marelind Posted August 14, 2014 at 03:05 AM Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 at 03:05 AM I took my 2014 FFE to our local mechanic for an oil change at 5200 miles. (My husband believes in taking the car in every six months alternating between our mechanic and the Ford dealership, even though I was told not to bring it in until 7500 miles. That isn't the issue.) Our mechanic said we should take it to the dealership because he could see where the transmission was "seeping" between two parts bolted together. I did take it in, with a picture taken by the mechanic, and they immediately booked it to be checked out. A week and a day later I had my FFE back (having suffered major withdrawl symptoms for a week!). I guess my question is, has anyone else encountered this problem? Is it a common problem in this model? I wondered only because the service advisor was so quick to say they would get it to the transmission department quickly and he knew it would take about a week because they would probably need to order parts in.

Griff Posted August 14, 2014 at 03:44 AM Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 at 03:44 AM Yup. It is a problem with certain models built during a certain time frame. See the link below. http://www.fordfusionenergiforum.com/topic/1248-collection-of-tsbs-related-to-energi/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russael Posted August 14, 2014 at 12:09 PM Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 at 12:09 PM This is disturbing. Since the car has a shield on the bottom of the motor, any kind of leak doesn't make it to the ground so people don't notice it. Maybe I should crawl under there today or tomorrow and see if I have the same problem. Rexracer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to check mine and make sure it's not leaking too. meyersnole 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marelind Posted August 21, 2014 at 08:38 PM Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 at 08:38 PM Griff, thanks for the link. I think I will print it out for my mechanic for his edification. Fusion Energi, I am trying to figure out how to upload the picture. Until I do, there are two pieces of the transmission bolted together. That is where the seeping is occuring. Sorry I can't be more specific. My FFE is a 2014 that I bought in January this year. FusionEnergi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
