It really isn’t a dumb idea for ford to dump the sedans. Japanese sedans are better quality for better price with better mpg all the way around. In American, we want trucks and pickups. Ford can make SOO much more money just selling trucks and the mustang. It’s a business decision and I can bet ya it will be a plus for Ford down the road

My 2014 Ti Hybrid has 64000 on it. Love the car now but when I got it ,it had a lot of problems. Spent the better part of a year in the shop. The blind spot system was having malfunctions, the cam shaft position sensor kept going out every 5K miles, and the thing couldn't hold its oil. The dealer ended up replacing the radar modules and some of the sensors and the blind spot & cross traffic worked again. For the cam shaft position sensor...just keep tossing them at the car until one works. The last cam shaft position sensor seems to be a winner as it has lasted about 10K miles. The oil problem was noticed during the first oil change where it all drained back out. From what I was told they had to replace nearly every seal in the engine. The service person working on the car didn't quite get everything buttoned up and exhaust gasses were coming into the cabin after that large fix. I will probably not buy another Ford after this ordeal. Hopefully I am past the problems and the car will be trouble free going forward.

The Fusion is one of the best looking cars in its class. However, I believe the reasons sales are weak due to a dated interior and poor fuel economy. It’s tough to make the case for the Fusion when Camry’s and Accord’s can pull down 40 mpg on the highway. The ecoboost engines have never lived up to the promise of efficient performance. Ford just doesn’t want to put the money into updating the car properly.

@@Jason-kg3oc The entire active range is retarded. All the negatives of an SUV and none of the positives of a normal family hatchback. The crossover is the combination of the worst of both worlds. People should either get a hatchback which is good in its on right or an SUV which is good in its own right not some hatch with raised springs and plastic cladding on the bumper.

Your production quality is getting really amazing! Keep it up...SMILE. I have the 2015 Ford Fusion Hybrid S. Overall I think Ford did a lot right, especially with how the battery drive complements the gas engine with smooth transitions and provides nice torque boost on initial acceleration (and generally accurate/responsive handling). It's probably the quietest car I've ever owned too, partly owing to the car's active noise cancellation technology. Now for the gripes, which include two majors and two minors: 1. The tires have proven to be delicate in pothole thick Washington, DC. I had to replace three tires in five months--they're not cheap, and there's no spare tire! The first tire blew when I hit a pot hole last November. The second tire blew in February because I made a turn just tight enough to brush a curb. Yep, I brushed a curb and got less than one block before it went flat. In March the third tire apparently picked up a screw in a part of the tire that couldn't be patched. 2. At three years old my car is creaking and squeaking, and the plastic clips that should fit around the visor's ?hinge? hardware are falling down. 3. Even when the car was new, the steering never felt natural. I constantly have to correct in one direction or another. My previous car was a Taurus, and it had no problem just going straight. 4. The radio sometimes switches sources from Bluetooth to FM; it's totally random. I know 3 and 4 seem trivial, but when you're used to a Taurus that's built like a tank, annoying little stuff like this can be a deal breaker. So I'm seriously wondering, is anybody else dealing with delicate tires and plastic clips falling on you while you're driving, or is it just me? I love Ford's hybrid implementation and noise cancellation to the extent that I'm tempted to buy a new Fusion Hybrid, but some of the problems I'm having are aggravating enough to make me look at Accords (for the first time in my life).

How about bringing the Falcon stateside? I know FPV has stopped making it, but take its platform, remodel the design for sportiness and call it the Galaxie.

It's probably because Ford loses money on making these cars versus selling them compared to their trucks. They've never been able to compete with the sales figures of the Asian competitors.

When the Fusion first came out in the current design I really liked it, thought it was a handsome car and I still do. I worked at a Chevy dealer for 22 months and we only got a couple in and they sold, just like the previous gen Escape I wasn't in love with the interior as much as the exterior, especially the Sync system as well, but the one you are testing looks good enough for a bulk brand (non luxury model) and has been updated as companies tend to do at the end of a cycle. We would get Malibu or Impala customers that would ask why isn't there an AWD version, so there are some that still prefer a car over a CUV, but like you said only Subaru and Ford offered AWD and now for 19 Nissan does in the Altima. I guess companies are afraid to lose out on fuel economy with the extra weight of the AWD system, but it still would be nice to have as an option for those that are car lovers and prefer the drive of a car over a CUV/SUV and of course live in the snow belt like we do. As far as why Ford is killing off all their cars aside from the Mustang is as you said a decline in sales, they continue to drop year after year even if it is a small percentage. The sedan market as a whole is losing out on sales to the compact CUVs like the Escape, Equinox, Rav4, Rogue, CRV, etc... Ford sells about maybe 120-150k Fusions a year compared to the Japanese and Korean brands. Blows my mind with all the people out there saying they want jobs in the USA and will only buy American, yet buy Camrys, Accords, Altimas, Civics, Corollas, Sonotas, Elantras, etc... See if you can get your hands on a Ford Edge ST, because that is where they are going even with their Ford Performance stuff outside of the Mustang, I am sure there will be ST or RS versions of the Escape, Explorer which is now or going to be RWD bias, as well.

It's as if someone redesigned the Mark 8, giving it a bigger grill and 2 more doors, then cut the engine in half, but doubled the horsepower! Lol... In any case, I will be sad to see the Fusion go away, just because pick up trucks and sport utilities are "popular" today. I might as well keep my Fusion after its paid off, and later it will become popular again over time like the Edsel, another Ford product. (Those were way ahead of their time, but also not popular then, and look at the Edsel today!)... Anyway, great review, Sir!
