Ford Fusion Hybrid Blowby???

Topic starter

I currently have a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan, 245k miles. 3.3

My friend offered to trade my caravan for this 2012 ford fusion hybrid that has 100k miles

Seems to drive fine but when took oil cap off when at idle, lots of pressure comes out. No smoke or oil. No discolored fumes or anything. Just clear pressure, enough to make oil cap go flying. 

Is this normal on these?

Also if no hybrid lights are on does it mean hybrid batt is fine?

nobody takes a high mileage caravan for anything good

Did you do anything to honk off your friend? Something would have to be horribly wrong with that Fusion to make an 18-year-old high-mileage Caravan look like a better choice.

At a minimum, since the Fusion is 13 years old the prospect of needing a new hybrid battery in the near future ($$$$) is very likely, let alone any other issues it may have. You would need a hybrid expert to go over that thing with a fine-toothed comb to determine its true condition.
