Transmission Noise Problems of Mercury Mountaineer

I purchased a 2004 Mercury Mountaineer first the rear liftgate plastic broke and theres a crack by the emblem on some ocasions when put in reverse it makes a loud bang noise or when starting to accelerate but the biggest problem is that on the highway up to 50mph and over there seems to be a rattle under the engine and it gets louder when mph is higher im not sure what it is but im really worried that it maybe a transmission problem and if this problem isnt recalled me and my family plus others are in really big danger its a family car so im starting to worry for my family and there safety these vehicles need to go on inspection and soon so these dosent lead to any accidents.

Automatic transmission- this transmission is horrible a few times I noticed the severe noise and jerk when I went to reverse. I thought perhaps it was me. On christmas eve I went to pull away from stop light and car started to accelerate then slowed down I gave it a little gas and it jerked me so hard it hurt my neck (which is still bothering me today). The od light came on and check transmission. Repair cost $2,7000, basically everything went bad. After hearing from numerous people this is a problem that Ford is aware of. They even went so far as to correct it for future models but has yet to perform a recall on 2005 Mountaineers and explorers. As Ford was aware of this problem corrected it for future models they should be liable and a recall notice should be forthcoming. Anyone who has experienced this should get full refund of monies paid. Now to address the cracking around the Mercury emblem on the lift gate. Ford is aware of this problem and has changed it for future models, but instead of stepping up and correcting pass models they sweep it under the rug. A full investigation into both of these concerns as with transmissions someone could easily be fatally injured.

2006 Mercury Mountaineer. The transmission has problems. It punches in and out of gears, makes a loud grinding noise and pulls the car to the left. It has problems going into reverse. It does not happen all the time but I would say about 3 to 4 times a week. It is not safe to drive when the car does this. I am driving my 1 year old in this car and I have to concentrate so hard to make the car go straight and to put minimal pressure on the gas pedal so it doesn't jerk us too hard. It is at the dealership now and from what I have read online they will try to put a bandaid on the problem until the warranty runs out! this car only has 26,000 miles on it! I just bought it used about 8 months ago.

2002 Mountaineer stalls, transmission control assembly, main control valve, and gasket had to be replaced. The lift gate was sticking, and while closing it, the glass shattered, the glass was recalled, and was suppose to have been fixed. The oil light illuminated. The trim on the front door fell off while driving. There was a grinding noise coming from the rear wheels, it was determined that there was severe rust on the brake componets, the park brake shoes fell apart due to corrosion, the rear wheel bearing and knuckle assembly had excessive rust.
