| 2008 mercury mariner with 40,000 miles on it has transmission leak caused by a faulty cooling condenser. i have heard of hundreds if not thousands of complaints such as this one in the mariner and the sister car ford escape. this repair is around 800 dollars and apparently there is no sign of a recall. i believe the part was modified in the 2009 models but this does little for me and those like me. new part can easily be defective down the road as well. not repaired yet but if driven continually can me dangerous to car not to mention persons in vehicle. *tr | |||
