I have a 2013 Fusion Energi that just hit 310,000 miles with maintenance as stated in the owner's manual. Still running strong. I'll report back when I experience my first component failure.
This is a really informative video. I’m looking into possibly buying a 2013+ Fusion and had been looking at YT videos of Fusions. YT algorithm recommended this video and I’m glad for it. Subscribed.
I have a 2015 fusion with 150k hard miles. There was issue with the steering column that got fixed in 2020 and cost around 1k. No other issues and it’s still going every day.
I've owned a 2017 Fusion Sport for a year and a half now and love the car! I got it with 58K miles and currently have 92.5K on it. I do all the maintenance myself and heres what thats been: oil changes every 5K miles (getting oil analysis to see if the Amsoil can go longer), transmission fluid change when I got the car, and i did it again at 85K miles to find it needed more fluid than I drained for a correct fluid level (it shifted good before, but 3rd gear is noticeably less harsh now). At 62K miles I replaced all rotors and pads (the rear pads wear faster than the fronts on these cars). Then spark plugs at 80K miles (time consuming, be warned), serpentine belt and idler pulley (old idler pulley had started to squeak and i found out whoever put a Dayco one on somehow misaligned the washer and totally bent it in putting stress on the bearing, replaced it with a Motorcraft belt and pulley), and PTU fluid change at 80K miles, very easy to do. At 86K I flushed out the old orange coolant by doing multiple drain and fills until I had added nearly 3 gallons of the new Motorcraft yellow coolant (Ford stated they are totally safe to mix for a top off, drain and fill, or flush). Then I couldn't do the rear diff fluid myself because of a stripped drain plug (it's in a very tight spot, a torx socket won't fit because of a subframe bushing very close to it), a local shop freed up the bolt and changed the fluid for me and replaced it with a new bolt I got from Ford, $130 total. The only parts that failed were a purge valve which I replaced in a few minutes for $75 (rough idle after filling up with gas) and a rear wheel bearing at 62K miles as well, I had a shop do this for $450. The biggest problems by far with this car are the wheels, they're 19's and have 40% aspect ratio tires. You must keep them properly inflated and keep your alignment good or they'll wear fast. I've also had bent wheels which has been a pita. When I'm done with these tires I'm getting 18 inch wheels and 45% aspect ratio tires, also will upgrade to 245's over the 235's. If you live in the rust belt, the AWD is great in the snow and the car holds up well in salty areas. I don't know if this car was undercoated before I got it, but it was from Cleveland and has no rust at all. Ford did a very good job with this car, it's fast, very comfortable, and can get 30 mpg highway. One of the best cars I've ever used!
@@thelonglastexpert another note that I should mention, is that all the Fusion Sports had chain-driven oil pumps, or so the parts diagrams revealed. The same goes for the Lincoln MKZ with the 3.0 EcoBoost since it's a very similar engine. The SUV's and Lincoln Continental with the 2.7 EcoBoost received a belt-driven oil pump starting for the 2018 model year and beyond, and 2018 and beyond for the F-150. Since the change started for the 2018 model years for these vehicles you would need to enter the VIN into the Ford parts lookup system to see if that specific vehicle has it or not.
Thank you for all of information and experiences... I am stuck between picking, 2017 FFSport vs 2015 BMW 335xi and 2017 Honda Accord V6. I do live in rust belt, PA. You are convincing and pushing me more towards the Ford... Thank you!
@raphaelfrancis4509 the V6 Accord and FFSport are sleepers for sure! With the Accord you've gotta do a timing belt replacement every 100K miles, but the J-Series V6's they have are great otherwise. For the Ford, it'll need oil changes every 5K or sooner and trans and ptu fluid changes every 30K, but I've heard Honda transmissions aren't the best either long term. BMW that's a whole other animal 😂. Definitely gonna have more expensive parts and be much harder to work on. But drive all three, they're each cool in their own right
I have a 2014 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 EcoBoost. I have tried to keep up with maintenance as much as possible. Oil change every 5k miles, transmission fluid drain and fill every 15k miles or so. I first got it in 2020 and 3 months later the power steering went out. Replaced it and almost 2 years later it went out again, replaced it and 7 months later it went out, so I replaced it again and so far, it has not gone out (yet). I modified my Fusion which was fun and also made me not only keep up with but do my maintenance intervals sooner than normal. I have replaced the rear shocks and front struts with Koni Strt parts. Steeda front and rear sway bar, Steeda front tower brace, and CP-E Stage 2 rear motor mount. The vehicles suspension feels tight, and I love it, corners good and the chassis doesn't flex much. As for performance, I have put on a Steeda front mount intercooler, CP-E hot and cold side charge pipes, Turbosmart BPV, NGK Iridium IX spark plugs gapped at .026, JLT 3.0 oil separator, Mustang EcoBoost throttle body, CP-E 3" catted downpipe/cat back exhaust, Garrette Powermax Stage 1 turbo, XDI +35% high pressure fuel pump, XDI 2000CC fuel injectors and tuned on 93 octane from Unleashed Tuning. I am having an issue with the vehicle not running right. I got 2 check engine lights, a P008B Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure-Too High. So, I replaced the fuel pump in the fuel tank with another Motorcraft one and replaced the low fuel pressure sensor. the RPM needle is no longer dancing around while driving. But I still have that other CEL which is P00C6 Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low - Engine Cranking Bank 1. It takes many cranks to start up when the engine is cold, otherwise it will start up fine if it was running pretty recently. It is also misfiring intermittently and will have a massive misfire if you get on it and will take a few seconds to regain itself when the check engine light is flashing. I have ordered a new fuel rail pressure sensor which I am waiting on in the mail. When I replace that I am going to have my tuner take a look at the datalogs and see if he can get it running well. I sent in those aftermarket fuel injectors to XDI, they tested them and said they are in good condition, but I don't know. After installing them my car started having problems one week later. If all else fails, I am going to order brand new Motorcraft fuel injectors and see what happens. My money is kind of on the injectors being the issue, fingers crossed it is not the engine because I absolutely love my car and would hate to get rid of it.
