Attention Ford Fusion Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) owners in Los Angeles and Southern California! If you own a 2019 or 2020 Ford Fusion PHEV, it’s essential to be aware of a recent recall affecting approximately 14,452 vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued a warning regarding a battery issue that could pose serious safety risks.
The Problem:
The affected vehicles are equipped with a battery energy control module (BECM) that may be susceptible to damage from excessive voltage and current flow. If the BECM becomes damaged, it can lead to a loss of drive power or, even worse, ignite a fire in the vehicle. This poses a significant risk of injury or death in the event of a collision.
The Solution:
Ford is actively working on a remedy to address the battery energy control module issue. However, as of now, the completion date for the remedy remains unknown. In the meantime, owners are advised not to charge their Ford Fusion PHEVs until the issue is resolved.
Notification Process:
On July 10th, Ford will send out letters to all affected owners to notify them of the battery issue and the ongoing recall. Once the remedy is finalized, a second letter will be sent, instructing owners to take their vehicles to the dealership for necessary repairs.
