Good day folks! I have a question regarding my brothers Fusion. He just changed his tires and his alignment got refused as his right lower control arm is shot (i assume the inner bushing went to hell). Firstly, does anyone have a write up on how to do it? As I understand the procedure is different in 2013+ Fusions compared to the older platform shared with the Mazda6. Secondly, other than calling a dealer to be certain, there are two part numbers that according to part websites fit: GS7Z-3078-B and GS7Z-3078-A . Any difference between the two? Thank you for your help, Odi

Do not use Magic Eraser or alcohol wipes on your new Ford interior! I saw a small yellow paint mark on my dash (must have been paint marker from the factory) and decided to try a Magic Eraser to remove it... really dumb idea. After lightly using the Magic Eraser, the paint was gone. But in its place was a nice shiny spot on my matte charcoal dash. I tried removing it with soap and warm water, Maguire's interior cleaners, and baby wipes, none of them worked to remove the shine. So... I decided to try some ideas to remove the shine that I found online. So on a spot that can not normally be seen (on the door panel inside the door jamb) I tried a lens cleaning wipe (not sure if it is the same as a 70% alcohol wipe)... another big mistake. The lens wipe made the finish all white and actually started to remove the finish of the vinyl/rubber (not quite sure what the finish really is). Maguire's seemed to help get some of the matte charcoal finish back, but I think the damage is already done. So needless to say, I have decided to live with the shiny spot on my dash and to not mess with it any more... live and learn.
