Versatility: -Cleans up nice- a respectable looking vehicle with good bones and great lines, feels current- As far as the upgrade possibilities- the customizations I've seen online are sharp and slick! This car can accept a Duratec DOHC V6 or V8 SHO Engine- now seen on ebay for Cheap! Some guy fitted his Sable with a 32 Valve V8 SHO Taurus Engine It can be a good project sled to upgrade and customize- I've sourced and priced parts for this car from various parts vendors, and, for example, a used or rebuilt V4, V6 or V8 engine can be had for not as much as you'd think (if that's ever needed) But it's also a good Family car that Seats Five, is Safe, and has Practical Features- It has Austere Good Looks, Subtly Sophisticated in Black and has Room for your Life
History: -This Beautiful Sable has been garaged at night it's entire life, save for vacations and whatnot The Interior of the car is Excellent. This was my Mom's car and she babied it I've only had it since 2010, and the owner before her only put 16,000 on it Regular maintenance has always been done, and we've kept all of the service records I keep oiling and washing it and giving it love, but it's really not in use It's only been sitting in my garage for several months. My Mechanic has told me the seals need to be replaced to get compression back. Repairs as follows can be made at intervals, to get the car up and running immediately. The main issue is to replace the seals and keep the Engine from sputtering.
The Bad (your bargaining chips): Known Issues: 1. -Two bits of Rust (One at the Trunk, near the chrome trim, and one at the crest of the wheel well on the driver's side rear wheel) 2. -Needs a General Electronic Module (GEM - part around $100-250, Labor ? -and, according to the instructions, pretty easy) The GEM controls the Stereo AM/FM Radio/CD Player, Clock, Speedometer and Odometer, which are currently not working because of it- I have stopped driving it for this reason (regarding odometer reading- the GEM will reveal true Mileage) - but the instruments technically work- it's simply the GEM that needs to be replaced* 3. -Cruise Control not engaging* 4. -One Rear Window not opening* Rear Window Motor or some other issue may exist (unknown) The rest of the windows work fine *(*asterik indicates these may be GEM issues, and might be restored after GEM is functioning –{unknown}) 5. -Down the road, the front Brakes may need updating, and the drums are ugly, but functioning 6. -The compression is bad, needs Seals replaced, but it seems the engine is otherwise o.k., low miles
7. -Keep in mind this car isn't running right now, I've detached the battery! -------> Arrange for Towing to your home or garage, OR maybe I can give you a free one way tow with my Auto Club to within 50 miles of the 91205 Zip Code. - The insurance is still current and will be until the completion of sale. This is NOT a DMV Non-Operational, and has not been registered as such, as of
yet. The tags are good until April 2014. This is a functional vehicle that needs someone to invest a little green for a lot of car in return.
Let's Deal!
This has been an exceptional car We love the Sable, and All Ford Family Cars (we have another Ford), It’s just that we can get by without a second car It's a luxurious vehicle with a smooth, quiet ride and decent gas mileage, especially on the highway It's a solid piece of American Steel and is safe and practical It cleans up nice and has a nice get up and go on the freeway It's in the garage and will remain there until the right buyer comes along We're not desperate to sell, but we are open to offers, but no low-ballers, please Make a reasonable offer and we'll let it go for the right buyer

Junkyard Gem: 1989 Mercury Tracer Four-Door Hatchback
Sat, Mar 6 2021During the life of the Mercury brand, which began in 1939 and ended in 2011, nearly every Mercury sold in North America was a cosmetically enhanced version of some Ford model also sold here. The exceptions to this rule came when Mercury sold Fords originally designed for non-North American markets, and for which no Ford-branded version existed on our shores. The 1991-1994 Capri was such a car, as was the 1999-2002 Cougar (the Mondeo-based Cougar was unique among all Mercuries in that no other cars in the sprawling Ford Empire shared its body). The 1970-1978 Capri was sold through Mercury dealers here, but never had Mercury badging. One of the rarest of all these Mercury cars was the first-generation Tracer, a Mazda design that made its way here via Australia. The bloodline of the Tracer goes back to the Mazda 323, the ancestor of today's Mazda3 and the platform used for all those US-market Ford Escorts of the 1990s. Starting in 1991, the Tracer name went onto badge-engineered Escorts, according to Mercury tradition, but the 1988-1989 Tracers were based on the Australian-market Ford KE Laser. Underneath all of those cars (as well as the early-1990s Capris) lived Mazda 323 running gear, of course. This one nearly made it to the 175,000-mile mark during its time on the road, which is respectable by the standards of 1980s Mazdas. With an automatic transmission transferring the 84 horses from its Mazda B6 engine to the front wheels, this car wouldn't have offered a great deal of driving excitement. 1989 Tracer buyers could choose between a two-door hatchback, a four-door hatchback, and a four-door wagon. Not many Americans hurried over to their local Mercury dealers to buy Tracers, despite the fact that the nearest Ford-badged identical twins were on the other side of the globe. Mercury still seemed relevant in the late 1980s, but its days were numbered. The actress driving the Tracer in this TV commercial seems to have the same deer-in-headlights facial expression of the hapless driver-training students in the 1968 AMC Rebel commercial.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

NHTSA advances investigation of Ford Crown Victoria headlights
Sat, Aug 15 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into reports of suddenly failing headlights on 517,945 examples of the 2003-2005 Ford Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis. The government started looking into this problem in April when the North Carolina Consumers Council filed a defect petition with the agency. Now, the inquiry has moved to the next step. According to NHTSA's documentation (as a PDF), it examined its own database and worked with Ford to come up with a total of 3,609 complaints of the front lighting control module suddenly failing. When this happens, drivers lose the low-beam headlights, but the high-beams can be used by holding the stalk. Sometimes turning the switch off and on fixes the issue. Additionally, there are 15 allegations of crashes, and one reported shoulder injury. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations "evaluate the scope, frequency, and consequence of the alleged defect" and don't necessarily lead to a recall. NHTSA looked into this problem once before in 2008 and 2009 and decided that a recall wasn't necessary. Ford also extended the warranty on the front lighting control module for these vehicles. INVESTIGATION Subject : Loss of headlights Date Investigation Opened: AUG 10, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15028 Component(s): EXTERIOR LIGHTING All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) FORD CROWN VICTORIA 2003-2005 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003-2005 Details Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company SUMMARY: After receiving a defect petition (DP15002) concerning the loss of headlights and other exterior lighting in model year (MY) 2003-2005 Ford Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis vehicles, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) analyzed Vehicle Owner Questionnaire (VOQ) complaints received from consumers and identified a total of 605 reports (for all submission dates) alleging headlight failure. The complaints indicate failures of both low beam headlights typically while driving, a defect condition that was evaluated under a prior ODI investigation (PE08066). Most consumer VOQs indicate that the headlights failed suddenly and without warning leaving the driver with no forward lighting, however some report the headlights flickered or dimmed prior to turning off. In some cases drivers were able to turn the headlights back on after a period of time while others reported the headlights would not come back on at all.
