1999 Mercury Mountaineer review from North America
"Reliable and excellent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car seems to have an electrical problem. Stereo lights doesn't work, and the CD player stopped working.
Rear lights don't work due to an electrical issue.
General comments?
Very reliable car. Other than the electrical problem, the engine is powerful and reliable.
Leather interior gives it a nice interior look, and it's comfortable.
Runs fantastic in the snow.
Great amount of room for a number of people or transporting pets. Back seats go down to make for extra storage room.
Highly recommend this car to anybody, and am considering buying a newer Mountaineer myself when this one starts having expensive issues that need fixing.
As old as the car is, and as long as I've owned it, it has never been a headache to own, and shows no signs of being one any time soon.
