That is strange.  I wonder if it thinks it is not in Park.  Put your foot on the brake and then shift to neutral.  Stay in neutral for a few seconds and then shift back to park.  Verify that the parking brake is engaged.  Red icon on the dash.

 

If that doesn't work do this (Yes I know it sounds crazy).

 

Make sure car is in Park and the parking brake is applied and the car is off.

Get out of the car and close the doors. 

Wait until there are no lights left on inside or outside of the car.

Open the door , get in, fasten the seat belt,.

Put the fob int compartment inside of the  console in the front left corner.  Key ring up and the buttons facing the rear of the car.

Put your foot on the brake, push and release the start button.

Did you get the green icon on the dash.

The fob will work in that compartment even if there were no batteries in the fob.

 

If that doesn't work lets do a reset of the car. 

Disconnect the negative lead of the 12 volt battery.

Wait 5 minutes.

Put the negative lead back on the battery as fast as you can to minimize any chance of it sparking.

Tighten the connection but not too tight.  Over tightening can cause the lead to fracture.

 

Does the car work now?

I have a 2013 and have never encountered anything like your problem.

One other thought.  If the contactors that connect the high voltage battery to the car are not pulling in there is no way for the car to move.  There would be nothing to turn the electric motors which also means there is no way to start the engine.  Turn the heat on.  The heater is a 5 kW resistance heater that gets its power from the high voltage battery.  If you don't get heat, that is the problem and the only recourse is via a flat bed truck to a dealer.  If you do get heat it is probably still going to have to go to a dealer.

This is the Ford Fusion Energi forum.  I don't know anything about the 2016 Mustang ECO boost.
