I’m sorry to hear that you’re having car troubles - hopefully, it didn’t ruin the beach day.
If your Ford Fusion is having trouble accelerating and the wrench light has come on, you’re likely dealing with a throttle body issue. The throttle body may need to be replaced.
You could also be dealing with an issue with your fuel injectors or spark plugs. Depending on the issue, you could get help from your Ford warranty if you have one. You should call up your dealership or check your paperwork to double-check.
In the meantime, take your car to a mechanic and have the issue properly diagnosed and repaired. And while you wait, check out the
