Hi all, I have a 2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid with about 91,000 miles.

Over the past month, my check engine light has come on twice. The first time it stayed on for around 3 days and then disappeared on its own. A few weeks later, it came back and again stayed on for about 3 days before going away.

I scanned it while the light was on and the only code was P013A. The car has been driving normally with no noticeable issues.

Has anyone with a Fusion Hybrid experienced this intermittent P013A code? What ended up being the cause, and did you have to replace anything?

Also, I'm at ~90k miles and, as far as I know, the transmission fluid has never been changed. Would you recommend changing the eCVT transmission fluid now? Should I just do a drain-and-fill and avoid a flush?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I have a 2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid with 90,400 miles. My check engine light came on (solid, not flashing).

I scanned it and got:

Code: P013A

No other codes.

The car:

Drives completely normal.

No rough idle, misfires, loss of power, or noticeable drop in fuel economy.

I checked the freeze frame and live data:

Coolant temp: 79°C

RPM: 1131

Speed when code set: 104 km/h (65 mph)

STFT: 0%

LTFT: -3.1%

O2 Bank 1 Sensor 2 voltage: around 0.425 V

Has anyone had this code on a Fusion Hybrid?

Was it just the downstream O2 sensor (Bank 1 Sensor 2), or did it end up being wiring, an exhaust leak, or the catalytic converter?

Would you continue driving it until I can get it repaired?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm considering renting at Lerner Oxford Square at White Flint in North Bethesda and wanted to hear from current or recent residents.

A few questions:

• How has your overall experience been?
• Is the community safe, especially at night?
• How responsive is the maintenance team?
• Are there any recurring issues (noise, pests, parking, management, etc.)?
• Is there a good sense of community? Are there many young professionals or Indian families living there?
• Would you recommend it over other garden-style apartments in the North Bethesda/Rockville area?

For context, we are a couple, one got job in Gaithersburg and the other works in Tysons, so we're looking for a safe, quiet, garden-style community with a reasonable commute for both of us.

Thanks in advance for any insights!
