I have a 2002 Cougar with 60K miles and I've already replaced the fuel pump, power steering pump, and now the heater core is clogged. Although Lincoln/Mercury is the only one to work on the car, the warranty wont cover a clog. They will cover a leak...but not a clogg. How asinine is that? fidelity warranty service is a joke!
