acdii Report post Posted February 14, 2013 So, I'm the leader of the pack. You think I am the only one who has this problem? Guess again, I am just the one being the most vocal on it, and do you really blame me? A $36,000 car that is sold as a 47 MPG car that cant achieve it unless you REALLY hypermile it? It is not what I bought into! There are a few others on this board who are also having poor results like mine, it just so happens mine has been the only one to have fouled the spark plugs, probably because I have more miles on mine than they do. However, I also have video proof of what it takes to obtain 40 MPG in this car, and was TOLD by Ford this is how you get 47 MPG in this car. A few people have been lucky that their cars have not had problems like this. My rants and information I give here is in hopes others who DO have issues like mine will have whatever information I can give them from my troubles to hopefully lessen their grief! But if that is not appreciated, fine, I will just move on. But if someone asks if I would recommend the Fusion, in my heart I would have to say no, not because of the car, but because of Ford. The Fusion is a fine car, but I feel I have been bent over and shafted with a baseball bat and no lube. 1 MXGOLF reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
