Asked by TuxedoCat12 Feb 20, 2016 at 10:07 AM about the 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Convenience AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Has been jumping out of gear for almost 2 years. This is an automatic. Sometimes when I put it into reverse, I have to give it gas to go into reverse. Otherwise, this piece of junk will just sit there in reverse and not go anywhere.
