  1. Okay, so the post-Katrina streets of New Orleans are continuous potholes and two front tires had to be replaced after front end went out of alignment. Checked balance and mounted older tires on front but felt a vibe in the steering wheel. After 2 weeks, had tires switched with new tires on front. Very reputable tire dealer. I'm still feeling the vibration in the steering wheel on smooth interstate at 75 mph. If tire place did balance tires properly, is there another front-end part that might be causing this? Have 24,000 miles and 13 months on the Fusion. Thanks in advance for any advice. Dean
  2. When my wife used my Fusion today she left the lights on, and contrary to published statements, my battery went dead. Brought her Civic to her, jumped Fusion, headed home. Screen displayed, "No Phone" when phone icon depressed; and "No Aux" when pressing that button; also, no sync voice. "Chat" at syncmyride.com advised bring car to dealer. Found a fix on that community that worked. Remove "SYNC" fuse, wait 10 seconds, replace. Has anyone removed and replaced fuses from the Fusion panel? Whatever engineer decided on that location must have had it in for Fusion owners. With all the brilliant engineering that went into the Fusion, how could the designers possibly decided on that nearly inaccessible location?
  3. Leaving the lights on in my 2010 Fusion definitely drains the battery. Leaving the car out at night when the temp goes below 29 degrees F, renders car in need of a jump start.
  4. The Serius sound quality in my 2010 Fusion is outstanding and I really love the selections. At the end of 6 months, Serius offerred 3 months for the price of 1. Since then they sent me some other offer that is better than 12 months for the price of 10...just haven't read it yet. If you have noticed, the folks in the music publishing business are demanding more and more every day in hundreds of lawsuits so I don't think Serius is really making a killing. Pink Floyd just settled a suit today with their label over internet downloads.
  5. In my experience, I gotta blame poor milage on the weather when all other factors are equal. Wind, rain, and puddles this past week or so has pulled my average down about 3 mpg.
