Just noticed a small gas leak happening over the past week or so. Gas just intermittently drips behind left rear wheel regardless of whether the tank is full or partially empty. Cannot see where the leak is coming from.

My inertia switch was broke , 1st on July 21, 1999 and left me stranded in the middle of a busy intersection. I was told by covey dealership that my car was fixed and ready to go. I advised them I was taking my car out on the road and wanted to make sure I would not be stranded in the middle of the desert, they assured me all was "fine". . . Nine days later, I was stranded 400 miles from home, with the same exact problem, the inertia switch. I was told that the inertia switch should "never" break down and it happened to me two times in nine days. I am very frustrated with Ford/Mercury, as I have incrued expenses of $500 while being stranded out of town and they refuse to acknowledge their responsibility in this matter. I have spent countless hours writing letters, and making phone calls, to no avail. I just think consumers should be aware of Ford/Mercury incompetant customer service department.
