Why does my 1995 Mercury Cougar XR7 not shift out of Park?
My 1995 Mercury Cougar XR7 has been sitting on a hill for the past couple of months, unable to shift out of park. It starts, but will not move. I have also lost power to my power seats, trunk release, fuel door release, 4-way flashers, radio, clock, brake lights, and various other things.
How did the Mercury Cougar get covered headlights?
This was the only generation with covered headlights. In 1967 and 1968, they were deployed using a vacuum canister system that opened and closed the headlamp doors. For 1969 and 1970, a redesigned vacuum system kept the doors down when a vacuum condition existed in the lines, provided by the engine when it was running.

Comfort and performance options available for the Cougar included the “Tilt-Away” steering wheel that swung up and out of the way when the driver’s door was opened, the transmission in “park”, and the ignition was off, and from 1971, a power driver’s seat. The new option appeared in 1968: Ford’s first factory-installed electric sunroof.
