I own a 2005 Mercury Mariner premier that was purchased in 2005, the vehicle had a very bad roar inside while driving down the road. I would like to know if there was a way to make it stop making that roaring sound. According to other complaints I have read the other customer S have not had any help at there local dealerships, neither did I.

I have been having problems with my vehicles and all 4 of my tires since July 06. My vehicle/ steering wheel/front end is shaking & vibrating terribly. I was told by three different authorized tire/dealerships that all four of my tires are bad, they are cupped & feathered and the tread is not good. The dealership where I bought my vehicle says it is not their responsibility to provide me with new tires (my vehicle is still under warranty) the tire manufacturer will only pay for 1/2 the retail cost because they say it is not their problem either. I am very upset. The vehicle is unsafe to drive, and I am afraid I am going to get hurt or someone else will., I do not know who to trust and could really use some help.

We have taken our marinar back at least 2 times complaining of outrageous road noise while driving. This is the worst vehicle I have ever driven or ridden in with this type of noise including diesel trucks. The dealer says it is the tires but they are the original tire that came with the vehicle (continentals). I will not drive the vehicle due to this road noise. Friends that have been in the vehicle with me can not believe the decibel level of the road noise and that it is unbearable. I have a friend of the family who also has a marinar and he also has taken his vehicle back to the dealer 3 times for this road noise to know avail. Can you advise me on what to do about this situation.
