Consumer Description

MY 2005 MERCURY MONTEGO WITH JUST OVER 18, 000 MILES SUDDENLY WENT DEAD, WHILE PARTIALLY PULLED OUT IN TRAFFIC. IT WAS TRACED TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION. NO HARM OCCURRED, BUT I AM GOING TO GET RID OF THE CAR. I ALSO NOTICED INFO ON THE INTERNET WITH CVT PROBLEMS. I SEE TOO THAT FORD PULLED OUT THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS ON ITS NEW MODELS FOR THE SABLE (WHICH WAS THE MONTEGO) AND TAURUS. I HAD TO PAY JUST OVER $1900 ON THIS REPAIR--WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE IS FAIR, AS IT APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT WITH THE CVT. *TR
