NHTSA complaint #11023757, filed 2017-09, 41,000 miles“We just purchased the car yesterday and so far we are having 2 issues. The first is the shifting of the gears when driving between first and second which can be rough. It feels like downshifting more than speed pick up. Also we were driving on the highway and our rear passenger tire blew out just like that and we nearly lost control of the vehicle. Very scary. Took the vehicle back to Ford to look into.”
NHTSA complaint #10783121, filed 2015-10, 31,500 miles“Factory oem goodyear eagle ls-2s claim to be all season.

While experiencing a flat tire I had two road service calls come to remove the flat tire with my spare without success as their lug wrenches could not remove any including all twenty wheel lug nuts. I had to have car towed to Ford dealership where I was informed that this is a common occurrence with Fusion lug nuts. Doing an internet web search, I found that this indeed is a unknown common problem!”
