2010 Mercury Mariner Exterior lighting Problems

“Power steering suddenly stopped working while I was driving. The vehicle is extremely difficult to navigate but I was able to pull off the road to a safe area. After shutting the car off for 15 minutes and restarting the lack of power steering remained, but there was now a message saying power steering assist fault . This car has several other electrical problems with regard to the A/C & blower, and also the drivers side window and dome lights work sporadically.”

“Returning home from work, wife in front of me. Center high stop light had some bad bulbs. Removed assembly, found melted reflector and broken bulbs. Took many photos. Informed local dealership by email. Told them u/w. Part arrived 1 week later, picked up on saturday morning, had to pay $90.41. I badgered dealership for reimbursement, finally got check at end of december. Still have pics and part.”

“I purchased my 2010 Mariner 03/26/2013 from a local dealership. While driving at around 35 - 40 MPH I noticed a grinding sound and difficulty to increase speed. I then noticed that my left blinker was flashing at a faster speed and the tail light went out. That was replaced. The car then would sporadically go dead and would have to be jumped. I had 3 different service shops look at the vehicle and found no issues. I did replace the battery and it appeared to run fine for about 3 - 4 days. It is now sporadically dead and the local dealership will look into the issue on 8/7/2013. …”
