| 2000 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | CONSUMER NOTICED WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD TRAVEL TO FLOOR BOARD. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND REPLACED BRAKES. MR CONSUMER FELT BRAKES FAILED PREMATURELY. AFTER ONLY 8 MONTHS BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAK. *TT |
| 2003 | STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE | CRACK IN THE REAR LIFTGATE TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE MERCURY EMBLEM. WHEN WE FIRST NOTICED THE CRACK, IT WAS ABOUT 1/2 WAY DOWN THE PLASTIC, THEN WITHIN A WEEK IT WAS ALL THE WAY THOUGH. I'M NOT SURE IF THERE IS ANY STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS THAT ARE EFFECTED BY THE CRACK OR WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE CRACK. I'M NOT SURE IF THE GLASS IS EFFECTED OR NOT, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT WHATEVER CAUSED THE PLASTIC TO CRACK WILL ALSO EFFECT THE STRENGTH OF THE GLASS. *TR |
