morabu Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 as i'm driving the car today, out of nowhere car pops out of second gear. i attempt to put it back in gear it literally feels like there is no gate for me to put it into. i am however able to put it into 3rd gear and pull into a parking lot and wait on a tow. as i am pulling into the parking lot i row through the gears to see what's what. i have 1st/3rd/5th NO 2nd/4th/R i haven't the slightest clue what it is for sure. i thought that a worn clutch wouldn't engage any gear. weird that all the front gears engage and drive fine, but the back gears are non-existant. i am no mechanic at all though. i grandpa the shit outta this car and am at 58,000 on my 60,000 warranty Ford does not cover the "clutch lining"? what exactly does that entail? am i footing the bill on this, or Ford? thanks, J.R.

Dave1647545494 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 the clutch disc is a wear item like brake pads. if your only missing 3 gears its probably an internal trans issue and not the clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Sounds like something gave up inside the trans. Without looking it could be anything from a screwed up shift cable (assuming thats how a Fusion works) to an internal shift fork. I bet the clutch is fine.

JaSSon Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I didn't know a Fusion could be had with a manual. Good info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