I Owned a 2010 Ford Fusion 2.4 i4 non turbo non eco boost . Most reliable car I had owned. Bought used 38,000 miles and it had 289,000 when it was totaled in a crash. I did oil changes every 4000 with full synthetic 5w30. Ford stated “Lifetime” transmission fluid so it didn’t recommend a transmission fluid change, I changed transmission fluid every 30,000 miles with Valvoline Maxlife ATF . Coolant drain and fill every 50,000 miles same for brake fluid. “Lifetime fluid” ford projects lifetime do the transmission to be 100,000 so that they get repeat customers , designed to last then fail! 7000 mile changes designed to last just enough then fail. But if one does proper maintenance not the recommended maintenance, but proper maintenance and not get the ones with eco boost it is one of the most reliable vehicles out there !
@@thelonglastexpert Don’t know if the turbo would have lasted I like the regular base engine 2.4 or 2.5 inline 4 cylinder that came on the base model S and sometimes in the SE. but yes with regular maintenance any vehicle should last longer
Ive had my 2017 fusion sport since brand new. And even though i only have 30,000 miles on it it’s been pretty reliable so far. And its very fun to drive.
I had a 2015 Fusion SE, non eco boost. It had almost 250,000 miles when the transmission went out. Before that, it was trouble free miles! I miss that car.
My 2014 fusion with the 2.0 vep Spanish built engine,has 195600 miles on it now, i change the oil every 6000 miles, with 5/30 dexos rated oil. Very little if any oil usage. I change my transmission fluid 4 quarts every 30000 miles, with Valvoline lv fluid, and it shifts perfectly .. even when i use the paddles. spark plugs everywhere 2 years, air filter every 2 years. I uprated my suspension with adjustable coil overs and adjustable dampners, lower the car 30 mm, it's not 'slammed' to the ground like a lot of idiots do their cars. Has a very nice ride, and with polyurethane sway bar bushings, it handles really well, enough to give some audis and bmws a headache on twisty back roads 235/45/18 Goodyear euro LS tires have great grip, and are not wearing out all that fast., great car, yo bad Ford went stupid and tell us all, we need to drive SUVs. I went to china last year, and drove the new fusion they have and we dont, fantastic car
up to 199400 miles now.. due for a transmission fluid change..i use valvoline lv oil.. works great..i changed out the spark plugs over the summer..the old plugs were good looking still with 35000 mile on them
I have a 2.5l ford fusion bought it at 54k miles and now has 81k miles so far ao good on the engine. I change the engine oil every 3k miles and always rides smooth.
MY2018 Fusion Energi owner and honestly outside of the small trunk, the car is great. Almost no unscheduled service visits & annual oil changes, also a lifetime of 2.8L/100km use with daily ev charging.
I might as well throw my hat in the ring looking at everyone's fusion stories. I currently own a 2016 SE hybrid with 153k miles (purchased at 20k miles in 2018 due to it being a fleet vehicle before me) and do my own maintenance. So far the only issue I've had was a failed ABS sensor. I've kept up with mostly everything (basically i haven't touched the transmission yet 😅) from oil changes, spark plug swaps, ignition coils since I was in there and i was at 130k miles, and a few other things. This car has treated me very well. The only thing I'm sad about is having to trade it in soon for a bigger vehicle for the sake of space due to a new addition of a family member (it's a boy). I'd recommend this car but like this video says, low mileage with good history and if you're able to keep up with the maintenance
I have a 2013 fusion se with the 1.6 with 211k miles on it and it has been wrecked twice (previous owner) and it still runs great with pretty much just regular maintenance as well as new evap valves earlier this year it also would randomly go into limp mode for about a week which ended up just being a dirty mass flow sensor lmao
2014 fusion se ecoboost 2.0 owner here. 150k miles. No problems whatsoever. A little bit of turbo lag and you can tell second gear is getting real worn. Probably gonna have to throw a trans at it around 200k miles but besides that, runs like a champ. 200k miles and only a transmission, you can’t really ask for more these days
2017 Fusion Hybrid here. Not the energi. Been using 0w20 full synthetic every 3k-5k ish miles. At 141k miles so far without any problems. I haven’t had the transmission serviced, which I intend to have done as soon as I can afford it. After watching this, I’m definitely keeping mine under 80 mph, staying in the slow right lane from now on at 70mph or lower. Very interesting to learn about the electric pump on the transmissions only on energi hybrids, and how the cooling worked at higher speeds
There's a few youtube vid on how to service the transmission. It's actually very simple. If you change your own oil then the transmission fluid change isn't much more difficult. 👍🏻
I miss my fusion but the wifey wanted something with more features (we had an SE trim) so was traded it on a slightly newer Camry XSE. I love the Camry and it is definitely a better car in nearly every aspect besides ride quality. Somehow the fusion suspension was soft and comfortable even over rough roads while still handling exceptionally well for a “family sedan” ! Now, after figuring out that they made a sport edition of the fusion, I might have to look for one cause that sounds like something I would really enjoy.
