Great video! I have a 2009 Mercury Mariner with 200k miles. I have had to replace the blower motor resistor twice and the blower motor itself once. I am currently experiencing the ignition problem. You don't need to necessarily get the ignition cylinder replaced because if you slightly push the cylinder in while turning it works just fine. Mine has been like this for a few years but the problem may get worse.

Best purchase i ever made was an 11 that was smacked in the front, salvage title. Mileage said 0 because the battery cable was cut, turns out it only had 48k on it and i got it for 1200 bucks after fees and shipping. Bought a back end wreck for 600 bucks (scrapped it after for 250) needed another 750 in parts on top of that and shes perfect after i fixed and painted it. Only got about 3 grand in it all done

LOVE my 2010 Mercury Mariner Premier it has been great through Maine winters. I do have the U joint issue and have fought ford on this ....They said it was no longer a recall issue as they had worked on the recall a couple years ago. I have dealt with rust issue living in NE but other than that it has been a very trustworthy vehicle...lagging until u get over 40 but great otherwise!

I've got a 2010 that was generously gifted to me by a friend and the biggest issue I have with it is having to leave the driver window down about four inches so I can reach inside and open the door. (She was t-boned pretty bad right on the door). Long story short, she got a sparkling brand new little SUV, and gave me the t-boned one since I was in need of a vehicle. Sweet girl, she is)! I have none of these issues with it so far and thank goodness, I'm literally living in it right now and pretty comfortable. 😊 I've never, ever been a Ford person, but this little tyke is a tough cookie and I have to give credit where credit was due! I found this video trying to find one about how to fix the driver's side door enough (not replace it) to be able to roll the window down all the way and fix the handle so it can be opened from the outside. Oh! And I almost forgot! And this is a biggie and noticed it wasn't mentioned in your video.... If the battery dies and your doors are locked and windows are up, it could be a VERY complicated issue to get in the vehicle to access the hood latch to get a jump.... I've had this happen to me a few times and I don't know what I would have done had it not for me always leaving my window down a little bit. Even unlocked, the door resists A LOT to being opened from the inside. I also noticed, that even if your doors are UNLOCKED (Even the rear window where I *used* to keep the jumoer cables, it will not open at all). and the battery dies, none of the doors will open for you. One of the biggest reasons I was trying to find a way to fix this door. Do you have any thoughts or advice about that situation? I was told if this happens I would need to hook jumpers to the starter itself or just install hoodpins 😂 Might not be such a bad idea lol 😅 Enjoyed the video and just thought I'd add my few cents. I really have very little complaints about my vehicle and very grateful to have it! 💖

This is good but you should research your issue further. These are all common issues. 1. Steering U-joint can be replaced separate of the steering shaft. Yes Ford does say to replace the shaft with the joint, but If you're watching this, you can probably only afford to replace the failed part, as that is what is still available. (Ford TSB 10-13-2) Yes you should get it aligned along with steering angle/torque sensor. (which may also need replacement). 2. This No-start is not typically a bad ignition cylinder as it is a bad Ignition Lock Module. This is the switch rotated by the ignition cylinder. These tend to fail in 08-10 models. 3. Blower resistor. Many owners, my self included, have had to replace the blower resister at least once as they fail early on this vehicle. You don't need to out-right replace the blower b/c of this. 4. no comment. 5. Depending on the trouble code, you may not have to replace the entire steering column when replacing the steering angle sensor. Hint. There have been reported issues of Ford charging you for it if the parts fail after performing the prophylactic software update. (Ford Recall 14S05) Check out the forum escape-city.com for more.

Thank you very much for that information, I am experiencing one of those, I was thinking something to do with the ignition switch and you confirmed it.

