Mercury Mariner Hybrid Fwd 2007

• Recall 117050 [USA]: If the shift lever disengages from the transmission, a driver may be unable to shift gear positions and the indicated shift position may not represent the gear position the vehicle is in. should a disengagement occur while the vehicle is being driven, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, the gear selection indicator may show that the transmission is in the "park" position, but the vehicle transmission may not actually be in the "park" gear position. if the vehicle is not in the "park" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. a vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.

• Tire valve cracking investigation # PE08060

  On october 14, 2008, odi opened pe08-060 to investigate allegations of cracked and leaking snap-in tire valves in model year (my) 2007 vehicles manufactured by ford motor company.The valves were supplied to ford by topseal auto-parts, a subsidiary of the shanghai baolong automotive corporation in china.Valves made by topseal for aftermarket sale were the subject of two recent safety recalls by tech international (08t-018) and dill air controls (08t-028), the latter of which was investigated by odi in pe08-036 and ea08-022.The defect conditions addressed by the aftermarket tire valve recalls both involved inadequate resistance to ozone cracking due to issues with the supply of anti-ozonant chemicals to topseal for a period from july to mid-november 2006.The aftermarket valves were compounded with a blend of epdm and natural rubber, using a relatively low percentage of epdm (epdm provides inherent resistance to ozone cracking).Hence, the need for anti-ozonant chemicals and the problems with cracking when those chemicals were missing or out of specification in some lots of valves.Both recall campaigns involved inspection programs to identify and replace valves with visible surface cracking.Although the topseal valves supplied to ford also appear to have been affected by the anti-ozonant supply issues in mid to late-2006, ford indicated that its valves were made at a different topseal production line and were compounded with a higher percentage of epdm rubber to meet more stringent specifications from ford.Odis analysis of complaint and warranty data provided by ford showed that problems with cracked tire valves were significantly higher for my 2007 vehicles produced from december 2006 through march 2007.Ford responded by implementing changes in its material specifications for snap-in rubber tire valves and also increasing the quality and acceptance standards for valves imported for use in its vehicles.While the complaint and warranty claim rates are elevated for subject vehicles produced from december 2006 through march 2007, the rates of leaking valves are well below one percent of production for each of the peak months for all of the affected models.A substantial majority of the subject vehicles are equipped with tire pressure monitoring systems (tpms) which warn the driver when any tire pressures drops below 25 percent of recommended inflation pressure. As outlined in a letter to odi dated april 6, 2009, ford has agreed to send letters to owners of certain my 2007 and 2008 ford, lincoln and mercury vehicles to provide information about the cracking concern. Letters will be sent to owners of vehicles built from november 2006 through may 2007.Owners can opt for a free dealer inspection.Valves exhibiting surface cracks or air leakage related to ozone attack will be replaced by ford under its normal warranty terms.Ford expects to send the letter by approximately mid-may 2009. Based on the use of tpms in the majority of subject vehicles and the relatively low rates of repairs associated with leaking valves and resultant tire damage, odi believes that the actions ford has agreed to take will provide effective and expeditious resolution for vehicles that were built during the period when valves with inadequate resistance to ozone cracking were most likely to have been used in vehicle production.Further investigation of this matter would not be an efficient allocation of agency resources.Accordingly, this investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will continue to monitor complaints and other information relating to the alleged defect in the subject vehicles and take further action in the future if warranted.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 mercury mariner. While the contact's son was driving the vehicle, the transmission slipped and went into other gears. When the vehicle was in neutral, it shifted into drive on its own. On another occasion, the contact's son stated that the vehicle felt as if it were dragging after it jumped. In addition, "overdrive" appeared on the control panel the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was then towed to another independent mechanic who was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact to call nhtsa. The dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 152,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 mercury mariner hybrid. While driving approximately 60 mph, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard before the vehicle stopped. The anti-lock brake system and the brake indicators illuminated. The contact stated that the failure occurred five other times intermittently. Once the vehicle was turned off and restarted, the failure would stop. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (ed whittmeier ford in chico, california) for diagnostic testing, but the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 84,000. *tt consumer stated brakes fail intermittently when they fail the abs and brake light on the dash are lit up.

Passenger side rear inner fender well rusted completely through above the rear shock causing the shock to potentially break through and drop the whole suspension and cause and accident or flip over if it broke through during a turn. The rest of the vehicle hardly has any rust on it. The mariner shares the same inner sheet metal as the ford escape and there have been many complaints of this happening to escapes. My vehicle was studied at a ford investigation about 4 years ago for this problem. I was told they were working on a solution and nothing ever happened. The employee told me that the undercoating they used of these years of escape/mariners was faulty and broke down prematurely causing the inner fender exposed to the elements. This is also happening on the driver's side where the undercoating is start to break down. This is not a case of misuse by the owner but an actual design flaw and a big safety issue as this could cause a lot of harm. Luckily i heard the loud knocking from the rear end and stopped driving it.
