I have a 2015 Fusion. Over the past few weeks the blower from the hvac has become intermittent in operation and now it does not work at all. High setting, low setting... no air flow at all. I remember years ago on my bmw there was a resistor pack that went bad that controlled the blower motor speed. I assume it's this or the motor itself. Does anybody know the general location of the resistor pack? Is it next to the motor housing? Thanks

So I am a bit confused on what possibly could happened in my 2015 20k mile FFH. The roads in Colorado are not great, but I have not hit any large pothole or anything. I wake up one morning to start my daily commute to work on the toll road (ave speed 75-80mph). Feels like the car is drifting from side to side a bit.... ok no big deal, thought it was possibly a windy day. Day 2, Day 3 and so on; the same loose feeling and seems a bit worse. Day 4, 5, 6 etc... feels like maybe one corner (left) of the car is dipping lower when going over the humps on the highway....Almost like the shock is not responding well to the impact. I parked the car and jacked the front up to observe anything that looked loose or possibly a blown shock / broken spring, no issues to be found. It's so strange because it just randomly appeared and it's very obvious i'm fighting with the car to keep it strait; takes a bit more concentration. Steering wheel center is a bit off to the left I noticed while driving. Going to the dealer this coming Monday to have them check it out. Hoping something simple. Let me know what you guys think or if you encountered a similar problem? I'll provide an update soon on the cause. Pictures attached - They sure don't lie, there is a clearance difference noticed from wheel to fender lip when comparing left to right. The car is completely on level flat ground. I just don't know what side is the correct factory height.... really upsets me to see that.

Ahh good to know all of this. This is my first Hybrid so I think it's more like "me" breaking into how the car normally functions...haha. The overall comfort and great mpg by far outweigh the slight jump that is felt on occasions :)

Good to know this. Thanks guys.... It's not really a bothersome thing to me and good to know others experience similar things. It runs great otherwise and really like the mpg I'm pulling with this car.

Hi all, I do apologize if this has been a recent discussed question. I have a 2015 FFH. I am at about 5k miles. On occasions I've noticed somewhat abrupt transitions between the switching from gas to electric. For example, I start off in full electric mode from a stand still with light to moderate pressure on the pedal and you can feel a abrupt transition (almost like a small jump) to full gas mode along with an obvious audible change in engine speed (more like a on / off switch) Other times it's a seamless transition not felt at all... or the Gas / EV are working together in unison providing good balanced power. Is this the designed operation? What have you guys observed? Break in period still? Thanks, Chris

Freaking LG Refrigerators. Sorry to hear; you are not the only one with these crap compressors that seem to have a life of 2 years max. I think recently LG went with a different compressor manufacture... could be wrong. Good luck and let us know how it worked out.

Thanks Steve, Ooo those Lexus hybrids are pretty nice! It would not be white by chance, would it? Chris

Hi all, I'm Chris from Colorado checking in with my 2015 Fusion Hybird. Just picked it up this past Saturday. I traded both my Audi's for it as my new job includes a longer commute and thought this was a good choice after reading about a years worth of reviews. The wife drives a 2015 Escape and she really enjoys that too. Just wanted to drop in and introduce myself. Picture attached below :)
