1 Power Window problem of the 1998 Mercury Mystique

Failure Date: 07/01/2014

1998 Mercury Mystique. Electrical sub-harness connector problems. The consumer stated he took the vehicle to his mechanic, because the ac wasn't cooling properly and the vehicle would over heat, while it was on. The vehicle has two fans in the front and they found the cooling fan melted and the sub-harness connector burned up. In addition, they showed the consumer the part of the sub-harness with the insulation just falling off the wire. They had to replaced the fan motor unit and had to splice in a fan connector and wire into the rest of the sub-harness, because for said the sub-harness was obsolete and not available. While it functions, the check engine light has since illuminated for a cam shaft position sensor, which the consumer was informed it was related to the sub-harness. Also, the lower control arms, ball joints, front struts, rear struts and rear mounts, numerous O2 sensors, radio antenna, rack and pinion, drivers side power window and switch controller were all replaced. The engine and transmission mounts also had to be replaced.

3 Power Window problem of the 1996 Mercury Mystique

Failure Date: 05/15/2003

I replaced the alternator last summer and I had to replace it again this summer. I had to replace my tail lights twice the brakes is always giving me problems. The window on the drivers side doesnt roll down. When it rain the floors get wet. I have a hard time putting it into gear and taking it out of gear. It stalls to cut on and drives really rough. I had to replace the tires numerous times. The speedometer went out and the temperture gauge as well. The ac dosent work and it takes a while for the heat to warm up car. Something need to be done about this.

6 Power Window problem of the 1996 Mercury Mystique

Failure Date: 05/10/2000

When trying to put the driver side window down, you have to keep pushing the button until it finally decides to go down. When putting it up it is the same way, but it takes forever to get it up. Sometimes you have to open the door or pull on the door and then it may go up and then again it may not. I have taken it to crane Lincoln Mercury to get it looked at and in the process the rolled it down and could not get it back up. They told me they finally got the window up but the motor would not hold it up and it fell back down. Now I am forced to by a new motor for my window because it won't stay up. I have been very pleased with my car up until this . I am very upset about all of this because it is costing me over $300 to get it fixed, I have to have it fixed because I can't drive with my window down all of the time because of the rain. Thank you, amanda deloney.
