“I was driving in town at around 30mph. My ABS warning light came on. The car started making a strange noise. Then when breaking the back breaks seemed to be trying to lock up. Then the passenger airbag warning light came on. After this happened all my gauges including my speedometer, blinkers, headlights, RPM, etc. Became inoperable. I am not able to drive the car at all due to this issue.”

“Extended braking distance this is now the second time this has happened to my car, the first time was last winter. It was a little slippery on the roads so I was not at all going fast, coming to a stop sign in my neighborhood braking, the antilock brakes kicked in, made a little noise, I stopped and then went on my way. The next time I came to stop after that I could barely stop and had to press my foot to the floor to do so. It was like it wanted to stop at the normal time but then released a little to have my foot go all the way down to then stop. …”

“I won a 2007 Mercury Milan with a 3.0l dohc motor. I was turning onto the road I live on, started to accelerate, and it started spitting and sputtering. It felt like it was running on only a few cylinders. We had the computer scanned, and replaced the two coils that it claimed were the issue. Drove it down the road, and it still did the same thing. We then took it to a local automotive electrician, who told us that one of the coils we didn't replace (which never showed up as bad) melted so badly, and shorted out the PCM. …”

“The vehicle jerked while on a state highway repeatedly until I was able to pull over and then it failed. Found out that the ignition coils had completely burned up, which I was told by the dealer is very unusual. Once the ignition coils were replaced, they determined the PCM(computer) had to be replaced. Keep in mind that my vehicle had been in the repair shop 4 times before regarding my radio after they replaced the radio 4 times, they realized that it was also the PCM that caused this problem. Every problem that I have had has been electrical. …”

“Air bag is coming apart it looks like it's about to deploy. Brakes keep freezing up. When it's cold outside and when it's hot outside. Changed cold and spark plugs both times spark plugs and coils were burnt at the end and some type of gook was on the ends that both shops said they never saw before.”
