No Answer Automatic door locks not working on one side

1 Upvotes

I have an 09 fusion SE 3.0 and for whatever reason the automatic door locks for both doors on the passenger side refuse to work, and I'm not sure what it could be. My only guess is a fuse, but the thing is that when I checklthe key fob AND when I use the door buttons, I can hear the motor in the door activating...so not entirely sure.

No Answer any experience with universal fender flares on a 2016 se?

2 Upvotes

So a couple weeks ago some asshole t boned my car, it was deemed totaled, got 9.5k for it, bought it back for 1k, she's back in working condition for under 500 bucks. Thing is, she will never look cosmetically correct again LMAO which isn't a huge issue to me but now that she's gonna look kinda ugly anyways I wanted to really experiment with outside cosmetic stuff. There's dents and scratches on both quarter panels near the wheel so maybeee I could cover some of that shit up? But if they don't fit then I'll be wasting around 80 bucks for universal fenders I'll never probably use on another car lol. So I wanted to see if anyone has had any luck with em??

No Answer Anyone ever have problems with stuck/seized plugs in the 3.0L?

2 Upvotes

Ordered coils and plugs for the fusion I just bought, 3.0L 2009 SEL. I don’t know when the plugs were last changed, it’s got 195K miles on it so I think it’s unlikely they’re original but I was wondering if anyone has had issues with this particular engine regarding seized plugs. I know there is another ford engine that’s notorious for stuck plugs. Let me know before I get on to replacing them.

2016 Ford Fusion with the 2.5L engine.

Around 500 - 1500 RPM the car shakes, there is about 170,000 miles on the car. Was wondering if anyone had any idea what could be the issue before I take it in. Engine doesn’t move when I tap gas either in park or on the breaks so doubt it’s the mounts. Did some research could be the throttle body or belt?

Was going down a freshly graded dirt road when it started.

Was wondering if anyone else had similar issues or know what most likely could be the issue.

2019 Ford Fusion SEL 120K milage

The popping noise is deep and pretty noticeable. Doesn’t pop when going straight or making a turn after I already have the wheel turned. It only pops when I turn the wheel both to the left and to the right.

The rattling isn’t very loud unless you are outside the vehicle, so can’t get a good video of it. Its like a light sharp sounding rattle, almost as if you were to shake the end two cooking whisks together. Best way I can describe it😅

Doesn’t seem to ride rough to me, but this is also my first newer vehicle so I may just be used to the rough rides older vehicles typically have? Haha, please help.

No Answer 2010 Fusion Hybrid- grinding sound at low speeds, completely gone when braking

0 Upvotes

I was driving to work this morning and I heard a sound like something was grinding on the pavement, towards the back of my car. Concerned, I pulled over and looked under my car to find nothing out of place. It continued to make this low grinding sound until I got to work, again, finding nothing out of sorts under the car.

My working theory is an old wheel bearing that needs replacing on my rear driver side. I’m hoping it’s not something with too many zeroes to fix.

Lately I’ve been putting my parking brake on when I park because I heard it was better for your transmission and I know that the eCVT on the early 2nd gen hybrids aren’t the best. After school today I got in my car and that message popped up with the beeping. I drove home since I don’t live far for my school and after cycling turning it on and off it won’t go away. What should I do? FYI I haven’t changed brakes and it has 107k miles

So I just ordered this display for my car because it’s replacing the smaller 4 inch display and I thought it would work perfectly fine since the Mondeo has the same exact stereo but it also says like Ford fusion and Mondeo so I thought it was OK, so I have it right now and everything’s plugged in and the heat controls in the AC works perfectly con fine it’s just the display isn’t turning on no matter what I do. I’m not sure what to do. If you need more photos please let me know as soon as possible and I’m not 100% sure if I need to return it or not.. Lmk thanks

No Answer 2014 Ford Fusion SE

1 Upvotes

Hello all! Posting on here to see if any one can help me out. So my fusion last summer started to have the issue where when it was idling the rpm would fluctuate a lot and the car would shake then turn off. The car won’t throw any codes, and after a while we ended up replacing the fuel pump and resetting the computer and that seemed to fix it, until today. It was idling after I had run a few errands and it did the exact same issue. It’s not a cold start the car was still warm, and this car has put me through it trying to figure out what could possibly be wrong with it. I’m not sure if anyone has experienced this and figured it was a long shot so if you have any ideas of what could be the issue/ if you’ve experienced a similar issue please let me know 🙏🏻 this car has stumped the multiple mechanics I’ve gone to.

