To check for recalls go to [nhtsa.gov](http://nhtsa.gov) and enter the VIN number. Having said that, it is extremely doubtful there is a recall for oil usage. How many quarts/miles is it using? What is the mileage on the Fusion? It is 10 years old, has it been maintained with proper oil change intervals? Have you looked for leaks? ---

Have you verified the engine oil level is correct . . . ? When you start up the engine cold, first thing in the morning . . . is there a blue cloud from the exhaust? any blue smoke when accelerating? ---

A phone call to a dealer will usually get you a list of open recalls plus, TSBs (which you won’t get on a VIN lookup list). Worth a try. “Using more oil than gas” sounds like the end of the road for any engine, but I hope I am mistaken.
