#497 of 500 Mercury Mariner = Lots of Problems!! by KLH547 Jan 05, 2009 (4:09 pm)
I have an '08 Mercury Mariner V6 that I leased in May of '08. I have not owned an American car in some time and this one was leased very very quickly with very little research. The purchase of a leased car fell through at the last minute and I had to find a car and fast! Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had experienced any of the following? the passenger doors - front and back - were taking on water, soaking the carpet and underneath the plastic edge. All of the door seals had to be replaced - only had the car for 4 mos. at the time. The car also has the reverse sensing system - now periodically, when I put the car into reverse, it starts going off even if nothing is there. I have gotten out and checked and nothing. Also, I cannot get the gas tank to fill beyond 3/4 of a tank. No matter what, I have even overfilled the tank and no dice. In addition to the gas tank, the mileage per gallon gauge which I reset everytime I fill the tank swings wildly, and I mean wildly! Anywhere from 9 miles per gallon to 42! Which I know is so not true!! Any feedback would be great!

Replying to: cammys2 (Jun 17, 2008 3:17 pm) I know your message is old, but we also have a 05 Mariner FWD 4 cyl. had the same problem replaced the idle air control valve and had the same problem. Did you ever get the problem solved? If so, how? If not how has the car been since your post? We like the car and want to take good care of it so that it will last for a long time. Any information would be helpful. Replies to this message: counselor4444 (Aug 24, 2009 3:05 am)

Replying to: paulcarter (May 18, 2009 3:58 pm) Having the same problem here on my 05 Mariner V6 FWD with 86K mi. Car stalls sometimes when coming to a stop. Brought it into my local dealership (Fette Ford) and they changed everything from spark plugs to fuel injection tubes. Cost me $1400. Now, one week later, still stalling. I am taking it back in tomorrow.   When the stalling first began, I found that Ford had released a technical service bulletin (bulletin 07-5-6) for the 05 Ford Escape and 05 Mercury Mariner models that state that sporadic stalling may be caused by a failing torque converter. I told the dealership this when I went there last week. They said no. I guess they will have to re-evaluate this. I am not paying them another $1400. This is ridiculous.
#500 of 500 inside cabin all full of water by tiffame Sep 23, 2009 (12:48 pm)
We had a bunch of rain yesterday and the inside of my Merc Mariner flooded on the driver side floorboard!!!! Has anyone else had this happen? and if so, What in the world do I do? I took it to the dealership and their run around story is, there is a drain plug in case of big spills inside the cabin happens they can unplug it and drain whatever liquid.....But could not tell me where the plug is....So, I know they are full of it but need to know how to get it fixed..... Please anyone who has any info...   Thank you
