Used 2012 Ford Fusion for Sale near North Cowichan, BC

Ive driven this car about a thousand miles since I purchased it. The interior is nice but nothing fancy. Controls are easy to reach and use. The ride is a little firm and you feel the bumps but the tires this used vehicle came with are cheap, cheap, and cheap. When I need to replace them with something better, I think the ride will improve. The car still handles and drives very well even with the sorry tires. My model has the base, inline four-cylinder engine. Its noisy if moderately pushed and feels somewhat underpowered. Fords inline four from this generation did have a reputation for long life and reliability which are important to me. Ive driven a Fusion like this that had the V-6 engine, and it is definitely a better fit for the car. It has more power and less vibration and noise but at the expense of less fuel economy. For me fuel economy was a definite factor, so I was fine with the four-cylinder engine. My model is the SE version. If you want the best overall experience, I would try to find a SEL model. That step up usually has the V-6 engine and most of the time the leather interior. Most SEL models have the automatic climate control system where you just set you temperature and the system adjust fan speed and heating/cooling to maintain the temperature. The base and SE like mine with manual controls you have to adjust fan speed and temperature yourself to keep the temperature you like. Overall, it seems to be a solid economical car and it isnt plagued by some of the reliability issues the current generation Fusions that began in 2013 have. If you decide you want one, Id look for a 2010 to 2012 model with the SE or SEL package. That seemed to be the best of the crop for that generation of the Fusion.

I loved this car. Very powerful and I enjoyed racing people and easily winning. Great handling around corners. Has a lot of technology in it. Very easy to park and drive around. Not many blind spots. The only bad thing is the tires spin very easily due to the power and only FWD version of it.

very surprised how well this 4 door midsize car performs. Highly recommended No complaints. Excellent reliability and low cost maintenance. Strong brakes and taut yet comfortable suspension. Transmission very intuitive with shifts. Very quiet and secure on the highway. Excellent fuel economy and refined Engine. Passing and merging no problem

My first impression when looking at it is a some what aggressive but conservative. It looks like a big car and it is for a midsize car. The materials in the interior are nice all around. I would prefer leather but the cloth seats are good. They are comfortable seats, i never get fatigued on my commutes and plenty of room for a six foot guy to stretch out. I think someone taller would have no problem either. Road noise is a minimum and the suspension smooths out the road nicely. The engine has a nice aggressive V6 sound when accelerating hard. Every day driving the engine is smooth and quiet. I feel the car has a little to much roll and dives easy when braking hard. What surprised me the most on this car is the gas mileage for such a big car and being a V6. The most I recorded is 32 mpg, but I usually average 29-30 mpg. I would highly recommend this car to someone that wants a great car for commuting and still big enough to haul family around.

This car is a blend of the last four sedans Ive owned: Ford Taurus, Mazda6 (two of them), Saab 9-3, and Hyundai Sonata. Its nimble, quick, and fuel-efficient with the added benefit of domestic production. The interior is comfortable and well-appointed in the SEL trim with the Moon and Tune package featuring, Sony/MS surround system, sun/moon roof, fogs, rear spoiler etc.
