I've determined that my 2015 Fusion Energi Titanium does NOT have Start-Stop technology, therefore this technology is NOT causing the ICE to quit after perhaps only three minutes of the latter idling at a stop-light (and no charge remaining in the running batteries) Moreover, common sense dictates that Ford engineers did NOT design the ICE to quit operating entirely when the running batteries are discharged. This is what is occurring because in order to accelerate after intersection lights turn green, the shift lever MUST be put in Park position, then both the brake-peddle and Start Button must be depressed in order to restart the ICE. Consequently, the Ford Service Manager is wrong about this issue being normal operation. Being the case, this anomaly is a precursor to a recall complaint if the problem cannot be remedied.

I have a 2015 Fusion Energi Titanium with 32,000 miles. The engine will quit running after extended idle that usually occurs during long stop lights. Dealer says it's a means to save fuel, but this is nonsensical. Is dealer correct in that this action by design? Or is there perhaps a computer anomaly?

I have a 2015 Fusion Energi Titanium with 32,000. Dittos that the original new-car full-charge indication was 21 to 22 miles. Since then, full-charges have declined to an indicated 13-14 miles. A Ford Service Manager says the "indicated full-charge" is based on "averaging" of driving habits, which in my case, is a combination of freeway and street. He stated that one or more batteries are not defective, and that the "averaging" is the result of a computer algorithm. Consequently, without resetting the computer, then I can assume that I could raise the "average" indicated charge of 13-14 to 21 miles if I drove on a flat road only 45 mph until battery exhaustion at approximately 21 miles? Consequently, is my analysis correct to raise the the indicated mileage from 13-14 to closer to 21 subsequent to a full battery charge?
