 After making a right turn and attempting to accelerate, the wrench light illuminated for the first time and the vehicle appeared to stall and i could not accelerate. thankfully, it's a saturday morning and traffic was light and i was not on the highway. after pulling over and putting this information in a search engine i found numerous complaints of this happening to other ford owners. some were on the highway and some in heavy traffic. the light eventually goes off, so of course the owner assumes there is no problem. the repair cost is expensive and this is an obvious problem ford knows about and is refusing to fix it. this is very dangerous and i don't think a lot of people know to report this problem to you. *tr

 When driving at a normal speed, the idle of the car quickly drops and you are unable to maintain your speed. you immediately are forced to stop the car, turn it off and let it sit to reset it's self where ever on the road you are. this has happen randomly last few weeks. just a few days ago it got increasingly worse. was entering highway off an exit trying to merge. was unable to get the speed because the idle dropped. luckily had just enough time to get to shoulder to sit and wait. had it been few seconds longer would of merged with highway traffic and then car would of came to a quick halt. the diagnosis to this problem the throttle body went bad. *tr

 During the night our 2009 ford fusion rolled down are driveway and ended up almost in the street. i could see the tire marks in the snow and see that it did in fact roll, i checked the gearshift and it was in park. i pushed on the car and it rolled a little more then stopped. service manager at the dealership said there was another car in for the same problem. guy at the car rental shop said that alot of their fusions had to have the transmissions replaced. *tr
