Consumer Description

I HAVE A MERCURY SABLE 1996, MANUFACTURED IN 9/95. VIN NUMBER [XXX]. MY CAR HAS 58,000 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION IS ALMOST GONE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSIONS FOR THIS CAR AND I AM LOOKING FOR THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO TAKE WITH ME TO DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT MY CAR JERKS FORWARD WHEN AM TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION. I HAVE DONE ALL THAT I CAN TO TAKE CARE OF THIS CAR BUT NOTHING I DO HAS WORKED. THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS AND RECALLS ON THIS CAR AND I REALLY NEED HELP WITH MY RESEARCH TO PRESENT TO THE DEALER WHEN I TAKE THIS CAR IN FOR REPAIRS AGAIN. A WEBSITE IF THERE IS ONE TO HELP FIND MY VIN #. ANY RECALL INFORMATION. HELP! *NLM INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
