dextan Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:09 PM Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:09 PM The cost of a 2014 service manual for the Ford Fusion & Hybrid Energi from an eBay seller, is $320. Are there 20 or even 10 people willing to participate in a group purchase? In case the link does not work, the eBay item number: 371925967961 https://www.ebay.com/itm/371925967961?ViewItem=&item=371925967961&fromMakeTrack=true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dextan Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:15 PM Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:15 PM I have asked the seller if he has a copy of a 2014 manual but he has not responded. The listing on eBay is for 2017 service manual on DVD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphy Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:57 PM Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 at 04:57 PM The official documentation from Ford's supplier is less than that. http://www.helminc.com/helm/homepage.asp?r= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dextan Posted July 25, 2018 at 07:06 PM Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 at 07:06 PM I've used Helms since 1995 to service cars starting with my Ford Taurus SHO. I visited Helms before posting here. When I first saw the listing for the 2014 Complete Car Service information DVD for $1,450, I thought that was "reasonable" compared to $2,700 for a year online access. There is a Fusion Hybrid Service Information CD-ROM which may be the section specifically for hybrids only. But for $100, I would prefer Complete Car Service info. Let's say I'm wrong and the CDROM actually has everything. At $186, it's the same question - are there 20 or even 10 people willing to participate in a group purchase? Murphy, can I count you in? http://www.helminc.com/helm/Result.asp?Style=helm&Mfg=FMC&Make=FRD&Model=FUSI&Year=2014&Category=15&Keyword=&Module=&selected%5Fmedia= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't worry about the engine service because the engine hardly ever runs and I still have an ESP warranty on the car which is good until April 2020. It's my around town car for groceries, Lowe's, breakfast meetings etc. For out of town trips I use my other car which has a 90 kWh battery and a significantly bigger trunk. I had assumed that by now Ford would have a much more capable Fusion. Instead they raised the miles from 21 to 25 and then announced the Fusion will be discontinued. The have canceled every model I have ever bought from them, Custom Line, Galaxy XL, Thunderbird (2), Crown Victoria (2), and now the Fusion (2). They also canceled me when they bought Philco to form Philco-Ford and then shut the Philco-Ford computer division down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dextan Posted July 26, 2018 at 11:15 AM Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 at 11:15 AM Yes, Ford exhibits decisions that sometimes defy reasoning (e.g. electric Ranger which I still have) but I still support them as it's the only one of the Big 3 which did not show up in a corporate jet to ask for bail out. Good for you! Must be the P90D. I fully supported that company once, until it got personal. Well, if no one else has the need for the service manual for now. I may decide to get the complete manual for myself. Anyone else needing it would have to be prorated thereafter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj2me Posted July 26, 2018 at 01:56 PM Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 at 01:56 PM I'm only interested in the 2017 service manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
