We have about 1200 miles on this car. About 23 mpg. The 6 speed auto took a little getting used to. 240 hp definitely makes this Merc fly.
Much better than the Honda CRV

I purchased a 2009 Honda CRV earlier this year. It had to be the most uncomfortable car I purchased and it was very disappointing. Honda missed the mark on that car. After 8 months and 12,500 miles, I had enough of it and I started looking for a car to replace it. The Mariner was the 3rd car I drove and I was sold. The dealer let me take the car for the morning and I racked up 90+ miles on the test drive. Excellent car, very comfortable, etc. The comfort is what sold me. The bluetooth and ipod ports are nice, I now need a new phone and speech recognizable player to match the features of the car. If you are looking at a CRV, you need to look at this car.

2009 Mercury Mariner 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

Within the first 6000 miles the transmission began to "clunk". I took it to the Dealership and was told it was a "characteristic" of the transmission. It is loud and it sometimes takes a second to "engage" and then the "clunk". I am not happy about this. The material on the drivers seat is loose and "puckered up" where I sit. I weigh 120 lbs and I am the only driver. Looks terrible! Sync is a great feature for phones but it is not compatible with my cell phone! Forget trying to figure out the Media! Even the dealersip didn't have a clue. I buy a new car every 2 years and this is the first American Car I have purchased new, wont do that again.
Disappointed

I test drove a 6 cylinder and bought a 4, took it on a trip and every stop the suv has a vibration , returned it to the dealer to get repaired, they named the issue and could not repair thid brand new vehicle …. Alot of sensor issues , tires, dash, throttle, currently the frame in sunroof rusted and it clogged the drain, took it to a Ford dealer explaining the leak when it was first noticed years ago , service guy said it very hard to find leaks, , he never looked at the sunroof? never buying a Fort product again
