DB Electrical New Starter 410-48124 for Ford 2.3L Fusion 2006-2010 & Mercury Milan 6E5Z-11002-Aa

Was an exact match on a 2006 Ford Fusion. Within an hour we had the old one off (it lasted 13 years and 200,000+ miles) and installed this new one. Initially, it started right away, but because we'd disconnected and reconnected the battery, it seemed like we had issues. All we did was let it run for a second, then reset the codes. Since then, it's been perfect. It also had a second longer delay to start vs the original, but after an hour it started just as fast as the last one. Great product. Perfect fit. Exact match and $100 cheaper than anywhere else.

Product is a good replacement for the factory starter/solenoid. (Tricky to install due to its location and due to differing main mounting bolt sizes -- 13mm top, 15mm bottom -- but that's not part of the product review -- that's the car.) Starter has a completely different sound than the factory original; interesting, but who cares? Fits and works fine.
