Mercury Sable Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Safety Report | Aug 15, 1999
Reported on Aug 15, 1999
| THE RIGHT FRONT ENGINE MOUNT HAS FAILED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I DID NOT BUY EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE WITH THIS CAR. THE FIRST FAILED 90 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM NOW ON THE FOURTH FAILED MOUNT. THESE ARE FLUID FILLED AND OBVIOUSLY NOT DESIGNED TO HANDLE THE TORQUE APPLIED. THEY START BY LEAKING AND THEN FOLLOW WITH ENGINE LIFT AND BUMP DURING ACCELERATION. ALL REPLACEMENTS HAVE BEEN PURCHASED THROUGH NAPA AUTO PARTS DEALERS IN MY AREA. I HAVE ASKED FOR A SOLID REPLACEMENT, BUT HAVE BEEN INFORMED THEY DO NOT EXIST. | |