2017 Fusion Energi SE over 180,000 kms. Best car I ever owned. Not much fixing only had to replace lead acid batteries once. Was over $600 Cdn but used a Ford $1000 gift card given to me by dealership during sale of car. Brakes are still original because car uses electric motor to stop and regenerate electricity. Due for some major maintenance like CVT oil replacement, wheel bearing due to pot hole, just changed original tires last year with Nokian tires excellent tires. I would be happy for another 180,000 kms.
I’ve got a 2014 2.0 fwd with 156k still going strong no issues at all I put 60k+ on in one year I got the car at 95k. Only thing is transmission is starting to go and I plan on replacing and doing some performance mods to it but I’m very surprised how far it’s gone with the symptoms it has and the fact that I drive it like a hellcat😂just took it to Virginia from upstate ny and she did perfect
People I have a Ford Fusion Hybrid SE 2017 I bought with 125k is now 160k . One and half years ago . The best purchase ever did . Not a significant problem or not a real problem at all . Just regular maintenance I’m planning on using it till the end it’s being a really good car , the best I drive , and 40 mpg is my avg . $3.0 is the gallon these days I can fill up the tank 35 bucks and ride it for 550 miles. . Great car really . Peace out u all . Stop the war love your brother . ❤
I bought a 2019 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid ( Fancy Ford Fusion ) new and put all the miles on it. Schaeffers synthetic oil from 1800 miles, transmission serviced every 50k or so. The car has 157k and is the best I've had so far.
I had the 2013 Hybrid for a couple years. It averaged 48 mpg so I didn't understand all the fuss. I remember getting that upgrade and actually got a few PCM upgrades. Anyway it ran flawlessly for those couple years before I got a 2015 Mustang GT 50th LE
I own a 2015 Lincoln MKZ hybrid which is the upscale version of the Fusion. The MKZ has 202k miles and has had almost no repairs needed other than oil/air filter changes, coil packs, and spark plugs. The car is unbelievably reliable.
I still have my 2014 Ford Fusion w/ a 2.5 Litre 4 cylinder engine.. 195,000 miles and Counting.. and Maan.. No complaints here.. Other than some Recall Repairs that are normal with any USA Car.. And Normal Maintenance.. This car has been a Warrior
A lot of people don't realize that the ford fusion hybrid system is a Toyota system. They are bargains if you can get a lower mileage car due to the Ford stigma.
I leased a 2011 Fusion with less than 50k miles and it had transmission slipping issues. Needless to say I didn't keep that long. From November 2013 to March 2014. I have had my 2004 Acura TL for almost 5 years now and with over 200k I've only replaced brakes, tires, an alternator, and a motor mount. And that's after someone hit a curb pretty hard with it before I bought it. No transmission issues, no leaving me stranded other than the alternator going out.
I own 2016 2.5L over 100k miles great engine, very simple engine I do the maintenance by myself and part are cheap , the car has some flaws but overall satisfied
My wife's 2013 with 2.5L Duratek had head gasket failure at 100K miles. The failure was such that oil was leaking into the cooling system, but no coolant in the oil. The car had been maintained up to this point with virtually no problems. I made the difficult decision to replace the HG as I did not want to buy a new vehicle, or search for a used replacement. Fingers crossed.
I would go for a 2.5 but they aren't very well equipped as they're limited to S and SE trims. I think the hybrid/engergi are the best options for reliability. I've heard some negative things about the transmission in the 2.7 Sport models, though that could be the result of people brake boosting a lot. I rented a hybrid and got 30mpg going up a mountain at 82mph. Something I don't think any other Ford could achieve.
Could you do a video on Ford Mustang 2.3 Ecoboost S550/ Focus RS? Some people says the 2.3 ecoboost engine blows up easily but others say it’s actually very reliable
The coolant thing happened to my 18 fusion around 64k miles. My warranty covered full replacement. Once they put the 19 model engine in it’s been solid. General Message of this video: CHANGE YOUR OIL for your engines to last.
I have the 2018 fusion se 1.5l ecoboost, you aswell? Mine is in the shop for a coolant leak with ce light, Ive heard alot about these coolant intrusion and mine isnt under ford warranty no more at 113000 miles.
own a 2017 with the 2.0t, bought it with 95k and approaching 120k miles, no major issues so far except purge valve, but the constant worry about coolant intrusion has made me not enjoy the car as much, add that I average 24.5 mpg, I should've been more patient and went with a hybrid model
the 2nd generation fusion actually came out in 2013 and ended in 2020 or 2021 and the 2010 - 2012 was a more like a facelift but it changed alot about the car.
I have 2014 ford fusion energi with 126k miles on it. I bought it with 100k. Only issue ive had its an electrical parasitic drain, just had to change the battery sensor. How often do you recommend changing coolant. also is it the same coolant for both engine and electric?
