Finding a mid-sized sedan that doesn’t look like the next can be tough. Thankfully, the Ford Fusion has definitely found its own groove. Sadly, there were some problems with the blower motor you might want to know about.
How many recalls did the Ford Fusion have for its blower motor?
Technically, there aren’t any official recalls for this component as of September of 2020. But there are a few complaints. Some include:
- Blower motors that catch fire or smoke
- Blower motor wiring harnesses melting
- Blower motors that need frequent replacement
Ok, so there aren’t any recalls concerning the blower motor; why should you care about a few complaints?
Ford Fusion Blower Motor Complaints
While complaints about the Ford Fusion blower motor are sparse, the chief concern is that some of these motors can cause fires and related problems — such as smoking and/or melting components such as wiring harnesses — in some vehicles.
Since the blower motors of other Ford vehicles have been recalled for similar problems, it’s possible that the Ford Fusion motors will eventually be recalled, as well. However, with a low number of complaints about the issue, that seems unlikely to be the case.
