Ford Fusion Reliability

Want to more clearly know what the difference in reliability will be if you buy a Ford Fusion rather than another vehicle? Concerned about your chances of getting a lemon?

TrueDelta provides this information in the form of "times in the shop" stats that make the actual repair rates clear and, in the future, "lemon-odds."

The latest Car Reliability Survey (CRS) results include Ford Fusion reliability information based on owner experiences through June 30, 2010:

We also have some new reliability stats for the Ford Fusion. "Nada-odds" reports the percentage that required no repairs at all, not even a minor one--nada--in the past year, while "Lemon-odds" reports the percentage that required three (or more) repair trips.

To provide comprehensive results, TrueDelta needs reliability data on all cars--not just the Ford Fusion--from people like you. To encourage participation, those who help provide the data receive free access to the site's car reliability information. Find out the details.

Ford Fusion Repair Histories

To supplement our Car Reliability Survey, TrueDelta collects Ford Fusion repair histories, a list of all the repairs that have been performed on a vehicle. With these, no minimum sample is required and owners can report repairs that occurred before joining.

Individual responses to both the Car Reliability Survey and the Car Repair History Survey are posted here:

Ford Fusion Extended Warranty

Concerned about the Ford Fusion's reliability? Considering an extended warranty? Warranty Direct is a 26-year-old company with nearly 2 million contracts sold and over $500 million in paid claims.

Like insurance, extended warranties are best bought to limit downside risk, and from a company that is almost certain to remain in business. While for most people extended warranties will not pay off, for some they will pay for themselves many times over.

If you are unsure about the Ford Fusion's reliability, or simply want the peace of mind afforded by an extended warranty, you can click here to purchase one from Warranty Direct.

Ford Fusion Gas Mileage

"Why (Not) the Ford Fusion?" Reviews

For car buyers' reasons for buying a Fusion--or not--click here.

Want another perspective? Since 1999, Michael Karesh, the developer of TrueDelta, has contributed reviews to Epinions, where he is one of two people who oversee the autos section.

Michael's most recent Ford Fusion review.

Note: The older the review, the more likely it has become outdated owing to more recently introduced competitors.

Ford Fusion Tire Reviews

The Tire Rack offers the Internet's most extensive collection of Ford Fusion tire reviews, tire survey results, and tire tests. To see which tires are available for the Ford Fusion--or for your car--and go from there to Tire Rack's comprehensive information, use the tool in the sidebar.

The Tire Rack can be especially useful as a source of winter tires, which I have strongly recommended ever since buying a set for my car. If you're unhappy with your car's handling and braking on snow and ice, you probably just need proper winter tires, not a new car.
