  1. The syncmyride website is saying mine is up to date too
  2. Just called my dealer, and they said pretty much what others here have said. The serrvice advisor indicated that unless you are smelling the fuel odor and/or see leakage under the car, they will not replace it. The is a select number of parts currently which are reserved for those experiencing issues. He said Ford will send out the official recall notice in 3rd quarter and have sufficient parts avaliable for all customers under the recall to get the module replaced. Guess I will start being more observant of the odor and leakage. He did tell me the odor and/or leakage should be coming from the passenger side since that is where the module is located. If he didn't say that I would have thought driver's side since that is where the fuel filler is.
  3. I have the same recall listed on the owner site. Tried to schedule an appt through the site but i got an error. I will call tomorrow to schedule an appt.
  4. Good points. I have looked inti aftermarket options and that would be close to $600 and it isnt a factory look etc. I would hope the parts may be around the $520 amount if i got them for a ford dealer parts dept, then it is about the labor cost...ughhh. Probably not worth the cost but if somehow under $1000 i would consider it.
  5. I am interested to see how feasible it would be to add the Push button start and intelligent access to my SE Hybrid. That is the one feature I really miss and has caused me a bit of regret not waiting a few extra months for the Hybrid Titanium I ordered.
  6. I have the Husky liners, and I am really happy with them. The drivers side fits excellent and covers more area than the Weatherbeaters. All of the liners fit well The material is a good quality plastic/vinyl combo, and has many small nibs that grip the carpet. I took the front ones out after winter was over, but keep the rear one in since my partner's kids and their friends are not exactly careful with their feet/shoes.
  7. Yep, confirm on my drive to work today, that my steering wheel is offset to the right a bit. The Ford symbol on the wheel seems to be centered between the D and L for the gear selection on the instrument cluster, not in line with the N like you would think it would be. Not a big deal, but I thought I noticed it a few weeks ago.
  8. I am pretty sure my steering wheel is actually offset to the right a bit, so the opposite issue of the original poster. I thought maybe this is intentional, but i guess not. I will confirm soon when i get up.
  9. I really like the feel and texture of the leather steering wheel. It is firm yet has enough cushion to be comfortable. I am glad it is/was part of the appearance package. The leather wheel in my old TL might have been thicker, but it didn't feel as nice or comfortable.
  10. That is where I had my oil change redone today. Purchased from Beasley in York. Probably not again.
  11. Which dealer puts the stickers on even if the customer doesn't want it? Curious since i am in Central PA and if i get another Ford after this, i am interested to know. I bought this Fusion in York. Probably not again.
  12. I.made sure they took.off their dealer sticker before i took delivery even though the salesman wrote do not install dealer sticker on the order form with my file. I didn't mind having the frame on the car for a little while until the bad weather cleared and i found a nice Penn State or Phillies one. I was hapoy with them and didn't mind giving them a little free advertising until this issue.
  13. Bailey, Your response to my thoughts was exactly the way i felt. Like they didn't think i knew what i was talking about. Very frustrating and I just gave up trying. I'll take my business elsewhere. I removed their license plate frame before i went to work this morning and threw it in the trash sort of angrily.
  14. I intend on sending a letter to the dealer service manager and calling Ford customer service. Even after i told them the differences in the capacities for the 3 main Fusion engines. I even said, maybe you got the 2.0 liter ecoboost mixed up with the hybrid 2.0 liter. Didnt help. Grrrr.
  15. Update: Lets just say that I dont think i will be going back to my dealer for service again. I took the car in yesterday to have them redo the oil change or at least take some oil out, and after about 15 minutes, the service writer brought me back to talk to the mechanic. They both went on to tell me that 5.5 quarts is the correct amount and that it is ok if the oil level is at the upper open dot on the dipstick. I told them that the owners manual says 4.5 quarts for the hybrid, and is 5.7 for the 2.0 ecoboost (picture me pointing to the glove box lol grrrrr) and still they said 5.5. He even took out the dipstick to show it was around that level, which i beleive was the case since it was just driven in minutes earlier, so not all the oil drained back into the pan, so it was reading a bit lower than actual. He went on to tell me he fills it to the upper dot which I don't think is ok, but would be passable. I told them i checked it a good 18 hours after i last drove it, and it was above the open dot and close to the swirl part of the stick The service writer said they will make a note in the computer to not charge me for 6 qts next time, and i said that wasn't the point, the overfilling was. My bill was corrected on saturday so i wasnt worried about that part. I will probably call the local dealer near my work later and see if they can fit me in for an oil change in the next couple days. I'll just eat $25-30 and call it a day.
