2 issues that the local Ford dealer said they could not assist.(jordan Ford)upper shock busing from P/S rear shock came out causing shock rod to make excessive noise and contact body, as well as rust from P/S inner wheel wheel. Only that location.appears to be a rustproofing issue.rest of truck in great condition. Soon to be a safety issue if I do not have repaired.

After placing the car in drive, when pressing on the accelerator to move the car the pedal would not allow me to depress it. The pedal began to work after stomping down which causes the car to jerk forward suddenly. Again after coming to a stop at the light and making a right hand turn, after releasing the brakes and stepping on the accelerator, the pedal again would not depress until stomped on. This typically happens when the vehicle has been out in the cold and after it has been turned off for an extended time period (overnight).

2006 Mercury Mariner was bought with the intention of only costing $15,000. Consumer states that when he got ready to pay off the vehicle the dealer stated that he also owed for tax. He would like to be reimbursed $500 which was his down payment.

I only had my car 4 days when driving on the garden state parkway at approximately 60 mph on a Sunday with my grandchildren in the car. Luckily, I was in the slow lane when the SUV just shut off. I was able to pull onto the shoulder and restart the car. I was near an exit and proceeded down the ramp. The car again shut off at the bottom on the ramp. The check engine light stayed on. I called the dealer the next day (Monday) and brought the car in on Tuesday. It is now Friday and I still do not have my car.
