2001 Mercury Cougar C2 review from North America
"I would never buy a Cougar again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First off I love Ford, but this one is crap. I bought a 2001 Cougar in January 2007, and every other month there's always something wrong with this car.
Ford didn't build this car right. They used parts from that crap Ford Contour and Mystique. Why did they do that; they had some problems. They built problems all over again.
Next I'm buying a Mazda 3; that car rocks, and Ford makes it too. No more Cougars for me. Don't let the looks fool you...
General comments?
The 2.5 V6 engine is crap when you have vacuum leaks, and other things.
