Reported problem in the Ford Fusion Hybrid’s braking is, a lag is felt when the brake is helpful, that is the brake sometimes feel as it is not effective by the book. It only feels on breaking for an instant and when releasing the pedal at a snail's pace it regains its potential and work as typical.

As in the case of Toyota, Ford was also aware about the braking come forth and the wits they place of protection’t recalled it is that no intelligence were on the brake failure of the Fusion.

are hybrids really enviromentally friendly?

froth68 questioned:

if a name takes the amount of energy to yield one vs a coventional car, the equipment of disposing the batteries and most of all, the life expectency of the hybrid car.

for model, my ford car, f350 diesel gets 20mpg on the highway, i run honest bio in it and it will last well over 300k, or heck, even 400k before the engine wants rebuilt, the trans will last about 120k-150k before needing rebuilt.

i skepticism a hybrid would ever last that long, so in look 3 hybrids would copy my one car as far as longetivity goes.

add that with all the expenditure of making the hybrid, transporting hybrids, extraction and transporting the raw equipment for making hybrids, is having a hybrid really more environmentally friendly?

it seems to be just exchanging one mpg savings for another, by and large pollution and fuel consumption to me would be the same, added privileged expenditure for repairs, they don’t seem environmentally friendly near as much as they are made out to be.

Why don’t they make hybird steam-gas engines?

David S questioned:

BMW is effective on steam-gas hybrid engine and Ford must be too. It may be able to capture up to 80% of waste heat and boost fuel efficiency. The gas engine block and exhaust waste heat it is used to generate steam. The engine block is in continuous 100 C fill up at full like for optimum mechanical top. The exhaust heats up the mist to boost the pressure and efficiency. For an all mechanical motor logic it will have low driving potential until the steam heats up.

An gripping motor car would start of at full potential. The battery size does not have to be too generous in view of the fact that it only wants ample to handbook 10-15 summary until the steam heats up. Then it generates bounty of electricity to handbook a long interval.

When a self fills up with gas they also fill up with fill up. It would be designed to have ample fill up and gas so that they are consumed at about the same rate.

Paid off SUV vs Hybrid?

SC82 questioned:

I have a 97 Ford Examiner that is paid off completely but unfortunately, it only gets18 city mpg and about 22 highway mpg. I know here is a shame to owning an SUV very than a small car with privileged mpg. The only problem is it’s cheaper for me to keep my suv than making car payments on a privileged efficiency vehicle. Have any of you ran into this circumstances and what did you do….. did you keep the paid off car, or did you get a more efficient one? For me, I waste about $120-$180 a month on gas. If I got a new car, I’d be making $300+ payments, plus gas, plus full coverage indemnity very than accountable in view of the fact that I’ll have a loan out on it. I know I may maybe buy an older small car but I’d like a new one in view of the fact that I ordinarily handbook the heck out of them and I know I’ll handbook it till it doesn’t run any longer. Another problem is that I have a bunch of animals and my husband & I are very outdoorsy and need the suv for hauling around all our material. I want to place less of a carbon trace but it’s pricey.
lol, we don’t have kids…. the animals really are animals. Dog, cats, rabbit and chinchilla
