| 2010 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | I WAS DRIVING ON THE NORTHWAY PREPARING TO GET IN THE RIGHT LANE TO EXIT AND I LOST ALL SPEED, NO ACCELERATION WAS POSSIBLE BUT I STILL HAD RADIO/A/C, ETC. I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER AND STOP THE CAR AND WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK IT "SPUTTERED" UNTIL I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF ENTIRELY. I WAITED A FEW MOMENTS AND TURNED THE ENGINE BACK ON AND IT STARTED FINE AND THEN DROVE FINE THE REST OF MY DRIVE. WHEN I GOT BACK TO WORK I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND WAS SURPRISED AT THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. EVERYONE HAD TAKEN THEIR CAR TO A DEALERSHIP OR MECHANIC AND COULD NOT FIGURE IT OUT. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH. FINALLY AFTER READING SO MANY OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ONE CAR OWNER STATED THAT A DIAGNOSIS RESULTED IN CODE P2111 (FAULTY THROTTLE BODY). I'M CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS CAR AND HAVING IT HAPPEN AGAIN. I DRIVE ON A FAST 3 LANE HIGHWAY ABOUT 20 MILES EACH WAY TO WORK AND IT'S NOT ALWAYS VERY EASY TO GET OVER TO SAFETY. AFTER SEEING THIS HAS BEEN INVESTIGATED IN ANOTHER STATE I AM HOPEFUL IT RESULTS IN A RECALL SO THIS PROBLEM CAN BE PROPERLY ADDRESSED AND FIXED. PLEASE HELP! *TR |
| 2009 | VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER | 2009 MERCURY MILAN. CONSUMER STATES FRONT SUSPENSION FAILURE *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS THE UPPER SUSPENSION ARMS ON THE VEHICLE. RIGHT AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, BOTH UPPER CONTROL ARMS HAD TO BE REPLACED, BEFORE ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS COULD BE ADDRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR UNRELATED PROBLEMS. HOWEVER, THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT WINDSHIELD WIPERS, TRANSMISSION FLUID AND NEW TIRES WERE NEEDED. SHORTLY AFTER THE VISIT TO THE DEALER, THE CONSUMER PURCHASED NEW TIRES FROM ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND DISCOVERED THE LEFT FRONT UPPER SUSPENSION ARM WAS HANGING BY A LOOSE NUT AND SEVERAL THREADS ON THE UPPER ARM'S BOLT. THE CONSUMER NOTICED THERE WAS NO SAFETY DEVICE THAT WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THE RETAINING NUT FROM COMING LOOSE. *JB |
