| 2005 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | WE OWN A 2005 MERCURY MONTEGO PREMIER. OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS HAVE NOTICED ALTERNATE STALLING OR RANDOM ACCELERATING HOWEVER ON SATURDAY, AS I WAS ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED & REFUSED TO GO OVER 1,000 RPMS. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC WHICH LOCATED THE FAILURE AT THE THROTTLE BODY. CAR IS CURRENTLY @ LOCAL REPAIR SHOP, ESTIMATE OF $850.00 TO REPAIR. *TR |
| 2006 | TIRES | 2 YEARS AGO I PURCHASED 4 MICHELIN LATITUDE TIRES (65,000 MILE TIRES) FOR MY 2006 MERCURY MONTEGO. ON WEDNESDAY (9-25-13) I WENT TO THE DEALER (DISCOUNT TIRES) FOR A TIRE ROTATION. I WAS TOLD THE ROTATION COULD NOT BE DONE BECAUSE THE TIRES WERE UNSAFE. THE DEALERS DESCRIPTION WAS A CRACKING ISSUE. WHAT REALLY HAS HAPPENED IS THE RUBBER THREAD IS COMING OFF THE CORE OF ALL 4 TIRES (24,000 MILES). BECAUSE OF THIS UNSAFE CONDITION, I PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES AND THE DEALER ADJUSTED THE PRICE BASED ON THREAD WEAR. AS A CONSUMER I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR AN UNSAFE MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I NOTICED THAT MICHELIN HAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED THE LATITUDE TIRES FOR SUV'S AND SMALL TRUCKS. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR PASSENGER CARS SINCE THIS IS AN UNSAFE SITUATION AND HAS OCCURRED ON ALL 4 OF MY TIRES. *TR |
