Problem overview

Some Mercury Mountaineer owners report experiencing suspension problems, particularly with the front suspension, which has been a common concern over the years. These issues may arise after installing a new radiator and ball joints, and any unusual noises or handling characteristics following the installation could indicate underlying problems that require prompt attention. Additionally, some owners report malfunctions with electric windows and locks, which, while separate from the suspension issues, may suggest broader electrical problems within the vehicle. These malfunctions could stem from wiring issues or faulty switches. Given the complexity of these concerns, it is advisable for owners to seek a professional inspection to accurately diagnose and address both the suspension and electrical system issues, ensuring the vehicle's performance and safety are restored.
