've done today. I thought I'd get atleast a touch base call. The P2196 is something about gas being too rich or something. I haven't filled up so it was not overfilled that was asked to me.I also have gotten gas a diff gas stations so I would hope not all 3 have bad gas.
