Consumer Description

MY CAR 2009 MERCURY MARINER PREMIER, HAS BEEN SLIPPING (TACH GOES UP BUT MY SPEED DOES NOT) SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR 2-3 YEARS AGO. THERE IS NOW ABOUT 56,000 MILES ON THE CAR. IT HAS BEEN A COLD WINTER, AND WHEN I START THE CAR AND IT IS COLD, I HAVE BEEN SEEING A LITTLE POOL OF OIL LIKE SUBSTANCE, AND WHEN I BACK UP, THERE IS A LINE OF IT. IT THEN SEEMS TO STABILIZE AND STOP. ONE DAY I WAS USING THE CAR COLD, AND THE TACK WENT UP, BUT I COULDN'T GO ANY FASTER, OR UPSHIFT. I TOOK IT TO THE GARAGE, AND THEY SAID: 6F35 TRANSMISSION - FLUID LEAK - SEAL - LEFT SIDE HALFSHAFT. THE GARAGE POINTED OUT THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MY YEAR MERCURY MARINER, AND ALSO THE FUSION, MILAN, AND ESCAPE. THE GARAGE SAID THERE WILL PROBABLY BE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I CAN MAKE A COPY OF THE BILL AND SEND IT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM, AND THE WHEEL COULD FALL OFF. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I CAN BE COMPENSATED FOR THIS ONGOEING PROBLEM WITH MY FORD MERCURY MARINER, AND OTHER FORD MODELS. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
