The wrench warning light comes on in my 2010 ford fusion most of the time it is after it has been driven for awhile then shut off and restarted soon after but yesterday it happened as I was driving the car loses power will only go about 35 MPH no matter how far you push the accelerator when trying to ascend a steep hill it would only go 10 miles per hour.
