Leading up to the failure, I noticed that the engine RPM would fluctuate considerably and the vehicle appeared to have difficulty maintaining engagement in a gear.  On the day of the failure, I was traveling approximately 50 mph when the vehicle suddenly stopped responding normally to the accelerator. When I pressed the accelerator, the engine RPM increased significantly, but the vehicle would not accelerate accordingly. It appeared that engine power was no longer being properly transferred through the transmission to the wheels.  I was only able to get the vehicle home in a severely reduced-performance/limp condition.  The vehicle was also leaking fluid associated with this failure.  I subsequently received an NHTSA recall alert for Recall 26V376, “Transmission Clutch May Fracture and Leak Fluid,” which includes certain Ford Fusion model years. The failure I experienced appears very similar to the condition described in this recall, particularly the loss of propulsion accompanied by increased engine RPM and the presence of a fluid leak.  However, when I checked my VIN, I was informed that my vehicle is not currently included in the recall.  I am submitting this safety complaint because my vehicle experienced what appears to be a substantially similar failure, including loss of propulsion while traveling approximately 50 mph and subsequent fluid leakage. I am requesting that NHTSA review my vehicle's failure in connection with Recall 26V376 and determine whether the affected vehicle population may need to be expanded.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2013","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"FUSION","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
