Consumer Description

2007 MERCURY MONTEGO SURGES IN BOTH FORWARD AND BACKWARD MODE. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND DOES THIS UNEXPECTEDLY. IS THIS GOING TO BE A TOYOTA TYPE PROBLEM WHERE IT WILL TAKE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO GET THESE CARS RECALLED ? THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY WHICH MANY PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED AND IT SEEMS FORD MOTOR COMPANY WISHES TO IGNORE INSTEAD OF ADDRESS. THIS IS TRULY A SHAME BECAUSE WE WERE SO PROUD OF AN AMERICAN AUTO COMPANY WHO REFUSED TO TAKE THE GOVERNMENT BAIL OUT , BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND STAND BEHIND A REAL PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLE. *TR
