I love the fusion but after 1 year of ownership and only 7k mile on the odo, the car I paid 32k for is only worth 16k. Truly, fords don't hold their value. Now, 2 years old, not even the dealer wants the car for trade. I was told to go to carmaxx. Never buy another ford. Worse than not holding their values, you have to give them away

I have the 2006 Ford Fusion with the titanium package. I actually love the interior, but my first gripe is that for some reason it was exceptionally hard to find a car without a black interior. In fact, there were only two interior color choices. Black and creme/off-white. This is crazy. It's hotter than Hades here in the summer in the Midwest, so black interior cars are terrible, especially those with sunroofs. What happened to grey, blue, or beige interiors? Pretty much anything other than boring black is an improvement, but nobody seems to be offering those anymore unless you custom order a luxury car. The second gripe is the gearing in standard drive mode. It's terrible. Slow to shift, slow to accelerate. In general, it's soulless. It's much better in "Sport" mode. They should have made this the standard, but I bet it doesn't meet their mileage goals. I often shift into Sport to get off the line, and then once I'm up-to-speed, move back to Drive. They could have easily done this by default if they'd programmed the shift points on the auto transmission better, but at least you can get around it. Other people complain about the Sync2 touchscreen interface. Personally, I find it to be much superior to their newer Sync3 with the only exception being that Sync3 has Apple CarPlay ability being newer system. The four-quadrant color-coded layout is very easy to use, and frankly for the most part, the system just works, unlike many, many others I've used. The AC controls leave a bit to be desired, but they aren't terrible. The one real drawback is that there are no physical buttons for switching which vent the air comes out of. That's all done on the touchscreen, buried behind at least one level of interface. Other than that, they pretty much work even if the foot vents make more noise than actual air flow. Styling is great. Thank god they started taking come cues from the team at Aston Martin while they owned them. This car doesn't look boring like the Chevy, Dodge, Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Honda, etc. equivalents where they wouldn't know style if someone hit them upside the head with it. The front grill, nice swage lines down the side, and back end all look very nice, modern, aggressive, and sporty. This is about the best looking non-luxury sedan out there today. All in all, a very nice sedan and I've been perfectly pleased with mine for the four years I've owned it.

I got my 2016 Ford Fusion Titanium in April and I'm enjoying everything about it. I'm really impressed with the eco boost engine great acceleration. I have all the whistle and bells and still learning some of the sync system but a lot of fun. I love the 12 speaker surround sound radio, the heated & cooled seats. The only thing I don't like is the wind noise it interferes with the radio and conversations. There are to many things to mention them all. I traded in my 2009 MKZ which I really liked.

This car does it all. It even parks itself. After having a Camry and a Beamer I never thought a Fusion would be better. It is! The 2.0 has a much better response than the Camry and it rides just as good as the Beamer. It stickered at just over 36K but after some discounts I gave 32K including fee's and taxes. The fit and finish is superb and no orange peel. After purchasing I used it on a 9 hour road trip and after a long day driving I still felt relaxed. The Camry always made my back ache after 2 hours. I have put 11K on the odometer and can't find anything to complain about. Ford has shown me that they can build a car that deserves top ratings.
