I have a 2008 Ford Taurus that squeeks loudly going slowly over speed bumps or any bumps for taht matter. When I take it in for servicing I'll bring it to their attention but I'm sure they'll say it's normal even though it shouldn't be normal. Susan Read More...

Pjoannamo, Would you believe it? The Holman Dealer in NJ won't contact their Florida Dealer to find out info on what you mentioned because they are saying they don't think it's the same problem. Hello - same car model and same general problem description? So I was wondering if you wouldn't mind letting us know the name of the person in the service dept that served ... Read More...

EXCELLENT! Thanks for the info. And it's a small world - I had the struts replaced at Holman Lincoln Mercury Dealer in Maple Shade, NJ, which is part of the Holman Auto Group, which owns both car dealers! So I will be contacting my dealer today with the info and I'm sure that they will get in touch with your dealer to get the lowdown on the repair and I will follow-up with ... Read More...

I have a 2008 Sable that had the same problem when I test drove it. However, this problem you're referring to has nothing to do with the problem you're describing in earlier models. The pre-2000 Mercury/Lincoln vehicles had a clunking noise in the front end that whenever you mad a hard turn, you would hear the clunking sound. They re-designed the front end in the ...

2009 Mercury Sable Premier "Clunk" Noise

Written by: 09mercsable on Oct 30, 2009 11:19 AM

I have a 2009 Mercury Sable Premier FWD with 18" Pirelli' tires and app 4ooo miles and my car makes a "clunk" noise when going over bumps at slow speed. I have taken it back to a local Ford Dealer and they replaced both front struts and also the strut mounts and said that the sound is gone. Obviously they are deaf! So I found this forum and noticed that this seems to be a ... Read More...

Advice : 2 day old 2009 Sable has a whine/winding down sound upon stopping

Written by: dp135 on Jul 23, 2009 10:25 AM

I purchased a 2009 new Mercury Sable this week. We test drove one model but not the one we bought - big mistake, we should have not accepted that the car was blocked in vs the one we drove and that it's the same thing anyway- but nonetheless it's over and done with and I am where I am. Upon driving off the dealership we realized as we came to a stop the car had a winding down ... Read More...

I have a 2009 Sable Premier FWD with 4,500 miles. I consistently get a display reading of 28 to 30 MPG at 65 or 70 mph. At 45 to 50 mph, I get a display of 30 to 32 MPG. THis is with the AC on. I have no idea what is causing your porblem. Check to be sure you don't have the OverDrive off or that you are not using the L on the gear selector. Are the tires properly inflated. Is the parking ... Read More...

Re: Differences b/t Taurus and Sable [marsha7]

Written by: capella on Jul 03, 2008 11:00 PM

Not many differences between the 2008 Taurus and Sable. Obviously, exterior styling is different. Here's what I posted earlier: Here are the differences I could find between the base 2008 Taurus (SEL with no options) and the base 2008 Sable: 1) Exterior styling differences that are obvious (grilles, fake side vents on Taurus, none on Sable). I think the Sable ... Read More...

What Are Your Thoughts on the Return of the Taurus/Sable?

Re: Good Move [nvbanker]

Written by: gregg_vw on Feb 18, 2007 01:49 PM

I hope you are right and that Mulally is a miracle worker. The reasons I am pessimistic about Ford are several. They need a couple block busters and I cannot see where they will come from. Their moves to turn things around aren't doing much so far. The Fusion is a superior car to the current Malibu, but the Malibu still handily outsells it. The Edge is not s superior ... Read More...

Ford Taurus/Mercury Sable Sedans Pre-2008

so I'm a few days late with this

Written by: iusecad on Mar 13, 2004 08:39 AM

In an evident about-face, Ford has decided to keep Taurus and the Mercury Sable in showrooms through 2009. Earlier reports had these cars moving to fleet-only status at mid-decade to make room for the 2006-model Ford Futura and similar Mercury and Lincoln sedans based on the midsize Mazda 6 platform. Ford is also about to launch the Five Hundred and Mercury Montego ... Read More...
