No take it to the original dealer and make sure they give yo a loaner and say to them DO NOT CALL ME UNTIL IT IS FIXED. This lame excuse car dealers have of saying UH No problem found is crap, it is a cop out for busy dealers to push you aside. GO take it to the sales man and say hey bub you sold it to me now get it fixed or I want another one NOW! Be persistent and be diligent, you will get the reward.
If you take it to another dealer then another and another then you are just passing the buck from the first one who should have said Problem solved.
I will always make sure the customer knows if I can't find a problem they obviously have, I have to make sure they know I did all I could then tell them to show mw how you make it happen...
Good Luck

Christine-
Have you read the owners manual at all?
If not, here it is in PDF format so you can download it & save it to your computer:

The horn honking issue sounds to me like the anti-theft system. see pages 98-99
The interior lights will stay on for at least 20 minutes if you've left a door (or decklid) ajar.
Make sure that you have closed all your doors & trunk all the way before you lock.
Make sure you read & understand your anti-theft system.
If you then still have a problem, you should take it to your original dealer & have your salesperson and/or service advisor try to duplicate the problem or show you what you are doing.
You don't have to stomp your foot & make demands as some other answerers have suggested.
They want you to be happy!
The Fusion is the most defect free vehicle that is on the road today!
You don't have to take my word for that. You can read about in Consumer Report Magazine. You can research it with the NHTSAs Office of Defect Investigation. There aren't even ANY complaints AT ALL (that's right, ZERO complaints )on the '07 Fusion listed by consumers at the NHTSA-ODI.
(currantly 111 on 07 Camry- ya know Motor Trends Car of the year)

So rest assured, you have bought an excellent vehicle, you just need to get to know how its features work.
Please feel free to e-mail me & correct me if I am wrong.

If you have a remote start system or remote alarm (not the keyless entry) that can trigger some of the symptoms you describe. Especially if either of those modules are non-Ford parts.
Check the module, it HAS to say "Ford" on it. If it's aftermarket, that can cause some conflicts. Also, just because the dealer installed it doesn't mean its from Ford. Dealers are free to use any parts they want.

Keep taking it in. They can hook it up and see if it has something to do with the computer. Stay on them till they find the problen and fix it. Hope you didn't get a lemon.
Good luck
