Problem overview

Some Ford Fusion owners report experiencing cold start issues when cranking but not starting in temperatures below 30 degrees. These problems may stem from diminished battery capacity, which affects the cold cranking amps necessary for starting the engine in cold weather. Additionally, inadequate fuel delivery to the combustion chamber can prevent successful ignition, leading to cranking without starting. Ignition system problems, such as a lack of spark, can also contribute to this no-start condition. Some users have noted intermittent starting issues where the engine fails to fire up despite having sufficient battery power and a functioning starter. For those facing persistent problems, seeking professional assistance is recommended to diagnose and resolve the underlying issues effectively.
