Noises During Shifting Problems of Mercury Mountaineer

My 2008 Mercury Mountaineer is having a strong transmission kick when down shifting and a squicking noise which I think is coming from the break and my dealer kept on reporting back to me as "unable to duplicate" the problem. This SUV were bought as brand new and I feel like that the car is going to break apart or loose my break everytime I feel those rattles. Everytime I would go to my dealer for a service, I would always mention about the problem which they can't fix!.

Also had a 2004 Lincoln aviator with 54,000 on it and had to fix the transmission, shop said there was some grove on some part in the transmission. Very expensive problems with low miles.

Had warped rotors within first 2,000 miles. Ford would only ground rotors but dealer replaced them at no charge. I have also experienced a loud, thumping noise when I am making a sharp turn to left or right at a very low speed. Also, often when putting car in reverse many times there is a large thump and vehicle appears to shift hard. Finally, when stopped on a steep hill, after removing foot from brake, vehicle rolls backwards many times.

2002 Mercury Mountaineer: we have experienced the vehicle rapidly downshifting from 4th gear to 2nd gear without warning. This has happened when driving in longer distance in city traffic. We are afraid of being rear ended. The vehicle also does not run properly when cold. When outside temperatures are in the 20?s (20 degrees on the fahrenheit scale) it will only go between 10-15 mph until warm. Wheels feel like they are spinning. The vehicle also makes a howling noise (sounds computer generated) at between 55-70 mph. The transmission was replaced at 11,000 miles. It did not solve the problems. Ford has offered a cash settlement of $6200. 00. We do have the extended warranty. Can these problems be fixed? the first issue is the one of greatest concern.
