CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2011 Fusion builds off the 2010's reputation. That's not a good thing.
The first thing that jumps out is the ridiculous amount of power steering complaints. It grinds, it squeals, and it eventually just fails.
And if losing power steering isn’t enough for you, how about a sudden loss of engine power? That combination is enough to achieve clunker status.

The contact owns a 2011 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that the sun roof exploded and imploded glass without warning. The glass particles entered the inside of the vehicle. There were no injuries. Shenandoah Ford (9135 winchester rd, front royal, va 22630, (540) 636-2901) was contacted and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contact, but did not specify that they would determine the cause of the failure other than having the insurance company cover the repair and for the contact to replace the part. The approximate failure mileage was 146,000.
Driving along and the sunroof exploded. Sounded like a gunshot. Glass did not just spiderweb, pieces of glass, including small shards and slivers fell inside the car and into the backseat. Fortunately the car seats had no kids at the time, as there was glass there.
