What owners report
OPENED LIFT GATE TO REMOVE PACKAGE FROM TRUNK AREA, HINGE BROKE AND THE LIFT GATE FELL ON MY HUSBAND'S HEAD. HE WAS STRUCK WITH THE HITCH/LOCKING MECHANISM. WONDERING IF THESE LIFT GATES ISSUES (INCLUDING THOSE RECALLED FOR 2002 & 2003 MODELS) HAVE ANY CORRELATION TO THE LIFT GATE PANELS CRACKING FROM BELOW THE WIPER ASSEMBLY, AROUND THE LOGO, TO THE BOTTOM OF THE LIFT GATE PANEL. I AM REALLY STRUGGLING WITH THE REASONING THAT THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS FOR THE 2004 MODEL TO ISSUE A RECALL. IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOME GETTING HIT JUST RIGHT IN THE HEAD AND DYING? THERE IS NO WARNING. *TR
2004 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER I'VE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS; A HARD JERKING WHEN YOU PLACE IT IN REVERSE,AND ROUGH SHIFTING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. DEALERSHIP MADE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR, AND OFTEN SAID THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. ALSO, CRUISE CONTROL QUITS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY, REPLACED BUT STILL A PROBLEM.*AK
WHENEVER THE VEHICLE SHIFTED IN REVERSE, THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL MADE A LOUD SQUEALING NOISE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER THAT MOISTURE PENETRATED INTO THE WHEEL, AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. THE INFORMATION WAS SENT TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR ANALYSIS.*AK
