| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 2010 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCURY MILAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED SPORADICALLY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC WAS PERFORMED, WHICH LOCATED THE FAILURE AT THE THROTTLE BODY ACTUATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 104,000. |
| 2010 | POWER TRAIN | THE PROBLEM STARTED ALMOST A YEAR AGO BUT DID NOT SEEM TO OCCUR ALL THE TIME. FROM TAKE OFF, THE CAR WOULD STALL AND THEN RE-ENGAGE WITH GUSTO. UP UNTIL THE OTHER DAY THE CAR LOST ALL POWER BUT WAS IDLING. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY, ATTEMPTED TO LISTEN TO WHAT I HEARD AND THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD GAS ISSUE AND NOTICED THE WRENCH AND ENGINE LIGHTS WERE ON. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN RESTARTED TO HAVE FULL GAS PEDAL RESPONSE BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. I PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD TO THE INTERSTATE BUT DECIDED TO GET SOME FUEL (3/8 OF A TANK EXISTED) AND SOME FUEL ADDITIVE. THE CAR STOPPED AND STARTED WITHOUT AVAIL, AS I ENTERED THE INTERSTATE 30 RAMP THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AGAIN. I PULLED TO THE SHOULDER AND REPEATED THE PREVIOUS RESTART. I CALLED LANDERS FORD IN BENTON, AR AND TOLD THEM THE ISSUE AND WOULD BE BRINGING THE CAR INTO THE FACILITY. NOT WANTING TO GET BACK ONTO THE INTERSTATE AND POSSIBLY CAUSING A WRECK OR TRAFFIC BLOCKAGE, I DROVE USING THE OUTER ROAD, THE ISSUE OCCURRED AT LEAST TWICE WHILE EN-ROUTE. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM AS MY GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALED AND COULD BE A MAJOR HIGHWAY SAFETY ISSUE FOR SOMEONE LIVING WITHIN THE MAJOR AREAS OF AMERICA. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL, AND THE BBB. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NEED REPLACEMENT WITH NEWER VEHICLES AND MUST BE A KNOWN ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS LISTED AS "NOT COVERED" UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY! *TR |
