Most reliable car I have ever owned

I purchased a used Ford Fusion Sport with a lot of options and under 15k miles. I'm a big guy, 6'3" and big-boned, with two younger children that require car seats. There is still some room behind me with the seat backed up all of the way. The features and smart key are a nice touch. I am used to a V-6 AWD vehicle, so it has taken some time getting used to the slower acceleration in normal or ECO mode. In Sport mode, the acceleration is good. I really like the looks of this car. It just stinks you have to go to the Sport or Limited model to get dark interiors, but I'll deal with it.

Recall for brake failure. Thanks I was hurt today

The car has had so many recalls. I spoke with Ford Motor about the last recall about the brakes. Never did get the second letter to have it repaired. Thanks Ford Motor Co I was involved in a accident due to the brakes failure

Great Car for 170,000 or until I paid it off.

Traveled many places with kids and even moved bunk beds through the trunk with help from the fully folding backseats. Kept my oil changed regularly. Then suddenly it wouldn't accelerate while I was coming home from the grocery store. Mechanics refuse to even fix it, claiming the transmission shouldn't have lasted that long and with no improvements to transmissions for the Ford Fusion I would be wasting time and money.

Most Reliable Car I've Owned

This car is great. It provides me with comfort, reliability, and low cost of ownership. It's the best car I've ever owned. Here's an article that made me a believer: https://pistonrepublic.com/users/svt_man/posts/what-does-it-take-for-a-2010-ford-fusion-to-hit-200-000-miles

Good value for the money

I wrecked my 2015 Regal AWD and needed something in a hurry to replace it. I split my time between the midwest & CO, so I needed AWD and enough power to cope with high altitude. I found this SEL with a V6 and AWD, and was well cared for. Although the engine has as much power as the Regal's 2.0T, it takes a lot of RPM to achieve it. Also, at high altitude, the 3.0 V6 takes a bigger hit in HP than the turbo did. I'm not a fan of the transmission. It shifts smoothly, but always at higher RPM than I'd like. Plus, it seems to be marginal in reliability, from what I see online. Aside from that, it's a good daily driver and is comfortable enough on long trips. Even at 115k miles, the body is not rattly, and I've not had any significant issues arise.

I bought this car new and aside from normal maintenance this car has been the most reliable car I've owned. Good gas mileage, good ride comfort. IT now has 115000 miles on it and it just keeps going. May never part with it.
