    I had the same issue in my 2017 Lincoln MKZ. A very cheap and flimsy latch. Dealer did have to order a new console.

    The base models are lacking many of the things I have in my Fusion. I would not expect this for a luxury car. To get everything I have in my 2013 Fusion, i would have to spend upwards of 60K. And an 8" screen for navigation, etc. What were they thinking?

    Hallelujah! I was ready to give up on my car.

    The first thing we need is for Ford to acknowledge there is a problem, which I don't think they have done.

    I wonder if there is anything we can do to get Ford's attention? Does it help to contact Trina or whoever at Ford? This is worse than any MPG issue as far as I'm concerned. It sours the whole car new car experience. I spent 35,000 on a stink machine. Instead of sparky, I may have to rename stinky.

    Is this something that would be covered under warranty?

    Has anybody had ths issue fixed? My A/C stinks up the car for a few seconds at startup. I have never experienced anything like this in any other car. It seems to be getting worse.

    I agree that the Fusion is hard to get in and out of, even with the easy access function. It all goes back to ergonomics. I don't think much thought was given to this, And although I love the look and the finishes in the Fusion, i do think they need to go back to the drawing board where some of these issues are concerned.

    They aren't buying very many Fusion Energi's either. You have to have trunk space and a reasonable premium.

    I would like to see better cabin ergonomics. Center console is to far back. Window power buttons are to far forward. Cup holders are nice but awkwardly placed. Would also like a coin tray that is easily accessible and more storage nooks in general.

    Thanks for the pictures. That's a lot brighter than my Fusion

    47/47 is unrealistic for most people in the real world. Everybody's commutes are different, and that plays a big part in the mileage you will get. There are other factors such as terrain, weather, trip length, etc, and they all play a role. That being said, the car is capable of delivering great city mileage. Highway mileage, it is really not possible to come close to the 47 unless you are willing to drive at 60 MPH, and then you might come close.

    A larger gas tank would also be welcome. 13.5 is way too small

    I like your list. I also agree that build quality issues need some attention. Why is it so hard for trunk and other parts of the car to align? Also they can do a better job of providing mileage feedback. Tank average should be computed automatically. There should be no need to set a trip computer for this. Current trip MPG should be updated real time, not just displayed at the end of the trip. There should be better graphics for those that have MFT. Why not take advantage of that 8" screen for those that paid for it and provide some nice mileage graphs? My 7 year old Camry Hybrid did all of the above. There's no reason for the Fusion not to.

    How much did you pay? They wanted 450, but settled on 400. I wonder if I could have done better on price if I shopped around.

    Got my windows tinted today using Formula One Pinnacle 30. It cost $400 plus tax. i am happy with the job they did and the look. Pinnacle is a ceramic tint ( which causes no interference problems with electronics ), and has good heat and UV protection. Here is a link to the specs of all the Formula One tints. http://www.formulaone.com/pdf/FormulaOneSpecSheet.pdf http://s1334.photobucket.com/user/FusionTX1/media/Fusion/20130518_140541_zpsa55fecd9.jpg.html][/url] http://s1334.photobucket.com/user/FusionTX1/media/Fusion/20130518_140556_zpse7ad4693.jpg.html][/url] http://s1334.photobucket.com/user/FusionTX1/media/Fusion/20130518_140612_zpsf4c31fe1.jpg.html][/url] http://s1334.photobucket.com/user/FusionTX1/media/Fusion/20130518_140627_zpsfd8ab4ff.jpg.html][/url]

    I have to say yours look brighter, but it is a bit hard to tell from the picture.

    Could it be that the hybrid titaniums have a different ambient light system or maybe there is a problem in the HyTi's ambient lighting. Can someone with a regular titanium show a picture of your ambient lights?
  19. fusionTX
    Maybe there is something wrong with mine. I have adjusted the settings. Will have to checkout one at the dealer to see if it behaves the same. I can barely tell what color I set unless I put my hand against it.
  20. fusionTX
    One of the reasons for waiting on a HyTi was the availability of ambient lighting. I must say after getting it, that I am slightly disappointed in the ambient lighting. It seems you can barely notice that it's on, even at it's highest intensity. So much so, that it's hard to tell what color you are using. I think the red probably shows the most, but I really want the blue to shine. Anyone else feel this way? Or maybe I have a defective one in this area? I would much rather have only one color option and have it work right, then have a bunch of choices, none of which have much intensity. Any way to fix this using different bulbs with existing fixtures? Would like to hear what others think.

    This happened to me for the second time in my two week old car. The download worked for me. Very frustrating having bluetooth crap out on you. It's the one thing you need to work 100% of the time. In 7 years with my previous car, never had one problem.
  22. fusionTX
    Ain't that the truth. Imagine going to pick up your car and it's a different color than you ordered
  23. fusionTX
    I am very happy for you. Now chill dude

    Received my car yesterday. Thank you for all your help.

    I got three 750 coupons over my 3 month wait. The first was from requesting a brochure online. Got the coupon the first time I tried it. Subsequent requests, no coupons. The second coupon I got when I called Ford customer service to inquire about my car. They got all my information and mentioned they would send me a brochure. i made no mention of coupons and I wouldn't recommend you do that either. On a subsequent call to that number ( before I knew they had already issued me a new one) I mentioned my old coupon would be expiring and i did not get much sympathy. My third coupon I received by registering with sync-my-ride, this after having my VIN. I don't think you are supposed to register until after you purchase your car, but the system allows you to do so. A few days after that, the coupon showed up on MyFord ( for which you use the same login as sync-my-ride)
