I was driving on the expressway and my truck just shut off. The car panel illuminati to a check engine light and a wrench. I had to put on my caution light and make it to the shoulder. That was scary. I sat for 10 minutes before it started back up. I've taken it to the dealership and all they did was guess what the problem could be. They said it might be the fuel pump or something electric or the computer. That's not doing me any good, because I'm still having this problem.
Had to replace transmission completely at 137,000 miles. There's been a lot of complaints about these transmissions at this mileage and Ford should be responsible for some of the cost. This is ridiculous.
The contact owns a 2007 Mercury Mountaineer. The contact stated that after shifting the transmission from park(p) to reverse(r), the vehicle failed to respond. The contact removed and reinserted the fob key in the ignition to correct the failure. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that an unknown transmission part needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The mechanic instructed the contact to pull the park release lever each time to shift the vehicle out of park (p). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 78,000.
I had to replace the transmission and some other related parts in my vehicle and I was informed by a dealership that there was a "silent recall" on this transmission and that even though Ford motor company was aware of the issues as early as 2000 they continue to install them in vehicles. If you look online you will see quite a number of complaints on this transmission. I feel since Ford knowingly kept using these transmissions and was well aware of their possible failure when they reached 130,000 miles that they should be responsible for at least a portion of he costs if indeed, not all of the cost of replacement. What happens when a car company puts out a silent recall? do I have any rights? I have already sent a certified letter to Ford motor customer relations in dearborn, mi and I have a signed receipt that they accepted my letter but they have not bothered to contact me at all. What are my options and is this something you can help me with? the first time this transmission caused a problem was when we were in 5 pm traffic on a road with a speed limit of 55 miles an hour and the car just stopped leaving my family in the middle of a busy two lane road which was very dangerous. We were finally able to get the vehicle to the shoulder. I can forward my bills and copies of online conversations regarding the failure of these transmissions.
While driving my seat will randomly move back and forth as if I took the keys out. Thought something was wrong with my transmission but after having the garage put transmission fluid in it still feels like the transmission is messed up even though the garage says the transmission is fine.
First off when I bought the vehicle the rear wiper does not work. Secondly when you put the vehicle in reverse it jolts before going into reverse. Finally it only let's you put so mich of fuel into the gas tank at a time before stopping the fuel flow into the gas tank.
2007 Mercury Mountaineer. Consumer writes in regards to acceleration and console lighting issues and problems with back windshield wipers.
When travelling in "overdrive", upon acceleration, the transmission will buck, violently depending how hard you press on the pedal. The only time this will not happen is if you control the vehicle speed with the cruise control. I haven,t had it go to the dealer as of yet for inspection, so there are no conclusions as of yet as to what may be wrong.

Vehicle's transmission "clunks" or hard shifts, when slowing down and coming to a stop, or at low speeds. Surges at stop lights, or will hesitate when the gas pedal is pushed. This has been an ongoing problem since I purchased the vehicle in 1997. I have taken it back to the dealer numerous times, and they tell me that 1. Nothing is wrong with the transmission or 2. They have downloaded a new program for the computer. I know there is something wrong, but no one will fix this. Now it's 4000 miles over warranty, and the problem is getting worse. Sooner or later this will cause an accident.
My transmission jerks as I accelerate during travel. To me it's getting worse. I have had it looked at. No codes are showing that I have a problem. But clearly something is wrong. I have done this several times, still no codes to indicate anything is wrong with my vehicle. Also my gas sensors are shot. Engine light goes in and out. My vehicle has stopped in the middle of atlanta traffic, causing problems of other vehicles traveling in the direction that I am with children. I also have the problem with backing my vehicle, it jerks before backing.
I turn my 2007 Mountaineer awd on and it accelerates, so I let it stop idleing high and if it doesnt totally shut off I then proceed to put my truck either in drive or reverse and it jerks very hard. I have already hit my garage because I was not able to stop the vehicle. I already took it to Ford and they told me that the engine light is not on so they can't do anything about it. They little wrench symbol is on though. I am so scared that I am going to end up killing someone. I wish I could afford to not drive my truck around but it is my only transportation. I have to drive my 4 kids with me and it concerns me. Some one please help, from what I see is another Toyota disaster waiting to happen.
