Loved My Sable
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!
Great car for the money
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.
Good Car
It is a very good car. It is compfortable but the leather makes it a little hot or cold depending on the temprature when first getting in the car.
Great Car
Purchased new, put 160k on it. Have only done routine maintenace (oil change, tires etc). We did replaced 2 sensors back in 1999, cost $250 and just replaced the auto antenna. The car has held up well, we mostly go on long trips, we haven't even replaced the original brakes. Yes, we check them regularly. We have the 3.8L engine.
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.
