2000 Mercury Cougar V6 2.5L from North America
Summary:
An awesome car- one of the best mid-size cars in its class
Faults:
Nothing has gone wrong so far.
At 4 years old, the car only had 39000Km, so was barely broken in.
General Comments:
I've always had a preference for Ford/Mercury products and this car has not let me down at all in that department.
The car was in amazing shape when I bought it- the engine barely broken in, no body damage and no stains or marks on the upholstery. For that I thank the previous owner.
As for the exceptional performance of the car, I maintain my preference for Ford products.
The engine is quiet, powerful and smooth.
The car handles on corners like it's glued to the road.
The transmission shifts smooth as silk whether in the city or on the highway.
I've been getting 28 mpg on the highway and about 24 mpg in the city.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I too own a Cougar, but I really haven't had any problems with it. I did exp. problems when I would try to accelerate on to the freeway, when I asked the dealership they really didn't give me a definite answer for what was happening. I personally work for an Insurance company. I deal with a lot of cars. This one customer that I have has a cougar she told me that there are 3 sensors near the engine that you need to change. Once you changed the sensors you won't have those problems. She also told me that they are easy to change. Look in your manual it should show you were they are located.
