My NEW (used) 2016 Ford Fusion Titanium

[@dutchmankamstra96]

Seriously, Daniel devotes a good chunk of time putting out wonderful, informative videos for us to enjoy and some of you have the nerve to criticize and run down his choice in a new car. All of you should be ashamed of yourselves!! Daniel is very proud of his new purchase (and rightly so). How would you feel if the situation was reversed? I really hate how mean American's are towards one another at times. Social media really brings out the ugliness in our society. I just want to say "congratulations, Daniel"! I hope you and your new Fusion have many, many happy and carefree miles together. Thanks for putting out so many great videos... I really appreciate your hard work.

I bought one new Ruby RedTitanium in 2013 when they first came out. Every gas station i stopped at, someone asked what I was driving, many photos taken. A lot of people mentioned the Aston Martin inspired grill too. In 2018 I had a new one as a company car, base model with a really nice but rather boring 2.5. I've been trying to decide between a slightly older Lexus IS350 and a newer Fusion, tonight I think I'm staying brand loyal and picking up a 2016-2017 Fusion, I've taken LOOOOOONG drives in one and they are just so nice to drive, especially for the price. This 2.0, everyone doubted, being a Ford tech I was sure it would price itself and that it has. I work in the aftermarket industry and am in shops and dealerships all day, there are no mechanics that can say 'look out for .....: they are just so reliable. Thanks for the vid, you finally made up my mind.

[@tamara7859]

I rented this car when I went for vacation to the US. I totally loved it! They gave it to me brand new 0 miles on it and returned it with 1,500 miles in 4 days! Lol. The engine was a ecoboost turbo and the car was the titanium version. Loved the engine torque and the fast response, but mostly the quietness and roar upon rpm range. Cruise control made a great driving experience. 1+ MPH made a huge response and going downhill the car automatically braked for me. Never went over the cruise control once! Beautiful body and design. Great Sony radio and button lay out was nice. It crashed once but recovered quickly and phone calls threw bluetooth was a breeze with hands-free on the steering wheel. Great trunk space too! In the city it used more fuel, but on highway it was very economical. I would love to go for a Fusion for my daily car! Great interior and space. Loved the key fob also! Very nice to remote start! Just simply elegant!

[@rgebes222]

really glad you mentioned that clacking under the hood. I have a 2012 focus that I believe uses that same pump and sounds similar. I just bought it so I was worried something was wrong but that makes a lot of sense now.

[@Pistuhlero]

Whats up Daniel, I have watched your videos ever since I was interested in buying an Excursion. Sadly I have not bought one, I ended up grabbing a 2017 Ford F150, but I still live watching your videos man, ,and I always have something to learn and enjoy from them. Thanks again man, TAKE IT EASY!!

[@HermannTheGreat]

They're the best midsize sedans for the price for the last few years.

[@DeadofWinter321]

Nice! I had a 2016 Ford Fusion SE for a rental car for a week. I really, really didn't want to give the car back.

[@RealmsofPixelation]

I rented a 2019 hybrid Fusion and couldn't wait to send it back. People are fooled because they've never driven a GOOD car. These things are trash.

[@tashastewart243]

Me too😂

[@Treeck57]

Very nice review on your new fusion! I liked this better than the others video because of the better explanation on the technical as well as includes the mechanical issues as well unlike others where they aren't aware of it. I'm happy to know that you have no problem driving your fusion.

[@BobbyFocus2008]

Nice , I knew this car was awesome ,thanks for sharing it, it helped me make a decision to but it .

[@ScoobyDigites]

you can always add leds to your projectors plenty of nice quality bulbs out there

[@theodorerinehart781]

Congrats on your Fusion purchase. I have a 2013 Taurus Limited, I like the car, very reliable, but the Fusion maybe my next purchase. I'm sure you saved quite a bit buying used

[@chadharmon5716]

Congratulations on your new Ford 👍🏻

[@jamesmitchell3561]

He is incorrect about the SD card for the GPS. You can purchase them off of Amazon and they go down in the center console area next to the USB plug

[@DrewsLair]

the thing ALL newer cars have that sucks! is the transmission fluid - there is not a dipstick, except usually the dipstick that made that design.

[@TheSaintshockey03]

Just remember the 2.0 requires 5W30 full synthetic motor oil...

[@Badgertronix]

they are great cars. Enjoy

[@thatruth6488]

My 2016 fusion titanium was a peice if shit I just traded out of it problems after problems

[@RealmsofPixelation]

They are pieces of absolute shit.

[@bweikie]

Do you have any experience driving Fusions in the snow? Considering purchase in the New England area......thx.

