small white mark on rear passenger door from when my wife rubbed it pulling in the garage, but there is no scratch or dent, it's either paint the detailer couldn't buff out or car paint rubbed off but not very noticeable as you can't see, heated seats, I'm the 2nd owner, purchased with 18,000 miles, 15% window tint, K&N cold air intake, I will include a 2nd K&N air filter, I swap them out when I clean them, custom x-pipe done by Lyon's Muffler & Brake in San Marcos, Ca., Flowmaster Super 44 series mufflers, new exhaust tips with resonator delete, Alpine CD player with HD radio, 6 disk CD changer, I will also include a car cover, rear tires are new at 50,000 miles, not from doing burn outs but because they were the original tires, front tires are worn on the sides, silver rear bumper inserts, 1 pair Michelin windshield wipers still in box, I also have 1 qt of Motorcraft 5W20 synthetic blend motor oil left over I'll leave in the trunk, it doesn't burn or leak oil I just always keep one in there, I bought the car in 2011 with 18,000 miles. 90% of the miles I put on are highway miles, honestly...San Diego - Fresno, Monterey - Fresno, drove to Las Vegas I think only once, and most recently Monterey, Ca - San Angelo, Tx, just had the 55,000 regular scheduled maintenance done at Jim Bass Ford and it got a clean bill of health other than the front tire wear, I'm in the military and am getting stationed in Hawaii, so I recently bought a Jeep Wrangler because I think it'll be more practical there, I still owe on the car so my bank will mail you the title when it gets the check

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
