Comfortable but fails in performance

Bought 2015 with under 80k miles because it looked nice and seemed a good car. Has had 2 recalls on air bag and ABS system. Had transmission problems at less than 100k mi. Powersteering pump had issues and leaving. Dashboard peeling away from passenger air bag area. Seats are part faux leather and are cracking. Driver seat is electric and will no longer move backward. Doesn't accelerate smoothly and has louder than expected engine. I used to love this car but now with all the issues it has and keeps having I will not recommend nor buy another one again. Now car is having steering issues. I'm debating going back to a Nissan Altima which I replaced with this car. Other than these issues I like the style of the car and it is pretty comfortable and fits our current family needs. Decent mpg on highway. In town it sucks.

Best Vehicle I have ever Owned and Driven

Vehicle got extremely great fuel mileage in the 4 cylinder yet still had plenty of power. It being a fully loaded SEL making it have all the comforts and extremities needed for one to enjoy the ride.

Absolutely adore this car...so comfortable!

I feel secure driving this car and the spacious interior gives a lot of leg room for road trips. My family enjoys the backseats too. I like the pick up on the highway and it is a wonderful car to park. An excellent car from bumper to bumper!

most dangerous car i ever drove

just bought a 2008 ford fusion . everything looked great run great . 2 days later a car stopped quick in front of me i hit the brakes . a minute later my brake pedal is soft . i have hardly any brakes and it will cost a lot to fix it . everyone says the ABS pump is gone and this is a common thing for this car . why isn't there a recall on this part before someone dies .

Most reliable car I ever owned

I loved this car! Great fit, great ride, nice looking, reliable. The only reason I don?t have it any longer, even at 10 years old, is because my daughter needed a car and I gave it to her!

Clean car, Fax Report Provided

This is a great used vehicle for the price I paid. It runs very well with a smooth ride with little outside noise. All instrumentation works satisfactory. No unexpected surprises outside of what sales associate told me.
