  1. Decided to order some wheel skins for my OEM rims. I actually like OEMs but was I mulling getting high end blackout rims however I unsure.. Came across these wheel skins online and decided to give them a try first since its not sinking a ton of money into new rims and rubbers. Fits right over your OEM. Installation was fast and easy. Doesn't leave a lip like some of the others out there. Going to see how long the last and go from there.. Next improvement... I have a wrap guy going to work his magic Friday. 2016 FFH - original owner and still in love with this car...
  2. So about 60 days ago, I had to change the rear brakes and the RR rotor. The pads on the RR wore down to the metal without any squealer warning, and by the time I caught it the rotor was beyond turning. So I changed that rotor and all rear brakes. When I did, I noticed the RL pads were still fairly new. I assumed this was due to the Buy Here Pay Here dealership I had purchased my 2008 Fusion SE from had skimped to save money and only replaced the RL pads. I went ahead and replaced the pads on both sides so they would be even. Yesterday, I noticed a grinding similar to before so I checked, and the RR was again down to metal with no squealer warning. I checked the RL and they are practically new, very little wear. FL and FR brakes are also still good, have not had to replace them since purchase. Doing some research, I've seen a number of things it could be, from a stuck caliper to air in the brake lines to a seized parking brake. Anyone got a solid lead as to what would cause this or how to figure it out without replacing one thing at a time until it stops? That could get expensive replacing good parts until i finally get to the bad one.
  3. Ok, so I am new here and figured I would start out with a issue I have run into with my 2011 Ford Fusion SE. So I bought my 2011 about a year and a few months ago and it is by far the best car I have ever owned. it was re-inspected right after buying it and all was good. So other then finding out my back caliper was bad 3 months in no issues and honestly it wants that hard to replace. Fast forward to today ... well a month or so ago. (don't peg me on the time I don't have a lot of cash to spare and I need bill paid first and no I am not driving it atm) So I go get it inspected and everything passes except the front rotors and front brakes! Yay me! I have done front brakes before about 30 times over the years. This is the first time on my fusion so I do a couple youtube video checks and noticed the need for the torque driver so I grabbed one and was good to go. Ok so they say rotors were rusted a bit and brakes needed to be replaced, no biggie. LIARS!! Rotors were rusted solid on to the spindle so 3 hours later and a sore shoulder plus hammer and rust penetrating oil rotor one is off and replaced. Jump to the next day same this for the other side except the torque was screwed up before so add in a power drill and a metal bit later that screw is removed. Add on top 4 hours later and again said sore shoulder and penetrating oil second one is off and rotor is replaced and brakes done. I back out of friends garage a little grinding but that's normal usually disappears in like 3 minutes max. So 2 weeks later and a lot of looking on my part and that grinding is still there and it is eating into the rotor little by little. HELP!! I can only think Calipers but odd and hell that 2 working calipers stopped working. HELP!!
  4. Hey guys. I just purchased a 2014 Ford Fusion SE from a dealer a month ago with 9700 miles. The dealer put on new pads without machining the rotors and that resulted in some wicked pulsation when braking. I had the dealer cover the repairs two weeks ago. Just a few days ago, I'm starting to get crunching, grinding sounds when braking slowly, like pulling up to a stop sign or into a parking spot. It's coming from the rear tires, not sure which side. The rotors have a sharp edge on the outside smaller rim and the tire hub caps have black dust all over them. I'd like to figure this out once and for all before trying to return it as a lemon. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! Stay classy fusion drivers.

  6. 2013 Fusion just over 2 yrs old 16,000 mi, took it in due to noise on driver side rear. They tell me my brakes are "caked with salt" and that all 4 brakes need to be replaced. He said that he (meaning Ford) would cover the cost of replacing the front but that I would have to pay for the rear. I live in Florida, drive little and easy. Didn't believe him so I told him I was going to get a second opinion from my old mechanic. He said fine "He'll see, he'll see that they are CAKED with salt" and then added "he'd seen worse but these were really bad ". My old mechanic takes off the wheels and there is nothing, no salt at all. And then I noticed on the "works package" oil change report that the mechanic marked that my front pads are at 7 mm. Would there be any reason to replace those, and what kind of mileage are others getting?
  7. I've had my 2013 Fusion for 2 years and 2 weeks, only 16k miles, yet I just took it in due to noise on driver side rear...they said the rotors and pads need to be replaced on both rear. Anyone ever heard of this?
  8. I've been looking into replacing the stock brake rotors with really good ones. Even though they're really expensive, the ones made by EBC Brakes seem like the best out there. I'll probably buy them one at a time, but I want to know which model number to buy? Their website isn't that helpful when it comes to matching cars to brakes parts. I've also thought about buying Baer rotors... Thanks in advance. -- Cush 2013 Titanium Fusion 2.0 Ecoboost (replaced reverse lights with LEDs and horns with a PIAA 400/500mhz pair)
