2001 Mercury Cougar review from North America

The first day I drove this car off the car lot (carmax), it cut off within a mile. at first I figured it was my shifting, due to being a manual. after a week of driving and it repeatedly cutting off while going down the interstate at 60+ mph, my breaks and steering locking up while chauffeuring kids around.. I decided to look up what was happening online. come to find out there was a fuel delivery module recall... I took it to carmax and told them what it had been doing and there was a recall on the fuel delivery module.. which I was upset due to they had not fixed it before they sold it to me.. they fixed it. after 2 weeks. make sure you buy one that has already had this component fixed!!

At 78,000 miles my sunroof broke. I have rarely used it in the year that I have had the car. only one side of it would slide back. currently getting that fixed.

Whenever going fast down the interstate and hitting the brakes, I get a weird shuddering nose from the front tires.

My front seats are starting to fade from the sun.

I've also noticed that during the summer when I fill my car up, it reads a full tank at 320 miles, during the winter it reads about 420.

The car hesitates when shifting into certain gears.

The overall look of the car is sporty and cute.