I Had a 2010, a 2016, and a 2017 fusions with the 2.5 power plants. And love them all. great reliable vehicles. And cheap to maintain. Glad I didn’t get the 2.0 power plant
I have a 2012 SEL with the 3.0 L direct injected V6. Full synthetic 5W 20 motor oil changes every 5000 miles, transmission services every 35,000 miles coolant flushes every five years with the Motorcraft gold, Royal purple, Max clean fuel system treatment every 5000 miles And with proper tire maintenance. I got 50,000 miles out of the original set. Car has been reliable as all heck, low on maintenance cost, and Pepe as hell with that i’ll be hitting 75,000 miles by the end of the year 3 L. By the way, the 3 L and the 3.5 L V6’s were not discussed in this video.
I got the 2017 se 2.5l with 130k miles and my mother has the 2.0l ecoboost with 100k. Not even a hiccup from either car. I just keep chaging the oil and air filters.
We just bought a 2020 fusion se with the 1.5l ecoboost engine. Now I am a bit worried. Car has 64k miles but still has limited warranty on the drivetrain for another ~2 years
2015 ford Fusion 1.5 engine. By far one of the best cars just have to keep up with regular maintenance. 202k miles on it and still driving. Oil changes are important and A MUST. If you have an issue on this car and have the time and knowledge to fix it yourself. DO IT YOURSELF. We in December 2024.
I have a 2014 Fusion with the 1.5. 120k miles. I've had it for just about four years now and it hasn't been too bad. But I suspect the coolant leak of death may finally be catching up. Mazda, here I come.
I have a 2011 and a 2017, both been pretty good, but the build quality on the 2011 is way better. the 2011 is a 2.4 I4 and the 2017 is a 2.0. Great all around but my 2017 isnt as comfy as my 2011 my 17 dash started warping and seats being terrible, computer issues on the 17 made my passenger window roll back down when it got to the top, fixed by dealer but still. speakers blew on the 17 a year after purchase, but overall the cars are good, but the 11 is built way better
I have a 2015 eco boost and after 6 months of driving it at 80k miles I started seeing white smoke and all type of shit and one day it just broke down now I’m wondering if I should fix it or sell it non running
I own a 2016 fusion with the 2.0 and awd... by far the biggest hunk of junk I've ever owned. It's a great looking car but i wouldn't recommend buying one.
@thelonglastexpert problems started after 60k mostly the emission stuff that's mostly "dealer only" parts. The radio also will randomly turn on after being parked and I've even had the seat lean back as I was driving down the highway.. however the worst was when I put it in park to grab something out of my truck to turn around and see it left with out me! Luckily I have a long driveway and I caught it before someone got hurt. Ford does have a recall for that now but says mine wasn't included yet it's doing the same exact thing. All this and I'm at 93k miles. I've always had ford's but the fusion isn't a good car... it's currently ripped apart in my driveway soon to be traded in. Guess it's still better than the 1.5 that randomly burns to the ground but not by much.
at the end of the video you mention the best version would be the 2.5 fwd is that the best option ? if so what year were you talking about ? thanks for you time
Any modern car is going to be good as long as it doesn't have one of these low-displacement turbo engines. No matter the manufacturer, they appear to be failing prematurely across the board. The 2.5L Duratec is a very good engine.
After our 2010 fusion, hated them. Throttle body replacement in the beginning, ac freezing up near the end with no solution for that. We had enough of it.
If I'll make a video about es 350 then it will be 3 min video 😂 it's just a very reliable car but if you like lexus then you would like to see my next episode for sure 😉
The 2.5 NA is the only engine to own in this car. I've owned three of them and they are awesome. Ecoboost is nothing but trouble. Stay away from all Ford Ecoboost cars or trucks!
The best engine for this car is the 2.5 in line 4 cylinder. They never should have discontinued it. My 2010 Fusion has 183,000 miles on it. Don’t listen to the dealer when they tell that you never have to change the transmission fluid. They just want you to buy another car. 😀😀😀😀
I just bought a 2017 ford fusion se 1.5l from the dealer in August, engine had all these issues after only 2 months. The car had 102,000 miles when i bought it. I wouldnt have gotten it if i knew about these issues. So right now its currently december and im getting a new engine right now. Thankfully i got a warranty on the car when i bought it and am making small payments. New engine is going to have 40k miles so i should be good. Its a shame because i like the car but man this engine is ass. First car too so i didnt know much next car i get will be better.
Fords use of open deck blocks with turbocharging is an invitation for trouble and failure. Also moving to wet belts instead of chains reduced reliability.
We had a 2015 and it was a real Turd. Traded it on on a 2020 Camry. Had nothing but problems with it. At 22k miles it had a cracked cylinder head in 3 places left us stranded. Then it never ran as good after warranty repair then all kinds of knick picky things went wrong you could no longer hook your phone up to it a part went bad in the radio FORD wanted $600 to fix. At 55k miles it had misfires and I finally said to hell with it. The 2020 Camry has been 100% better not one problem and we have had it 4 years now. What is worse ours had the supposedly bullet proof 2.5l engine. Not too bullet proof in our case and Ford would not warranty the repair they made. I will never give Ford another dime they can go out of business for all I care! We maintained it well too. Serviced transmission at 45k miles and stayed on the oil changes. Ford says the cracked head was a forge issue that got past the 3rd party that made them and Fords quality control so I guess we got one of those where quality was not job 1.
