What owners say
Tl* the contact owns a 2000 mercury mountaineer. The contact stated that the door locks became inoperable at times and took numerous attempts before the latch would open. The failure occurred several times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.
The automatic locks do not work on all the doors. I've had these locks worked on, but they continue to not work. This is a safety issue, as the doors will not open at all. The driver's side rear door will not open when you try the auto-locks, and the lock cannot be manually pulled up, thus leaving the rear-seated occupant trapped in the car. This often times with the front passenger as well. It also happens with the rear hatch.
