2002 Mercury Villager — 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 (2,114 records, model years 1995–2002) are most frequently classified under: speed control & accelerator, fuel system and brakes.
• Manufacturer communications (1,016 records, model years 1995–2002) are most frequently classified under: body & structure, powertrain (transmission & drivetrain) and visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors).

"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
