2010 Ford Fusion with 99,000 when Purchased

Purchased this car from dealer used with 99,000 miles on and purchased the extended warranty. Ran great up until around 130k miles and then started having acceleration issues and when we took it to the dealer they couldn't identify the problem. Drove it a couple thousand more miles and then maintenance light came on and the dealer took a look said it was loose hose connected to the transmission. Problem was fixed and then a few weeks later it started making another noise while accelerating and now the dealer says that three of the engine blocks need to be replaced which isn't covered by the warranty. Not impressed with the new Ford models and their attempt to reinvent the brand.

This 2010 ford fusion is an absolutely beautiful car. Most people don't know where the transmission problems come from. There is a plug on the bottom of the transmission if you change it like the owners manual say's [engine oil every 5,000 km trans every 30,000 km is what I do ]Don't be mad at the car or the builder cause you bought a car that someone didn't do the proper maintenance on. This car for the price and for what you get is a awesome car. If your looking at buying a used one I recommend you change the trans oil when you get it and again 10,000 km after then 30,000 km there after. when you drain it only 5L comes out not the 11L it holds the reason for doing it 2 times so fast

Bought mine new and was impressed with build quality from the start. It's just an SE with sunroof and spoiler as options. On my third set of tires and just replaced the serpentine belt. My driving is 75% highway. Change oil myself and that's about all the maintenance it has required, until recently just replaced the fuel injector throttle body at a Ford dealership. The ride is a little choppy but overall very easy to drive and park. I hope to get another 100K out her!

When I owned this car, I was making minimum wage and mostly driving in the city. I got it used with 10,000 or 12,000 miles from Enterprise Car Sales (yes, the same company you can rent from). This car was beyond reliable and easy on the wallet as far as gas goes. I was a little reckless and it still got 25+ MPG. It ran it's way to 100,000 on 3 cylinders and a bad 02 sensor, too! This car may not be fancy, but it's perfect for someone who just needs a commuter car or for new drivers.

A fine car

Great steering for road feel and handling. Car is really fine to drive. When we bought it, summer 2009, we also drove Accord and Camry, and after 84,000 miles we have no regrets that we picked the Fusion. Also at 73 mph on a level interstate we get 31-32 mpg. No reason to regret our choice of the 4 cyl engine either. For some reason we decided to sell it and buy a Tesla, but the Fusion remains a really outstanding car. I've been driving since 1960, and know good cars from bad. I hope we are not making a mistake by selling it. The one caution if you buy used: check the front strut towers for structural rust.
