2016 ford fusion transmission

Asked by mrc0218 Nov 04, 2020 at 05:24 PM about the 2016 Ford Fusion SE AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The power train light (orange wrench) came on the other
day while driving followed by a check engine light. The car
appeared to be running fine and we haven't had any issues
that we have noticed since then. We took the car to the
dealership where he said that it produced 3 codes (never
clarifie d what the codes where)  and that they would try
and reset the PCM to see if that fixed the issue. After a
reset and test drive the light came back on. The dealership
stated that we needed to replace the transmission.

I am not convinced that it is a transmission issue as the car
has been driving fine. It has 90k miles on it currently.  Are
there any other sensors or other issues that could cause
this?

The codes it produced probably did not specify a transmission replacement. That was an interpretation by the dealership. Get a second opinion before you agree to any work to be done. Unless you drive the car very hard, the trans should last more than 100K miles and 5 years.
