I'm hoping the long-term impact is saving money on gas. I'm really checking to see if there are any negative impacts on the truck long-term. I don't see why there would be, but I'm no expert.
I hate taking the car in, it happened two weeks before I need an oil change so I decided to hit two birds with one stone. It was a faulty window switch and they replaced the switch and changed the oil during the same visit. It was covered under the warranty.
Does anyone else drive in Econ mode the majority of the time to increase gas mileage?
I can't find any information that states this would harm the vehicle. The performance declines slightly, but I can deal with this if it means better gas mileage and no long-term impact.
The manual tells us the truck will tell us when it needs an oil change or every 10,000 miles. Being someone that used to change his own oil on older cars, I was always used to changing oil every 3,000 miles. I bought a brand new Fusion in 2012 and changed every 5,000 miles since it uses...
FYI - I took it to the dealer and it had a faulty window switch. Luckily they had one in stock so it was fixed the same day and was covered by the warranty. Frustrating for this to happen, but at least they fixed it.
I was driving for over an hour and then I pulled over to get gas. I could not put it in park, change the gear, or start the ruck after that. My truck was completely shut down by computer software. It needed to be towed. Additionally, I could not remove the key. For whatever reason the software...
I got a call from the dealership today and mine is ready to for pickup. Apparently this recall also caused my battery to drain. It sounds like they have a good solution in place.
They called and said the recall has been fixed, but some accessory is draining the battery (12 Volt battery). This has not been a positive experience with my new truck. I'm hoping they are getting all the negative items out early.
Is that for the IPM Parking Brake fix? I had mine towed on Saturday night and I was blowing them up on Monday morning. It's been radio silence since I got a rental.
I have this issue with my 2026 XL Hybrid. It drove fine for the first 1,000 miles and then I couldn't put it in park and it wouldn't start. I had it towed to the dealership less than one month after buying it. They gave me a loaner, but I have not received a response on repair time or what is...
