1998 Mercury Sable LS review from North America
"It's a Mercury, not a Ford"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problems I have with this car are; the power antenna is a little bent, it could use more soundproofing, and there is a back-light in the radio out.
General comments?
This car is fantastic. I have had several of my friends say I have the nicest car they have ever been in. The way the interior is designed is incredible. I can sit back and all the controls are still within reach. Not having to constantly adjust the A/C is great too, with the automatic climate controls. The key-less and remote entry are great, I can lock my keys in the trunk and not worry. The ride is nice and firm and the engine is very responsive. I have to admit, I smile a great big smile whenever I toast a modified four-banger off the line.
