This is the third Ford Fusion that I've owned, out of trade-ins and ups. I wouldn't have purchased another if it weren't for the Sport. I loved my 15 Titanium, best car I ever drove, but this car knocked my socks off when I test-drove it. It is everything I love about the Titanium with the horse power of a Mustang. We'll hit the good stuff first. The car looks incredible, people always ask, "Is that a Fusion?" The mesh grille, LED lights, quad tip exhaust, and rims set this car apart from the other trim models. Really, this is a different car entirely from the other trims. The power is amazing, hitting the pedal results in some serious fun for a 4 door sedan. In car entertainment and technology is very streamlined, with the exception of the ever-behind-the-times navigation system. I use Apple CarPlay and let my phone do the navigating when necessary. I also find the bluetooth pairing to be cumbersome and sometimes unreliable, so I just don't use it. The seats are comfortable enough for a 4+ hour drive. Now the not-so-good stuff, I don't say bad because I haven't found anything bad about this car yet. The transmission is weird in its shift points, mainly between 2nd and 3rd. The steering doesn't inspire, but it gets the job done. Brakes could use a minor upgrade due to the weight of the car, especially the rears. Overall, this is the best car I've ever owned, so much so that I have put a good deal of money on mods improving the look and performance of it even more. I don't normally "invest" in a car, but I love this little monster!

I got rid of a fully loaded 2007 Passat for a 2017 Fusion Titanium. After a week of driving the car started hesitating and shifting roughly. Now it has some weird computer problem where a few times a week the car freaks out and the entire sync 3 infotainment system stops working and AC compressor shuts off. I’ve been to the dealer they say drop it off and we’ll get back to you within 2 weeks but no loaner car until after the 2 week period. I can’t go 2 weeks without a car so I’m left disconnecting the battery overnight every time this happens. I’m getting rid of this car and never buying another Ford again. At least with a Volkswagen I would have a loaner car even for simple oil changes.

Bought this car new from Ken Wilson Ford in Canton, NC just outside Asheville. Have had it back 3 times for the window not rolling up. Now there is a vibration, and a tire sensor is not working. Took it to the dealership and it has a wheel bearing out, a tire pressure sensor is out and... are you ready? 4 WARPED WHEELS, 4 WARPED WHEELS. They called and asked if I had hit something. When I said no, they said they didn't think i had because they went over the body to look for damage. Now they say my wheel and tire coverage won't cover it. Said its cosmetic because the wheels will hold air. Ford sold me a defective vehicle. THEY should fix it, not my wheel and tire protection. Was told it had features it didn't. Was not given paperwork from the sale because they needed title for my trade in. But they say they gave it to me. They put me through hell trying to collect documentation for rebates. Rold me to go to the courthouse in search of a document that doesn't exists. I don't know what is worse, the car or the dealership.

This car is ahead of it's time with modern features such as the rotary dial gear shift control, cooled seats and sleek dash design. This car has a large trunk and can hold a lot with the seats folded down. It is fun to drive and has plenty of power to speed up for passing and merging . The connectivity allows for the phone to interact in multaple ways. The screen layout surpasses many other brands in ease of use. This car sets the bar for future purchases. The fusion does not disappoint. I would select the titanium again in a heart beat.

2017 Ford Fusion SE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

I am pleased with the car for the money paid. The styling is really good, the 2.5 liter engine is not very powerful when you are first taking off but once you are up to speed it has plenty of power. Mine has the SYNC3 system added which is nice having the larger back up camera. Both front seats are power adjustable standard on SE models which you don't see in competitor's cars in this trim level. Very smooth and quiet ride, be careful on the freeway because you'll be doing 90 before you know it! You don't really hear any engine or wind noise so it doesn't really feel like you are going that fast. MPG could be a little better, but then again I paid a good bit less for this car than say a Camry so I am ok with what I'm getting. Trunk is very large and can hold a lot of cargo. A very nice car all in all.
