Official summary
Some 2017 Fusion vehicles built on or before 20-Sep-2016 may exhibit a slow to update fuel gauge, erratic fuel gauge reading, and/or distance to empty (DTE) concern after a refueling event with no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in powertrain control module (PCM). Do not attempt a repair at this time. Engineering is currently investigating a fix. To assist with the investigation use the Report A Vehicle Concern link at the bottom of the Oasis report and submit a Global Concern Report (GCR). Continue to monitor OASIS for updates.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
