bbf2530 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) Just bought a 2013 Fusion titanium . Has ambient lighting but cup holders don't light up. Anyone else have this problem? Hi Brian. :D Just a recommendation/friendly word of advice - Does not matter if anyone else, no one else or everyone else has had any particular problem. You have purchased a new car and something is not working properly. Go over your car with a fine-tooth comb and write down every issue. Then, make a service apointment and have them all taken care of. Let us know how you make out and good luck. :beerchug: Edited November 10, 2012 by bbf2530 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fink Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 I am new to this site. Don't know how to post photos of car. I go to the tutorial and it takes me to a web site that has nothing. This is through an I phone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fink Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 After reading the owners manual cover to cover I found where it says that the ambient lighting lights up the cupholders. I called the dealership, they said to bring it in. In the meantime I went to a different dealership where they had a loaded Fusion with ambient lighting. Guess what? No lighted cupholders! I guess Ford made a last minute change and decided to not have lighted cupholders in the new 2013 Fusion. No one at the the 2 Ford dealerships knew about this. If anyone happens to get a 2013 Fusion with ambient lighted cupholders, let me know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poirot1959 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Just got my 2013 titanium last Friday and the same here for the cup holder with no ambient lighting. Also I did notice that when I start the car the AL is not on. I need to turn it back on all the time if I want it. Is this the same for you? Or could it be a bug in the software 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txtenor Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 No...the Ambient Lighting should remain on even after turning the car off and back on again. At least that is how it works in my Ti... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fink Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 My ambient lighting is sporadic when I start the car. I have to turn it off and back on again or change colors to get it to work. I took it back to dealer and they couldn't get it to malfunction. So I just live with it. As far as my gas mileage I do mostly highway and I am at 24.3 . With the 2 liter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastrace01 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 My cousin bought one of the first Honda Insight Hybrid cars that was released for sale. She had to go to the dealer at least once a month for something. TSB, recalls, odd stuff not working, then it got wrecked and was in a body shop for almost a year waiting on parts. She went ahead and bought a whole new car($1000-car classified) due to the rental coverage running out after only 14-days(her fault accident). She wound up keeping the $1000 car and selling the Insight as soon as it was done. She drove the $1000 1992 Mercury Sable for another 100,000-miles and sold it for $1,500. Any new car will have trials and tribulations. I'd think strongly before I'd buy a first year car. Let us know. The problems with new cars that are often repeated with multiple owners usually turn into recalls for all of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksheck2 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have the same issue the ambient lighting is sporadic in my Titanium as well. I have to go back into settings to turn it back on. I took it in to the dealer today but they were unable to duplicate the issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Ruppersburg Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 i have a 2012 Fusion Hybrid around 70k miles, engine light come on and cupholder light is a light blue any ideas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drolds1 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Huh? You have to get the code read before anyone can even begin to speculate what the issue is. However, I can say that it has nothing to do with the color of your cupholder light. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
