What's Broke on your Marauder?

[Bradley G]

Drivers door lock inop
trans temps high(needs cooler installed)
Compass no display
power pedals inop
Rear tires (not my fault):rasta:
Oh Yeah, I must have a very specially fast Marauder, I seem to be blowing the paint right off the car. :censor: DoH

[wx4caster]

Not broke but..........
Brake pedal "crunchy" feel and sound (seen other posts with same issue) and creeking noise from front suspension when turning. Hoping to get both issues rectified next week.

[not5-0]

compass
adjustable pedal
DS window switch works but is finicky...

[PurdueRifleman]

Just the compass for me. I might get around to fixing it.

[yjmud]

rear axle shaft is grinding

[Spectragod]

[MOTOWN]

Now that i think about it i need to replace that ac tank that sits on the frame rail, seems to have rusted thru, and leaking

[boatmangc]

#1 problem no time to play with it

steering wheel stereo control adapter whacked out

something making a clinking (is that a word?) sound in left front when I hit bumps.

[Blk Mamba]

Adjustable pedals,
Compass (again),
Paint, &
Drivers door switch bezel.

[MyTMerc]

Seat warmers - have to use the manual method

Self waxing feature - inop

Spouse throttle limiter - stolen (at least that's what she said)

Fuel regeneration system - needs new flux capaciter

Air Conditioner - Auto regulating feature inop - all on or off (at least it works strong in this heat). Manually regulated by cracking a window.

Irratating sweaking noise coming from the front suspension (better from there than the passenger seat)

What's broke? The driver!

[Ozark Marauder]

The compass.........and the led on the drivers window switch, all others work fine

[SC Cheesehead]

power pedal adjustment, that's about it.

The paint is "operable," but I've got a couple spots that are showing a orange peel defect, so a new paint job's gonna be in order within a few years.

[DOOM]

My gas pedal always seems to be sticking to the floor! :D :burnout:

Self waxing feature - inop

Anyone know a fix for this??? Mine doesn't work either...

I had same problem when I bought my MM, found the cabin temp sensor unplugged... It's just to the right of the HVAC controls, inside the little vent openings...

Adj pedals are inop(don't really care)
LED is out in the drivers up window sw
Minor damage to console
Rear bumper could use touch up on paint rub

These issues all were included at no extra cost when I bought it...

[RoyLPita]

Power adjustble pedals and crappy paint.

[guspech750]

Its sitting in my garage as I am here on the computer :)

[Bigdogjim]

Loose nut behind the wheel?

I am told there is no fix for it?

Drivers door switch bezzel and interior door handle sticks.... both my fault

[slickster]

Pedals work sometimes?. Front bumper needs to be resurface and paint. Chips on hood. Both front led don't work on driver side and going to order both front window motors from Ebay for $60 right now

A uninstall(leave at home)works, at least till one goes back home....

[Timw286]

Light for oil pressure gauge and AC blows through defrost only

[Jeremy]

Hmm...

Crappy roof paint..

My A/C decided to quit working about the time I had a trouble call 100 miles away and was enroute on Friday evening.. Then decided to start working again.. then quit.. then worked fine..

Fans run, compressor doesn't cycle very long.. nothing obvious.. other than the compressor acts like it's a bit low on 134a..

Stopped by the dealer (they take care of me) Saturday morning.. it was a bit overcharged (they changed the evap core last summer & hasn't been touched).. recovered.. pulled vacuum.. recharged..

And well.. it seems to like being overcharged.. close to 3lbs (I think the sticker under the hood says 38oz).. and it's so cold it hurts my hand when I rest it on the steering wheel in front of the vent.. but I'm not complaining.. it's 110F (heat index) most days and I'm not real fond of anything above 65..

There's probably a few other things too.. but nothing major.. other than it seems like the throttle may like to stick & I may have a gas leak though.. I sure do stop by the gas station a lot.. haha ;)

[Motorhead350]

Engine.....

[SergntMac]

I'm broken...

But NEVER in SPIRIT!!!

