The contact owns a 2005 Mercury Monterey. The contact stated when they used the jack to lift the vehicle and change the tire, the jack snapped in half. This was the first time that the jack was used and it was the original jack that came with the vehicle. The failure and current mileage was 89,000. Updated 05/26/11.
My son and I were putting groceries in the back of the van and the tailgate fell on his head. The automatic lift wouldn't lift up. My son had to physically lift it up. I called the company (Mercury) and reported what happed and the gentleman said that there was no recall and he was sorry this happened and hung up. He wouldn't let me ask any questions. The tail gate doesn't open at all now.
