MERCURY Complaints

DOOR HANDLES BRAKING ON DRIVER/PASSENGER DOORS. HAVING DIFFICULT TIME ROLLING WINDOW UP/DOWN IN DRIVER'S SIDE. CHECKED ONLINE, AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCURY MILAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V793000 (FUEL SYSTEM GASOLINE) AND STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER (STEVENS JERSEY CITY FORD, 740 NJ-440, JERSEY CITY, NJ 07304) CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

I STARTED THE CAR, BACKED UP AND SUDDENLY I HAD NO POWER STEERING. NO WARNINGS JUST UNABLE TO BUDGE THE STEERING WHEEL. CAR IS STILL SITTING AT A RESTAURANT . IF THIS HAPPENED TO ANYONE WHILE DRIVING THERE IS NO WAY THEY COULD CONTROL THIS CAR! THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE WITH 2011 MILAN BUT NOT 2010 BUT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT OR WORSE IF FORD DOESN'T FIX THIS. THE 1700 PLUS REPAIR IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR MOST OF US!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHT MODULE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED FOR THE SAME FAILURE, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 230,000.

EVERYTIME I TRY TO FILL GAS, THE PUMPS KEEP SHUTTING OFF. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAST OR SLOW I DO IT OR THE ANGLE. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL GARAGE AND AFTER THEY INSPECTED IT AND FOUND NO OBVIOUS ISSUES, THEY LOOKED ONLINE IN THEIR MECHANIC WEBSITE AND SEEN THAT THE FUEL NOZZILS FOR THESE TYPES OF VEHICLES OFTEN NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO SHAPE OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE IF A PROBLEM IS CAUSED DUE TO FAULTY DESIGN, THEN I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. IT'S A VERY FRUSTRATING PROBLEM. IT CAN TAKE 5-10 MINUTES TO FILL TANK COMPLETELY AND WHEN IN NEGATIVE TEMPERATURES, THAT'S A LONG TIME TO BE STANDING OUTSIDE.

STEERING COLUMN LOCKS WHILE TURN MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE STEERING COLUMN. THERE ARE 168 RECENT COMPLAINTS DESCRIBING A SIMILAR PROBLEM. WITH THE LAST OCCURRENCE, THE CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALONG WITH THE ABS LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. RESTARTED THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES AND COULD NOT STEER AT ALL. PAUSED A FEW MINUTES, RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE STEERING WAS VERY LOOSE AS IF THERE WAS NO STEERING CONTROL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE WAS A RECALL ON MODEL YEAR 2011-2015. NHTSA PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND HOLD THE MANUFACTURER ACCOUNTABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF THE OWNER OF A 2010 MERCURY MILAN. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. AS A RESULT, THE DRIVER REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOW LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, FUEL SPILLED ALL OVER THE ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING. THERE WAS NO SMOKE PRESENT. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO PLACED O-RINGS IN THE FUEL INJECTORS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HILBISH FORD (704-938-3121, LOCATED AT 2600 S CANNON BLVD, KANNAPOLIS, NC 28083) WHERE THE O-RINGS AND THE FUEL INJECTORS WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED.

CRACKED PLASTIC INTAKE DRIVING DOWN ROAD CAR BEGAN TO MISS FIRE SO BAD I HAD TO STOP AND CALL FOR TOW TRUCK

MY VEHICLE IS A 200& MERCURY MERINER IT HAS BEEN STATIONARY LUCKILY WHEN THE POWER STEERING HAS STOPPED WORKING. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED IN 2015 AND NEVER RECEIVED ANY PAPER WORK ABOUT A RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING. I HAVE LOOKED IT UP AND THERE WAS A RECALL ON THEM. I WOULD GO TO CRANK THE VEHICLE UP AND MY WHEEL WOULDN'T TURN AT ALL. I HAVE TURNED IT COMPLETELY OFF OPENED THE HOOD TOOK THE BATTERY CABLES OFF LET IT SET FOR 5 MINS AND CONNECTED IT ALL BACK CRICK THE CAR AND IT WOULD WORK HOWEVER THAT WOULD ONLY FIX IT FOR A MINUTE. THIS CAR IS MY ONLY DEPENDABLE VEHICLE
