Owner of an 06 SEL V6 Fusion loaded with every option. I have now reached about 27,000 trouble free miles. This car is solid, reliable and a very good value. Spent thousands less for a comparable Accord/Camry. Think out of the box.... |

Hi all, I have owned two Fords in the past ('97 Escort, '01 ZX2) and two Camrys ('00, '03), all of which have essentially been completely trouble-free. The Camrys have had excellent rides, but the thigh support and awkward steering wheel placement always left me very uncomfortable, especially on long drives. I test drove a number of cars on the market, including the Accord and Altima, and came back to the Fusion, as it has a ride very comparable to the Camry, and the interior is MUCH better than the Camry's....much more comfortable. I bought an SEL V6 with Moon & Tunes and leather interior. I now have 1,200 miles on it, and the car has not developed any rattles or squeaks, and has been very pleasurable to drive. I must say that for the cost, I am not sure why there isn't more chatter about the Fusion vs. the Accord and Camry.....Ford makes extremely reliable vehicles, and they are exceptional values compared to the imports. I still own my '03 Camry (wife's car now), but I anticipate replacing it with a Fusion down the road. I will note that the leather seat bolstering is very weak and will smoosh to nothingness after a few weeks. Luckily, my dealership (Tom Wood Ford in Indianapolis) provides EXCEPTIONAL customer service and had their seat guy fix this under warranty...essentially, the seats are now better than new. Also, the moonroof will take away a good 2 - 3 inches of headroom, and the way the roof liner is connected is not helping matters, since it uses velcro that does not firmly attach. The dealer noted this was common to all Fusions with moonroofs and there is no fix..... Overall, I would not hesitate to replace this car with another Fusion if something happened to it. This is truly a Camry-killer...... |

I wonder who may have had this problem. I had the liscense plate light system replaced last year. They seem to over heat. I don't think I'm the only one. A few weeks back the power lock on the front passenger side failed. You couldn't lock the door any way you tried. If you did the key fob & locked them, it still didn't work. The alarm would go off, however if you opened the front passenger door. Both issues were fixed in short time by the dealer under warranty. I DO consider these to be very minor issues compared to the overall satisfaction. I still hope for the '09 year they drop in the 3.5 V6. Might make me consider trading next year. |

Hi I have a '08 Fusion. I've noticed that the starter seems to be automatic. I just have to turn and hold the key at start for a instant and release it and it finishes cranking itself. I don't recall the dealer mentioning that! Fred
