MERCURY VILLAGER IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS by dieselissy

hI, LOTS TO TALK ABOUT, BUT MAKING IT QUICK!!!Well I have a 95 mercury villager, and had someone break into my vehicle with a locksmith master key and take off with it. luckilly, my van was found with no damage and have had it ever since. Lots of people have complained about a sloppy ignition key lock, and well mine was so sloppy that one day it broke and would not shut off. Had nightmare after I took ign lock off and gear on other end of lock off in column. Wasted some more time, thinking the ign switch at bottom of column was broken but no, it is a plastic rod connected from ign lock to ign switch in column. Anyone ever had this problem? taken column apart before? let me know! great van, but ignition by hand is giving me headaches!!!!

HI, i have a 98 mercury villager also. 3lt v6 with 269000kms on it. This very same problem happened to me. I took it to Can Wheel for it to be fixed, they put a new cap/rotor and coil, wires plug, catalitic convertor, still nothing was right so i took it to the ford dealer who put on a o2 sensor, still not right, then they did a diagonstic and told me a knock sensor was to blame, had that done, and still wasnt right. They paid for a rental while they called the ford hotline for help. They said to check the ground wire on the computer, the tech worked on it for a while and said they found the ground wire was in need of attention which they fixed for free. Now runs like a dream. hope this helps.

Rattles under sliding rear seat rails by haugh

99 Mercury Villager Sport, 3.3l, 139K miles. I have had rattles coming from under the sliding seat rails in my van when driving over bumps and primarily at lower speeds. I had an opportunity of placing my ear on the floor of the van with one of the captain's chairs removed while my wife was driving. The noise sounds like it is coming from under the van and not on the inside. The noise is also located closer to the front of the rails. I have not had the opportunity to raise the vehicle to look underneath as we got rear ended and are having the rear hatch replaced (almost impossible to find these new - nothing used). Other than this noise the van is fairly quiet.
 
Has anyone experienced this noise?
