We have had this car for over 3 years now and it has not had one single problem. It drives great and has a classy look to it inside and out. I recently purchased a Mountaineer and considered trading this car in instead of our older one, but my wife would not part with it!

A lot of car for the money. Has a big car ride. Very comfortable with a secure feeling as far as road handling, particularly on a highway.

list of problems before i reached 20000, miles. The fuel pump broke 3 times. Once while I was on vacation stranding me in the middle of no where. The second time in rush hour traffic. The rotors had to be replaced after 10000 miles, the drivers side power window and side view mirror also broke. Once the dealership fixed all of these problems i have not had one since. Fords service did take care of all of the problems but it still was a major inconvenience. I will be looking more at imports for my next vehicle.

One year and no problems. Exterior looks good, but interior ordinary. Lots of "no cost extras" make this car a good value for the $$. Comparably equipped competitors cost thousands more. Have not had any of the problems some of the owners have described and am happy. Depreciation is bad, so shop carefully.

My Mercury Sable Experience

This car has performed beautifully. No major repairs. Required 2 minor repairs during entire ownership, both under warranty. I am not happy with the leather interior, in that one small section on each door had to be replaced, having loosened and came off. Had to have front-end alignment package installed before being aligned. This equipment should be standard.
