WHILE DRIVING ON A NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD THE ENTIRE ACCELERATOR ASSEMBLY FELL OF ONTO THE FLOOR. I FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF THE NUTS USED TO AFFIX THE ASSEMBLY TO THE FIRE WALL. HAD THIS OCCURRED ON INTERSTATE DRIVING OR IN HEAVY CITY TRAFFIC AN ACCIDENT COULD HAPPEN. *AK

FROM THE TIME THE CONSUMER PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS WITH IT. THE TRANSMISSION IN THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD CLUNKING SOUND. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION ONCE BUT THE CONSUMER CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE PROBLEMS. THE HEAD LINER ON THE CEILING FELL DOWN. *JB

I WAS MAKING SURE ALL THE DOORS OF MY 2002' MOUNTAINEER WERE CLOSED AND WHEN I SHUT THE BACK LIFT GATE ONE OF THE CONNECTING BRACKETS CAME OUT OF PLACE AND CAUSED THE WHOLE THING TO SHATTER A SPRAY GLASS IN MY FACE. I HAD GLASS STUCK IN MY SCALP AND HAD TO WASH OUT MY EYES FOR 4 HOURS AS WELL AS MY HANDS AND FACE BEING CUT. I READ ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT THIS IS A KNOW DEFECT BY FORD, I CONTACTED FORD ON THIS AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME SINCE MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRENTY THEY DONT CARE AND THE PART COST OVER $1200 TO BE REPLACED - BECAUSE THE WAY IT WAS DESIGNED YOU CANNOT GET JUST THE GLASS I NEED BODY PARTS TOO.*AK PE04045.PCO

PASSENGER-SIDE LIFT CYLINDER BRACKET BECAME DETACHED. AS I WAS CLOSING THE LIFTGATE GLASS, THE WINDOW EXPLODED AND THE METAL PIECE FELL TO THE GROUND. I SUSTAINED A MINOR CUT TO MY ANKLE. THE DEBRIS FIELD WAS AS FAR AS 10FT. FORTUNATELY, MY SONS WERE NOT INJURED. THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, BUT MY INSURANCE COMPANY HAS ADVISED ME THAT I CAN TAKE IT INTO THE DEALER. *AK PE04045.PCO

AS I WAS DRIVING, ALL 5 OF THE TIRE STUDS ON MY 2002 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER BROKE, WHICH THEN CAUSED MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL TO FALL OFF. WHEN THE TIRE FELL OFF IT TORE THE FENDER OF MY CAR. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE TIRE OR HUB CAP. *JB

WHILE DRIVING IN COLD WEATHER DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FELL OFF TRACK, CAUSING THE GLASS TO FALL INSIDE THE PANEL OF THE DOOR FRAME. ONSUMER WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND MECHANIC REPLACED THE WINDOW. ALSO, CONSUMER WENT TO LIFT UP THE TAILGATE AND THE CABLE SNAPPED IN HALF. CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CABLE IN THE BACK OF THE TRUNK. HOWEVER, MECHANIC INFORMED CONSUMER THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT ON RECALL OR UNDER WARRANTY. *AK

I BOUGHT A 2002 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER MAY 16TH 2003 WITH APPROX 45,000 MILES. ABOUT A WEEK LATER WE NOTICED THAT THE SHIFTING SEEMED TO BE JERKY GOING FROM 2-3 GEARS. TOOK IT BACK INTO THE PERSON I BOUGHT IT FROM AND HE CALLED OUR LOCAL FORD DEALER WHO HE PURCHASED IT FROM 2 DAYS PRIOR FOR ME. THEY STATED THERE WERE NOT BULLETINS OUT ON THE TRANSMISSION. WE HAD THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CHECKED AND IT APPEARED TO BE OK. A COUPLE OF MONTHS WENT BY AND THEN A SOFT SHUDDER STARTED WHEN GOING TO THE NEXT GEARS. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL TRANSMISSION PLACE AND THE TECH STATED THAT HE HAD SEEN 2 OF THESE INCIDENTS IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. RECOMMENDED I GET RID OF THE VEHICLE AS THERE WAS A FLAW IN THE TRANSMISSION DESIGN. IN NOVEMBER OF 2003 WE HAD THE TRANSMISSION SERVICED (APPROX $250). CLEARED UP THE PROBLEM FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS BUT REAPPEARED AND THEN WENT INTO A HARD SHIFT GOING TO EACH GEAR. FEB 2004 TOOK IT BACK TO LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY WILL CHARGE ME $2700 TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION WITH A REBUILT FORD TRANSMISSION. THE REAL KICKER IS I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE MY 2001 FORD WINDSTAR'S TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AND THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ON IT TOO. I GUESS SHAME ON ME FOR CONTINUING TO BUY FORD. *AK

I HAVE A CONTINUED PROBLEM OF THE ABS LIGHT COMING ON. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP 5-6 TIMES. THEY CHANGED THE SENSOR AND A WHILE LATER IT COMES BACK ON. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, MY BRAKES HAVE GONE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE DEALERSHIP MAINTAINS THAT MERCURY IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND MAY BE WORKING ON A RECALL. MY LIGHT IS NOW ON AGAIN AND HAVE PLACED A CALL TO THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE MANAGER TO RETURN TO TOWN TO SEE WHAT HE WOULD LIKE TO DO. OH, AND I DO HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I HAVE PAID OVER $2,000. WHAT IS THAT FOR? WHAT WILL IT TAKE, MY BRAKES TO GO OUT?

