Used 2000 Mercury Sable Sedan Consumer Reviews
After you hit 100,000 miles
After you hit 100,000 miles a lot of the parts need to be replaced. I notice the parts on the car are cheaper when I replace these parts the replacement parts were made better I had to replace the lower ball joints sway bar links and bushing, hoses, belts, axles bearings, transmission but one thing it has a great motor paid 2000 dollars at 73,000 miles for the car put 3000 dollars after it reach 100,000 miles
Don't like it much, but it's dependable
We purchased the car because we had to get something larger with a second child on the way. With 2 kids now and 2 car seats, not enough room. Now, that we're trying to trade it in I'm finding we overpaid by way to much. The cars okay but not for the price. I wish I would have bought an SUV in the first place or a Honda, at least the payments I've made would amount to something!!!!

Decent but not great!
I bought the car in September of 2006 and I wish I wouldn't have because the fifth day I had to spend $500 to get my intake fixed, and I've spent over $800 dollars trying to get my a/c fixed and still is not fixed right. When I accelerate hard it blows warm, and another 5 months after that I broke down on the side of the road because my transmission had gone out on it. Overall I would never buy another Sable again because it's all Ford parts.
My 2000 Mercury Sable LS Premium
I have had this car 1 month shy of 3 years. It has 25,000 miles on it. I really like the car. The interior, paint, & 24 valve V6 are all great. Like others have stated on the 2000 Sable there have been too many recalls of which most were not necessary (in my opinion). My car also has a very slight oil leak and a rear window/trunk leak which 2 different dealers can not fix. They are annoying little problems that should have been fixed. Ford needs to get there designs tested before sending them out to the consumer. There "Quality is Job 1" is a joke. The little problems that I have had and the number of recalls should have been caught.
Transmission Problem
Ford has a real issue in a faulty differential. 33 months old and $2400 later. Only highway miles and no hard driving. Think twice and don't buy new or used!!!
