#1926 of 4469 free car by kczmudzin May 09, 2002 (1:09 pm)
I get a free car but MPV is my wife's to haul 3 children and the free replacement is always a small sedan. But if this continues, I will insist on a comparable vehicle.
#1927 of 4469 I agree kczmudzin .... by beachnut May 09, 2002 (1:25 pm)
The free car is nice, but last time they put me in a Ford Escort, BLECHHHH! We have two rugrats, one still in a car-seat, so it's not so bad for me. The local dealer uses Hertz; they don't use cars off the lot, as I'm sure most don't. Next time I'm going to push for an MPV! I know they're used in Hertz's and Enterprise's rental fleets. Hmmm, maybe that's how I'll get to test drive an '02. But I won't be to the dealer again since all my problems have been resolved, right? <dreaming again>   SC
#1928 of 4469 hesitation.... by mazda_guy May 09, 2002 (1:27 pm)
I am also experiencing hesitation but different one. When I start a van in the morning and when I drive keeping the accelerator steady or setting cruise at 40 MPH I can feel like engine is slightly misfiring. This continues until engine is wormed up. I had exactly the same symptoms with another Ford engine (V6 3.8l) on Ford Thunderbird. I never solved the problem on Tbird but to be honest I have never tried hard because I didn't think it was worthwhile to spend time and money on such a minor problem.   In Kczmudzin's case it is different story. Kczmudzin, you should definitely press the dealer to fix this problem. It shouldn't be that way. Remember, while MPV is in the shop for repair you should get free car to drive till yours is fixed.   MB
#1929 of 4469 overdrive off light and hesitation by vbnsman May 09, 2002 (3:49 pm)
A few days ago I noticed the overdrive light on my 2002 LX was blinking. The rectangle for the gear designation was missing. I adjusted the gear lever which put the rectangle back on D. The od light stopped blinking. Hasn't happened again but I have noticed that often when putting the van in drive I slip past D or come short of D. Seems like I really have to concentrate to hit D.   JR

When and where did you buy your MPV? Maybe we can find a pattern here...
#1931 of 4469 Blinking o/d by prlamz May 09, 2002 (10:18 pm)
I have noticed that having your shifter is in between positions will cause this flashing.

I am not doubting you at all. I just didn't think it could be the same, epecially since they thought it was still a 2.5l engine. Thank you for the tip.

I bought my 2002 LX 4/26 at Jay Marks in Houston, TX.

Actually, I would prefer to be doubted. We all make errors and it's always good to double check.
