110k miles of trouble free driving

I purchased this 2013 Fusion titanium in July 2014 when it had 15,000 miles on it. Now in April 2016 it has 110,000 miles. Other than routine oil changes, tires, and a couple of minor dealer recalls the car has been perfect. Still on the original brake pads all other wear parts. Highly recommended. It is still quiet, solid, and drives perfectly. I drive about 5,000 miles per month for my work sales job, and average over 30 miles a gallon every tankful.

2013 AWD Ford Fusion Titanium

Overall this is a very reliable car. It performs well in all kinds of conditions. Once you figure out the car's quirks, they are not that bad. I am a sales rep and drive about 55,000 miles per year. I have had my car since June 2013 and it has over 80,000 miles. It has the original brakes. The original tires needed to be changed at 50K. The car has push button start. It is the only thing on the car that failed that I would consider outside normal maintenance/wear-tear. The dealership had to fix this. Don't buy this car if you expect superior fuel economy. I drive 80% highway. I average 23.7 miles per gallon.

An Honest, thorough review on my 2013 Ford Fusion

2013 Ford Fusion SE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

I bought my 1.6L SE Ecoboost in May 2016 and have put 35,000 miles on it since. Last summer I took it on a 4,000 mile road trip from Minnesota to Arizona and back with zero issues. I got a combined MPG of 28.7 mpg. Pros: -Relatively good highway mileage around 29-31 mpg. If I am careful, I can get up to 36 average. -Sport mode is great for downhill engine braking and giving a quick boost to pass other drivers on the road. -Comes standard with Bluetooth. -Fusions delivered to Minnesota and other cold winter states come standard with a heater block. -Standard sound system sounds great. -Car rides quiet at highway speeds, can get somewhat noisy ascending hills. -Spacious trunk with 60/40 split fold down seats. -Decent handling for a family sedan. -I could see MyKey being convenient if you have children or borrowing your car to a friend. You can limit the top speed, set a max stereo volume, and have the audio system muted until the driver and front passenger are wearing seatbelts. -Blindspot mirrors come standard. -Car is equipped with three 12V charging outlets, an AUX cord port, and a USB plug-in for SYNC. -Has option for Sirius Satellite radio. Cons: -I live in Duluth, MN. It’s a very hilly city and it the winter I get an average of about 18.8 MPG. I believe it’s because of the turbo working the engine hard to get up those steep hills. -Acceleration is sluggish but not horrible. 0-60 is around 8-9 seconds with top speed of 121 mph. Which is pretty good for a 1.6L I4. -Bluetooth can be difficult to connect sometimes. -On two separate occasions, I’ve had my windshield wipers stop working for 2-3 minutes. -To change the headlight bulb you have to bring it to a Ford dealer because they have to take the entire bumper off just to access the headlight. They’ll charge you around $40 just for that. -The SE stereo can be finicky and hard to navigate for some. -I have found when using the USB plug-in it charges my phone very slowly. -A part broke on my fold down seat causing it to be stuck in the down position. Fortunately, Ford replaced the part for me with no charge. -I’m not a mechanic, but I am worried about the longevity of my motor considering it’s small size moving such a large car. Overall, I’m satisfied with my purchase of this vehicle. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, stylish family sedan at a low price.

This car is the 2013 Fusion Titanium with the 2.0 Turbo charged engine and 6 speed auto transmission. The car has been trouble free, the only item which required service other than routine maintenance is a rattle in the area of the sun roof. The dealership located the problem, a loose screw and fixed it no problem. It currently has 29,300 trouble free miles on it. We have driven it in a range of conditions and it has performed well. It gets about 32 mpg on the highway and considerably less around town as my wife is a bit of a lead foot. We have owned the car for three years now and still going strong.

Fusion SE 2.0T Ecoboost

The Fusion has a smooth ride and a supremely quiet cabin. I am getting 29 mpg highway and 24 mpg mixed driving with the 2.0L Ecoboost. The leather seats in SE trim are styled differently than those in the Titanium; but they are every bit as comfortable. I don't get the complaints about My Ford Touch -- it is logical enough and the Bluetooth works flawlessly. Overall, the 2.0 litre Fusion SE has been a very satisfying, fun car to drive. My last three cars were a Volvo S80, Volvo 960 and Porsche 911SC.
