Battery keeps exploding

Asked by Rondad21 Feb 01, 2021 at 06:08 AM about the 2010 Ford Fusion SEL

Question type: General

What causes battery to keep exploding.  This is 4th time in
10 years that the battery exploded. I have paid thousands
of dollars to keep fixing the damage the acid does to cables
and brackets but no one can tell me why this keeps
happening. When you put key in ignition the dash and lights
starts flashing. horn and alarm goes off. My mechanic at
Ford is still puzzle on why. Does anyone have an answer.

I would try another mechanic. I would think the battery is being overcharged. Was the Car ever flood damaged?

No car was never flood damage. I purchased brand new and I know it not the battery because it has happened on different brands.
