Used 2007 Ford Fusion SE 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl 6A) Consumer Reviews
Have it almost one year
I like the vehicle, but have had problems with a strange strong vibration when the car hits 50 - 55 mph. Had it back at the dealership several times. Other than that, I enjoy it, I drive approximately 80 miles a day 5 days a week and the drive is enjoyable minus the vibration. I used to have a Nissan Maxima, which lasted me 9 years and 250,000+ miles, hopefully the Ford Fusion will prove to be comparable. However, the Fusion is definitely a lot better in the snow than the Maxima!
great handling
This AWD model has the great handling I love in our Subaru. The engine is responsive enough for everyday driving. Some people complain it's underpowered but for the price and package it's a great value. If you want Mustang or Corvette speeds, go get one of them. This car handles a turn like a wide receiver - sure-footed and quick. Some people complain about road noise but I haven't found it objectionable. My son said the engine, when revved hard, sounds "like Lightning McQueen" (from the movie Cars). That's fine with me. The other feature I enjoy is spacious front and rear seating. I'm 6'4" and there's still room for a real person to sit behind me with no discomfort.
Decent value!
I brought my fusion used in December 2013 with 65000 miles for only 8500! It is fully loaded and was a steal at the time! In the 3 short years I've owned it I've put around 120,000 miles on it (used as a work car for a 2 hour commute) the car is extremely comfortable with lots of leg room.(I'm 6 foot 3) It has been a great car for the money! I've never put money in it besides normal maintenance like brakes tires and oil changes! I've absolutely loved this come but here in the last few months i have lost alot of power and the transmission has begun to act up. On hot days it has a lot of trouble shifting in and out of gears to the point where it will shift through 5 gears just to find one. I've considered getting it fixed but the fusions have lost all value in the last year. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a comfortable low cost to own car.

Very reliable and comfortable.
138k on my 2007 Fusion SE AWD V6, and it has never had a single issue. overall a very good car. My only complaint would be that mileage with the all wheel drive and v6 could be better. I average around 21.5, driving about 75% highway. Not terrible by any means, but a few mpg more would be nice.
In love
I bought my Fusion after test driving the 4 and 6 and the awd. I settled on the awd v6. It felt that it drove through bumps and didn't hop like I felt the fwd does. The v6 is almost too much for stop and go, and the brakes are super sticky. I'm not too fond of the tall back end. I'm 6'2" and have a hard time backing up. Also the drinks are right under your shifter or your arm. And the window is so tall I can't put my arm on it.