It all depends on the condition and how often this engine has been maintained (oil changes, coolant replacement, radiator cleaning). Yes, 60,000 miles is not a small mileage for this engine, but if it has been well-maintained, then it's generally worth considering. Before buying, check if there are any wet spots on the engine.
Just bought ford fusion hybrid 2016 SE 46k mileage. It took the vehicle 13 gallons for 400 miles which is equivalent to 31 mpg. Honestly, I am disappointed
Mine is a 2014 fusion. Possibly worst car I've ever owned. Driver's door flew open while turning at an intersection. Had to replace all 4 door latches, AC compressor clutch bolt fell off, valve cover gasket leaks uncontrollably, drivers side cv axle bushing inside the transmission was greatly worn (damaging the CV axle, axle seal, and leaking transmission fluid. Also, the transmission has slammed into reverse since I bought it at 20k miles. This all happened before 75k miles. For comparison, I have a Toyota Rav4 that I've only ever done maintenance work on. I will only buy Toyotas from now on.
My 2009 Ford Fusion 2.3 had 210k miles on it before it was totalled. Original engine and transmission. Changed engine oil every 3500 miles and trans oil every 30k miles. Best car I had.....even compared to a Toyota I have owned before.
Owner of a 2013 fusion here, man what a quality video, was thinking of buying a newer model fusion and this helps a ton, keep up the great work
thank you man👍🏻 any experience that you can share about your fusion?
@@thelonglastexpertYeah don’t get one

At 86K I flushed out the old orange coolant by doing multiple drain and fills until I had added nearly 3 gallons of the new Motorcraft yellow coolant (Ford stated they are totally safe to mix for a top off, drain and fill, or flush). Then I couldn't do the rear diff fluid myself because of a stripped drain plug (it's in a very tight spot, a torx socket won't fit because of a subframe bushing very close to it), a local shop freed up the bolt and changed the fluid for me and replaced it with a new bolt I got from Ford, $130 total. The only parts that failed were a purge valve which I replaced in a few minutes for $75 (rough idle after filling up with gas) and a rear wheel bearing at 62K miles as well, I had a shop do this for $450. The biggest problems by far with this car are the wheels, they're 19's and have 40% aspect ratio tires. You must keep them properly inflated and keep your alignment good or they'll wear fast. I've also had bent wheels which has been a pita. When I'm done with these tires I'm getting 18 inch wheels and 45% aspect ratio tires, also will upgrade to 245's over the 235's. If you live in the rust belt, the AWD is great in the snow and the car holds up well in salty areas. I don't know if this car was undercoated before I got it, but it was from Cleveland and has no rust at all. Ford did a very good job with this car, it's fast, very comfortable, and can get 30 mpg highway. One of the best cars I've ever used!

For the Ford, it'll need oil changes every 5K or sooner and trans and ptu fluid changes every 30K, but I've heard Honda transmissions aren't the best either long term. BMW that's a whole other animal 😂. Definitely gonna have more expensive parts and be much harder to work on. But drive all three, they're each cool in their own right
I have a 2014 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 EcoBoost. I have tried to keep up with maintenance as much as possible. Oil change every 5k miles, transmission fluid drain and fill every 15k miles or so. I first got it in 2020 and 3 months later the power steering went out. Replaced it and almost 2 years later it went out again, replaced it and 7 months later it went out, so I replaced it again and so far, it has not gone out (yet). I modified my Fusion which was fun and also made me not only keep up with but do my maintenance intervals sooner than normal. I have replaced the rear shocks and front struts with Koni Strt parts. Steeda front and rear sway bar, Steeda front tower brace, and CP-E Stage 2 rear motor mount. The vehicles suspension feels tight, and I love it, corners good and the chassis doesn't flex much. As for performance, I have put on a Steeda front mount intercooler, CP-E hot and cold side charge pipes, Turbosmart BPV, NGK Iridium IX spark plugs gapped at .026, JLT 3.0 oil separator, Mustang EcoBoost throttle body, CP-E 3" catted downpipe/cat back exhaust, Garrette Powermax Stage 1 turbo, XDI +35% high pressure fuel pump, XDI 2000CC fuel injectors and tuned on 93 octane from Unleashed Tuning. I am having an issue with the vehicle not running right. I got 2 check engine lights, a P008B Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure-Too High. So, I replaced the fuel pump in the fuel tank with another Motorcraft one and replaced the low fuel pressure sensor. the RPM needle is no longer dancing around while driving. But I still have that other CEL which is P00C6 Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low - Engine Cranking Bank 1. It takes many cranks to start up when the engine is cold, otherwise it will start up fine if it was running pretty recently. It is also misfiring intermittently and will have a massive misfire if you get on it and will take a few seconds to regain itself when the check engine light is flashing. I have ordered a new fuel rail pressure sensor which I am waiting on in the mail. When I replace that I am going to have my tuner take a look at the datalogs and see if he can get it running well. I sent in those aftermarket fuel injectors to XDI, they tested them and said they are in good condition, but I don't know. After installing them my car started having problems one week later. If all else fails, I am going to order brand new Motorcraft fuel injectors and see what happens. My money is kind of on the injectors being the issue, fingers crossed it is not the engine because I absolutely love my car and would hate to get rid of it.
