Must See!!!!
It's a 4 door.  It has electric locks.  Good heater and air conditioner. The seats are in good condition.  The paint's in good condition.  The roomy interior is in fair shape.  V8 engine. 3 tires and the spare in good condition. Large trunk.  In good condition considering it's age.  It only has 155661 miles on it
. 
The windshield has a crack across it.  The interior of the driver's door needs to be re clipped and the interior handle of the door has been replaced by a cord.  Headlights are slightly fogged but very functional.  The fender is slightly crumpled where it meets  the driver's door - due to when my ball joint went out this last summer.  Ball joint was replaced.  The engine recently started running hot and losing power on hills. It probably won't pass an emissions test.  I know a cheap and honest mechanic that could fix all this but since the car doesn't meet my needs, I've chosen to sell it and save up for a car that does.  I'll be happy to refer anyone to this mechanic.  I can also refer anyone to a place that sells good used tires.

I've owned it since 2007.  It had less then 100,000 miles on it when I bought it.  I bought it from Butterfields Used Cars in Sandy, UT.  It's comfortable sturdy car but it really doesn't meet my needs and since I have a job I can walk to, I'm going to do without a car for a couple of months.  It's not in pristine shape but it's in fairly good shape for as old as it is.
This could be a good first car for a teenager.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday

Mon, 04 Oct 2010

Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