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP 5 / 6 TIMES TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. THE SENSOR HAS BEEN CHANGED AND AFTER A MONTH OR SO, IT COMES BACK ON AGAIN. ON MY LAST VISIT TO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD MECURY WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY WERE WORKING ON A SOLUTION. THEY SAID I WOULD BE CONTACTED IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. THAT WAS MONTHS AGO AND MY LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN. WHAT WILL IT TAKE, AN ACCIDENT? NOW I AM WAITING FOR THE MANAGER TO RETURN TO TOWN TO GIVE ME A CALL.

ABS SENSOR LIGHT STAYED ON. CONSUMER STATED THAT VEHICLE PRODUCED A LOUD GRINDING NOISE, AND THERE WAS EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. DEALER CLAIMED ABS SYSTEM FAILED. *AK

2002 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER: WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE VEHICLE RAPIDLY DOWNSHIFTING FROM 4TH GEAR TO 2ND GEAR WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN DRIVING IN LONGER DISTANCE IN CITY TRAFFIC. WE ARE AFRAID OF BEING REAR ENDED. THE VEHICLE ALSO DOES NOT RUN PROPERLY WHEN COLD. WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE 20?S (20 DEGREES ON THE FAHRENHEIT SCALE) IT WILL ONLY GO BETWEEN 10-15 MPH UNTIL WARM. WHEELS FEEL LIKE THEY ARE SPINNING. THE VEHICLE ALSO MAKES A HOWLING NOISE (SOUNDS COMPUTER GENERATED) AT BETWEEN 55-70 MPH. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT 11,000 MILES. IT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEMS. FORD HAS OFFERED A CASH SETTLEMENT OF $6200.00. WE DO HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. CAN THESE PROBLEMS BE FIXED? THE FIRST ISSUE IS THE ONE OF GREATEST CONCERN. *LA

THE VEHICLE QUICKLY SHIFTS WHENEVER YOU ACCELERATE, IT'S RATHER JERKY AND STARTLING. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE GEARS ARE CHANGING INCORRECTLY THUS CAUSING A JERKY MOTION. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS A NORMAL REACTION, WHICH I DISAGREE. I MOST RECENTLY CONTACTED THE MERCURY HOME OFFICE, WHO SUGGESTED THAT I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTICS CHECK. I SAW SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AND THOUGHT THAT I SHOULD REPORT MY PROBLEM. *JB

CONSUMER STATED THE ABS HAD FAILED. CONSUMER STATED THE BRAKES WENT OUT ON HER TWICE AND SHE DROVE IT TO THE DEALER .

THE SIDE AIR BAGS IN MY 2002 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. ALTHOUGH NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED BECAUSE THE CAR WAS TRAVELING AT LESS THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR AT THE TIME, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS SITUATION. FORD'S RESPONSE HAS BEEN LESS THAN SATISFACTORY. DESPITE THE FACT THAT I PROMPLTLY NOTIFIED FORD OF THE INCIDENT, NO ONE AT FORD'S CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT HAS CONTACTED ME TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM AS PROMISED. IN FACT, WHEN I CALLED FORD ON MARCH 1, 2003 TO FOLLOW-UP, A TELEPHONE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT FORD'S COMPUTER RECORDS SHOW THAT A CONSUMER AFFAIRS AGENT HAD CONTACTED ME ON FEBRUARY 27, 2003. I RECEIVED NO SUCH CALL AND I AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR FROM AN AGENT FROM THAT DEPARTMENT.

THE FIRST TIME THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON I-275 GOING TO JURY DUTY. IT WAS RUSH HOUR, STOP & GO TRAFFIC. I WAS EXCELLERATING AND AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MILES PER HOUR, THE TRUCK LIKE "SLAMMED" INTO GEAR. IT STARTED ME & I THOUGHT I HAD BEEN REAR-ENDED. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ON MY CELL PHONE AND ASKED TO BRING IT IN. I WAS TOLD SINCE I WAS IN JURY DUTY, I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MY SERVICE ENDED AND THEN BRING IT IN. I ASKED IF THE TRANSMISSION OR DRIVETRAIN COULD FURTHER DAMAGE & WAS TOLD NO. I WAS AFRAID TO KEEP DRIVING IT BUT DID NOT HAVE A CHOICE AT THE TIME. I KEPT TRACK OF THE TIMES THE TRUCK "SLAMMED" INTO GEAR WHICH UP UNTIL THE TIME I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN, WAS WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS WARM & IT WAS ON EXCELLERATIONS AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS & TIMES. THE SERVICE PEOPLE SAID IT DID NOT DO IT WHILE THEY TEST DROVE IT BUT FORD'S KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH IT & THE REPAIR WAS TO REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER CHIP & THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM IT DID NOT. I HAD TO RE-SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO FIX IT. THIS TIME THE DEALER PLACED A RECORDING DEVICE ON THE TRUCK & WERE ABLE TO CAPTURE IT ACTING UP. THE SERVICE PERSON TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION & THAT'S WHAT HE'D LIKE TO DO TO REPAIR IT BUT I'D HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL FORD'S RETRIEVED THE DATA. I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND IT ONLY HAD 800 MILES ON IT! WHILE WAITING FOR A DETERMINATION, I HAD DRIVEN THE VEHICLE ABOUT 6 OR 7 MILES AND AN AWFUL ODOR FILLED THE CAB. IT SMELLED