I Owned a 2010 Ford Fusion 2.4 i4 non turbo non eco boost . Most reliable car I had owned. Bought used 38,000 miles and it had 289,000 when it was totaled in a crash. I did oil changes every 4000 with full synthetic 5w30. Ford stated “Lifetime” transmission fluid so it didn’t recommend a transmission fluid change, I changed transmission fluid every 30,000 miles with Valvoline Maxlife ATF . Coolant drain and fill every 50,000 miles same for brake fluid. “Lifetime fluid” ford projects lifetime do the transmission to be 100,000 so that they get repeat customers , designed to last then fail! 7000 mile changes designed to last just enough then fail. But if one does proper maintenance not the recommended maintenance, but proper maintenance and not get the ones with eco boost it is one of the most reliable vehicles out there !
I think even if you had an EcoBoost, with such maintenance, you would have driven your 300,000 miles on it as well. 😂
@@thelonglastexpert Don’t know if the turbo would have lasted I like the regular base engine 2.4 or 2.5 inline 4 cylinder that came on the base model S and sometimes in the SE. but yes with regular maintenance any vehicle should last longer
@@jorgehernandez8657 I don't think there was a 2.4 liter engine in these cars

Ive had my 2017 fusion sport since brand new. And even though i only have 30,000 miles on it it’s been pretty reliable so far. And its very fun to drive.

17-26
Wow, how so little mileage? You must not drive it much. Mine is a 2019 and has 30,100, which I thought was low.
I had a 2015 Fusion SE, non eco boost. It had almost 250,000 miles when the transmission went out. Before that, it was trouble free miles! I miss that car.
My 2014 fusion with the 2.0 vep Spanish built engine,has 195600 miles on it now, i change the oil every 6000 miles, with 5/30 dexos rated oil. Very little if any oil usage. I change my transmission fluid 4 quarts every 30000 miles, with Valvoline lv fluid, and it shifts perfectly .. even when i use the paddles. spark plugs everywhere 2 years, air filter every 2 years. I uprated my suspension with adjustable coil overs and adjustable dampners, lower the car 30 mm, it's not 'slammed' to the ground like a lot of idiots do their cars. Has a very nice ride, and with polyurethane sway bar bushings, it handles really well, enough to give some audis and bmws a headache on twisty back roads
235/45/18 Goodyear euro LS tires have great grip, and are not wearing out all that fast., great car, yo bad Ford went stupid and tell us all, we need to drive SUVs. I went to china last year, and drove the new fusion they have and we dont, fantastic car
up to 199400 miles now.. due for a transmission fluid change..i use valvoline lv oil.. works great..i changed out the spark plugs over the summer..the old plugs were good looking still with 35000 mile on them
I wish the previous generations were included. Was still a very good and informative video.
thank you man!
I have a 2014 Hybrid model that has 234,000 miles. I have only swapped the wheel bearings on it and the rear camera.
what oil are you using? and what interval did you change trans oil
im curious too have you changed the transmission fluid?
energy or regular hybrid?
I have a 2.5l ford fusion bought it at 54k miles and now has 81k miles so far ao good on the engine. I change the engine oil every 3k miles and always rides smooth.
3k miles?! you might be spending more money on oil then gas😂 good maintenance is the key👍🏻
MY2018 Fusion Energi owner and honestly outside of the small trunk, the car is great. Almost no unscheduled service visits & annual oil changes, also a lifetime of 2.8L/100km use with daily ev charging.
I might as well throw my hat in the ring looking at everyone's fusion stories. I currently own a 2016 SE hybrid with 153k miles (purchased at 20k miles in 2018 due to it being a fleet vehicle before me) and do my own maintenance. So far the only issue I've had was a failed ABS sensor. I've kept up with mostly everything (basically i haven't touched the transmission yet 😅) from oil changes, spark plug swaps, ignition coils since I was in there and i was at 130k miles, and a few other things. This car has treated me very well. The only thing I'm sad about is having to trade it in soon for a bigger vehicle for the sake of space due to a new addition of a family member (it's a boy). I'd recommend this car but like this video says, low mileage with good history and if you're able to keep up with the maintenance
I have a 2013 fusion se with the 1.6 with 211k miles on it and it has been wrecked twice (previous owner) and it still runs great with pretty much just regular maintenance as well as new evap valves earlier this year it also would randomly go into limp mode for about a week which ended up just being a dirty mass flow sensor lmao
2014 fusion se ecoboost 2.0 owner here. 150k miles. No problems whatsoever. A little bit of turbo lag and you can tell second gear is getting real worn. Probably gonna have to throw a trans at it around 200k miles but besides that, runs like a champ. 200k miles and only a transmission, you can’t really ask for more these days
2017 Fusion Hybrid here. Not the energi.
Been using 0w20 full synthetic every 3k-5k ish miles. At 141k miles so far without any problems. I haven’t had the transmission serviced, which I intend to have done as soon as I can afford it. After watching this, I’m definitely keeping mine under 80 mph, staying in the slow right lane from now on at 70mph or lower. Very interesting to learn about the electric pump on the transmissions only on energi hybrids, and how the cooling worked at higher speeds
There's a few youtube vid on how to service the transmission. It's actually very simple. If you change your own oil then the transmission fluid change isn't much more difficult. 👍🏻
I miss my fusion but the wifey wanted something with more features (we had an SE trim) so was traded it on a slightly newer Camry XSE. I love the Camry and it is definitely a better car in nearly every aspect besides ride quality. Somehow the fusion suspension was soft and comfortable even over rough roads while still handling exceptionally well for a “family sedan” ! Now, after figuring out that they made a sport edition of the fusion, I might have to look for one cause that sounds like something I would really enjoy.
