2008 Ford Fusion consumer reviews

My uncle had a 2008 and he always had it in his garage . When he passed I got it and the dash in front around the passengers airbag the dash is peeling up and also peeled up around defrost.

Got the car used for 3,500 Engine with 100k miles, body with 130k. Runs perfectly, I have the 2.4l 4cyl, and it definitely gets me where I need to go. Speakers are amazing, and bluetooth features are the icing on the cake. Only downside is manual headlights.

I had a 2008 XLT, V6, AWD version. Traded it in for $2000. Had it since new. Pros: Nice interior, had every option, smooth ride, cheap to fix, and paint was fairly durable. Cons: Sluggish V6, noisy motor, poor MPG, uses excessive oil. Overall, liked the car and all the options. For the price, $30k, a Honda, Toyota, Suburu, or Hyundai would have been a better choice.

I inherited this car from a relative when it had a little less that 100k mikes. Now, it has about 170k miles. No major repairs needed yet. Just the normal wear and tear things have been needed, with the exception of excessive break wear. Have had many brake jobs. Because of the relatively high miles on the car, it uses about a quart of oil every 3000 miles. It doesn't "burn" any oil, it just uses it. I'm constantly checking the oil. Performance: Lacks power even with the V6 motor that mine has. Feels sluggish on acceleration. MPG has been okay, but not great, but that's to be expected with a V6. The interior is very nice and durable. I like the leather seats. Mine also has all wheel drive, so that's a plus for safety. Really nice freeway car, not so much a city car. Overall, very satisfied with the car.

Great car!! Very sharp and fun to drive! Only complaint is I have to manually turn on the lights lol. Handles great and it’s AWD which surprised me!

Eventually paid it off, many years of no car payments was fantastic until got hit and car was totaled. The air bags protected me from more severe injuries. Car served me well.

This For Fusion suprised me on how reliable and long it lasted. I got up to 220,000 before major repares were necessary. The car drove well, the seats were comfortable, the custom sound system was the best, and the trunk was giant especially when the seats folded down. The look was fun and edgy compared to toyotas and hondas. I really enjoyed feeling like not everyone had my car, even though I did see a few fusions even same color on the road. The upkeep was reasonable and most components were simple to replace on my own. The only negative was the plastic interior got heat waping and the door handle connection was very weak and boke. Had to fix it with a zip tie and washer.

This car has exceeded my expectations in so many ways. I've done oil changes every 5000 miles and a few tie rod ends, tires, and brakes replaced but other than that, that is it. I am approaching 300,000 miles, 283219 to be exact. Definitely worth buying another one.

the 2008 fusion is a nice car. Has plenty of power for passing and zooming in and out of traffic. It is a smooth ride and it is the perfect beginner car for our daughter. The mechanics on this car is far batter than the 2010 and newer. Not tranny problems at all. Even though the car style is nice, it isn't as sporty as the newer one, but I will take reliability over style any day!

This car was able to perform like I needed it too. It has great gas mileage and performed admirably. It was comfortable and handled the roads well from snow to rain and sunshine.
