“I have a 2010 Mercury milan. This has been an intermittent problem: sometimes the car feels like it does a hard gear shift--the wrench light comes on and the car loses power. I still have power steering and power brakes but pressing on the gas does nothing. If I turn off the engine and restart, it is fine--sometimes for a few minutes and sometimes for a few months.”
NHTSA complaint #10648307, filed 2014-10, 74,000 miles“My 2010 Mercury Milan Hybrid threw the wrench light twice last week. Both times, it lost nearly all power, and I had to come to a complete stop on the highway. My ford dealer determined it was the throttle body, forcing the vehicle into a software enforced limp mode. Upon doing some research I discovered that throttle bodies in milans, fusions, and other vehicles have been covered by customer satisfaction program 13n03 for 150,000 miles & 10 years. …”
NHTSA complaint #10631748, filed 2014-09, 54,700 miles“I was driving between 35-40 MPH when all of a sudden I lost power. Although I subsequently had the accelerator to the floor, the vehicle reduced its speed drastically and could not exceed about 10 MPH. I pulled over and the wrench indicator light came on. I was able to drive to a parking lot at very low speed and turned the vehicle off. When I turned it back on, it was responsive for about two blocks and the same symptoms reappeared. This time the wrench light and check engine light came on. Fortunately, I was a few blocks from a ford dealer. …”
NHTSA complaint #10731228, filed 2015-06, 90,925 miles“While driving the vehicle on the highway on 9/2, the wrench warning light came on and the car lost power and started shaking. We had to dodge traffic to limp off the road and stopped the engine. Upon starting again, the warning light was cleared and we hesitantly drove home. We called the local ford dealership and were told that if the light came on again, to not shut off the engine and to drive directly to the dealership. The next day (9/3) my wife was driving the car alone and the warning came on again, she lost speed and the vehicle started shaking badly. …”
NHTSA complaint #10632974, filed 2014-09, 33,150 miles“Yellow wrench light cured!!! Ford repaired vehicle for free, as Mercury Milan Hybrid is covered for 100,000 miles and 8 years under warranty. They replaced a pump for antifreeze for the hybrid transmission and that cured the problem of the yellow wrench and the throttle body failure code. All is well!”
