No idea. I'm moving the thread to a more appropriate forum section.

Can you let us know where you moved this thread to?

I had a similar event after I had front-end body work done. Turned out to be no coolant in the auxiliary system that cools the computer (that's what the dealer told me).

Had same problem. Changed old dirty throttle body with a shiny new one and problem solved! It's a known issue with all the non hybrid Fusions undergoing a recall on the throttle bodies I believe. Don't go to dealer. They want $500 for a $60 Ford OEM part you can get off Amazon and ten minutes of installation work...

I had the same problem. No engine light, or codes. The little wrench would come up, then it would go to limp mode. Worked on it for a while before figuring out it was the MECS pump. Replaced and refilled coolant, no more problems.
