140K miles, still owe 7k… worth fixing the bumper? How much am I looking at?

The real crime is that high of mileage owing 7k.

Never done it before idk what all I need, I don’t have bank statements lol. Just paystubs.

@Adler
Open a credit union account if you’re financially able, put what money you can in it as often as you can, keep making your payments and after a year with them, call them if they can help you refinance. The process itself isn’t really hard but the steps before are time-consuming.

You should be able to get 100k more miles if it’s 2.0 Hybrid or 2.5.

I just paid my 2018 off a few weeks ago and only have 98k and 90k of that is highway miles. Dang. People drive the hell out of their cars.

@Shan
Some people got jobs that require a lot of driving.

I used to drive a lot for work. Then I got injured and had to retire early.

@Shan
I leased then bought my 2018. It has 43k miles. One nice thing about retiring early is not commuting every day.

Absolutely! You can get a quote from a local body shop or worst case scenario you can order one from eBay for ~$250 and YouTube how to put the bumper on!

Even less if you get lucky in a junkyard.

@Mai
I think some you are able to call to see if they have what you need. Don’t even need to leave your bed.

True, they usually have an inventory.

Amazon has a few for 119+.

Plastic welding, zip ties, or another bumper cover from the junkyard. If you owe 7k for a Fusion, you need to know how to fix things yourself.

Zip ties is what I would go with. Drill holes on each side of the crack and stitch that shit up.
