  1. Found a back seat from online for $300 shipped. Just replaced the 60 side of the seat. The fabric all matches it was a easy job.
  2. Will my factory harness work with the Platinum/Titanium headlights? Since mine doesn't have the LED strip will my harness give power to the light?
  3. I have a 17 Fusion with halogen headlights without led signature strip. One of my headlights is scuffed badly that cannot be repaired. I am wanting to buy some aftermarket headlights that will be a direct plug and play. I want a led signature strip and maybe LED beams. Any suggestions on what brand. Don't see many options online.
  4. I have a 17 with halogen bulbs. I ordered a set of Lasfit LEDs for high and low beams and pretty excited to install them since I have good experience with this brand. Well they don't fit, the socket is correct and the plug but the bulb itself wont go into the headlight assembly. It has a fan on the LED bulb preventing this. What other 6k LED bulbs worth while using that will fit the fusion? I am willing to pay for good bulbs since these cost $130 per set. Thanks
  5. Bought a used 17 Fusion with 2.5L with 23k miles. Didn't notice a rough idle at test drive. The next day while using the AC in gear it vibrates more than desired. Turn the AC off it quits vibrating, put the car in neutral or park with the AC on it quits vibrating. Noticed my RPM is around 700. I believe it needs to be at 1000 RPM for the motor to have enough power to run the AC and the torque converter. Is there a way for me to raise it? I don't believe it's motor mounts or trans mount due to the low mileage. Any advice?
  6. I have a 17 S model which does not have any fog lights. There are plastic pieces there now. I assume there is no wiring and pig tails plug to add fog lights. Does anyone suggest which kit I get to add some. I have seen a few kits on eBay and I'm sure you guys know what's good and what's not. I also want to wire it without a switch. I think I want them to come on when the headlights are on or accent light. Thanks
  7. Yes there is no rear armrest period. We didn't know this till after we bought and got it home. So I would have to replace the 60 side of the seat with a SE trim. I figured someone else has done this and added cup holders with a aftermarket way. Thanks.
  8. Thanks for your help. The dealer misinformation us and I thought this was right what you are saying. Thank you again
  9. Does the 17 Fusion S package have fobless entry. What I mean can you keep your fob in your pocket and will the car unlock when touch the handle and lock when walk away. Can't find any answers online. Thanks
  10. We just bought a 17 S trim and realized when after we bought that it does not have a rear console with cup holders. How can I add cup holders has others added cup holders, I'm sure someone has been in this situation before.
  11. I purchased the quick struts for the fusion. Upon first look they seem great. Nice finish they look very similar besides the dust boot and bump stop. I was pretty excited to see how they perform. After install I went down the road to try some bumps and some speed bumps to see how nice the ride is. Well I must I am very disappointed, they ride terrible. They are extremely noisy, It sounds like the strut rod is smacking inside the strut mount. My worn out stock struts, springs and mounts were tons quieter. Also monroe quick struts raised the front end around 2 inches. I guess I need to take them back out and try to get a refund since I am not settling for this ride. Heads up they suck
  12. Not looking for anything performance wise, just daily driver. Im not worried about their strut performance or durability but more so upon their strut mounts and spring quality. I didnt know if the gauge of steel was the same and ride height. Also I didnt want crappy strut mounts and bearings what will make noises shortly after.
  13. Update: I have cleaned my MAF sensor and throttle body with the proper cleaners. The throttle body was gunky, the MAF sensor look perfectly clean but cleaned it regardless. After using MAF sensor cleaner on it and letting it dry while I cleaned the throttle body with throttle body cleaner, I had some strange issues. Started the car back up and it had a rough idle then smoothed out. Then I decide to rev on it a bit, after I hard rev when the motor is idling down it pulses between 2000 rpm to 2500 rpm for a few seconds. It does this every time now. But the car still drives the same, it still has its laggy feel when it is trying to get to highways speed. Was wondering if I should bite the bullet and replace all of the ignition coils and plugs. If this doesnt solve them problem at least that could be some preventative maintenance. Is there any coils that are just as good as oem but at a lower cost??
