ISSUE:

A new automatic transmission fluid (MERCONŽ V) was introduced in 1997 for use in some Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.  The new MERCONŽ V fluid is not used in all applications and is not interchangeable with others transmissions fluids that are currently used.  Using the incorrect fluid may cause transmission or transaxle concerns.

ACTION:

For proper fluid application on current and past model vehicles equipped with Manual or Automatic Transmission or Transaxle refer to the Fluid Usage Chart (Figures 1, 2, and 3).
