2000 Mercury Cougar V6 review from North America
"Love hate situation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Stalled in the middle of a busy intersection one week after buying it.
Two weeks after I bought it, the sunroof track broke. I had it replaced a month later, and the second one did the same thing. It is now screwed shut.
Instrument panel is a Christmas Tree all of the time for no reason.
Hit something in the middle of the road and blew two tires in one night, very expensive tires, and only made by one manufacturer.
General comments?
I love the looks of the car and have had many comments on the style.
It handles corners beautifully and speed gets away from you.
Not too good in the snow, traction control makes no difference.
Problems never seem to stop coming.
