  I AM AN OWNER OF 97 MERCURY MYSTIQUE GS, VIN [XXX]. WHEN I DROVE MY CAR FOR SERVICE, THE MECHANICS TOLD ME TWO OF FIREHAWK GTA P205/60R15 REAR TIRES HAVE A LOT OF CRACKLES AND I SHOULD NOT DRIVE MY CAR ON HIGHWAY BEFORE I HAVE THEM CHANGED. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE TWO FRONT TIRES ABOUT ONE YEAR AGO, WHEN I CHANGED THEM AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THIS RECALLED ME RECENT FIRESTONE TIRE RECALLS. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS TYPE OF TIRE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLED MODELS. NOW I THINK THIS KIND OF DEFECTIVE IS NOT INDIVIDUAL CASE. MY CAR HAS ONLY 26452 MILES AS OF TODAY. I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST YOU INVESTIGATE THIS TYPE FIREHAWK TIRES TOO, FIREHAWK GTA P205/60R15, FOR THE SAFETY OF MILLIONS OF FORD VEHICLE DRIVERS.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P205/60R15 ).

  WHILE APPROACHING STOP SIGN, THE CONSUMER APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR.

• 06/23/2002· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  I WOULD LIKE YOU TO NOTIFY THE MANUFACTURER AND THE RESPONSIBLE GARAGE (OSMAN) ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, I MAY HAVE CHECKED THE WRONG BLOCK. I WAS TRAVELING TO TAMPA,FL. ON I-4 TO A WEDDING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A WHITE STEAM APPEARED TO BE COMING FROM THE REAR OF MY CAR, LUCKILY I HAD JUST COME UPON A REST AREA AND PULLED INTO THE AREA AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. CHECKED TO SEE WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG AND I REALLY COULDN'T TELL FROM ALL OF THE STEAM AND THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS UP ALL THE WAY. I CONTACTED MY INSURANCE CARRIER AND REQUESTED ROAD SIDE SERVICE WHICH THEY IMMEDIATELY PROVIDED FOR MY. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO A GARAGE IN KISSIMMEE, FLORIDA AND INSPECTED AND THE MECHANIC TOLD ME MY EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED AND IT WAS THE 6TH ONE HE HAD REPLACED IN THE LAST YEAR, HE CALLED THE MERCURY GARAGE AND TOLD ME THE PART WOULD BE $ 576.00 AND OTHER GASKETS NOT INCLUDED AND ANTI-FREEZE, AND TOWING AND WOULD BE AROUND $ 650.00. CAR IS STILL IN THE GARAGE, SO I AM NOT SURE WHETHER IT WAS LEFT OR RIGHT, I PICK CAR UP TOMORROW, SO WITH RENTAL AND EVERYTHING I WILL SPEND APROXIMATELY $ 825.00 FOR THIS PROBLEM. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AS THIS IS A SMALL TOWN GARAGE AND IF HE HAS DONE 6 NOW THINK OF A LARGER TOWN & GARAGE. ANOTHER GENTLEMAN CAME INTO THE GARAGE TO BUY A TRAILER HITCH AND HEARD US TALKING AND HE SAID HIS 97 GRAND MARQUIS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT COST HIM $ 800.00 FOR THE REPAIRS. THE MECHANIC SAID FORD MOTORS DEFINITELY HAS A PROBLEM IN THIS AREA.THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION ON THIS PROBLEM.*AK

  AFTER THE "ABS" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO AFTER A FEW DAYS OF INVESTIGATION SAID THAT "MM NEEDS ELECTRIC HCU HARNESS AND MODULE" WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF $1500 TO REPAIR. IT SEEMS THAT A WIRING HARNESS SHOULD LAST MORE THAT 3 YEARS, ESPICALLY ON A BRAKING SYSTEM. FORD OFFERED TO PICK UP 50% OF THE REPAIR, BUT THE PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE ABS SYSTEM SEEMS TO BE A DESIGN DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE FORD'S RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR.