[@Sheikh_Speare]

Hey Daniel, did you did take down a large chunk of you videos? Some of my faves are gone, I can't find them :(

[@disneyfan9099]

Emanuel Bastian Same

[@Sheikh_Speare]

pug Williams glad I'm not the only one who noticed, the Ford fusion power steer, the diesel in the Cruz, broken subframe, all gone.

[@epicclips456]

Emanuel Bastian I was wondering if i was checking the right channel.. I'm pretty disappointed

[@meekfan4life252]

I thought I was the only one lol

[@disneyfan9099]

Emanuel Bastian It seems like his rental car videos

[@F150PullsBayliner]

Do you still have this car? I'm looking at this one and it's the Fusion Energi. Do you know if those are reliable? I really want a Fusion sedan because the new Camry 8 speed transmission sucked when I test drove it!

[@dangreen8905]

I was pretty set on getting an F150 for my next car, but I think you may have sold the Fusion for me, I always liked it, and getting one of those here in NY is probably easier than an F150. Great video Daniel +DanielJaegerFilms

[@jacquesmontague2477]

A friend has a '13 Escape with the 1.6L, his oil is always black before 3,000 miles. Keep an eye on it, I always change mine every 3,000, but I don't have a turbo, and my oil is usually a light to dark brown.

[@SuperDavis00]

same car here is in Australia .just called a Mondeo and our last falcon looks almost identical except it's a 4 litre straight 6 turbo and 5 litre coyote V8.looks nice

[@Jonathan11225]

even tho i dont like Ford, but i have to say that the Fusion is a really good looking car i realy like the first gen also

[@buddcarcook4655]

Got a 2015 SE w/ 1.5 ecoboost. Works like a charm👍🏻The turbo is alot of fun. Nice post btw.

[@gilbertrr]

Good review Daniel! Just like you did, I now own a 2008 Ford Fusion SEL V6 and I absolutely love the car. It rides like a luxury car and I never have had any major mechanical issues with it. I'm looking at getting another Fusion as well so it was nice to get your take on it. Like Ryan G pointed out, "only 27mpg?" You know the old Fusions maybe get 18mpg in the city so this would be a great improvement to the fuel bills.

[@ppeters480]

Very interesting I just bought the same exact used car last week 2016 Ford Fusion Titanium in black and 42k miles, it drives great. Very fun car to drive, I will keep watching to see what your experience is with yours and compare to mine mine is black as well

[@ClawBoss]

Very nice!

[@ReadySetGame87]

Pretty informative, i just bought one and was wondering why the engine seemed a bit louder but you explained it for me so thanks.

[@gregoryeverson741]

i have the same car, its quiet to me, also if some1 is trying to race you at a stop light, you can beat most v6 and v8s, i got the car cuz im 6'3 210lbs, the seats feel great, tried other cars

[@MDKN22]

I've been waiting for some videos bro! Your channel is amazing!

[@jaadams72]

Hi Daniel, have you heard about the global window up and down. If you hold the unlock button down it will roll down all of the windows and vent the sunroof. Also if you hold the lock button down it will close everything up. On the navigation, it this a Sony radio thing? I have a 2016 SE with Sync2 and I have an SD card with maps on it. Maybe i could copy it for you? My SD slot is in the center console.

[@marcharris2734]

awsome car. allways liked the fusions

[@rileypart1]

+DanielJaegerFilms I thought you were getting a 2017 Fusion? But Congrats your new car 🚗🙂

[@alexsbikesandmotors]

this is the best looking 4 door American car right now besides the Charger

[@bufordblu3338]

Alex's Bikes and Motors not, crappy design.

[@bufordblu3338]

Alex's Bikes and Motors Styling is already dated.

[@disneyfan9099]

So I am guessing you got this used from Enterprise? I liked this car but for 2016 it just looks outdated.

[@eddideleon2845]

Hi bro, I am thinking of buying this car, I would like to know how it looks, if it is good or bad ? They sell me the 2016 titanium with engine 2.0 ecoboost turbo. Regards from Dominican Republic

[@Nickthecarguy]

I got a 2017 ford fusion se and i really like it. I also have bunch of video of me adding and upgrading stuff to it

[@ThatCarGuy2]

Fusions are the best!

[@thisuser5092]

you made this video 5 years ago...how about an update?

[@10usausa]

Thanks for sharing, well I have one question for you. I just finished college and I live in Fargo ND, and it gets very very cold, and I'm now looking for a new car, I like the Fusion, style, design, and the gas mileage, yet my family keeps saying go for the Camry.... So what is the pros and cons between them? Thanks for your time and considerations

[@tylerdekrey6051]

What did you go with? I'm torn between the Fusion and Camry. Also live in Fargo!

