    Mercury Mountaineer

    EPA MPG: NA

    RECALL ALERT:
    There is 1 recall on this vehicle. Learn More.

    First Take
    The Mountaineer is a clone of the Ford Explorer. The standard 4.0-liter V6 performs adequately but sounds coarse. The V8 is stronger and sounds better. The ride is stiff compared with its car-based competition. Handling is sound and secure but doesn't stand out in its class. The versatile interior has various folding seat arrangements and offers three-row seating. Unlike the Explorer, the Mountaineer uses a permanent all-wheel-drive system without a low range. The 2006 freshening brought a new interior, but the door pull and latch are awkward to use. Curtain air bags are standard for 2007.
