Defect description

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2019 Fusion Energi Hybrid models.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 305, "Electric-Powered Vehicles: Electrolyte spillage and electrical shock protection."

Safety risk

Potential contact with high voltage sources increases the risk of injury.
