Transmission at a glance
Year-specific notes
- 2016 — 1.6L EcoBoost was replaced by the 1.5L EcoBoost for 2016.
How to confirm your transmission
- The Safety Compliance label on the driver door jamb lists the transmission code; a VIN decode confirms the 6F35 and its calibration.
- Fusion 2.0L EcoBoost, 2.7L Sport and hybrid models are excluded here, so engine confirmation comes first.
- The ID tag on the transaxle case gives the build level we use when sourcing hard parts.
Common Ford 6F35 failure areas in the Fusion
Clutch wear or pressure-control problems; on the 2013–2020 Fusion we check adaptive data and fluid condition first.
Valve-body wear, a sticking solenoid or low fluid are the common causes.
Usually torque converter clutch related; converter slip data confirms it.
Diagnostic considerations
- Scan PCM/TCM codes and review shift solenoid and pressure data.
- Check fluid level through the check plug at operating temperature — there is no conventional dipstick.
- Road test with live clutch and converter slip data.
Repair or rebuild?
Software, solenoid and valve-body issues can often be repaired. If clutches are worn or there is metal in the pan, a rebuild is the reliable fix.

Should I repair or rebuild the 6F35 in my Ford Fusion?
It depends on what failed. Solenoid, valve body and software faults can often be repaired; burnt clutches or metal in the pan usually mean a rebuild. We diagnose first and explain the options.
