Interesting, but not surprising!  The Fusion got Ford's attention, but not so lucky for the rest of us.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

What about the caps that blow off or pop off on the SHO throttle body? Everyone says it is normal and/or they had it happen to them.
