    • Update on this. I met with the legal firm (https://www.gluckstein.com/class-actions/Ford-Fusion-PHEV-2019-2020-Recall-Class-Action/learn-more) and they have confirmed that they are going ahead with a Class Action against Ford in Canada. If you are affected, suggest you contact them via that form. Note that in Canada, all impacted owners are automatically opted-in for the class action, but wouldn't hurt to get your contact info on their list.  Good to know that someone will be fighting Ford on this.   Lawyer said there are approximately 4000 Canadian vehicles impacted by the recall. He said he will be meeting with Ford lawyers in late April to discuss. He indicated that this meeting would be very informative regarding Ford's approach to resolving this. If they have a fix coming, the settlement would be for additional gas charges. If Ford decides to scrap the fix, the settlement scope gets much larger.   Either way it may take up to a year before it hits the courts. Lawyer suggested I contact him in May for updates. Will report back.
    • Agreed.  Ford's rationale for the 20 miles was flawed.  Obviously they wanted to use the lowest possible cost battery to keep the price down, so they used the "average" commute, but assumed you could charge at work too.  That gave them a battery that was too small to push a car that large/heavy.  Thus the battery degradation issues especially with freeway driving.  It really was a no-win situation for Ford, but they could have made better choices.
    • I wish the battery was about twice as big. My son drives about 20 miles to work in the 2019 Energi, he could, before recall, get there or just about. Would have been nice to be able to drive there and back on one charge. But, I can only dream.
    • Tossing this out there: Looks like we have official confirmation of the latest calibration available from Ford on these TCU's. Had a user post a screenshot from FJDS over on the CyanLabs' forum and looks like UP is the latest calibration level. Although now with a lot of EV functions being removed for us, it's not as big of a deal as it once was.   https://community.cyanlabs.net/t/tcu-waiting-for-home-url/13279/16  
    • Having similar issue caused by water in the trunk. Can't find leak anywhere. If I fix the fan, just going to happen again. Anyone find this leak? 
    • I'd say that isn't quite accurate.  The 2013-2018's are not part of this recall, because they have a different (older) battery.  When Ford updated the battery in 2019 adding 20% more capacity (9.0 kWh total), something went haywire.  The older 7.6kWh batteries (like my 2015 with 114k miles on it) are doing just fine and do not have this issue.  It was the battery cell designer/manufacturer who pushed this "new" battery out that was probably the premature move.
    • I think my Fusion Energi buy-back was made possible by California's Lemon Law.  It was noted more than once somewhere in all the paperwork this involved.......getting a Honda Accord Hybrid as replacement.  I've had a bunch of Hondas in my auto-history all without issue: 2 Civics 2 Preludes 1 Accord 3 CR-Vs   I guess it could just be that Ford's foray into the plug-in technology was a bit premature.  
    • Thats not too bad because I only paid $21K in Jan 21 for my 2019 Fusion Energi Titanium. It only had 4K miles and has less then 30K now. How many miles and is it a Titanium like mine? I may consider it if they offered that for mine. BTW I drank the Tesla juice...lol
    • Hello, @jsamp!         Thank you for your reply, and I hope you DO get the ‘69 Cougar to 1,000,000! I’ve seen your posts and comments over the years when I’d just view the website, so it’s a bit of a trip to see your reply in the best way possible, haha.        I don’t think it will make it to 1,000,000 miles either, at least on the stock parts. I do anticipate having to either have the EV or hybrid motor repaired or replaced, but I’m hoping it happens after 500,000 miles, haha! My mentality is to hopefully grow with the car to the point where I know what to expect in the sense of failures ahead of time. If it does make it to 500,000 miles on stock motors and the stock transmission, my modest math would be to assume I’ll have to replace them at least once every X miles. The “X” is 300,000 miles and counting, for now.       I think weather, preventive measures(like never going below a 20% charge which I don’t), maintenance, and so on will lead to the concluding result, but time will tell most.        I will run that test and get back to you here. Overall, I just hope it keeps chugging along.   [url=https://ibb.co/z4ywsD7][img]https://i.ibb.co/kSRFKv9/F97-F36-FD-B98-B-4-C88-90-C1-37244-C242-BFE.jpg[/img][/url]   Are photos not allowed anymore?
