This are the most up-to-date car repair histories available for the Ford Fusion. Car repair descriptions appear the instant owners post them. And the results of TrueDelta's Car Reliability Survey are promptly updated every three months. Other sources can be over a year behind.

To measure reliability, TrueDelta calculates a "Successful Repair Trips per 100 Cars per Year" stat. The latest Car Reliability Survey (CRS) results include Ford Fusion reliability information based on owner experiences through June 30, 2009:

Below you'll find Ford Fusion repair descriptions submitted through the Car Reliability Survey and the Car Repair History Survey that supplements it. Ordered by model year, with newest first.

Most cars for which no repairs have been reported are not shown. So individual repair histories should not be used to infer reliability. Instead, they provide an idea of the the repairs Ford Fusion owners have been experiencing,

Odometer readings and costs are in local units.
