I bought this car new over six years ago and my overall experience has been fantastic. I hope to keep the car for at least another six years. Car cost $25K new and has good interior quality for that price point. The ride is comfortable and the handling is responsive. Maintenance has been minimal and the only repair so far has been due to mice chewing some wires (can't blame Ford for that). The mileage is approaching 100K and I think the rear struts are going bad because there is a rattling and an unusually stiff ride but I haven't yet had it checked out. My only real gripe with the car is that the "Sync" entertainment system that is supposed to interact with your phone doesn't work with my iPhone (or any of my Apple devices) for anything other than Bluetooth when the system was designed by Microsoft to do much more. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and could only hope that all of my car purchases work out as well as the Fusion has so far.

Purchased a 2012 Fusion SEL V6 about a month ago so far not impressed with the reliability, has been to the dealer twice for two different problems in two thousand miles. Transmission had to be flashed because the transmission had very hard shifts, now the EGR valve is not working correctly causing the car to shutter and Ford does not know how to fix it. This has been the first Ford i've ever owed I wish I would have looked at other manufacture's I picked this car for the high marks consumer reports gave it.

Bought the 2012 Ford Fusion SEL FWD 3.0L V6 certified pre-owned, have been driving it a little over a month now. Previous vehicle was a '98 Dakota pickup, so yes lol, quite a difference. I love the driving experience.....handles great, nice acceleration when the higher revs achieved, especially using the manual automatic mode. Comfortable, quiet, pleasant leather interior, enjoyable sound system. I look forward to driving it each day. A few complaints, for no vehicle is perfect. The transmission can shift awkwardly at times, especially in mid-RPMs. Rear visibility takes getting used to, and windshield rear-view mirror gets in the way when looking right. Glad i got the car......
Great Car....Still hanging in 2024

I have the 3.0L V6 SEL. The car has ~125,000 miles and is still kicking. Normal maintenance cycle nothing extraordinary but it still drives great and has taught all 3 kids how to drive. Interior still in great shape, "leather" has zero cracks, dashboard zero cracks and still looks new. Only the centerstack looks dated because it has no large display screen. I wish Ford had kept making midsize cars, this has been a great vehicle.

This is a great car. 3l 6 cyl churns out over 200 horses, and still gets 25 mpg. UPDATE: X years later 120K miles, still looks and runs new. Sure minor scratches and some very minor parking lot door dings. Very sound car. Reliable for a 3 drive or a 3k drive. Not having to technology is not a bad thing. Too many cars can get hijacked electronically.
