  3. It could be a faulty BLIS sensor. I had one of mine go bad due to a bad splice in the wiring. It was repaired under warranty.

    Allen - I'm just in shock with what the fire department tried to pull!! Just WOW!!
  6. The tire shine product I use is called Tire Shine Plus from CroftgateUSA. It contains zero petroleum solvents, zero silicon, no listed hazardous materials, no VOC's and 100% eco-responsible. Depending on your tastes, you can have it as glossy as you want, or have a matte like finish. Best of all, it does not sling and will not harm the finish or paint on your vehicle.

    You're welcome! Are you kidding me? You got the ticket? What's that about? I'm so glad you won your case!

    I'd have to say "yes", it's mandatory. Here's why based on a what a local attorney stated: "You need to go to court because you are what is called the Complaining Witness. Because the police officer was not there and did not see the accident, he cannot testify to what the defendant has done or failed to do. You will need to be present in order to prove the State's case against the driver. Without you, the case will be dismissed or a not-guilty will likely be entered if the other driver decides to plead not guilty to the charges..."

    The girl is currently 18 year old and her mom did say that they recently bought the car. I'm sure I'll find out next month in court what she'll get. Thanks for the info! I'll check it out.

    Thank you! A dashcam is definitely going to be an investment. Which one do you have? I'm friends with Robert on FB. I'll ping him there. At the accident scene, hearing the police officer tell me that she or her mom could not provide proof of insurance added further insult to injury. I was very happy to hear that they were covered by State Farm and even more so that she took responsibility in causing the accident. Court date is 7/21 and her lack of proof of insurance ticket will be thrown out. The "improper left turn" ticket will still stand. And the fact that she caused the accident, it'll be interesting to see what the outcome will be.

    Car Accident

    Thank you drolds1. My apologies as I'm not a moderator. I did a copy and paste from my post over at the Ford Fusion Club forum, where I am a moderator there. I wouldn't mind being a moderator here in this forum, if it's allowed. I've edited my post. Here's what happened - the Honda Accord driver made a left turn as I entered the intersection. We both had the green light and she was stopped as I approached as she had to have seen me coming. Apparently, she was "distracted" by "looking down", more than likely at her phone, which she said to my kids while she crying and apologizing. When the police officer asked her what happened, all she could say was "I don't know..." On top of it all, when asked to provide proof of insurance, she didn't have it and neither did her mom, who arrived after the accident happened. Her mom is the registered owner of the Accord. Last Friday late afternoon, I received a phone call from my insurance (State Farm) and they informed me that the girl who caused the accident is covered by them and has accepted 100% responsibility for causing the accident. I will be getting my $250 deductible back. Also, the following purchase was made last Friday night:

    Car Accident

    It was a sad day on June 9th, 2016, when I was involved in a car accident. Unfortunately, my 2012 Sport was totaled out due to the extent of the damage and cost to repair it. You may have seen my post on the Facebook Fusion groups. Was able to walk away with only minor injuries. The safety features did an awesome job - Built Ford Tough!! The replacement will definitely be another Ford! I will stay and support the community. Here's the video and pics: At the scene: Pictures taken the next day at the yard: This is the license plate and bracket from the other car: The offending Honda Accord and my old Sport in the background: I no longer have the car so there's nothing for sale or to part out.
  15. My understanding is that the new MKZ AWD model gets the 3.0L TT V6, the FWD model gets the 2.7L TT V6 and the base model gets the 2.0L EB 4-cyl.
