1999 Mercury Cougar review from North America

Something happened w/the air conditioner/belt that caused the car to not start at all, had to get towed to dealer at a price tag over $900 only 3 months after "new/used" purchase.

Brakes completely rusted and had to be replaced after about 60,000 miles.

Sunroof stopped working after about 45,000 miles which pissed me off since it's one of the main reasons I bought the car : (

Wheel alignment went (don't know if was my fault or not) But caused those 4 very expensive tires to be replaced AGAIN.

Passenger side window will go down, but will not go back up.

Check engine light sporadically on.

Wrench at the top on since 40,000 miles.

Shocks/struts/suspension out of whack.

Something in the back causes a great noise whenever I go over a bump.

And my turn signal stopped working, had to get the computer replaced because it was "Corroded" and the mechanic said it was bound to happen again...ugh.

I love the look, it's comfortable and very cute. I have the whole package on my car, 6 cd changer, leather seats, bucket seats, power sunroof, spoiler, power everything, I love it. But really...I'm ready for a brand new car that might not be as cute. It doesn't run so softly anymore and Really I've had problems since I bought it at 3 years old.
