The Ford Fusion requires 5.7 quarts of transmission fluid. It is recommended to change the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. Not replacing the fluid can lead to noisy transmission and a malfunctioning torque converter, which is a crucial component of the vehicle. Problems with the transmission are common and must be addressed promptly, such as fixing any leaks or resolving delayed shifts. Issues like slipping, shuddering, hard shifts, jerking, and stuck gears may arise if the transmission is not properly maintained.

As far as I know, the filter cannot be accessed without taking apart the case. Instead of taking risks with potential failures and costs, it is better to proactively replace the filter to prevent it from getting blocked, which could lead to damaging the pump and ruining the transmission.
