ford fusion sel
Source: Cars.com

..."Great car for the price. It was a replacement for a Ford Focus that was totalled in a head on collision.
The SEL has lots of features, nice finish. The downside is the engine,
The 4 cyl is a little underpowered for the car, however careful driving averages around 30 in town and 36 plus on the freeway, which is really better than the 2001 focus.
Also, care must be taken re. the front bumper dam which easily damaged in angle parking where there are higher curbs.."...

2011 Ford Fusion S
Source: Cars.com

...I will be traveling more in a sales position and needed a bigger, more comfortable car. I got the base S as that suited my needs. The seats are very comfortable which is what I need with the trips I will be making. The fuel economy has been excellent (30-33 mpg). I thought I would miss the options from the SE package but I don't. The car is comfortable and quiet. My Hyundai was great while I had it but the Fusion is a more comfortable, roomier and quiet car. I drive the car pretty easy so I don't notice the transmission jumping around like others do. It can be a little sluggish but I can't...

Big problem with manual transmission
Source: Edmunds

...The previous review I wrote about problems with the manual transmission have been resolved.
Ever since I got the car back from the dealer it drives fine.
They did not replace the entire transmission, but said that something in the transmission was not machined correctly at the plant and had a small lip on it, causing the shifting problem.
They replaced the part and so far, so good. Overall, great car for the money...

...I was a raised a die hard chevy boy. But as you get older and more mature you become a little more open minded when you get away from home and start to become your own person.
I am only 21 but i have had 3 GM cars and loved them all and i still do have a pontiac.
My wife needed a new car so we started looking and she said that she likes the fusions styling.
And i agreed i have liked the fusions since they have came out and the 2011's are awesome.
So i broke down and bought a loaded out SEL last weekend and so far i do not regret it we average 31 mpg mixed driving!
I...

Nice Car, Bad Interior Comfort
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: The styling reminds me of my old 2005 Toyota Camry SE-V6.
Cons: My knees hit the middle console, even when I move the seat back. It is hard to get comfortable. Will have to sell it to get a more comfortable ride. Overall: Good car. Bad comfort...

BAD TRANSMISSION ON 2006 FORD FUSION

...I puchased a brand new 2006 Ford Fusion because of reliability and currently have about 74,000 miles on it and the transmssion is going bad- it slips and knocks.
Talked to numerous mechanics and been given runaround! Will drive car until it dies but now I know why people are buying Toyota's and Honda's! BOBALU2...

Best Value / Buy American
Source: Cars.com

..."We were always a Ford family until my wife bought a 2008 Elantra - loved it, a great car.
But the new one came out and she "had to have it" but availability, shipping delays and lousey local dealers led us to look elsewhere.
Ford has impressive products and solid leases but SUPRIZE!
Chrysler beat them hands down with a more comfortable, more luxurious, more quiet and more tech user friendly sedan in the new 200.
The Limited model had EVERYTHING we wanted at the same MSRP as a similarly equipped Fusion - but when it came down to making a deal the larger nicer and newer...

America Rises Again
Source: Cars.com

..."We've owned Japanese cars and, by and large, they've been great.
But the Ford Fusion we own now has enabled us to proudly drive American again.
Our Fusion Hybrid looks beautiful, offers excellent performance for a roomy five-passenger sedan and gets up to 52 MPG on a trip.
It;s great buying gas only every month or so too. The car is larger and roomier than Japanese hybrids yet gets fantastic mileage and handles beautifully.
We live in Vermont and the car handles most capably in snow. This Ford is the best car we've ever owned. Ford leads the way."...

Fusion Avis rental
Source: Edmunds

...Just thought I put my two bits in. Just rented Ford Fusion from rental company for business.
car rides on rails and pick up is fast . Overall quality is there but interior design of dash needs some work.
Buttons for us baby boomers need to be legible and readable.
Also HVAC controls are confusing and near bottom of stack (hard to read and reach).
Dash is not impressive and tach and speedometer look like it belongs on a go-cart. Door sill not finished and cheap looking. Overall car rides great and has appeal...
