Consumer Description

A/C COMPRESSOR FAILED WITH ONLY 46,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. SAID COMPRESSOR IS ONLY USED DURING HOT SEASON. I THINK THAT THEY INSTALLED A SUBSTANDARD/DEFECTIVE COMPRESSOR ON THIS VEHICLE. CALLED A MERCURY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. A/C COMPRESSORS SHOULD LAST MORE THAN 46K ON A VEHICLE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. THANKS. *AK
