2008 MERCURY MILAN Complaints

THE FRONT BRAKES NEED FREQUENT REPLACEMENT. THE BRAKES PEDAL HAS WENT TO THE FLOOR WHILE DRIVING AND TRYING TO STOP. I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 45 MPH ON A RURAL ROAD. PUMPING THE PEDAL RETURNED BRAKING POWER. THE CAR SEEMS TO TAKE LONGER TO STOP AND THE BRAKES ARE UNRELIABLE.

WHEN DRIVING AND TRYING TO BRAKE, THE PEDDLE GOES ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR & THE CAR DOES NOT STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. HAVE ALMOST HIT CARS & PEDESTRIANS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE AT ALL WHEN THIS HAPPENS

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE RCVD NUMEROUS RECALL WARNINGS HOWEVER WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY HADN'T YET RECEIVED REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS! NOW I'M RECEIVING A NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY SO I SHOULD TAKE ACTION! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO TAKE ACTION? WHY AREN'T THESE AIRBAGS AVAILABLE SO THEY CAN BE REPLACED BEFORE A PROBLEM?

TAKATA RECALL. WHEN CALLING DEALERSHIPS THAT ARE BOOKING FOR REPLACEMENT OF TAKATA AIR BAGS, I AM TOLD THE PARTS ARE NOT IN FOR THE MERCURY MILAN AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BE IN. HOW LONG WILL I HAVE TO WAIT? I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR.

A RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY IN JULY 2016 ADVISING OF SAFETY RECALL 16S26. IT STATED THAT THAT WHEN THE PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE I WOULD BE NOTIFIED. TO DATE WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF THE PARTS BEING AVAILABLE. AFTER RECEIVING NOTIFICATION OF TAKATA'S BANKRUPTCY, A CALL WAS MADE TO HOLMAN LINCOLN, MAPLE SHADE, NJ WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT KNOWS NOTHING OF THIS RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL 16V384. A RECALL WAS ISSUED IN JUNE 2016 FOR MY VEHICLE REGARDING A POTENTIALLY DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATOR THAT COULD RUPTURE, CREATING A RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OF DEATH. AS OF NOVEMBER 2017, NO REPAIR HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE, WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE.

TAKATA RECALL-IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. I'M TOLD THAT DRIVING MY CAR PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY AT RUSH, BUT FORD STILL HASN'T GOTTEN ANYTHING DONE.

TAKATA RECALL - RECALL ISSUED JUN 1, 2016. PARTS FOR REPAIR ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AS OF NOV 2017.

"TAKATA RECALL" IN THE LAST 1 1/2 YEAR I HAVE SPENT $1500 IN BRAKE ISSUES. BRAKE PEDAL JUST GOES SOFT. THIS IS WITHIN THE LAST 7000 MILES THAT I HAVE OWED THE CAR. CURRENT MILES 68,000.

TAKATA RECALL - RECEIVED LETTER ABOUT TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL BACK IN JULY 2016. CALLED FORD DEALER SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AND STILL NO PARTS FOR REPLACEMENT YET. CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE.
