Hey guys, 08 ford fusion 5-speed. In the last year, i have replaced both front struts (twice), both sway bar links (twice) and the outer tie rods. I also replaced the strut mounts with brand new units both times. I put monroe sensa tracs on the first time and started to get a "clunking" noise, i took it to get an inspection where i was told everything is tight and that it is the nature of the Monroe struts. I did some research and found that KYB struts are OEM so after some time and gradual increase to the "clunking" noise, i installed KYB struts. Both times i replaced the sway bar links for good measure. Now that i have the KYB struts it was nice and quiet for almost 2 weeks, now i get a "rattle" noise without a lot of suspension travel, just a small bumb at low speed all the way up to faster speeds, same "rattle" I took it again this morning for an inspection and was told that everything is tight. I have physically checked every bolt, bushing and component in the front end and am now at a loss... Any and all help would be substantially appreciated. Thanks

2014 Fusion Titanium Along the perimeter of the front windshield from about 1-2mm from the edge, there are tiny bubbles that will not disappear or fade away in dry conditions. It doesn't matter if it is hot or cold. I tried wedging a microfiber rag in the small crevice to see if it is a liquid and try to soak it up to no avail. It is very noticeable. It seems that the windshield is delaminating somewhat and causing this issue. No, it doesn't interfere with my driving, but is an eyesore when viewed from the outside. Has anyone else had this occur? I cant seem to find much information other than large bubbles in the middle of the windshield from older model fords that are not fusions. I guess the next oil change at the dealership will clue me in while its still under warranty. http://www.glassbytes.com/2014/01/nhtsa-and-ford-recall-vehicles-for-windshield-bubbling/ Im out of town without my trusty steed today. I will try to get a picture or two to show what I am talking about this week. Buzz -
Hey all, So, I am having some odd vibration and clicking sounds in my 2010 Fusion and hopefully someone can shed some light. I have a 2010 fusion with about 100,000 miles on it. For about a week or so now, every time i turned left or right (mostly all the way), I would hear an almost clicking like sound coming from the front as i would drive off. Once I straightened out, the sound went away. I do not notice it any time after that. Yesterday though when i was driving down I75, my car would start to like shake or like be bumpy, or like a thumping sound, (not sure how to describe it) if i turned my steering wheel ever so slightly to the right, in one specific spot actually. If I kept it a straight, turned left or moved the wheel left, it would go away. Actually it would go away if i turned or moved the steering wheel even more to the right, there was this spot that if ever just touched my wheel right it would like vibrate and almost feel like a bumpy road. It would be worse at faster speeds. Do not really notice it in city driving. Has anyone experienced this? Are the two matters related? Sorry for the terrible description, but I don't know how to better describe it. Any advice or input it always appreciated.