[@ghasanahmed6159]

Greetings found best 13 fusion I hate reading the negative comments all over the web. The Camry has reputation of mind free problems or less known. The fusion seems like I hope it starts today feeling. So I am torn as you are they are beauty's and this is why I decided to flank on my appointment to make a deal on one today.

[@ForTheRecordaudiophileMichael]

one complaint about the cd player is it doesn't eject the cd enough so you're left grabbing it and leaving fingerprints on the media side

[@tashastewart243]

I rented 2020 I love the car didn’t wanna give it back

[@38911bytefree]

Love this level of Fords, the front is kinda Aston Martin. They calle it kinetics Design here, but it is very Aston Martin, after all, Ford bought it. It is even more clear in the Mondeo. No sure if Mondeo is the equiv of the fusion at USA or there is still a bigger Ford in the line. Nice styling and technology.

[@charredskeleton]

I drove my cruze for 37k miles and my electric power steering was awesome the whole time. steering effort was the same at all speeds, coming from the rear drive camp when I'm finished making a turn i loosen my grip on the wheel and allow it to "snap back" to center, I don't steer back to center. Electric racks snap back to center fast and the whole way, even faster and more fully than their rear drive hydraulic counterparts. I've driven several older front drives that had be steered back, I detest this.

[@adamrushTrouserbrowser]

"Haven't been getting the greatest gas milleage... just 27 mpg in the city..."

[@RyanStraub]

I am seriously considering buying this car but I just don't know how reliable they are

[@DarrinsChannel]

my 2017 Titanium only has two washer fluid nozzles i do how ever have sync 3 and have heated and cooled seats with the hid and led fog and head lights and yes there amazing on the highway at night

[@gustavososa4364]

Please tell me how much miles or kilometers you can do with a Fusion? I love the car, but seems it has a very small engine. It would last 1MM kilometers? Merdeces Benz wil do for sure! But Fusion?...Thanks!

[@barkow911]

Nice ride Daniel only thing I can see is the rims will take a while to clean with all those angles. Otherwise we loved our fusion :)

[@captainmashedpotato2630]

What are the illuminated numbers on the B pillar outside? They aren't fitted to U.K. spec Mondeos...

[@Aspra]

Captain MashedPotato it's the keypad for locking and unlocking the car if you don't have the key. Also opens the trunk. A lot of higher spec fords have them here.

[@Gilbert1641]

Nice car! Is that an ex rental? Would you recommend buying an ex rental car?

[@accordinglyryan]

43K on a 16? That's pretty good lol "Only" 27mpg? Lol I'd consider that quite good especially for city driving.

[@Poebat]

Dell0304 that's alot lol

[@accordinglyryan]

It is but the more miles the better I say!

[@DMAN22yeah]

im getting 16mpg in my honda accord due to my short commute and the cold, i wish i was getting 27 in city

[@MisterViolence]

I have a 2014 Ford Fusion 2.0 EcoBoost with AWD and if I break 22mpg I'm ecstatic. I'd kill for 27mpg city OR highway.

[@TheDaddynate]

The MPGs on the 2.0 is very overrated. I only get 27 when highway driving, city is more like 21. The 2.7 in the F150 gets just as good of gas mileage, it's strange.

[@cedricgildersleeve4267]

How’s it holding up ? And reliability issues?

[@717dash_cam]

I can attest to the horrible economy of the city style driving. I had the 1.5 in my 2015, and I struggled to get 22 over the 1 year/7k I had it before it went lemon law due to no crank no start issues. I miss the car to an extent, but love my 2016 Legacy. The only styling complaint I have for this generation fusion is that the trunk lid looks incomplete without the spoiler due to the creases. Comfortable, compliant, and very quick to heat up and cool down Ford traits that I miss.

[@Sazonman]

I just purchased the same ford fusion...luv it except when getting into the driver side I continue to hit the top of my head against the top of door pillar including my wife...but we still luv luv it

[@gregoryeverson741]

can i ask? in what manor is your head attached to your body? with a slinky as a neck? lol

[@mannyhenry1356]

I love my 2017 ford fusion platinum and I have no problem with my Sync 3 I bought my 2017 ford fusion platinum used with only 17262 miles for $ 25500. I think food is making a big mistake getting rid of the Fusion.

[@gustavososa4364]

Hi, Do your car burn oil? I have read the 2.0 Ecoboos has that problem. Would you please share with my your experience? I plan to buy one of those in Argentina. Thank you.

