2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for the 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid typically include oxygen sensor faults, catalytic converter efficiency codes, EV battery management warnings, and misfire or fuel trim codes. In Mesa, drivers often see P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0130 series (oxygen sensor), and hybrid system alerts that require hybrid-specific expertise. Ignoring these codes can lead to progressively higher repair costs: a faulty oxygen sensor can increase fuel usage and cause catalytic damage if unaddressed, while catalytic converter replacement is significantly more expensive than timely sensor repair. Hybrid battery-related warnings, if neglected, may lead to reduced electric-assist performance and costly module repairs later. Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa offers clear cost estimates, factory-trained technicians, and OEM parts to correct issues the first time—delivering both immediate relief and longer-term value. We encourage customers to take advantage of service financing to manage repair costs and to check our service specials for additional savings.
