MERCURY Complaints

CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT WORK NOR POWER ON. CIGARETTE LIGHTER OUTLET HAS NO POWER.

BEGINNING IN JULY 2016, I BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE A "POWER STEERING SYSTEM FAILURE" MESSAGE UPON STARTING MY 2010 MERCURY MILAN. GIVEN THAT IT WAS AN INFREQUENT OCCURRENCE, I FOLLOWED THE MANUAL'S INSTRUCTION TO TURN OFF THE CAR, WAIT FOR 10 TO 15 SECONDS AND THEN RESTART IT. THIS ACTION WOULD CLEAR THE ERROR CODE, AND I WOULD BE ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, WITHIN THE LAST FEW WEEKS, THE ERROR MESSAGE HAS OCCURRED MUCH MORE FREQUENTLY. AS SUCH, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO AN ACTUATOR BEING STUCK OPEN. PLEASE CONSIDER ADDING THE 2010 MERCURY MILAN TO THE ALREADY MANDATED RECALL.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY & STOPPED AT ONE OF THE SERVICE STATIONS ALONG THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE I PUT MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR, TURNED IT ON, PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE HIT THE GAS & THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. I TRIED PUTTING IT IN REVERSE & NOTHING HAPPENED. THE CAR WOULD REV UP BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT FELT LIKE I HAD THE CAR ON NEUTRAL. TRIED SEVERAL TIMES & NOTHING HAPPENED. I THEN TRIED TO PUT THE CAR ON D3 & THAT IS WHEN IT MOVED SLIGHTLY. PARK & DRIVE DO NOT WORK!! VERY DANGEROUS HAD THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS STILL DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH IS WHAT WOULD HAVE PROBABLY HAPPENED. I WAS ONLY OUT OF MY CAR FOR 10 MINUTES.

I HAVE TOYO VERSADO LX TIRES ON MY 2005 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS P225/60/R16 98T DOT DOT 73A6FWV4410. THE TIRE HAS DEVELOPED A BUBBLE IN THE TREAD ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. I PULLED THE TIRE OUT OF SERVICE BEFORE ANY FAILURE OR ACCIDENT. TOYO TIRES IS NOT EVEN INTERESTED IN HEARING ABOUT ANY PART OF THE PROBLEM. THEY JUST TELL ME IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I WAS NOT MAKING A WARRANTY CLAIM, BUT AM DISAPPOINTING THAT THEY WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THE DETAILS OF THE PROBLEM TO SEE IF THIS IS AN ISOLATED INCIDENCE OR WHETHER THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES. I AM QUITE SURE THAT THERE ARE ALOT OF THESE TIRES THAT ARE APPROACHING 5 YEARS OLD THAT ARE ON THE ROAD. I LIVE IN KINGMAN ARIZONA, AND THE CAR IS KEPT IN A GARAGE OUT OF THE SUN WHEN PARKED. IT IS NOT PARKED OUT IN THE SUN REGULARLY DURING THE DAY EITHER. THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENTS OR FLATS ON THIS TIRE AND IT HAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000 MILES ON IT. THE REMAINING TREAD DEPTH IS APROX 5/32 OF AN INCH.
