We purchased a used (28k miles) 2002 mercury villager in 8'06.as i later found out this is a sister to the nissan quest.within 2 months it started to have periodic starting problems - meaning all power seemed ok, but when the key was turned, only a clicking sound was heard.we discovered sometimes this could be corrected by opening & closing the doors, or cycling the locks.after searching the web i found others with what appeared to be a similar problem and what others claimed the fix was.it seems an anti-theft ignition inhibit relay is the culprit.it seems to me failure of this relay should be be in a fail-safe fashion.nonetheless, is there a factory tsb for this issue from mercury or nissan?is there a part available to correct this problem?already my wife and kids have been stranded due to this problem and i imagine someone somewhere may have an actual emergency.
The contact owns a 2002 mercury villager. The contact stated while driving approximately 10 mph making a turn, the engine stalled without warning. The vehicle restarted immediately. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 78,000.
Engine failure due to sudden loss of oil.
While driving for an extended period of time using cruise control, the speedometer suddenly failed at an approximate odometer reading of 61,000 miles.the speedometer had also failed on my previously owned '93 villager for short periods but the current failure on my '02 villager continued throughout the following 7 hours of my trip home.subsequently, the "service engine soon" indicator lit up and the engine now briefly loses power upon startup and initial acceleration. I will call dealership in the morning to see if this problem is covered.i am very upset that my relatively young van has now lost value due to uncertified mileage on the title when i want to sell it.because it happened in the midst of my trip, i was delayed while checking the source of the indicator light and had to drive home without knowing my true speed.
The consumer took the vehicle in for the 15000 mile check up and because the brake light was on. While driving the consumer pressed the brake pedal and the pedal went to the floor.the dealer replaced parts but the consumer does not know which parts were replaced. Please describe further. *nlm
During a vacation trip on november 21, 2006, the "proportional valve" on our 2002 mercury villager began to apply the brakes while we were on the interstate.there was no warning light, just a gradual increase in the power necessary to keep going.by the time we realized it, the entire brake system had overheated, resulting in over $1,000 in dealer repairs.our contention is that this is a manufacturing defect and the vehicle should at least have been considered for some form of reimbursement.we also wanted to make the nhtsa aware of this in case other consumers encounter similar problems.as it was, the entire cost of the repair was for our account.

Motor mount must be replaced do to failure. Any acceleration or shifting causes the engine to shake. This shaking causes a strong vibration throughout the van.i was quoted $200 to replace the mount.

The front of the vehicle experienced a sever vibration.
Front suspension ball joints are prone to excessive wear and failure. Joints replaced at 28,000 miles are now failing again at 68,000 miles. There is no service required on these joints.wear causes excessive tire life loss, vibration in the steering and potential loss of steering control.
