Description of the problem | In april 2014 my girlfriend was driving our 2006 mercury mariner when it shut off while driving. Was told to reset computer which we did. The next day it shut off in an intersection. Luckily no accident but under no circumstances should the car computer shut the car off while driving!!!!!! Was wiring harness for hybrid battery. The next month she was driving and lost all power steering while driving. Luckily no accident. Took it to dealer, told would need to replace entire steering column or sensor. Was sensor ($1129). Why is this year not covered by recall for this issue and 2008 on is???? Thank you. |
