The 2008 Ford Fusion's oil light may turn on when the car is idle due to various reasons, with a common cause being inadequate engine oil. When the oil pressure sensor senses low pressure, it triggers the light. It's important to regularly check the oil level and top up if it's below the normal range on the dipstick. If you find yourself frequently adding oil to keep it at the right level, it's recommended to have the vehicle inspected for leaks and get them fixed. Another possible reason for the light to come on is a faulty oil pressure sensor, which can give a false low oil indication to the vehicle's computer system.

It's probably because there isn't sufficient oil in the reservoir. If the oil level looks good, then the engine may not be getting enough oil pressure.
