Check Engine Light Flashing

The sight of a flashing check engine light on your 2020 Ford Fusion Plug-In Hybrid signals an urgent fault—often a misfire or a condition that could damage the catalytic converter. Flashing indicates that continued driving risks more extensive, costly repairs and potential safety concerns. At Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa in Mesa, AZ we recommend stopping driving when safe and having the vehicle evaluated immediately. Our service lane is equipped to perform a priority diagnostic to isolate ignition, fuel delivery, or hybrid-system anomalies. Because we use OEM parts and factory-calibrated procedures, repairs done here protect long-term performance and typically deliver lower total ownership cost compared with repeated, incomplete fixes.

2020 Ford Fusion Plug-In Hybrid Check Engine Light Codes

Common codes for the 2020 Ford Fusion Plug-In Hybrid include oxygen sensor faults (P0130–P0167 range), catalytic efficiency alerts, misfire codes (P0300–P0304), and hybrid battery or inverter-related entries unique to plug-in systems.

Miller Ford Mesa we translate codes into clear repair priorities, showing immediate costs and demonstrating long-term savings from OEM parts and certified labor.
