Ive never seen a fusion with odd/execessive/ bad rear brake wear, only the 500/tarus platform that you need to replace the rear pads/rotors every 15k. They waste battery cables because of poor battery design, make shure the batt didnt leak out get an aftrmarket one for it if it has a factory one. If it needs an alignment its going to be expensive because the control arms need to be replaced to change camber/caster. Ford ues "lubed for life" suspension compnents (which means no grease fittings). Heated seats burn out, lumbar supports break so check them. PTO on awd models leak at the shaft seals (not just on the fusion all fords). Just some things I noticed when working on them, but all in all nice cars, if there taken care of you sould have no problems with it.
