UPDATE: Sometime after posting this, I discovered that one of my rims was slightly deformed, which probably amplified the little bit of torque steer on take off. Once replaced, the torque steer effect diminished, but it did not completely go away. I have purchased a 2014 Fusion Titanium, that is also AWD, and it exhibits similar symptoms. There's a tad of a nudge to the right - the outer part of the steering wheel might move a half of an inch to an inch towards the right when taking off (with the hands off the wheel), and then it settles dead center once the AWD system kicks in.
