也聊我的Ford Fusion

美国三大车系里我印象最好的是福特，学生时代买过一个二手的 86 年FORD Taurus，非常 可靠 ，什么毛病都没有，我尤其喜欢高速的安静与沉稳。。我的第一辆新车是 Honda accord，到是没有大毛病，但小毛病不断，另外就是锈的厉害。开了13年， 总的来说是不喜欢。

这个fusion是2011年的，跑了 48K 迈。有过两个毛病:1）Power steering assistance failure，敌乐免费换了 rack & pinion。2）throttle
body malfunction，也是由敌乐免费修理。还有就是最近换了电池。

I knew the second problem before it happened. So I was kind mentally prepared. Ford sent me a letter telling me about the TB extended warranty, and I then did a throttle body cleaning. But malfunction still happened three months later.

What I like about this car is no small problems, which were so annoying and happened often with the Accord. Also the rust problem is better than the Accord. The paint quality is much better than my other car—Toyota Sienna, its paint is so thin that I can never repair chipping by sanding and polishing. But I have no problem doing so on the Fusion.

Other than that I am not overly impressed about this car.