[fesifisky]

Seals around both passenger doors seems to be gone now, went to the car this morning and the matt behind the passenger seat was nearly under water after last night's downpour.

[soultosoul13]

clunking noise from the rear end (probably bad shock)
passenger side window control

[RQS930655]

2003 GM LSE
1) driver's side remote control for the rear view mirror.

[BurpyTurtle]

The right front window is slow to go up and down.

The inside rearview mirror doesn't always dim at night.

And I need a new front bumper.

60,000 miles

:D

[slickster]

Has anyone ever had there window motors go bad. Cause both my front window stop working and I'm getting power

[Hacklemerc]

Half the lights in the guage cluster.
The compass
Foglights don't work anymore.
bad seal around trunk causing water leakage (fixed I hope)
rust on lower drivers side door interior.

[knine]

Nothing, I have access to the Zack. :2thumbs:

Had the regulators go in both of my Rauders, guess it's somewhat common on panthers.

[BirchMarauder]

the inside of the driver side door where you stick your finger to pull the door shut...that's peeling off from the bottom edge. thinking about just taking it apart and using some glue on it...poj

[hamcheese]

Not really...BROKEN...per say. ;)

[sergio442]

Adjustable pedals, cruchy brake pedal, clicking sound when applying brakes. ( New brakes fron and back OEM) still clicking. Roof top paint bad:mad:

[Duckman]

Adj. pedals, roof paint, lwr drivers door hinge, rear passenger shock, drivers window switch and regulator.

I was thinking the same thing? So items posted as broken/not working could be fix and fast.

So far so good. My inoperable adjustable pedals haven't fallen off yet. :D

[3pedal]

Power Adjustment Pedals
Rear over head light lenes keep falling out
Exterior issues caused by PO who drove by brail

[CobraSVT657]

Brand new Ford GT fuel pump is bad.. Had to pull it back out and figure out my options before it goes to get tuned.. :mad2:

[Timw286]

I had both window motors go in my 2000 Town Car, and I can feel the same problem beginning on my 2004 MM. It was a pain to fix because I replaced both the regulators and for some reason Ford riveted them in there so I had to drill them out. Not looking forward to doing it again. Anyone have an easier way?

[fesifisky]

Ford definitely likes the rivets in the doors. Not sure if it's possible with the regulators, but my buddy used stronger/bigger rivets on my door lock actuators when they broke loose in both my MMs. Not really an easier way, but they seem to last once that's done.

[FreddieH]

Center console insert, causes squeaking.

[Vortech347]

Paint kicks ass, its like my car has a kevlar shield for what I put it through. The Black 03 I had was horrible.

Wheels are looking "meh"

Inop items. The damn power pedals (other MM did this)
Crunchy brake pedal.

ALL is well other than those few items.

Edit: cold start squeal. Still haven't chased that ***** (Female dog) down yet. Now that its warm outside the car doesn't do it.

Giving the mirror a twist usually gets it to dim properly. The rest of the time it does it on its own. Might maybe be a loose connection or corrosion between the mirror and the cable.

And I hardly ever roll down the front passenger window.

[MMarauder03]

1. Hood squeak
2. Exhaust rattle on startup
3. Rear tires
4. I'm an idiot and broke the master switches
5. Nothing after today :)

Whenever I get gas, I open the trunk to pull the fuel door release cable. Some day I'll breakdown and order a replacement for the button on the driver's door.

[Man in Black]

1. Idle Blower Motor replace (would stall at idle, common problem easy fix) 40K
2. Stuck Driver's Side Window (My fault, operator error. Easy fix) 45K
3. Burned out AC Compressor (Life in FL in a Black car.) 75k
4. Radiator Fan has cracked and made a horrible rattling noise (workin on it) 78K
5. Radio Fades out on FM Stations Only (Workin on it) 78k

Also, the Engine Mounts have squeaked ever since I got the car at the slightest movement. It's odd, but it's not a problem. Lotsa fun times with this car, and it's still the most reliable car I've ever owned (I've known days of woe).
