1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 11/30/2020

I bought a used 1999 Mercury Sable GS with the u type 3. 0l v6 engine 2 months ago. Just recently I noticed the car wanting to lunge forward while holding the brake at stops. Then a few days later whenever I start the car it lunges forward. Nothing dramatic but definitely noticeable. I started looking online to see about a recall and 1 was present a long time ago. Is it to late to get my car checked or how to see if it was ever serviced or called for the recall.

2 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 05/12/2002

Speedometor keeps going down to 0, sometimes engine races, and vehicle will slow down, like it's in neutral. Please provide any further information.
