I just used 3 zip ties while I waited for the replacement.

Hello, I recently purchased a 2017 Ford Fusion from another person and the car runs great. A couple days ago, I got a message on the dash saying “shift service required”. We investigated the shifter and found nothing wrong. We purchased a new battery to place in the vehicle since I own it now, but then the message still appeared, and now it won’t let me move the rotary shifter at all. The shifter has a bright red flashing light that is stuck on the P symbol and it will not let me move the transmission into any other driving mode. I believe that it is the bushing, and I plan on ordering another one because mine is completely off as well. I bought the car like that. Do you believe that fixing the bushing would fix this problem or would another major problem be the reason for this?

The only time it matters if it’s connected is when shifting. And yes if it doesn’t shift into park it’s a roll hazard. Assuming the parking brakes work they can by used if parking and the transmission doesn’t engage park. If shifting to reverse or drive and it comes off before it achieves the selected gear it’s not good, but it should tell you in the message center and you’ll have to put the cable physically back on. If you put it back on, shift to drive, and the transmission makes it to drive it should be fine until you park and then it’s a roll of the dice if it will stay on to shift to park. If I was 3 hours from home I would definitely put it back on and drive home.

@Shop Talk - Need your input please! Tomorrow I’ll be picking up my 2018 Ford Fusion for this very issue from a Ford Dealership in Baton Rouge. Thanks to your video I was able to diagnose and confirm that I needed this bushing and I relayed this to the service writer. Despite that she’s trying to charge me $185 for diagnosing (even though I told her on the phone what I needed done) plus another $130 for parts and labor on this $2 bushing. I feel like Im being robbed and I’m definitely at least going to dispute the diagnosis charge. But I was curious how long you think it should reasonably take from start to finish to change the bushing and the cost to get this bushing installed at a Ford dealer?
@CarShopTalk
Жыл бұрын
I would argue the diagnostic charge if you told them what was wrong with it and just asked for the bushing to be replaced. Ford warranty paid 0.6 hours on the recall on 2013-16 Fusions 19S16 and 22S43. Warranty is usually a little short on time, probably more like 0.8 hours at what ever the shop rate is.

@@CarShopTalk I greatly appreciated your quick reply! When I went to pick up my car from the dealership yesterday I was billed almost $400! For the bushing install it was $165 labor + $5 for the bushing (labor hourly wasn’t shown on the invoice but seems like I was billed more than 0.8 hrs) + $185 for unnecessary diagnosis + $18 fee for supplies/hazard disposal and almost $30 tax. I asked the service writer why I pm still being billed the diagnosis when I told her on the phone that I needed a new bushing. She initially tried to say that I didn’t say that on the phone but then I directly quoted what I said on the phone and quoted her response back to her which was “well it could be that but it could also be (all these other issues she rattled off)” and she didn’t have a response after I said that. Bottom line is she said her manager had already left since it was almost 5pm and she didn’t have the authority to remove the diagnosis fee so I’m going to talk to the manager on Monday to try and her that reimbursed. I’ always want to take my vehicle to the actual dealership to get work done so I know it’s done right and I’m willing to pay a premium to do so but I feel like I absolutely got taken advantage of and I’m not going for it after a $125 tow bill (would have been a $79 tow bill if I hadn’t taken her tow company recommendation but that’s my fault). With 3 Ubers on top of all that the grand total was $552.98 for a 50 cent bushing. Apologies for the long message I guess I’m just venting but thanks again for the help!

This code showed up for me while going 65 down the highway. My cable is still attached, I had a friend shift the gears while I watched from the engine bay, the linkage seems to be in good shape, I dont see or feel any slop. Everything I've seen on the net seems to be a definite, "this bushing is worn or missing or the cable is no longer attached" but everything seems fine on my car, its not sluggish to shift, or sloppy. Plus this problem is intermittent. It only seems to happen after longer drives ~50 miles or more. But when I turn the car off and back on, the yellow wrench light goes away. Today was the first time I've had the shift sys fault error, and it happened while going at highway speeds. Is something just barely out of spec and occasionally causing the code to throw and then go away?
@CarShopTalk
11 ай бұрын
I would guess it’s something going out of spec intermittently. It could be a problem with the reading from the transmission as to what gear position the shifter is in, or the gear shift actuator itself. It’s also possible the cable is near to being out of adjustment.

I'm not getting the shift message but it will not go into drive somtimes. It has not left me totally stranded because if you turn the car off and turn it back on then it will let you put it into drive and the wrench light comes on.The dealership actually replaced the engine twice LOL. They said it was a recall on the engine but I assume they misdiagnosed it cuz it's it doing the exact same thing. Now they're saying the shift module is out so I bought one of those. I'm going to swap that out tonight and check this bushing but I would love to have my code reader set up the way you have yours cause man these people at the dealership are morons.

Thank you for your help and I'm going to buy that forscan tool eventually. Is there a way to clear the wrench code without the tool? I'm about to replace the shift module today and the wrench code is still on. The dealership says it's the shift module but they didn't charge us so they didn't clear out the code when we picked up the car.

@@CarShopTalk Wrench light went away when I hooked up a regular obd2 scanner before installing the new shift module... but it said no codes found. Kinda weird. Swapped out the shift module today. So far so good but the problem of it not going into drive at random times is so spotty more driving is required. Thanks for all your help. Definitely gonna buy that Forscan stuff soon.

I think the recall is on 2013-16 Fusion. They need to open it up to more model years because its affecting more vehicles than those that are covered.

Normally never. I haven’t seen any of the replacement bushings fail so I’m assuming they’ve corrected the rubber / plastic issue with the original ones. I wouldn’t expect to ever have to replace it a second time.

The only thing I can think of he may have done is clear and relearn the adaptive strategy. Ford’s been pushing that pretty hard on them. Basically you clear the adaptive strategy and slowly accelerate all the way up to 10th, then slowly decel all the way to a stop. Repeat 7 or 8 times. I usually have to go out in the country to do it. It does make a noticeable difference in shifting on some of them.
