| Description of the problem | I was driving down the road and all of a sudden my vehicle pulls n hesitates to go, as i look in my dash a little wrench pops up.. My car lost all it's power and would not go. I set on my hazards and turn my vehicle off and back on and it was fine.. I call the mercury dealership and she tells me as long as the wrench did not pop up with a check engine sign i was fine. Well weeks go by my vehicle was fine, then out of the blue it does the same thing, wrench pops up in the dash and my vehicle goes in limp mode... Mind you this strikes without warning and is very dangerous! There is no indication when and here it will happen. I take it to the place i've always taken my vehicles and they tell me it's fine, no codes in the diagnostics.. So i pick my vehicle up, two weeks later my car stalls out with a wrench and a check engine light. I've almost been slammed from behind twice. I take it to the dealership and they are trying to charge me 389. 00 to fix a problem that has obviously been a manufactor error. This by far is not a preventive maintenance issue, this is by far a dangerous situation. |
