Purchased in June 2009 and have had problem after problem. Mountaineer premier awd. Transmission issue, feels like you're getting hit from behind when coming to a stop. Radiator leaks. Back lift gate randomly opens, won't latch. When it rains, water comes in through the interior light mount and through dvd player. Spark plugs not easily replaced, broke off and had to be towed to a shop for removal. Gas unable to be pumped properly I can put in . 25 at a time if I'm lucky. It takes 20 minutes to pump half a tank of gas. I love the features this vehicle has but this has been such a hassle.
I purchased this vehicle recently with only 40,000 miles. The car keeps stalling or dying as you may say as I drive. It will be okay for a short period of time and then just die right on the highway! once it dies once, the car will continue to do so over and over again until the engine has cooled down. I have the engine codes of p2104, p2111 and p2135 with a refere to p2101. I have brought it to several mechanics and paid well over $1,000 to fix this problem and it just continues. I am afraid my family may all die! were on 93 recently heading toward boston and my car died right at the intersection of 495. I had all my children in the car and it would not restart. I have fixed the fuel system (error code last time), had a complete tune up, and throttle sensor etc.
