1995 Mercury Villager LS minivan - a seven (7) passenger wagon. Same as a Nissan Quest (see the blurb below) with a bullet-proof, non-interference Maxima 3.0L V-6 engine and four-speed automatic transmission. (see photos). Van runs and drives better than it looks from the front.
The Villager LS unit came standard with Power Steering, Tilt Wheel with built-in Cruise Controls, Digital Instrument Cluster, Alloy Wheels, ABS 4-Wheel Brakes, Privacy Glass, Drivers Air-Bag, Power Side-view Mirrors, Driver and Passenger Power Seats and upgraded interior with plush upholstery fabric which is non-smoker and in very good condition. There are no tears or excessive wear. Also included are the factory original documents, owner's manual and "Villager" embossed zippered pouch (see photos). Nice stereo system. Rear passenger has audio system controls, dual headphone jacks, Heat/AC controls and adjustable registers. Rear lift-gate has a reach-in feature; the rear window glass also lifts up to provide access to the rear cargo area. No rust, leaks or dripping fluid. This Villager has the optional center seating which consists of removable Captain's chairs with fold-up arm rests. The rear bench seat folds up and can be re-positioned on the recessed tracks (built into the carpeted floor), 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. The rear bench seat also folds down to provide a table feature which can be used in the rear or midship area for dining, game playing and as a writing surface with no-slid beverage recesses. Roof rack is complete, fully adjustable and functional. Here are a few notes on the Mercury Villager minivans: Villagers are the product of a joint venture between Ford and Nissan and were built at Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Manufactured and sold by Ford for model years 1993-2002, it is a re-badged and slightly re-designed variant of the Nissan Quest. It was Mercury's first of only two minivan models ever featured (second was Monterey). These vehicles have almost nothing in common with Ford's Aerostar, Windstar or Freestar minivans. Villagers were available in three trim levels: GS, LS (luxury/sport), and the Nautica Special Edition. Villagers come with the Nissan 3.0 liter, V-6, 151 horsepower engine. This modified VG30E engine is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and is the same drive train that the highly renown and reliable Nissan Maxima came with for many years. It is a free-wheeling, non-interference engine. This means that in the event of a complete engine failure while driving, the driver will still have braking and steering power. Furthermore, because it is a non-interference engine, repairs are NOT likely to reach the excessive and extreme costs involved in replacing bent, cracked or damaged valves, pistons, guides, heads, etc. -- the usual result of an otherwise simple failure/repair issue such as a broken serpentine belt, seized alternator or leaky cooling system -- that occur with an "interference motor". 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. |

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford recalls over 953,000 vehicles to replace Takata airbag inflators
Fri, Jan 4 2019DETROIT — Ford is recalling more than 953,000 vehicles worldwide to replace Takata passenger airbag inflators that can explode and hurl shrapnel. The move includes over 782,000 vehicles in the U.S. and is part of the largest series of recalls in U.S. history. Included are the 2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX, the 2010 and 2011 Ford Ranger, the 2010 to 2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan, and the 2010 to 2014 Ford Mustang. Some of the recalls may be limited to specific geographic areas of the U.S. Takata used the chemical ammonium nitrate to create an explosion to inflate airbags. But it can deteriorate over time due to heat and humidity and explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister designed to contain the explosion. At least 23 people have been killed worldwide and hundreds injured by the inflators. Ford says it doesn't know of any injuries in vehicles included in this recall. Dealers will replace the inflators. Ford will notify owners about the recall starting on Feb. 18, and the company has replacement parts available for dealers to order, said spokeswoman Monique Brentley. In previous Takata recalls, parts availability had been an issue. Owners can go to this Ford website and key in their vehicle identification number to see if their cars and SUVs are being recalled. The same information will be available soon at the NHTSA recall website. More than three years after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration took over management of recalls involving Takata inflators, one third of the recalled inflators still have not been replaced, according to an annual report from the government and a court-appointed monitor. The report says 16.7 million faulty inflators out of 50 million under recall have yet to be replaced. And 10 million more inflators are scheduled to be recalled this month, including the Ford vehicles. Safety advocates said the completion rate should be far higher given the danger associated with the inflators. The recalls forced Takata of Japan to seek bankruptcy protection and sell most of its assets to pay for the fixes. The inflators grow more dangerous as they get older because ammonium nitrate deteriorates due to high humidity and cycles from hot temperatures to cold. The most dangerous inflators are in areas of the South along the Gulf of Mexico that have high humidity. Related Video:
