This car has put the word fun back into driving especially for a family mid-size sedan. I love the way it handles. It has great pick and go. I normally lease cars and have leased 8 different cars (both domestic and foreign) over the last 12 years and this is by far the best vehicle I have driven in the mid-size category. Ford has made a great mid-size car and it's about time. I purchased this vehicle and plan on keeping it.

Bought this car at 68K now it has 90k and I’ve had to replace both tie rods, valve gasket cover, ECM, solenoid actuator. Gas mileage all of a sudden dropped. Engine check light comes on repeatedly for electrical issues due to faulty ECM. The ride is smooth, the tire size is great and with right brand and type you will do fine in wet conditions and snow. Seems like it can’t get out of its own way with the 4 cylinder model. Do consistent oil changes and brakes etc and that was it for a while. But recently the car is just going down the drain and I’m trading it in before a bunch of work is needed that I was hoping not to deal with for this car looking at the reviews 2 years ago. It’s a Ford so what you buy is what you get. They’ve had one recall after another, scared with the airbag for my family and do you really trust it when it’s replaced? A car that will last awhile if you don’t mind shelling out money for electrical maintenance.

I traded in a 2006 Honda Accord EX on a 2009 Ford Fusion SE with Sport Package. The Fusion handles better than the Accord, has just as much power, and the build quality is just as good if not better than the Accord. In addition, the car is fun to drive. For the price you cannot beat the Fusion.

I've owned my Fusion for over a month now and have 1,200 miles on it. Ride is nice and has a very responsive steering system. The trunk is large and the gas mileage has been decent @ 25mpg. The V6 has good power and the transmission shifts smoothly. The headrests are not comfortable and need to be redesigned, hopefully they got it right on the 2010 model. Overall, I am very happy with it and we chose it over the Camry, Accord and Sonata. It was a tough decision but so far so good.

My Fusion has been a great car for the last year. I researched several cars in the same class and concluded that for the money, I was getting the most options for less money. It really does have all the bells and whistles that a luxury car should have. It looks very sporty and drives fantastic. It's spacious feeling without feeling too big for most parking spots. A little disappointed with the poor gas mileage for the V6, but the power upgrade is worth it.