2017 Fusion Energi SE over 180,000 kms. Best car I ever owned. Not much fixing only had to replace lead acid batteries once. Was over $600 Cdn but used a Ford $1000 gift card given to me by dealership during sale of car. Brakes are still original because car uses electric motor to stop and regenerate electricity. Due for some major maintenance like CVT oil replacement, wheel bearing due to pot hole, just changed original tires last year with Nokian tires excellent tires. I would be happy for another 180,000 kms.
I’ve got a 2014 2.0 fwd with 156k still going strong no issues at all I put 60k+ on in one year I got the car at 95k. Only thing is transmission is starting to go and I plan on replacing and doing some performance mods to it but I’m very surprised how far it’s gone with the symptoms it has and the fact that I drive it like a hellcat😂just took it to Virginia from upstate ny and she did perfect
People I have a Ford Fusion Hybrid SE 2017 I bought with 125k is now 160k . One and half years ago .
The best purchase ever did .
Not a significant problem or not a real problem at all .
Just regular maintenance
I’m planning on using it till the end it’s being a really good car , the best I drive , and 40 mpg is my avg . $3.0 is the gallon these days I can fill up the tank 35 bucks and ride it for 550 miles. .
Great car really . Peace out u all . Stop the war love your brother . ❤
I bought a 2019 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid ( Fancy Ford Fusion ) new and put all the miles on it. Schaeffers synthetic oil from 1800 miles, transmission serviced every 50k or so. The car has 157k and is the best I've had so far.
I had the 2013 Hybrid for a couple years. It averaged 48 mpg so I didn't understand all the fuss. I remember getting that upgrade and actually got a few PCM upgrades. Anyway it ran flawlessly for those couple years before I got a 2015 Mustang GT 50th LE
Bought the 2.5 for a reason in 2020 ... expect a long life from it
Really great video ! Thank you!
happy that you find it useful!
I own a 2015 Lincoln MKZ hybrid which is the upscale version of the Fusion. The MKZ has 202k miles and has had almost no repairs needed other than oil/air filter changes, coil packs, and spark plugs. The car is unbelievably reliable.
that's impressive!
Toyota guts!
I got the 2.5 duratec,,,runs like a top
i have a 2016 se 2.5 and its at 168k miles and ive never had an issue other than a rodent chewing threw the injector wires !! lol
I think that's because the insulation was soy based rather than plastic. Heard of it happening in other cars.
I got a 2016 fusion SE I'm at 200,000 miles .......no issues ... always use mobil 1 oil and always use higher grade gas , change out spark plugs
nice man, with this maintenance it will last long!
I still have my 2014 Ford Fusion w/ a 2.5 Litre 4 cylinder engine.. 195,000 miles and Counting.. and Maan.. No complaints here.. Other than some Recall Repairs that are normal with any USA Car.. And Normal Maintenance.. This car has been a Warrior
Great choice 👍🏻 thx for your comment!
I own a 2015 Fusion SE Hybrid,. It has been a wonderful car. No mechanical issues
How many miles does it have now thinking about buying a 2020
A lot of people don't realize that the ford fusion hybrid system is a Toyota system. They are bargains if you can get a lower mileage car due to the Ford stigma.
I leased a 2011 Fusion with less than 50k miles and it had transmission slipping issues. Needless to say I didn't keep that long. From November 2013 to March 2014. I have had my 2004 Acura TL for almost 5 years now and with over 200k I've only replaced brakes, tires, an alternator, and a motor mount. And that's after someone hit a curb pretty hard with it before I bought it. No transmission issues, no leaving me stranded other than the alternator going out.
I own 2016 2.5L over 100k miles great engine, very simple engine I do the maintenance by myself and part are cheap , the car has some flaws but overall satisfied
Halfway through the video and yea this guy def knows what he's talking about. Very useful resource!
My wife's 2013 with 2.5L Duratek had head gasket failure at 100K miles. The failure was such that oil was leaking into the cooling system, but no coolant in the oil. The car had been maintained up to this point with virtually no problems. I made the difficult decision to replace the HG as I did not want to buy a new vehicle, or search for a used replacement. Fingers crossed.
unfortunately it can happen with this engine but overall it's a great motor.
I would go for a 2.5 but they aren't very well equipped as they're limited to S and SE trims. I think the hybrid/engergi are the best options for reliability. I've heard some negative things about the transmission in the 2.7 Sport models, though that could be the result of people brake boosting a lot. I rented a hybrid and got 30mpg going up a mountain at 82mph. Something I don't think any other Ford could achieve.
It would be awesome to see a video on Fords 3.5 Ecoboost.
