the windshield wiper does not work properly when it rains and its put to use and the belt retracker don the drivers side doesn't work well and need car checked on all other recall items listed

Do you drive a 2000 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
