Hello All!
My wife and I just purchased a Fusion Titanium Hybrid from Enterprise (2019). We chose to give up our 2005 Passat for reasons.
It is a good looking car that does offer plenty of space (except for the trunk), and will provide a lot of safety features not currently available. In a snap comparison, the Fusion feels good, but not quite as tight or connected to the road as the Passat. But that doesn't bother my wife as much as me, and it'll be her daily driver. It is nice and quiet, especially at a stop since it is a hybrid. She was reading the user manual last night telling me about a lot of the features. I admit, as she was saying some of the items, they sound great and will allow the driver to focus on the road, but internally, all I could think of is "another electronic feature likely to fail that will be expensive to diagnose and repair." Either way, this is the way society is moving.
I've scanned over the forum, and am looking forward to being a member. I've found a couple of the introductory stickies by HybridBear and GrySql. Thank you for those. We'll be going through these threads and links throughout the next few evenings.
One question - Is there a thread of "common issues" to the Fusion with links to walkthroughs for fixing these issues (although being a hybrid, I'm considering hanging up some of the tools for this car). I didn't find a specific one when I did a search, but did find the TCB forum insightful as a start point.