This was very enlightening. I just had a steering column u joint put on my car. I’d like to know how do I set the automatic lights to come on . I just recently bought the suv. Please help, I’m a senior that still tries to learn on my own.. thank you very much. Ms. Bell

appreciate the video with out all the dramatics from the past... good job

Excelente explicación. Muchas gracias a ud

Wonderful. Thanks.where do I put the transmission fluid because it’s showing that it’s low

Hey can you help me with finding the throttle body sensor so I can clean it, on a 2008 Mercury Mariner? Tks

I like the information that you provided

I really appreciate your videos and learn a lot about different car issues. I would like to add a suggestion. When you are discussing an issue with a particular car, can you please include at what mileage the issue most likely will appear, if possible. Thank you and continued success.

My wife has a 2015 Ford escape. She says she hears a clicking from time to time when she drives the truck. However no one can seem to find it. An I've also heard the click yet don't see any tells of where it could be. Are the axles tend to be the point of this click from natural play in them?

Cuales son las mercury marine que si salen buenas??

awesome video !

You should see if you can do the 5 ford flex issues. Love these videos, my mariner had the ignition switch and torg sensor problems already.

I have a 09 mariner 2.5L an I replaced the lower control arms on it last weekend now I'm getting a weird howling noise goin down the road until I stop could it be a wheel bearing or the tires until I get it aligned next week

The steering shaft issue, would that be the upper or lower steering shaft?

Love watching your vids. Always great info and very animated. Always learn something new!!!

I just purchased a used 2010 Mercury Mariner and for some reason when it rains I have electrical failure. Can you tell me what the problem could be? I'm thinking that maybe there's something under the hood that should be covered up that's not but 🤷

So i have a question, i have this car and when i go over speed bump or pot holes it sound like the bottom of the car is falling out🤣. I replaced the struts what else could it be?

My 2011 lasted a long time, BUT I think it thought I stole it, never trusted me to shift from park to drive, also shut off my screen often. I had to override it the entire time just to drive, but it got the job done at least

Changing the steering u joint is wicked easy. I’m not a mechanic and it took me 10 min

This helped a lot thank you!!!!

You guys are great.

I've a problem with water leaking at times and radiator is not keeping the fluids in the compartment. Can you please help?

Recomendarías ese tipo de vehículos????

Good video and good work, it was very interesting. Thank you /////////////////////////

I have a 2008 Mariner.Suddenly it started to drip oil in driveway,then stopped. Undercarriage was wet,dipstick 3.5 quarts short.drip only happens after driving .Is there an unused distributor plug that leaks on top of engine?

Only issue I had was the electric steering module went out. 2008 model year. Loved that suv then the driver caliper front had to be changed out. But purchased at 69725 and sold at 149750 .

Do these have the same rust issues as the Ford rust bucket escape?

Hi. I have a 2011 Mercury Mariner Premium with a touch screen. I just replaced the battery. Now my clock is not working. I tried to set it but all the features on my screen are grayed out so I'm not able to change the time. All other features are back to normal. Please help.

This is great!!! Can you fix my car..

Do the first gen Ford Fusion next.

I have an 2008 mercury mariner while driving the traction control came on and the steering wheel locked up for a few seconds then went back to normal the light went out then back on again a short time later and again the wheel temporarily locked up any ideas

Good job

This guy is my favorite))

I always wanted one of these

lol id love to see what issues you come up with for a 1st gen. i could make a top 5 video on a 1st gen easily

Hello my steering wheel is very hard to turn turning is there a eletric steering or something where fluid is stored

Thank you, look wife just got a mariner, from her sister, it has a like winning.,sound but tran fluid is looing good , can you advise what it might be? Lar n lisa

From the official vehicle documents: Service interval for the 6F transmission (taken from VIN) for a 2010 Escape XLT is to change fluid at 150,000 miles. There does not appear to be a filter. This does not sound good to me. Unfortunately, there are no service schedules per component - you have to look at all the scheduled service times and find those pertaining to the transmission.

Thx a million

Was thinking about buying one used. 103K+ miles, and for 5,500. Decent deal? Want a good 5-10 years out of it. I take care of my properties.

