1993 Mercury Sable GS Sedan from North America - Comments

Front engine mount.

Thermostat.

Temperature sending unit.

Had the catalytic convertor welded to the exhaust.

Air conditioning went out.

Left front turn signal blub replaced.

Although for the motor mount breaking, the only other major problem with the car has been overheating. I thought my radiator had gone bad, yet, as I studied the problem closer, I replaced the coolant and I realized that it needed more coolant after it has started and it had ran for sometime.

This car gets a lot of bad remarks by people who own them. Yet, when you don't take care of your car, it won't take care of you.

There are recalls or service advisories for motor mounts on this vehicle.

We have had our 1993 Mercury Sable for 3 months now. It has a 3.8L. We purchased the car from an elderly women who kept good records. The car only has 18,000 miles on it. The car was great for the first month that we had it. For two months now it has been sitting in our driveway with a blown head gasket. This car was impeccably maintained... so at this point I think that it's the car, and the poor design of all its components.

We bought our 1993 Sable in 1996 and have maintained it well. However, at 85,500 miles we found our selves with an $1800.00 bill for a blown head gasket. Two and a half years later at 103,769 miles we are told again that the head gasket has blown. Ford has refused to reimburse us for our cost the first time and when we called them again about the second time the head gasket has blown, they again refused any responsibilty even it is well documented that there have been having ongoing problems with the 3.8 litre engine. In this case we opted not to fix the car, but to trade it in on an import. Our experience with Ford has left a bitter taste in our mouths and we refuse to purchase Ford in the future not because of the failure, but because of poor customer service.

dont buy this car unless you are desperate for some wheels.

This car is junk.
