justin.jacobwsu Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Hello, im new to this forum so please excuse my non-complete profile. Anyway, I just bought a used 2015 Ford Fusion SE with 31,000 miles. I have had no issues so far, but just today I put the key in the ignition turned it over and it didn't start right away. I let go for about three seconds and it started up after turning the key. It happened twice in one day, but every time I turn the car off and then start it back up it is fine in succession. I hope it's not the fuel pump or something costly. I just recently got the car on September 7th, at a certified Ford Dealer, and I'm concerned that there is something wrong already. Please someone end my madness! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eGuru Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Are you holding the key in the start position for longer than 1 second before releasing it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin.jacobwsu Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Yes, I was starting it just like normal. Holding the key in there for like 3 seconds or so, which normally the car begins to turn over then. But it wasn't then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eGuru Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Just to be sure - you are saying that on the first start attempt, the engine doesn't even turn-over within the first 3 seconds while you have the key in the start position. When you then release the key from start position and then turn key back to start position, it starts up normally? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
