Read complaints for MERCURY MOUNTAINEER (2010)
While driving the mountaineer i was slowing for a stoplight shortly after starting it up (had driven about 1/3 mile).the engine suddenly started to speed up and required significant extra braking force to come to a stop.i put the car in neutral and the engine ran at about 3,300 rpm for about 10 seconds.this is the third time this has happened.the first time the thermostat was replaced.the second time the throttle body was replaced.the third time the vehicle was checked but no defect could be found.the second time i also put it in neutral and it also ran at about 3,300 rpm for about 10 seconds.
At high speeds, the car stalls. It also stalls at stop lights. This happens repeatedly, and ford cannot figure out what is wrong with it.
Pulled into parking space, placed shifter in park, turned off ignition, released brake and vehicle rolled backwards as if not in park. Attempted to restart vehicle and no response. Set parking brake. Could not get vehicle to lock into park, shifter moved regardless of brake on or not and would not start. Moved shifter through entire range of gears and returned to park, vehicle still would not start and park would not hold. Called dealer and was told to have it towed in. Returned to vehicle and tried once more and it started and proceeded to respond normally. Vehicle taken directly to dealer who could not find any problem or cause of preceding situation.on two subsequent dates (most recent 5/25/2012), vehicle was backed into a parking space, placed in park and ignition turned off. When an attempt to restart vehicle was made there was no response. Park appeared to hold normal, but unable to engage ignition. Dash lights, chimes and all electrical components appear to work normal but was still unable to engage starter. Again started process to have vehicle towed to dealer. After approximately 30 minutes to an hour of sitting (with no other action) vehicle started normally. Again dealer at a loss for cause and cannot effect repair since unable to recreate problem.concern is for transmission/ignition interlock failure or other action that could result in damage or injury.

The contact owns a 2010 mercury mountaineer. While the contact's wife was driving 70 mph, she depressed the brake pedal and the front driver's seat started to slide backwards and the interior lighting illuminated. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The driver lost control of the vehicle as it made a 360 degree spin. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
Rear differential is filling with water pass the fill plug.this is a garage kept car and never off road nor dirven in deep water.first time discovered at 22000 miles and the dealer replace the pinion seal and oil, but could not find the cause.differential now making noise and again full of water past the fill plug.searched online and found several people with the same problem with ford products.dealer cannot find or not willing to find the cause.called ford and they offer little to no support.guess they are waiting for the differentials to lock up at highway speed and kill a dozen of so people.

There is a manufacturing fault with the position of the brake and the gas pedal.it is very easy to move the right foot from the gas to the brake and leave enough of the foot on the gas at the same time.it allows the brake to be pressed but also applies gas to give a vehicle a surge while braking.had the same situation with a 2001 ford taurus and ford issued a recall notice to have the placement of pedals changed.

Front brakes started automatically seizing up random times and speeds due to a defective wheel bearing that disrupted the antilock brake sensors. This created an extremely dangerous driving issue. Ford refused to take responsibility or pay for any repairs because it was outside the warranty period.
