general problems of the 2006 Mercury Montego

The contact owns a 2006 Mercury Montego. The contact stated that while parallel parking, the vehicle independently accelerated and lunged forward. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was due to the throttle body. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

The throttle control transmission has failed me several times when I’m on the road. Thankfully it’s only left me stranded on the side of the freeway once but has made me stop during oncoming traffic several times. The wrench light comes on when the vehicle decelerates and I’m unable to accelerate. Once the steering wheel even locked. This happens at random times but because the code is pending mechanics can’t seem to find the issue. This has happened dozens of time where it just stops suddenly while driving. I am concerned for the safety of me and my family when driving this vehicle. Please get this issue resolved!.

My car goes into limp mode when the cruise is set and it approaches any incline.

Car was completly stopped at a red light. Then all of a sudden the car lurched forward 5 feet with foot on the brake. This makes the 3rd or 4th time in the past year it has happened. Lucky no one was in front of me.

Vehicle surged when put in reverse, vehicle lunged, engine ran rough and vehicle died. Vehicle was hard to control with service brakes. This happened several times and the check engine light came on. Codes p2106 and p061b are showing. Vehicle has been surging for a couple of years, only slightly when shifted into gear.

The contact owns a 2006 Mercury Montego. While driving approximately 10 mph, the contact depressed the brake pedal upon approaching a traffic stop signal. The vehicle suddenly lunged forward without warning. The failure recurred whenever the brake pedal was engaged during a complete stop. The failure became progressively worse. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000. The VIN was unavailable.

We own a 2006 Mercury Montego and we have an acceleration problem that seems to be happening more and more. After starting the vehicle with the brake applied and I shift in reverse, the engine will rev up and try to force the car to move so I apply mt brakes even harder. This only lasts a few seconds. Then I shift into "drive" and with the brake still applied, it may do it again and try to take off when in fact I was not yet ready to press on my accelerator and it just wants to accelerate on it's own. .
