Door handles keep breaking and locking mechanisms always malfunction. Either won't lock or won't unlock. Keep replacing but parts are all plastic. Also door on drivers sude the thing to hold it open also plastic and broke. Has been happening fo several years now. First time I just thought I'll replace part and I'm good. But even my sons 2010 does the same thing. $200 in a shop for 1 door handle repair

The vehicle lost control of power steering. Now displays service power steering now. I noticed that there has been a recall on other 2011 Mercury Milan, but not mine. This seems very unsafe, and not an affordable fix. This issue needs to be repaired on multiply Ford vehicles. I could cause loss of control.

The driver's side brake light began flickering after the car was parked. I was also informed after this was noticed that it flickers (gets brighter) while driving. The passenger brake light also stayed brightly illuminated last year, and I was told it would be over $500 to replace the light assembly. Fortunately, my vehicle sustained an accident and the passenger light was damaged further and replaced. Now a defect is occurring on the driver's side.

In August of this year I was pulled over by a police office who told me that my brake lights were on but not my tail lights. I took my car to the Ford dealer in rockwall to find out that the cost of this to replace both my tail lights was $1018.10. Had this officer not stopped me I would have never known this. I find it to be a very dangerous situation as the person behind me would not have known that I was stopping because the brake lights were the only thing working. Please check into this as I see a serious accident happening.

1st incident, was driving the car and it started slowing down, was still drive able but had no power to be accelerated. Once arrived at destination turned the car off and sat for a minute, tried to restart the car and it started no problem. 2nd and 3rd incidences, same problem occurred but was still en route so just pulled over to the side of the road and shut the car off then restarted.

I was on the interstate going 70 miles an hour and the engine just quit this was the second time it had happened the first time I had my grandaughter and 2 great grandchildren in the car with me and was going 60 miles an hour and the engine just stopped could not give it gas pulled over to the side of the road and shut the car off and started it back up and made it home. The second time I was on the interstate going 70 miles and hour again had to pull over to the side stop vehicle and restart, thank god I was not in the traffic at columbia Missouri in the traffic while taking my grandaughter to the doctor. The third time it happened I was taking my daughter to columbia to the doctor and again it quit while going 70 miles an hour had to pull off the busy highway and stop the car. It happened a 4th time on my husband while taking my daughter to the hospital on his way to columbia this is within 5 weeks so it is happening about one time a week both our daughter and grandaughter will be making regular trips to the hospital and I also travel a lot with the grand children who are 4 years old and 6 months old they are in this vehicle daily, and it scares me that I may not be able to get out of the way when going at these speeds and what if I'm passing another car and it just dies and I can't get out of the way? Ford motors is aware of this problem why not fix it, before someone gets killed, we take drunk driver off the road, but this is just as dangerous. For safety do I need to just park it in garage, our golf cart is more dependable, should I just park this vehicle which I just purchased I can't afford another one we are both retired we have 2 Ford vehicles at this time and drove our last Ford truck for over 10 years.
