Used 1992 Mercury Sable Sedan Consumer Reviews
Reliable, affordable to fix, comfortable, good in
I bought the car in 2011 with 37,000 miles on it. It was easy to maintain, reliable and comfortable. I had to change starter twice (the aftermarket ones turned out to not be very reliable), struts in the front, radiator, brake lines for the rear brakes I believe. Considering I bought it for $1600, it was 20 years old, and all these repairs didn't cost much, it was a great first car. Other than that - regular oil changes and brake pads. I sold it with 100,000 to an older man, who owned one like this before and new how to take care of it.

Sable - smooth and crisp
Smooth and crisp response, the Mercury Sable is the car for you. Like lemonade on a hot, sunny day, you'll enjoy the cool pleasure of running your fingers over the dash and feeling refreshed. Hey, this car is about 10 years old now. Maybe you should save your money and buy something a little bit newer, eh?
My Sable Review
I purchased my Sable with only 48000 miles on it. It now has over 130000 on the odometer. I used to drive 100 miles a day. After about 4 thousand dollars in repairs it runs and drives like new. New Trans., re-built engine, new suspension, new front end equipment. You name it, I replaced it.
Worst mechanical car ever owned
This car at 72000 miles has a knock and Ford tells me it needs a new engine. This is in spite of conservative driving and regular oil changes as required. Every other car I've had has exceeded 100,000 miles and 10 years. This is after having the head gasket blow at 52,000 miles (Same story as Jim22) and Ford refused to give any coverage under warranty. I will never buy another Ford. Very disappointed and angry at such irresponsible action and lack of owing up to their mistakes.
Keeps goin' and goin' and goin'
I've had this car for 9 years now and it has 253K miles on and still running. I have had many repairs within the last year dealing with engine, brakes, and some electrical, but my only problem now is a loud muffler! I feel very safe in this car in the snow and because of it's size. Looking for a new car now and need to find something that can live up to the long life of this car! Great car!
