Rochester, New York, United States

 This is a nice running and working Suv.

I purchased it to help my friend when the motor gave him problems.

He had replaced the transmission with a remanufactured on in may of 2013 at 142K ( with receipt)

When I had the car taken to the shop, i opted to just replace the motor with a somewhat lower mileage motor since we did not know the extent of the problems within the original.

The new motor had 125K and the suv had 145,996

after new motor was installed we discovered the issue was a hole in the radiator that caused original to overheat, and thus.. whaola.. new motor.

so I installed a new radiator, serp. belt, battery, then 2 weeks later the right rear half shaft and hub.

I have driven it over 1000 miles, and then summer came and I got my summer car out, so this one is in the barn.

Ther is nothing wrong with it, everything works, air, power options, everything.

With this said, there are some flaws, its 10 yrs old with 147K.

the exterior has some scratches, the right frint corner has a wrinkle in the bumper,  the rear gate has a small spot of rust starting, as is also on the RR wheel well when you open the rear door.
The interior is light tan, and shows wear. the steering wheel has some tan worn down to the darker brown leather on the left side. the seat show wear.  the pockets on the front dors have been removed ( IDK why) and the handles for reclining the front seats need to be replaced as they are missing. the left front seat is missing the plastic trim around the base of the seat

None of thse are major issues, I am simply trying to be as detailed as I can, because I know how hard it is to buy a car sight unseen.

Mech the only thing I know is there is a tiny oil drip near the oil filter. In the 1000 miles I have used it it say It might have lost a 1/4 cup? its not dropped on the dipstick at all.. its a Tiny tiny spot I noticed.

It did pass NYSI in april or may, and I have not had any service light come on.. its really running nice.

I will drive it again this winter if I dont sell, but its not the best on gas, so Id be ok with getting something smaller. I have achieved up to 19mpg Hwy and it averages, 13.5-15 normally. average for a awd suv with a v8.

i have receipts for all work listed, I lost the labor receipt for the motor install, but I do have the motor  receipt, and have no problem taking you to the shop that did the work. they are very reputable.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags

Thu, Jan 12 2017

The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
