[2010 Fusion Transmission Issues?]

Found the paperwork....according to that:

 

Description: Recall 10B15, reprogram PCM, replace clutches, seals, and filter.

 

The line items:

Reprogram PCM

C Control ASY - Transmission

G Kit - Gasket

Sealant - Silicone

QLVC Oil - Automatic Transmission

 

Thanks,

 

That's what they did to mine also. Don't remember anything specific regarding the filter but maybe it was included in the repair kit.

 

Thanks again.

You should be OK after the fix. We have a '10 Fusion that had the transmission issue, and after they replaced it we haven't had an issue since. I believe we had the replacement done around March/April 2010 (got the car August '09), and it's been running smooth since then.

 

Thanks NCSWolfpak,

 

Did they completely replace your transmission?

 

Thanks

Well, Let's See...Took it back in a few weeks ago, dealer said they could not get the condition to present itself that I have experience and that to bring it back in when it did occur. The issues are still there only intermittent but the dealer cannot duplicate. The revised valve body assembly is still a problem and will continue to be until the lease is up and my license plates come off. The vehicle now has 18,600 miles and I have resigned myself to the fact that the Blue Oval cannot build a trans to shift properly. After having multiple different Ford Products that have had issues with a valve body, I can accept that. What I cannot accept is this problem at these purchase prices.

 

The next vehicle may be a Mustang but with harsh winter weather and no AWD available, this may not be so good. I may get an MKS ECO Boost like my dad has but who knows if Lincoln will go the way of Mercury (and yes, it IS possible), maybe it is time for a (Dare I Say) Import!? Have 17 months to decide.....

 

BTW, the dealer also did the PCM Reflash again after the revised valve body was installed and it did not matter.

 

Well....I'm sorry to hear that.

 

I just got my Fusion back after they basically followed the 10B15 repair steps. Initially, it was just going to be the valve body but after checking the fluid and additional diags they removed the transmission, opened it up and inspected. They found some of the clutches "heated" and worn. So they used the repair kit to replace the clutches, seals, gaskets. They also replaced the valve body. Applied the latest TSBs, PCM reflashes.

 

It seems smooth for now but it's only been a few days. Time will tell.

 

I was hoping you'd had a better outcome.

 

Good luck with things.

My V6 AWD Milan now has 16,900 Miles on it. The valve body was done at 12k. Over the last two weeks I have had an intermittent condition where when the car is started cold and warmed up (Sometimes 30 seconds - Sometimes 10 minutes), I back out of my parking space and then put the car into Drive and I get a delayed engagement followed by a bump when it does go in. It so far only happens on a cold start, can some one tell me what this is?

 

I am going to take it in next week...

 

Carforford,

 

Just wondering how your issue went?

 

I have a 2010 V6 Fusion SEL which is having the valve body replaced at 11k. I should get it back from the dealer tomorrow. I was having harsh 1->2 & 2->3 shifts when cold and sporadically when warm.

 

Thanks
