  1. Align,net was checked after the accident. Starts are mild, I try to get it up to 10-15 (or more) on electric before it switches to ICE. I think they just hooked it up to their computer. I might pull the plugs this week to check them out. Thanks!
  2. Bringing this thread back... I took the car to the dealer to get an oil change, and have them give it a look over to see why my mileage is not great. They said nothing was wrong with the car. First tank after oil change i was only able to get 31mpg (tire pressures are 2lbs over recommended). I drive the same route week after week. A/C is usually always on, and i rarely ever get over 65mph due to southern california traffic. Is there something else on the car that could be causing the problem that i could check? Spark Plugs? Sensors? Does the air filter have much of an affect? I'm thinking about getting rid of this car. I am open to suggestions. Thanks for your help.
  3. its on all stations. It will show up if i turn off HD radio. But once i turn on HD radio, i loose all description on the instrument cluster. (it shows on the main display no matter what).
  4. 2014 Fusion hybrid titanium... When i select entertainment from the dash cluster, i like to see the name of the artist on the dash, rather than on the center display. I had a few issues a while back that prevented my HD radio from working, but i was able to get the song information on the dash cluster. Since that issue was fixed (software update), i no longer get any information on the dash cluster. Is there a setting to turn this on? All it shows me is the station (99.1 for example) and ROCK, or Country. But no artist information. Is it possible to turn this back on for radio use. ( i do not use Sirius/XM) Thanks,
  5. In CA, gas wont pump until the nozzle is inserted, then (sort of) latched. meaning you insert, then push down. The pumps out here have a Vapor Recovery hood on them. If the hood isn't engaged then you cant pump gas. My old car (without the capless filler) had no issues. My wife's car with capless has no issues. I physically have to hold the filler in the capless system the entire time i am filling.
  6. I only use fill-up to measure mileage (the dash has always been 3-5mpg off). tire pressures are right where they should be. Filler cap has never worked right. I always have to hold the filler as the capless filler does not like to work with the pumps here in California (i wish i could have the old screw on cap...) I will check to see if an alignment was done, it drives straight, but i know it could still be messed up.
  7. I was recently hit from behind, and there was about 6k in damage. The body shop I took it to said that there was no issue with anything mechanical. However, 2 tanks of gas since the repair i am struggling to maintain 35mpg. I am slightly concerned that there is some additional damage that is affecting my mileage that was missed. Has anyone ever experienced this, or does anyone know what could be the culprit? I realize that driving habits could also be to blame, but not much if anything has changed. Morning commute is 15miles (6am, so there is not much traffic, and 5pm in the carpool lane, so once again not much traffic) I set the eco cruise between 67-69. Thanks for any tips. 2014 FFH
