NHTSA Complaint #10605254 — 2010 MERCURY MILAN

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70MPH WHEN MY CAR JOLTED. THEN FROM THERE IT DECELERATED VERY FAST. I PUSHED ON THE GAS AND NOTHING IT FELT LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL WITH NOTHING HAPPENING. I QUICKLY WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE BUT DUE TO BEING IN THE HIGH SPEED LANE I ALMOST GOT HIT BY 2 CARS. AS I PULLED OVER IT FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS ABOUT TO STALL. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND WAITED. I TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT DROVE FINE. ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO I HAD STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE MY CAR AGAIN FELT LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESSED ON THE GAS IT DID NOT GO ANYWHERE... EVEN THOUGH IT WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR. I SHUT IT OFF AND TURNED IT ON AND IT WAS FINE. MY CAR FEELS LIKE IT HESITATES AND BUCKS SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING ALSO. THIS SEEMS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SEEING AS I WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT YESTERDAY ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TOLD I NEEDED TO SEE IF MY VIN WAS PART OF THE CAMPAIGN RECALL TO GET THIS FIXED. I WILL SAY IF I FIND OUT ITS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH ITS LISTED IN IT THEN I WILL NEVER BY A FORD OR MERCURY EVERY AGAIN BECAUSE IT SHOWS THEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT HOW DANGEROUS SOMETHING IS AND ITS FORDS FAULT NO FAULT OF MINE! *TR
