We would not have even looked at the Fusion Energi if the current 88mpg claim was on the sticker, as we upgrade when we can double our mileage, and our 2010 Prius regularly gets 47-50mpg...which takes the Energi out of consideration...that, plus the method of calculating the ("customer satisfaction program 14B03) check amount is chock full of low numbers...$3.54/g gas...12K miles driven per year...got us to an $850 check...we haven't seen $3.54 gas in years here in CA, and our annual miles are over 16K...
Ford says it will make no more adjustments...I wonder if the courts will agree...the whole thing seems fraudulent to me...and Ford sending a check without being sued or prompted indicates to me that they likely feel the same...the car they sold us doesn't actually exist...isn't that fraud?...
On top of all this, I can't shake the memory of a claim of 108mpg for the Fusion Energi at some time before we purchased. Does anybody else recall, or have any record of such data? A couple of verifications is about all I need to talk to an attorney about the class-action lawsuit that seems inevitable now. I don't like being 'fooled'...not one bit. And I especially don't like it when the 'fooler' gets to unilaterally decide what the atonement will be.
