    "There was a draw on the battery causing the battery to die if the car was not run at least every other day. Had to jump the battery many times. Ford dealership couldnt find the root cause. I found the keyless remote was the cause. Changed the key battery and problem solved."

    Anonymous, PA (2013 Ford Fusion SE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)

    "Car is a fusion hybrid. Despite a new starter battery, car will not start if not driven for a week--this undermines keyless entry and other electrical systems. Driver assistance alerts--tire pressure sensors etc. develop opens that constantly make them falsely report that the systems they monitor are not working when they are. Apart from this, when continuously driven the hybrid gas/battery system works well and gets good mileage."
