2002 MERCURY COUGAR Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2002 Mercury Cougar has two recalls, the more serious involving aftermarket brake master cylinders sold under several major parts brands that can leak brake fluid, reduce line pressure, and significantly extend stopping distances. The brake recall affects replacement cylinders sold under the NAPA, Raybestos, AIMCO, AC Delco, Carquest, Bendix, and Wagner brand names, so owners who have had brake work done may be affected depending on which parts were used. The second recall involves the fuel delivery module, where a contaminated filter can restrict and eventually cut off fuel flow to the engine, causing hesitation, surging, or a loss of power while driving.
