 Description of the problemI was just leaving the street from our subdivision during morning rush hour, made a right hand turn when there was a break in traffic and just as i was accelerating the engine just seemed to die. I was able to steer the car to the side of the street to get out of traffic and discovered that the car was still running at a rough idle and a "wrench" symbol showed up on my dash. When the traffic cleared i was able to back up into the street into our subdivision, got the car turned around and drove back to my house at less than 5mph. After letting the car set for a while i started it up and it ran fine. I then called a mechanic and explained what happened and asked him to check it out, which he agreed to do. During the drive to the mechanic the same problem occurred about 1/2 mile from his location and i was again able to get out of the flow of traffic and made it to his location. After leaving the car at his location i went on line to research if any other 2010 fusion owners had experienced the same problem and found that there were hundreds that had, many of whom contacted ford with no luck in getting them to acknowledge the problem. The problem appears to be associated with the throttle body assembly. I also called ford to discuss this with them and asked why they had not initiated a recall on this vehicle since so many people had this problem and it was what i considered to be an extreme safety hazards for drivers when this happened. I was told that this was not an issue for which a recall notice had been initiated. I have had ford products for over 40 years and was very surprised that this was the kind of response i got. I am surprised that someone has not initiated a class action suit against them for this problem since it is such a serious safety hazard.
