2006 Ford Fusion review from North America
"Not much bang for your buck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lumbar support has broken three times.
Radio/Time light has burned out.
Car is too light for winter travel.
Engine sounds like a moped.
General comments?
Very disappointing to have the lumbar support break so frequently. I simply don't have the time to keep taking my vehicle back to the dealer to have this replaced. They have to order the part, etc. Headache. Not to mention that when it breaks, it scares you! I've had it break while driving down the busy 401. Not funny.
The radio lights have gone out. If I hit a bump, on they come! It's either a fuse or the radio light itself (which will be very expensive because they have to remove the dash). I'm over the 60,000 mark and it's not covered.
I've got $850.00 worth the tires on this car and it still doesn't respond well on our snowy roads. The car feels too light. When I drive my husband's car (2003 Ford Taurus) with its cheap Canadian Tire snow tires, I'm always delighted with its ability to handle the worst snow conditions. Solid. Drives like a tank! Love it!
Good grief! I've paid a fortune for this car and it sounds like a cheap Sunfire. Yuk...I've learned my lesson. It will be a Toyota Camry for me next time!!
