I think that it is the outermost sensors on the side of the bumper that pick this up. When it happens the rear alert goes off first, then the front, until the car passes me. Once in a while it will also trigger the Vehicle Coming from Left alert in the info screen as well.

No, has nothing to do with the car in front of me, it is sensing the cars in the adjacent lane as they creep past me. I would never be so close to the care in front of me.

I had only two minor issues: The DRLs on US made Fusions are not enabled. I remedied this rather simply, by simply having the dealer program them to be on. The second issue is that in heavy traffic the parking aid sensors will sometimes activate, then I get the beep beep beep every few seconds as if I am trying to park. Although driving in traffic in the DC area feels like parking, I am actually just commuting. I am not sure how Ford might fix this as to the car bumper to bumper traffic seems a lot like a parking scenario.

I received my check yesterday via Fedex. I was rather surprised as I was aware that they had to re-state the MPG, but not that Ford was going to issue checks to owners. This was a rather pleasant surprise to me as I am very pleased with the economy of the car even with the re-stated mileage. This is still better the the MPGs on the Camry Hybrid that I traded in, and this car has been much more enjoyable and problem free. Toyota certainly did not issue me any sort of credit even though I owned that car for year and never got anywhere close to the MPG score that they rated that care at (41), I achieved more like 35 MPG on a very lucky tankful in optimal conditions. I never would have complained, but if they want to send me $775, I will gladly accept it.