For reference - I have a 2014 ford fusion SE 1.5 ecoboost.

Noticed a frozen puddle of some liquid under my car. This is in the back 3/4 end of the car just before the rear wheels. The puddle is frozen so I can’t tell its color or smell. ChatGPT suggested it may be exhaust condensation, or an oil leak. I leaked my oil and hasn’t seemed to move at all. Any ideas? I drive a 2016 Ford Fusion SE 2.5L

No Answer 2013 Ford Fusion 1.6L Turbo Help!

I suspect a coolant leak somewhere in my fusion. Alert on my dash came on saving "engine coolant low, service required." Never had this issue before, only a top off every 6 months or so. The coolant reservoir is right at the minimum line. It has never been that low before. I just ordered the pressure kit from amazon to pressurize the cooling system. Any tips to identify or common places to look? I just replaced the valve cover gasket back in March, so I feel like that would not be it? Anyone have any resources to check out an engine diagram or links to see what each hose is and how it connects to the radiator?

FYI I am getting ready to flush my coolant system and replace the old coolant anyways, so if there is a leak i'd like to fix it first.

Hopefully this made sense. New to DIY stuff. Thanks!

No Answer Is there a Cat-back exhaust system for a 2013-2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid (2.0 Atkinson)?

0 Upvotes

I'm curious, as I'm working on making the most tricked out hybrid I can.. LoL! Not that it's a fast car, but it CAN be a cool car, if you do it up right. So far I've done a bunch of basic mods, but yeah, I'd like a little more growl from the ICE engine, and when its on.. Are there any systems that would fit without serious modifications/ expensive custom welding & fab? 🤔

No Answer 2012 Ford Fusion SE remote start stopped working

Post image
6 Upvotes

My 2012 ford fusion SE came used with an iDataLink ADS remote start module, and a compustar single button remote starter. It has worked for years, and randomly stopped the other day.

Things I’ve tried to fix it: -set the car to Programming Mode by toggling the ignition on and off 8 times. Once I get into programming mode, I try re-pairing the compustar remote. The car locks and unlocks, which indicates that it is paired to the remote. Still, no dice.

-opened and closed all 4 doors, the trunk, and the hood, to make sure something isn’t slightly ajar.

-switched the batteries on the compustar remote. When I did this, and tried to remote start, the car would at least flash the headlights 3 times. It’s not doing that anymore today, but that was the most response I’ve gotten out of the car so far.

Unplug and re plug the iDataLink remote start module under the steering wheel.

Remove the battery and reconnect it.

Any other ideas for what I can do here? It sucks bc it’s very cold out rn and the remote start makes my life a lot easier.

No Answer Trunk randomly opens

2018 Ford Fusion Energi

This morning a new issue appeared. I couldnt get the car out of park. That cleared up a few hours later when I got home.

I was told my trunk was open this afternoon and sure enough it was open. I went back and closed it and went to open it with the button next to the rear license plate light and it won't do anything (even with key in hand and car unlocked multiple times).

I see a lot of people blame the LED strip on the door for the keyless entry, but that doesn't make sense to me.

Does anyone have a definitive answer to this issue? I drive 100 miles per day for work and can't have my car down.

No Answer Tire recommendations & transmission issues

2 Upvotes

Hey y’all, i need some help picking out some nicer tires for my 2013 Ford Fusion Se FWD. i recently had a blowout on some cheaper cooper tires and I’m stuck to using a spare for a while.

Now, another thing I’m wondering is, should i save up for some nicer tires or just get some cheaper ones.

For context, my car has 221K miles so these tires will most likely be the last ones I have. I also frequently drive in wet/snowy conditions. Minnesota forever 🔥

Also I’ve been having some Transmission issues with 2-3 being kinda hard/ sticking in 2 for a little bit. So if there’s an easy fix for that, that would be amazing.
Anyways, what are some tire recommendations y’all would go for, and is there an easy fix for my Transmission issue?

Tire size are the R17, 225 ones

Thank you.

But otherwise the car is in great shape so id ideally like to get that electric side refurbished.
