I purchased this vehicle new in October of 2008. It has performed flawlessly for 158,000 miles. Oil changes and routine suspension maintenance, belts etc. This has been the best vehicle I have ever owned. Ford did a heck of a job with this vehicle. The American answer to the Accord/Camry in terms of reliability. Some minor creams as it is now higher mileage and driven in the rustbelt/great lakes region.

First off I love this car! The leather interior is very comfortable and soft. Seat warmers work great and the radio control with and without the sync system are easy to use. The ride of the car is fantastic. It's powerful yet nice and quiet on the inside. The engine can run a bit high on start up so allow some time for the car to warm up and settle down a bit. Gas mileage is ok, but I honestly expected a little more out of the car. The only bad thing I can say about this car is the 18" wheels. The wheels are extremely soft and trust me I have dented them already and not on a memorable pot hole either. The Goodyear tires have a soft sidewall and bubble pretty easily.

I have a 2009 Ford Fusion 4 cylinder and I've owned this car the last year and I've had nothing but good things to say out this car. I bought it last October with 200xxx miles. It now has 314xxx that's right I said 314,000 miles and it's still working like horse. The only things I had to do is replace the serpentine belt and get a wheel alignment other than that I haven't had to touch anything else. Just keep the oil changed and you'll be set like a arrow. Heat still blows hot and air is still ice cold.!! If and when I do get rid of this car it'll be 2011 all wheel drive but this car has shown be no signs of even thinking about giving up. I have nothing bad to say about this car other than the front and rear bumper sometimes coming apart on the sides. I would recommend this car to anyone young or old.! It's meant for everyone. One of the best cars Ford has made thus far that I've seen

This is my 8th car, 2nd new car and first American made car. Initially I was elated with my purchase and glad that I decided to buy American. I drive 100 miles round trip 5 days a week. The drive home in my roomy and comfortable Fusion was something I looked forward. And I only have to buy gas twice a week. Fast forward 10 months,I just had to get a new transmission and I am going online later to find a condenser. The condenser issue really could have happened to anyone,(so they say)a little rock bounced into it . It is just annoying that it happened 3 days after the transmission was replaced. Now everyday I dread the ride to and from work, wondering what will go wrong next
