BACK OVER PREVENTION: REARVIEW SYSTEM BRAKING

The rear view camera operates intermittently. Sometimes it works fine, other times the picture is blank or is extremely blurry with horizontal lines through it or the screen just displays snow. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. it can work in the morning, but not when I leave to go home after work. It can works for days, then not work for days. I called Ford due to an article that came across my news feed about rear camera recalls, but Ford said I'm not covered. This has been going on for several months now. A dealer wanted to charge several hundred dollars to check it out, but I didn't want to pay. To me this should be covered under warranty.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS

My front camera is often unavailable. I took it in multiple times and they couldn’t find an issue. Recently my back up camera has been acting up. It is unavailable most of the time, other times the screen is black, sometimes it’ll work and then cut out. There is a recall on other ford vehicles for this issue. I looked up if it needs a software update and it doesn’t. We’ve checked the camera and wiring harness and they’re both intact and in good condition.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

Upon traveling we noticed a loud engine knocking when the car was at idle. We immediately pulled over and checked the engine. The coolant level was lower than normal and the engine oil level was fine. We immediately returned home and parked the car. While returning home the front camera continued to display an error message that it was not working and would repeat every 30 seconds. After doing research I read that Ford has known about the Fusion Ecoboost having a design flaw where coolant leaks into the cylinder heads and can crack the head as well as a flexplate crack that appears. They issued a "fix" for the flexplate to some models and I would like this applied to my car as I feel they knowingly continued to sell this model with the issues without prior warnings or notices.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

My situation started with pulling the car out of the garage one morning going to work. Shaking was experienced, after a couple of times with that happening, one morning heading out for work the light came on the dashboard, I immediately setup an appointment with AAA, who once started working on the car felt they had resolved the issue, however the same day I drove off the premises for AAA the light came back on, I ended up taking the car back to them four times before they stated they could not resolve the problem and suggested I take it to Ford, which I did. Once there I was informed by the advisor the car was in recall and they would provide me with a loaner until repairs were done. I drove the loaner for two weeks only to be called by the advisor and informed that my car would not qualify for repairs and he needed the loaner back right away because he was possibly in trouble. I had a conversation about why, what etc but no good news. I returned the loaner and took my car home where it has been because I don’t have $7000.00 for a new motor.
