In my 2020 plug-in Fusion, Stop Safely Now appeared on the screen as I drove on the freeway. While driving 70 mph, I suddenly had difficulty accelerating, and my air conditioner stopped working and began blowing hot air. By using hazard lights, I was able to slowly exit the freeway. The system disabled the engine and prevented the vehicle from starting. After being stranded on the off ramp, we were towed home. The cost of which exceeded $100. Without displaying any warning messages when we arrived home, the car started right up. After letting it sit for a few days, I tried to drive it again. In my attempt to accelerate, I reached 50 mph, but again the same warning appeared and I was unable to accelerate. It is ridiculous to not be able to trust a car that is less than five years old to drive safely and confidently. I paid too much for this luxury brand from Ford to cause this kind of issue. It clearly is related to the active recall that Ford doesn’t have a solution for.

I am filing a complaint regarding Ford Safety Recall 23S33 (NHTSA Campaign 23V440) for my 2020 Ford Fusion Energi. I brought my freshly purchased vehicle to my local authorized dealer, Sheehy Ford, to fix the high-voltage battery replacement recall. The dealership told me they had to order the part before they could schedule the repair. They have since stated that Ford corporate is experiencing low stock and is not allocating the necessary remedy parts to the dealer network, and referred me to call Ford corporate. Purchased this vehicle on 21 March 2026; took it to dealer to get the recall fixed on 23 March. Dealer said it would be delayed due to the recall being started in [XXX] (where the vehicle was shipped from via carmax, and sold to me in [XXX]). After a month, the dealer opened a case with Ford corporate (XXX). I called to check status, was put on hold for 20 minutes, then transferred, and was then disconnected. It has been 4 months since I took it in to get the recall repaired. The manufacturer is failing to provide a timely safety remedy as required by federal law, leaving me to drive a vehicle with a documented risk of fire and sudden loss of motive power. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
