Tfossa Report post Posted September 27, 2020 Hi, anyone noticing a high incidence of corrosion on 2010 FFH on the lower frame in front of the rear wheel wells as well as the rearward exhaust shield fasteners? Both my frame sides are rusting and I just had to fix the heat shield. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edward Report post Posted November 6, 2020 Yes, on the passenger side lower frame (rocker arm?) in front of rear wheel well, the paint there is bubbling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got an estimate for this 'rocker panel' repair at $1,700 and does not include a warranty as its likely to return. Sad, its such an otherwise good car.

FFHinVA Report post Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) There is a lot of discussion on the FordFusionForum dot com about this same issue. See the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion>Rust Database. I posted pics using my same user name. There are also youtube videos. It's pretty bad on a lot of cars. I think it's the air deflector causing the issue. I removed it (the air deflector), cleaned it out as much as possible, re-painted it, and I also injected Liquid Film (details on other post). The longer you wait, the worse it gets. Edited June 5, 2021 by FFHinVA typos; "dam" to "deflector" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