  14. I will take your advice on your air filter. I will also clean the MAF sensor. Yes it does loose power during a load. No the coils have never been changed. The plugs are not that old and they are OEM plugs and are in good shape with correct gap. Thank you
  15. Also something else to think about is trying to knock out all suspension compents ad you can due to alignment. Would hate to pay for another alignment after you replace the ball joints and realize soon after you have a bad tie rod or strut. Food for thought
  16. I have 175k on my 2010 fusion. My struts are gone. I need to replace them. I haven't noticed any torn ball joints on mine but should look into myself. At my milage all suspension compents are stock which tells me it lasted well and should invest in oem parts again since we are keeping the car till she dies. But to answer your question with bad ball joints will cause tire wear. I have had issues with a caravan which had bad ball joints constantly also and I went through tires often with that vehicle. The caravan did last 370k as you can tell we keep them till they die.
  17. From rockauto.com and monroe.com both state they have quick struts for my vehicle. I wanted to see if they quality was there.
  18. Sorry let me clarify. I had this issue before and after the the filter was cleaned. I also remember there was a recall that was done towards the throttle body.
  19. I just cleaned the kn air filter when I first dealt with this issue. I will look into fuel filter.
  20. Looking to replace my suspension in my 2010 Ford Fusion. The vehicle has 175,000 miles and it is past due. The strut mounts are making some noises over bumps. I know replacing struts are a huge pain due to the spring needed to be compressed. Wondering to save time and money are the monroe quick strut option worth trying? Are they OEM quality or a cheaper grade? Will the ride quality be the same? Too many questions to ask but hoping a fellow owner has tried them and let me know. Thanks
  21. I have a 2010 Ford Fusion 2.5L which has 175,000 miles on her. I have had the spark plugs changed around 30k ago. Its been a great car but now I have the random issue of the car not accelerating normally. It feels like it has a small amount of jerking while accelerating normally to reach highways speeds. It seems like it has full power then it loses power then gains it again. But what irritates me that it randomly does it and I cant replicate the issue. So If I pay a shop to find the issue it will be very unlikely they will find it. I dont want to waste my time or theirs. Would hooking it up to a computer will find my issue if it does have a ignition miss? I am sorta lost here and dont want to waste money on more spark plugs or coils if this doesnt fix my issue. I dont want to throw parts at it and hoping to fix it. Thanks
  22. I already did what you suggested. They just looked at me and said how can you prove we did this, as if I was taking it to someone else just after it was changed. Their excuse was it was already like that. The oil filter panel is missing and no screws there also. The reason why the act like this which I assume is they are the only Ford dealer within 200 miles, so they think they are above the law. Their review on Yelp is terrible so people already know their customer service. We went there for the assurance to keep the warranty but since the warranty is gone we will be taking it some where else or I am going to start doing it myself. The reason why we didnt do it before besides the warranty aspect is they only charged $30 for an oil change and tire rotation. I checked out Fordparts.com they do not list the parts I need. I also searched by part numbers and it still does not show. This website is useless. I dont want to drive over 200 miles to the nearest dealer to order parts and drive 200 miles back again to pick them up. I rather just find a good website and just order what I need and pay shipping.
  23. Not much there. So basically besides what I am already doing just change fluids. I was wondering when the suspension components need to be service. I dont know the average life of them on this vehicle.
  24. My wifes 2010 2.5l auto is getting ready to hit 150k miles. I know its a lot! We are wanting to do a check up on the car. I know I want to replace the brake pads. Anything else we should look into at the mile marker??? What is the choice of brake pads I need to look for? Any help and direction would be great. Thanks
  25. We always take our Fusion to the Ford dealer local to us. Sad to say thier customer service is lacking. The wife took it down there and when she came home I noticed that the under plastic linning was just dangling. So I crawled under and noticed she was missing over 15 screws and to top it off the plastic linning that covers the filter which looks like a circle was also missing. So I gave them a call and the gave me the run around of course. I went in to price the parts for replacement. The service counter guys are complete dicks because he quoted that I cant just order 15 screws, I would have to order a complete set which is 100. WTF am I going to do with 100 screws. I was so mad I stormed out and didnt even bother pricing out the other part. They also state their policy that they can not give part numbers out. So does anyone know what part numbers I need to fix this silly matter. Thanks
