Hello Fellow Fusion Energi Drivers. This morning I woke up, took a shower, and then started my car from the MyFordMobile App as I normally do in the morning. When I went out to my vehicle, it was still off, windows frosted, etc. I pressed unlock on my key fob and nothing. I tried to unlock my doors using the touch pad on the door and nothing. I had absolutely no power to my vehicle. This has happened to me before but normally I would just plug my charger back in, give it a minute, and it would be fine. This time, nothing seemed to work. I called roadside assistance and they came and showed me how to use my key to unlock my doors....then they proceeded to give me a jump. He told me to leave it running for about 30 minutes, so I plugged it in and came inside. 5 minutes later I went outside and my car was off again and there was no power to it once again. I'm now waiting for roadside assistance to come back and give me another boost. So why is the reason for this happening? My guess is that this was the absolute coldest weekend of the winter (I live in Michigan) and I haven't driven the car since Friday and the cold did something to affect my vehicle. Any input from the forum would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently working from home until this gets resolved. Thank you, Omar

I got my 2014 Fusion Energi back in June....to be honest, I have never changed the way I drive and because nobody really educated me that the # of miles one gets on a charge depends on your driving efficiency, I never knew I needed to. I always thought that I'd get 21 miles per charge and that's that. Now that I've said that, up until the weather has gotten cold, I was getting between 18-20 miles on a full charge. Some times I'd get 21-25 miles but that was rare. Again, my braking sucks...now that the weather is cold outside, it says I'm fully charged, the car shows 19 miles available, and I rarely even get 15 miles on a charge now. Is this because of the cold weather or because of my poor driving habits. I drive fast, I brake hard, and don't pay attention to the driving coach, etc. Is it even possible now to get my range back up to where it was and where other people are saying they're at, jsut by changing my driving habits, or is the damage done? Thanks!

I just joined this forum today. Googled some questions about my vehicle and it directed me here. I work in Seats and Restraints at Ford Motor Company (I'm on the seats side). I can get more information for anyone who needs it. I called the dealership and they said if the Airbag light isn't on, not to come in since parts are limited. They are more than happy to look at it for you thought if you want them to. No light means no issue...but definitely take it in if it will make you more comfortable.
