FRONT ROTORS PROBLEM

2002 Mercury Cougar 2dr Hatchback (2.5L 6cyl 5M)

I drove the Cougar over 90K miles. Automatic transmission, still averaging 23.5 Miles per gallong. I usually cruise at 85-90 Miles per Hour. The car is still driving strong but it was not built as well as I thought and it started to fall apart. Minor things for the most but the biggest problem has been the FRONT ROTORS that KEEP ON WORPING. I do drive quite aggressively and brake accordingly but I had to bring the car back for rotors replacements twice and had them substituted twice till I decided to shallow out a few hundreds for high performance parts. The sunroot too is easily damageable, twice I had to have it fixed.
Great car

I just bought it 4 months ago with 60,000 miles. I have not had any problems with this vehicle. I just hit 81,000 miles. I will be parting with it shortly because my wife is pregnant and we need a 4dr car. It is a great car.

I now have over 3,000 miles on my 2002 cougar V6 and have had no problems. Took it into the mountains and averaged 25 mpg, and I was passing alot of cars in the slow lane that could not keep up to the speed limit going up the mountain. I love my Cougar!!
GrrrrrrWOWllll!!!!

I had been drooling over a Prelude SH until I drove one and kept asking myself if I wanted to spend all that money on something so plain and basic as the SH is.... Once I spotted a Cougar, I researched it and fell head over heels for it. The third day we owned it, a teenage girl ran a stop sign and had this car not been able to react during a swerve and skid she would have totaled this car... I never felt like the car was out of control... Wonderful car!!! C2 model's a definite plus...

I purchsed this vehicle because I thought it was going to be well manufactued and be a great addition to the Cougar family. It turns out that I was wrong. This car was very sportey from the out side but when you get inside there are many problems and things that Ford Motor Company could have improved on. One, the engine is not that great even though the Duratec engine can have great potental to reach high standards. The seat belt is to small even for a slim woman, the molding on the passenger side door is loose, and the sound system is very crapy.
