Grand Marquis 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
The gears tended to pop, making the vehicle jump forward, as well the engine leaking oil, and increasing the chance of the vehicle to overheat. Taken to dealer for repairs 4 times, but the problem recurred. Consumer was informed that a new engine was needed, but it will be at consumer's expense.
