Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 1967 Cougar.
The 1967 Mercury Cougar Overview defines the vehicle's baseline identity, framing a model whose documented complaint history from 1990 to 2002 reveals dramatic reliability extremes. Standout figures within this recorded timeframe include a peak of 521 complaints in 1999 alongside a stark low of just one complaint in 1998. Because the 1967 model year predates this specific complaint data, it sits outside the window of these documented reliability issues, meaning its historical placement precedes the severe quality fluctuations experienced by later iterations of the nameplate.