Very very goood!!!

I am about to give you what's been driving a lot of people mad with the 2010 Mercury not starting, every 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, month etc. Then you're stranded. Everybody thought that it was the alarm system the PAS? That was the symptom here is the disease and the Cure. If I could charge for this I would, because I would have paid 300+ bucks to get this fixed, it probably cost me, literally three thousand, over the course of three or four years. (E. CONNOLLY 23 SPOON SQ. FRONT ROYAL VA 22630) should you feel as elated as I did and a little generous. Well here it is. This may not be the fix for some of you, but maybe just in another area of your car. I started to rock my car when this happened for about the hundredth time. Don't know what made me do it? But it started. So I took it to the Ford dealer and told them, so they scoured the undercarriage. Here is what it was. a f****** ground wire (twisted cable) running from my battery to the transmission, had rusted out and caused to short the PSA Factory security system. I hope this helps a lot of people keep their sanity and money. I had at least three starters, two alternators a key cylinder replaced because they played me at the dealer. Now. Go get your car fixed.

Well I think my mariner had every single issue over the years!

My airbag also makes a jingle sound.

What about the engine light on????

Mariner’s are really good cars if you maintain them

My 2008 has a steering issue,the steering becomes very hard.when I clear the codes it's fine,,,for a while

The steering wheel shakes even idle AND power steering goes out intermittently. After shutting off then starting back up the power steering works.

So I got stuck in my drive way in alot of snow and was crawling out and something just let go. When I put it in park there is a huge grinding noise even shakes the shifter. And no it does not drive anywhere. Can anyone give me a idea of maybe what it could be? I can't get under it right now. I did verify the drive shafts are okay and I can actually roll the vehicle by the driveshaft in while it's in park... help..

08 Mariner instrument complete warning light cluster lights up the tach and speedometer both die. Random. Try to start anti theft and some other lights come on, won't start random. Sometimes no response at all sometimes starts right up and works for awhile which also keeps the cluster from lighting up. Temperature change and humidity also affect it.

I've got a 2008 Mercury mariner both front doors won't latch after they got opened front inside

2:30 same problem on 2nd gen Ford Escape.

My steering is hard to turn could it be my steering belt.

Hey, I saw a 2011 mercury mariner with 170k miles in 3k dollars, do you think Can be a good buy? Or better continue using small cars and go for a Volkswagen Jetta with 130k-150k miles. That’s are my 2 options right now.

I have an 2008 Mariner Premier. Recently i hit a bump in the road hard and the entire truck shut off on 2 occasions. the first one was hard and the second one wasn't that hard. What could have caused that.

On my Mazda Tribute 2008 3.0 V6....× It already happen the aligment thing......The crankshaft seal where leak oil.....I still have oil leak i need to find where it leaks oil........Transmission seal look good.....Even rear diff and transfer case looks good. replace coolant and and still no leaks.....A little bad at MPG....But i think is normal for 4WD... .....Still need to replace fuel pump, water pump, belts

Love my Mariner, but I'm on my third power steering assist motor. I only have 130,000 miles.

I have a battery drain issue on a 2010 Mercury Mariner

2008 mariner special edition rear wheel wells rust out on ALL OF THEM and the strut breaks loose........

C'mon fellas let's get it together!!! Honda civic 8th gen is where it's at!

Geeze. I was looking into purchasing one for a runabout but I'd have to replace the whole steering system. No thanks.

You might want to check spelling at 4:54.

My Ford dealer says steering columns are , not only on backorder, but they are $1,800.00 . If mechanic says steering column, don't do it. Sell the car.

Really? Not one mention of the crap hybrid transmission?

They can be money draining machines.

Vehicle = Vercle. Must be in the north...

Sounds like a good idea would be staying away from these vehicles.

Mine hit a tree and stopped running. Pos

Problem #1 You bought one.