Could you do a video on Ford Mustang 2.3 Ecoboost S550/ Focus RS? Some people says the 2.3 ecoboost engine blows up easily but others say it’s actually very reliable
There's definitely going to be a video about this engine on the channel, but a little later.
@@thelonglastexpert Nice, already subscribed and looking forward to it!
This would be a good idea for a series...How Reliable is....(12'Camry, 06'RAV4...)
The coolant thing happened to my 18 fusion around 64k miles. My warranty covered full replacement. Once they put the 19 model engine in it’s been solid. General Message of this video: CHANGE YOUR OIL for your engines to last.
I have the 2018 fusion se 1.5l ecoboost, you aswell? Mine is in the shop for a coolant leak with ce light, Ive heard alot about these coolant intrusion and mine isnt under ford warranty no more at 113000 miles.
own a 2017 with the 2.0t, bought it with 95k and approaching 120k miles, no major issues so far except purge valve, but the constant worry about coolant intrusion has made me not enjoy the car as much, add that I average 24.5 mpg, I should've been more patient and went with a hybrid model
the 2nd generation fusion actually came out in 2013 and ended in 2020 or 2021 and the 2010 - 2012 was a more like a facelift but it changed alot about the car.
I have 2014 ford fusion energi with 126k miles on it. I bought it with 100k. Only issue ive had its an electrical parasitic drain, just had to change the battery sensor. How often do you recommend changing coolant. also is it the same coolant for both engine and electric?
I'm looking at a 2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid are the transmissions in them any good or are they the same
I have the 2018 plug-in hybrid!
7 years later….great car!
For the record, the fusion got the gen 2 2.0 starting in 2017. Ford did start putting the gen 2 in other vehicles in 2016 though
I Had a 2010, a 2016, and a 2017 fusions with the 2.5 power plants. And love them all. great reliable vehicles. And cheap to maintain. Glad I didn’t get the 2.0 power plant

If the engine was produced after 04/2019 you should have the updated motor. Mine has been very solid, and a pleasure to drive.
2015 ford Fusion 1.5 engine. By far one of the best cars just have to keep up with regular maintenance. 202k miles on it and still driving. Oil changes are important and A MUST. If you have an issue on this car and have the time and knowledge to fix it yourself. DO IT YOURSELF. We in December 2024.

@thelonglastexpert problems started after 60k mostly the emission stuff that's mostly "dealer only" parts. The radio also will randomly turn on after being parked and I've even had the seat lean back as I was driving down the highway.. however the worst was when I put it in park to grab something out of my truck to turn around and see it left with out me! Luckily I have a long driveway and I caught it before someone got hurt. Ford does have a recall for that now but says mine wasn't included yet it's doing the same exact thing. All this and I'm at 93k miles. I've always had ford's but the fusion isn't a good car... it's currently ripped apart in my driveway soon to be traded in.
Guess it's still better than the 1.5 that randomly burns to the ground but not by much.

Any modern car is going to be good as long as it doesn't have one of these low-displacement turbo engines. No matter the manufacturer, they appear to be failing prematurely across the board. The 2.5L Duratec is a very good engine.
After our 2010 fusion, hated them. Throttle body replacement in the beginning, ac freezing up near the end with no solution for that. We had enough of it.

yeah man those 1.5 are too weak 🤦🏻♂️
Fords use of open deck blocks with turbocharging is an invitation for trouble and failure. Also moving to wet belts instead of chains reduced reliability.
We had a 2015 and it was a real Turd. Traded it on on a 2020 Camry. Had nothing but problems with it. At 22k miles it had a cracked cylinder head in 3 places left us stranded. Then it never ran as good after warranty repair then all kinds of knick picky things went wrong you could no longer hook your phone up to it a part went bad in the radio FORD wanted $600 to fix. At 55k miles it had misfires and I finally said to hell with it. The 2020 Camry has been 100% better not one problem and we have had it 4 years now. What is worse ours had the supposedly bullet proof 2.5l engine. Not too bullet proof in our case and Ford would not warranty the repair they made. I will never give Ford another dime they can go out of business for all I care! We maintained it well too. Serviced transmission at 45k miles and stayed on the oil changes. Ford says the cracked head was a forge issue that got past the 3rd party that made them and Fords quality control so I guess we got one of those where quality was not job 1.
I got a 2019 1.5 liter ecoboost with 60k miles on it
Should i keep it or exchanged it
Im about to pick up tomorrow
Help pleaseeeee!
It all depends on the condition and how often this engine has been maintained (oil changes, coolant replacement, radiator cleaning). Yes, 60,000 miles is not a small mileage for this engine, but if it has been well-maintained, then it's generally worth considering. Before buying, check if there are any wet spots on the engine.

Mine has 155k and has never been in the shop
Mine is a 2014 fusion. Possibly worst car I've ever owned. Driver's door flew open while turning at an intersection. Had to replace all 4 door latches, AC compressor clutch bolt fell off, valve cover gasket leaks uncontrollably, drivers side cv axle bushing inside the transmission was greatly worn (damaging the CV axle, axle seal, and leaking transmission fluid. Also, the transmission has slammed into reverse since I bought it at 20k miles. This all happened before 75k miles.
For comparison, I have a Toyota Rav4 that I've only ever done maintenance work on. I will only buy Toyotas from now on.
