Sorry to hear about your issues with the
Ford Fusion Hybrid
. The good news is that it’s a relatively easy fix. To charge a Ford Fusion Hybrid battery, start the car and let it run for 20 to 30 minutes. Afterward, drive around for an additional 15 minutes.
This should recharge the battery, provided it has no other issues. If this doesn’t work or the battery continues to fail, you can also use a battery charger.
The battery charger should connect to the battery fuse in the fuse box with the red cable. Attach the black cable to a piece of metal, and et this charge for one to two hours to get the battery back up to speed.
If you need to replace the battery, expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000. Because it’s rather expensive, you may want to save some cash by shopping around for car insurance with the