[@DanielJaegerFilms]

Personally I haven't seen any issues with the 2.0 EcoBoost engine burning oil. The only thing I can think of is the turbo seal might be leaking and sucking oil into the intake.

[@gustavososa4364]

@@DanielJaegerFilms Thank you for your comment.

[@barkow911]

Also is a boost gauge a thing of the past ?

[@Sandhu3773]

The front of this car is beautiful but the rear could have been prettier. Usually the design of the front of any vehicle is hindered due to pedestrian crash safety, but the rear has almost no restrictions in that regard. Good car nonetheless.

[@DangaRanga]

had the same exact car for a rental but a 2017. I got 14 mpg out of it. vrooommm vrooommm lol

[@FLJAMESFL]

Congratulation buddy

[@mrinterested]

Is that the 1.6 or 2.0 engine.with the 2.0 engine, traction control barely works and you can peel in 2nd

[@TheDaddynate]

Especially with those crap Goodyears they put on them. I used to spin all the time trying to merge into traffic. It got better with different tires

[@Rockport1911]

2:25 What is it with american vehicles and the Keyless entry numberpad on the door? Why do you still need these with keyless entry and stuff?

[@genehaggerty9271]

It's great when you lock your keys inside the car or just need to run out and grab something out of it but don't have your keys on you. But I'm sure many people never use it.

Thats a nice car. Id never buy one, cause I dont like Fords, but its still nice.

Hey so. Are you still doing the 4BT swap in your ranger? lol

[@Eddiecurrent2000]

I've got the 2015 UK version (Mondeo), 2.0 litre Diesel Estate (Wagon), and it's the best car I've had! Pulls like a train, corners like it's on rails and is comfy as hell! Mine has the LED headlights and they are pretty awesome to be honest, if there was a way of fitting them on yours I'd definitely have a think about it. I did note that there are numbers on the door, what on earth are those?

[@darryla6527]

Eddiecurrent2000 the number keypad on the door is for locking, unlocking, and opening the trunk without having the key. It's been available on fusion since 2008MY

[@Eddiecurrent2000]

Darryl Dedner Ah, thanks Darryl, it's a cool idea I wonder if the UK versions will ever have something like that?

[@genehaggerty9271]

It's actually been available on various Fords going back to about 1980, it long predates the "keyless entry" we are accustomed to today.

[@Kcducttaper1]

I really like that style of Fusion as well, but I've been kinda nervous about working on it. Every Ford product I've worked on so far has been a major pita to work on and ends up with me ultimately wanting to punch the engineers in the face.

My 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium had a recall on the safety door latches and they were replaced in 2018 by a local dealer. Its been 18 months since the latches were replaced and while driving to work my door flew open while driving..I pulled over & walked to the passenger side front door and tried to close it..The door bounced back open..The safety latch (which was recalled and fixed) the recalled part broke.. I took it to the dealer Coccia Ford in Plains Twp. PA. Frank Dominick the service manager states Ford only gives you a 12 month warranty on a recalled part..This seems ridiculous and it also cost me $279.00 to be exact..I called Ford Service and they don't care! I've owned cars for over 35 years and not one of them I had to worry about the door opening while driving..I'm done with Ford 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium owner #Ford #FixOrRepairDaily #CheapHeap #MexicanMadeGarbage #FordBlows

[@JohnDiMartino]

The Ford direct injected engines have serious carbon deposit issues, some 2017 ecoboosts have gone back to traditional fuel injectors combined with direct injection in order to address the issue, your 5000 mile oil changes with conventional oil on a turbo car are stretching it a bit,you need to. disregard the 10k interval that's just a selling point these engines work harder than ever and make more heat,the turbo puts additional stress on the oil as well. That car looks a bit like the late 90s camaros especially the grille,looks plain Jane to me sorry I don't see anything aggressive about that car,as long as you like it and it's reliable that's all that matters.

[@ramivalencia]

John DiMartino Do you even know what a 90's Camaro looks like? It looks nothing like the Fusion, regardless of any angle you may look at it.

[@Davido50]

John DiMartino Ford engineered the Ecoboost engines very very well. Gen1 & Gen2 Ecoboost have been very reliable! Ford is no stranger to designing turbo charged engines.

[@TheDaddynate]

I have 100k on mine and I can tell you they do have their issues. The purge valve is faulty and will cause your car to run rich fouling out the converter. Its a very common issue on these cars and it's very hard to find the part as they discontinued it knowing it was bad, but they never recalled on it and it doesn't get bad until you get up over 80k and outside warranty.
