Ford has no integrity!

The Sable has actually good body design. The 3.8L engine is surprisingly responsive. The problem is integrity. Experienced all the problems this model is well known for: blown engine gasket (replaced with a re-manufactured engine), airconditioner, radiator leak @ 33,000 miles (replaced), electrical malfunctions. Called Ford several times to ask for help, but Ford refused despite admitting having many calls and recalls. Many of the problems are well known. Maybe, Ford is having its problems now because it lacks sufficient accountability for its bad design.

Get rid of it after 100,000 miles

I bought my 93 mercury sable used in 06' with 92,000 miles. I thought it had at least 100,000 more good miles on it since I have a 98 Buick Century with 350,000 miles on the original engine. Soon after buying the brake/shift lock jammed up on me and had to be replaced. After that, air conditioning unit, fuel pump, rear door lock wont work, alternator, check engine light started staying on, dash light bulbs burnt out, key ignition switch replaced. In the first 3 months of 2009 alone I have: replaced motor mounts, tie rods, window went out of track, and now a part in front of transmission which will run about $600. Stay away from this year Sable unless someone give you the car for free!!!!

This car started going downhill ever since i bought it in december 2000. Check engine light always comes on, rear view mirror does not want to stay on, starter and alternator are going, sounds like jet liner, also, iwas driving down a smooth road and left passenger vent popped out of dashboard. leaks every fluid besides gas(at least not yet) rear stabilizer bar is shot, and the rear right window doesn't work. the car is nickel and dimeing me to death, you're better off getting a foreign car. AC doesn't work either.

Our Sable was a program car with 23k miles. We could go anywhere in that car, which being military happend quite often. Very roomy and comfortable. Excellent gas mileage My husband did all the seasonal maintenance and oil changes. Never had a problem. Was really impressed with its safety when a lady pulled out in front of us and made us T-bone her car. (totaled our Sable) The front end was pushed all the way to our dashboard The dashboard was intact and did not cave in on us. We were able to get out safely. I bought a Taurus thinking I was getting the same type car but have not been pleased with it. Wish I could find another 93 Sable!

Bought this car fully loaded with 43000 mi, now has 89000. Done the usual maintenance, had to get the AC, left rear window fixed. Had no major problems until head gasket broke earlier this year. After fixed still has a lot of pick-up, performs great. Well made for a US car. Friend has similar car and has only run into problems with AC in 80000 miles.
