Consumer Description
3 ISSUES: I SAW SOMEONE ELSE POST THIS- MY BREAK PEDAL IS ALSO SOFT AND GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AFTER ANTILOCK BREAKS ARE ENGAGED (LIKE ON ICY OR WET ROADS). THERE IS NO OTHER TIME THIS OCCURS- AS IT'S THE BREAKS, I'VE BEEN VERY MINDFUL OF IT. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE BREAKS REPLACES SO I DON'T THINK IT'S ACTUALLY THE BREAKS BUT RATHER SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE BREAKING MECHANICS. SECOND, ONLY WHEN TURNING LEFT, I GET A "CLUNK" SOUND AT ABOUT 1/4 OF THE WAY THRU THE TURN. I THOUGHT THE SOUND WAS COMING FROM REAR LEFT AXLE AREA- BUT I HONESTLY CANNOT ISOLATE ITS ORIGIN. THE THIRD IS MY MOST HATED: THE REAR OF THE DRIVERS SEAT IS BREAKING DOWN- ALMOST AS THOUGH THERE'S A FRAMEWORK OF SOLDERED METAL INSIDE IN THE CORE OF THE SEAT AND THE SOLDERING IS SNAPPING APART. ONE OF THESE DAYS I'M GOING TO FALL BACK WHEN THE REAR BACKREST COMPLETELY BREAKS. I ABSOLUTELY HATE THIS- I HAVE NEVER HAD TO BUY A REPLACEMENT SEAT BEFORE AND I'VE OWNED FORD/MERCURY PRODUCTS FOR 35 YEARS.
