2010 Mercury Mountaineer — reported problems

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

• Owner complaints (3,978 records, model years 1997–2010) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), tires & wheels and body & structure.
• Manufacturer communications (2,729 records, model years 1997–2010) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), engine and electrical system.
• Investigations (47 records, model years 1997–2010) are most frequently classified under: speed control & accelerator, electrical system and steering.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
