2019 Ford Fusion

my shifter linkage bushing broke on my 2019 fusion when i went to put car in reverse leaving me stuck in the middle of a road. This is a known issue but the recall isn’t for later year fusions even though it has the same failure and defective bushing.

Known Coolant intrusion issue came up with the 2.0 Ecoboost. Began to lag on takeoff causing unsafe acceleration profiles. Took to dealership who confirmed poor design was the root cause.

Bought my car in 2019. Was unaware of coolant intrusion problem on my vehicle. Check engine light came on and mechanic just quoted me $13,000 to fix.

While driving we noticed the engine light came on so we took it to our local mechanic. He said we were leaking coolant and it was too extensive fro him to fix so he suggested we put coolant in every few days. We researched the problem and found that these cars had a recall for this exact issue yet our VIN does not show it. We went to Ford Dealership and they confirmed we need a new engine as they connected the IDS. This vehicle was built at the Hermosillo plant, has the same 1.5L EcoBoost engine, and has experienced the exact coolant intrusion failure that Ford recalled or extended coverage for on other vehicles. I am asking Fotrd to reconsider my case because my vehicle has the identical defect despite my VIN not being included. My kids purchased this car for my wife and I in October 2025. I also included a VIN Report based on my VIN Number and if scroll to the bottom of that report maybe page 23 you will see the Recall.

My backup camera often freezes after I shift from reverse to drive. The screen turns blue and at time will have a live video of me driving showing what’s behind my car. Also my engine loses power and doesn’t accelerate as it should. There is a powertrain and censor error that shows due to the Che k engine light being on. I had the issue fixed once at a ford dealer however the issue was not resolved. It started up again 48 hours later.I have noticed that all other ford fusions have the same two issues and were included in the recalls but the 2019’s are not ? Please assist I have been trying to have these issues resolved for years with no success.

The vehicle experienced engine failure due to coolant intrusion into the cylinders on the engine. I've experienced engine misfires, rough running, check engine light, and I'm worried I'm going to see an eventual engine failure requiring engine replacement. The BIGGEST issue is I've had total loss of power in my engine while on a public road more than once, before the check engine light ever came on. Its terrifying. It is dangerous. And Ford is aware it is dangerous. Ford issued Customer Satisfaction Program 21N12 for certain affected vehicles due to this exact issue, but my vehicle is past the warranty so it's SOL. The failure appears to be caused by a defect in the engine design allowing coolant to enter the combustion chamber. This is clearly a widespread defect as Ford had to create their limited warranty for it. This is something that needs to be recalled for all affected vehicles experiencing coolant intrusion and engine failure because it is not safe to be on the road.

I have took it in to get it repaired about a year ago the sensor went off and got them fix but when I explain what else was happening they found nothing months down I has other people and couldn’t find the problem with my vehicle which is now a risk to drive the steering wheels gets stiff and hard to turn I have to wait for the system to kick back originally I was told it was a O2 sensor

My 2019 Ford Fusion 2.0L EcoBoost (89,000 miles) experienced a sudden, severe engine malfunction due to a known manufacturing defect. The vehicle exhibited severe engine shuddering and a harsh cold-start misfire upon ignition. A diagnostic scan revealed trouble codes P0316 (Misfire on Startup), P0302 (Cylinder 2 Misfire), and P0304 (Cylinder 4 Misfire). A mechanic verified that these codes are the result of internal coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders, exactly as documented in Ford Technical Service Bulletin TSB 19-2346. The structural design flaw in the engine block allows engine coolant to breach the cylinder head gasket area and pool inside the combustion chambers. This presents a critical safety hazard: the vehicle is at risk of sudden engine stalling while driving on public roads, a complete loss of motive power in traffic, and potential engine hydro-lock, which can cause catastrophic mechanical failure or an engine compartment fire. Ford is refusing to address this safety defect outside of warranty, leaving a hazardous vehicle on the road.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that after receiving notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V440000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); that the parts were available, the local dealer was contacted, and the contact was informed that parts were still not available and were on back order. The manufacturer was notified of the issue and confirmed that parts were still on back order. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact had not experienced a failure.

My 2019 Ford Fusion has been diagnosed with the prominent EcoBoost Coolant Intrusion defect requiring a newer 2020+ redesigned engine replacement. Ford is refusing to replace it or provide any discounts even though it's clearly a engineering defect. The vehicle has just 38,500 miles in 7 years of ownership. It has been regularly well maintained & not driven hard. This is inexcusable that Ford is not standing behind their product that has a plethora of well documented failures on these particular flawed design engines, namely the 2.0L EcoBoost that came in this vehicle.

When driving all of a sudden I feel the car loose power as I accelerated the car just reeved up and slowed down to a full stop. I put it in park turned it off sat for a few minutes. Restarted the car and put it in drive the engine RPM made a reving sounds but did not engage. I had to wait for a tow truck. When the tow truck arrived he started the car and drove it on the ram and locked it in and drove the car to my home. Tow truck driver unlocked my car and drove it off the bed of his truck. The car starts and that is it. It will dive a few feet then disengage.

Misfire due to cracked cylinder wall letting coolant leak into the cylinder in the 2.0L turbo

Im constantly having to put coolant in. My car won’t let me update. I have to pay at a dealership which is too expensive . Also, the two plug in to charge your phone doesn’t work.

All four tires separated at the bead, catastrophic tire failure. Thank goodness they went flat in the driveway and not traveling at 65 mph on the interstate. 235/50R/17. These are 80,000 mile tires and this occurred at 35,500 miles. Purchase from Costco and when we went back they basically told us they would only warranty 20% of tire even though the warranty should have been 50%.

The vehicle experienced engine failure due to coolant intrusion into the cylinders on a 1.5L EcoBoost engine. Symptoms included coolant loss, engine misfires, rough running, check engine light, and eventual engine failure requiring engine replacement. The problem has been confirmed by Ford and is consistent with the known coolant intrusion defect affecting many Ford 1.5L EcoBoost engines. Ford issued Customer Satisfaction Program 21N12 for certain affected vehicles due to this exact issue. The vehicle has approximately 76,000 miles and is under the mileage limit referenced in Ford’s program, but Ford denied full coverage and only offered partial financial assistance toward the repair. This issue creates a serious safety concern because the engine can lose power, misfire, overheat, or fail unexpectedly while driving. The failure appears to be caused by a defect in the engine design allowing coolant to enter the combustion chamber. I believe this is a widespread defect and should be covered for all affected vehicles experiencing coolant intrusion and engine failure.

2019 Ford Fusion with 82,362 miles- just told engine coolant leaking into the cylinder walls and engine replacement is needed. Dealer said Do not drive it! This is a known problem with this model and Ford has not recalled it. Ford is aware and have sent TS Bulletins to their service departments but why NOT recall. My daughter’s safety has been at risk and now the value is worthless Or an engine replacement. I cannot reach any leadership from Ford, just a call center which is telling me nothing can be done.

transmission cable bushing failed. I see there is a recall for older models. The shift cable came off the transmission just like the recall problem had. this left my car stuck in reverse so i could not move the car or start it after I turned it off and I could not get it off the street.

Very frequently, the rear view camera will stop working, glitch and go black. Then give the message, camera is unavailable

This vehicle is another of many that is suffering from coolant intrusion due to Fords faulty design. This 2.0 has 68 thousand miles and needs a new engine. This has been a known problem for this engine between 2013 and 2019. We were sold a new car that would be reliable for years, it’s not. Now we may be out upwards of $10,000.00 for a car we just paid off a year ago.
