“On my 2007 Ford Fusion which I have owned since 2015, whether stationary or in motion the sun visors will not stay in position and will droop, causing road visibility issues, making it difficult to see the road or block the sun properly. It has been an issue since the car was purchased.”
NHTSA complaint #11257307, filed 2019-09, 84,500 miles“Driving to work on date mentioned sounded like a shot gun went off in the car, my rear window shattered! I paid $285.00 to have it replaced! Upon removal of shattered glass the repairman noticed that my rear defroster electrical connection had melted and therefore was the culprit! It overheated and shattered the rear window!”
NHTSA complaint #10713676, filed 2015-04, 85,240 miles“As I approached a green traffic, the sun was in my eyes, so I moved the sun visor down so the sun was blocked but I could still see the traffic light. When I let go of it, it would not stay up against the windshield and hung straight down, blocking the traffic light. If it had turned red, I never would have know it. I had to drive with one had holding up the visor and one hand on the steering wheel. When I took my car in to the dealership I told them that the visor has never stayed up except against the car ceiling and we both looked at a 2008 model, which works fine. …”
NHTSA complaint #10258282, filed 2009-02, 3,000 miles“Since I bought this car, streaks appear on the windows when you open and close them. I asked the dealer about this during an oil change and showed him first hand how the window was spotless and then I lowered it and raised it and it had vertical streaks from one side to the other. He told me he had heard this from other Fusion owners and unless Ford issued a recall that it could get costly to have it fixed. …”
NHTSA complaint #10436233, filed 2011-11“Driver's side interior door handle broke. This is a safety issue. If I were needing to exit the vehicle in a hurry, I could not. If I were not able to roll down the power window, I would not be able to open the door from the inside.”
