THIS IS THE CAR THE 1969 MERCURY COUGAR ALWAYS SHOULD HAVE BEEN.    evil, mean, sleak and sinister.  this southern california cougar has gotten the full “driven” treatment.  murdered high gloss black paint,  de-badged, lowered front and rear, california rake,  18” staggered wheels with fresh, aggressive tread tires.  features the famous ford 351 powerplant, coupled to floor shifted automatic transmission for comfort as well as performance.  full flow headers lead into custom 2 1/2 ” metered and equalized exhaust.  flowmaster dual exhaust and bolonga sliced exhaust out the back give this car a great sound and look.  18” staggered chrome ridler 5 spoke wheels have timeless good looks, and look great burning rubber.  this solid and original california car looks good coming and going, with operating hidden headlights, and famous sequential turn signals in the rear.  the odometer shows less than 100k miles on this example.  currently registered, licensed and titled in California, ready for the road.  too many extras to mention, so we compiled a video for your review.  with high flow chrome air cleaner covering the 4bbl carb, aluminum intake manifold,  color coordinated plug wires, along with cobra valve covers lets everyone know you have some ponies under the hood.  power steering and originally fitted with air conditioning (most parts are still in place).  a grant wood steering wheel and a fresh dark red seats, headliner, carpeting and trim adorns the great period look of this updated “resto-mod”.  this car was built to look clean, and leave off all the bolt on scoops, wings, decals and “boy-toys” lots of the other cars have.  this car shows off the muscular clean mature look that the car should have had from day one.  but day one is now here………..and here is your chance to own/drive/show it.  combine that with a modern am/fm mp3 bluetooth / hands free phone pioneer remote control stereo, and you have your modern conveniences built right in already

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
