WASHINGTON - Ford Motor Co said Wednesday it is recalling 270,000 Ford Fusion cars in North America that could roll away. The automaker said the recall covers Fusion cars from the 2013 through 2016 model year that have a shifter cable that may detach from the transmission allowing a driver to remove the ignition key when the vehicle is not in park.

Ford is aware of three reports of property damage and one injury report potentially related to the issue. Ford said owners should always use the parking brake and will be notified when a fix is available.

They should recall the owners instead who are likely the reason the vehicles will roll away in the first place.

Lawsuit: Ford hid Focus, Fiesta transmission problems — then blamed customersA class-action lawsuit representing 1.9 million Ford Fiesta and Focus owners has Ford on the hook for tens of millions if not billions in penalties. Brought my wife's Focus in four times in two months because of 'shuddering, slipping, bucking, jerking, hesitation while changing gears' - and was told 'that's what cars do nowadays.' Still got charged the $100 fee too. Sold it instead of bringing it in the fifth time. Had to get a completely new transmission on my 2013 focus. Thank god I didn’t have to pay a dime.
