Oil Type and Change Intervals
Ford generally recommends 5W-20 viscosity for most 2014 Fusion engines, using a synthetic blend or full synthetic oil. Specific requirements may vary by engine and climate, so follow the exact specification in your manual. Typical oil-change intervals range from about 5,000 miles with conventional oil to up to 7,500–10,000 miles when using high-quality synthetic oil and favorable driving conditions.
How to Check and Maintain Oil Levels
Always check the dipstick level when the engine is at proper operating temperature and the car is on level ground. Ensure the oil level sits between the MIN and MAX marks. If you’re topping up, add small amounts at a time and recheck to avoid overfilling, which can damage the engine.
