1995 Mercury Villager LS minivan - a seven (7) passenger wagon. Same as a Nissan Quest (see the blurb below) with a bulletproof, non-interference Maxima 3.0L V-6 engine and four-speed automatic transmission. (see photos). Although the van is running fine and drivable, it was hit and needs left-front fender, side light and mechanical attention to the left-front suspension because a part appears to be bent enough that the tire rubs lightly when turned.
Absolutely NO RUST, NO CORROSION, NO LEAKS or DRIPPING FLUIDS. The Villager LS unit came standard with Power Steering, Tilt Wheel with built-in Cruise Controls, Digital Instrument Cluster, Alloy Wheels, ABS 4-Wheel, Keyless Entry, Privacy Glass, upgraded and luxury interior and upholstery (which is in very good condition) with special appointments and trim, inside and out. There are no tears or excessive wear. Can't find the sun visors; they broke off years ago. No leaks or dripping fluid. Nice stereo system. Side-mounted rear A/C and heater controls. Exhaust system has not been modified and is very quiet. Center seating is the optional, removable Captain's Chairs which can also be used in the rear (see table feature below). Rear bench seat folds up and can be positioned anywhere along the tracks, even up against the back of the front Captain's Chairs. This provides a huge cargo area which is accessible from the rear hatch or side entrance and ample space for a camping mattress in a five (5) passenger vehicle. Also, the rear bench seat folds down to provide a table feature with drink holders which can be slid to the rear or the mid section. When slid forward, you can then install the removable Captain's Chairs to the rear of the seat tracks, allowing all passengers to use for dining and game playing. Roof rack is complete, adjustable and fully functional. This wagon was well taken care of before it was hit. Total, verifiable mileage is only 171,161. Clear/clean title ready to go. Thank you for looking at this 1995 Mercury Villager LS minivan/wagon with left-front damage. Here's a few notes on the Mercury Villager minivans: Manufactured and sold by Ford for model years 1993-2002, it is a re-badged and slightly re-designed variant of the Nissan Quest. The Villager was the product of a joint venture between Ford and Nissan and was built at Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. It was Mercury's first of only two minivan models ever featured (second was Monterey). These have almost nothing in common with Ford's Aerostar, Windstar or Freestar minivans. The first Villagers were available in three trim levels: GS, LS (luxury/sport), and the Nautica Special Edition. All Villagers were designed with a Nissan 3.0 liter, V-6, 151 horsepower engine which is a free-wheeling, non-interference engine. This provides 2 important advantages; in the event of a complete engine failure in the course of driving, first, the driver will still have braking and steering power, and second, will not likely to be saddled with the excessive costs involved in replacing bent, cracked or damaged valves, guides, heads, etc. (i.e., engine rebuild) that accompany an otherwise simple repair issue such as a broken serpentine belt, seized alternator or leaky cooling system, as would be the case on an "interference motor". This modified VG30E engine with a 4-speed automatic transmission is the same as used in the highly renown and reliable Nissan Maxima. The Villager sold with either a folding, removable bench-type middle seat, or optionally, two Captain's chairs (bucket seats) which can be mounted in the rear position. The rear seat folds up or down and moved on tracks in the floor, When folded down, it provides a flat, recessed tabletop (with two cup holders) useful when dining, play cards or board games. It could be slid forward to the middle position making a 5 passenger vehicle with ample cargo space, or further forward, all the way to the back of the front seats to make a large cargo space. Mercury Villager chassis was sophisticated compared to other minivans from the '90s; its modern all-coil suspension gave it a more car-like ride and better handling than its competitors. |

Junkyard Gem: 1995 Mercury Tracer Trio
Sat, Feb 5 2022With the rise of Radwood, cars with exaggerated characteristics associated with the 1980s and 1990s are cool again. That means some combination of pastel and/or neon colors, squiggly squeezed-from-toothpaste-tube graphics, nonfunctional decklid spoilers, giant TURBO badging, and kicky youth-centric nomenclature are required if you want your wheels to be considered in compliance with the sacred tenets of Radism. I do my best to find rad machinery while crawling around in car graveyards, and since I came of driving age in 1982 I know a bit about the subject. Today's rare Junkyard Gem shows us the Mercury Division's belated attempt to sell fun cars to rad-leaning youngsters: a Tracer Trio, found in a Denver yard a few weeks back. The Trio package added 310 bucks to the cost of the $11,280 base Tracer sedan (that's about $575 on a $20,925 car in 2022 dollars), and it got the hip-and-trendy young buyer a leather-wrapped steering wheel, seven-spoke wheels, a decklid spoiler and these rad fender badges. I'm going to say that the much louder graphics and candy-cane-colored displacement badges on the Pontiac Sunbird W25 out-radded the Tracer Trio by a mile, but then Pontiac generally out-radded everyone in those days. Even Plymouth got into the act with such radness as the Breeze Expresso and Sundance Duster (we'll overlook the anti-rad Horizon Miser here). Perhaps tellingly, Mercury, Pontiac and Plymouth all got the "Old Yeller" treatment not long after the Rad Era ended. The Tracer name always went on Mercuries built on Mazda platforms, starting with the Australia-built, Ford Laser-based 1987-1989 cars and then continuing with Mexico-assembled, Ford Escort-based 1991-1996 cars. That generation of Escort/Tracer was mechanical twins with the Mazda Protege, itself the bridge between the 323 and the Mazda3. Some Tracers got the a 1.8-liter Mazda engine that was related to the Miata's engine, but this one has the pure-Detroit CVH 1.9. You're looking at 88 horsepower right here; the Mazda 1.8 offered 127 horses. At least the original buyer of this car got the base five-speed manual transmission instead of forking over $815 extra (about $1,510 today) for the four-speed slushbox. As a 29-year-old slacker living in San Francisco's Mission District and driving a hooptie '65 Chevy Impala sedan at the time, I would have taken the manual transmission without the Trio package, had I been forced to buy a new Tracer.
Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers
Mon, 04 Aug 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
