TAMARA RECALL. ON 5/26/15 THE MAN I BOUGHT MY 04 MERCURY MONTEREY VAN 4.2L HAD PROBLEMS WITH IT SURGING WHEN STOPPING OR BARELY MOVING. FOUND BAD TRANS,HAD IT REBUILT, FOUND MOTOR MOUNT, TRANS RANGE SENSOR BAD ALSO TORQUE CONVERTER AND OVER HAUL KIT,3 SHIFT SOL AND REVERSE BOOST VALVE. 6 MONTHS LATER I BOUGHT IT.ON DEC7,2016 MY VAN DIDN'T SEEM RIGHT TO ME I COULD TELL IT HAD A SKIP AND SEEMED SLUGESHED WHEN IT WOULD SHIFT. MY CHECK ENGINE,AND TRANSAXLE LIGHT CAME ON AS LONG AS I KEEP IT IN 1,3OR DRIVE IT DON'T COME ON OR BLINK SO I LOOKED IN THE OWNERS GUIDE TO SEE IF I COULD FIND SOMETHING. SEEN WHERE IT HAS TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION, TRANSAXLE, AND ALOT MORE. SO I GOT ON THE FORDS WEBSITE SEEN A LIST OF RECALLS SO I PUT MY VIN# IN AND SURE ENOUGH THERE I WAS.I HAVE ALMOST GOT HIT WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET BACK HOME. IF MY VAN HAD COMPLETELY WENT OUT AND STARTED DO ALL OF THAT WHEN I WAS GETTING ON OR OFF THE HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE,ON A TRAIN TRACK IT COULD OF BEEN BAD IT. IT COULD OF KILLED US.AND IT SEEMS LIKE WHAT IS GOING ON NOW SO I WILL SAY TRANSAXLE, POWER TRAIN, TOQUE CONVERTER AND OVER HAUL KIT,3SHIFT SOL, AND BOOST VALVE IF I WAS A GUESSING ALL I KNOW IS I WANT MY VAN AGAIN BACK RUNNING RIGHT AGAIN.
