I’ve had my 2014 Fusion Hybrid for a few years now, and I’m starting to experience transmission issues. It feels like it’s slipping. Anyone else facing this?

3

Yes! I noticed similar slipping recently. It’s frustrating. I never expected this from a Ford.

My brakes make a weird noise every time I stop. I thought it was just dust, but it hasn’t gone away. Is this normal for Fusion Hybrids?

5

I’ve had brake issues too! It seems like these cars have a lot of quirks that pop up.

The engine performance on my Fusion has been less than stellar lately. It feels like I’m losing power, especially on inclines.

Have you all checked the hybrid battery? Sometimes the engine struggles if the battery isn’t performing well. Just a thought!

That makes sense! I should definitely look into it. Thanks for the tip!

Honestly, I thought buying a hybrid would mean fewer problems. I was wrong! Ford really dropped the ball with these models.

Right? It’s kind of a disappointment. I might still be chasing my tail with repairs.

I remember reading somewhere that the 2014 model had multiple recalls. Maybe they’re related to these issues?

12

That’s interesting! I hadn’t heard about that. Could be worth looking into.

Why don’t we just start a support group? “Ford Fusion Hybrid: We Feel Your Pain!” I’m totally on board with that!

I’ve been having some serious battery issues with my 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid. The warning light keeps coming on, and it struggles to charge properly. Has anyone else faced this?

Totally understand! My battery life has significantly decreased, and it’s frustrating. It’s only been a few years, and I expected it to last much longer!

16

I also faced electrical issues with my car. The dashboard warning lights flicker randomly, and sometimes the entire electrical system just resets. Very annoying!

That’s odd! I thought it was just my car acting up. I had to take mine to the shop, and they mentioned it might be a grounding issue with the electrical system.

Has anybody experienced charging issues when it gets really cold? It seems like my car can’t hold a charge during winter months. Just wondering if that’s common.

Yeah, nwilliams, I can relate! My Fusion also struggles in the cold. It’s like the battery just gives up. Makes me wish I had opted for traditional gas. Anyone else feel that way?

I love my car, but these battery issues are really making me reconsider. I’ve only had it for 5 years, and the battery already feels like it’s on its last legs!
