1993 Mercury Grand Marquis Ls Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Salisbury, Maryland, United States
This classic Mercury is guaranteed to have less than 100,000 original miles, although the odometer recently stopped functioning. The car was purchased new in Cape Charles, Virginia by the original owners and has remained in their family until I purchased it from their son, who is a personal friend and drove it for a short time before selling to me while settling his late parent's estate. This car truly is a rare gem. LS Trim includes the beautiful burgundy leather seats which can be seen in the pictures and are in near-perfect condition. All leather has been cleaned and conditioned and will last for many years to come. The interior is perfect with the exception of a few stains on the carpets. The headliner is totally intact and in perfect condition. (see pictures) The dash board, doors and all trim and interior/exterior lights are intact and in working order. The electric radio antennae mast works perfectly and the AM/FM radio is in "as new" excellent working condition. All speakers function perfectly with no distortion. The original owner's manual is in the glove box. This car was never abused in any way and literally was driven by a retired couple its entire life. The shiny black exterior is rock solid and all the original paint is intact with no bubbling or rust. I have been under the car and all panels are solid and rust-free. The car has never been driven on salt treated roads and spent its entire life south of the Mason Dixon. There are some minor surface scratches but all the sheet metal is strait and there are no dents, cracks or missing moldings or exterior trim. Known items that do not currently work:
This car will provide comfortable and reliable transportation for years to come, or will be an excellent addition to a classic collection. The Grand Marquis is the upmarket equivalent of the Ford Crown Victoria and there are still thousands of these cars on the American road. New and used parts are plentiful and easily accessible if needed. My father has owned three Crown Vic's and has always boasted of 25-27 mpg on the highway and 20+ mpg overall with this V8 engine. Ride and comfort is remarkably smooth. The car can be seen and test driven by appointment in Salisbury, MD. On Mar-05-14 at 06:54:03 PST, seller added the following information: Hello Bidders: Thank you for your interest in this car. The minimum is set at $1,950 and this car is worth much more. It is a steal at this price and if the minimum is not reached on this auction the car will be kept, and not be relisted as this is the second attempt. Thanks for your interest. Now you know what it will take to buy it! |

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
