| 1994 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP | WHILE DRIVING OR PARKING VEHICLE, IT WOULD EITHER STALL OR DIE OUT FOR NO REASON; WILL NOT START RIGHT AWAY; WHEN DRIVING OCCURS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED HOME WHEN STALLED LAST TIME. HAVE NOT TAKEN TO DEALER YET. *AK THE CAUSE FOR THE VEHICLE'S STALLING WAS FOUND TO BE FUEL PUMP FAILURE. THE STARTER ALSO FAILED. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WAS FIXED THREE TIMES BUT THE PROBLEM SITLL CONTINUES. THE CONSUMER COULD NOT PROPERLY INSTALL A NEW CHILD SEAT. *YH |
| 2009 | SUSPENSION | I HAVE A 2009 MERC SABLE PREMIERE, WHEN I GO OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD THE STRUTS BOTTOM OUT, AND THE CAR LIKE SLIDES SIDE WAYS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND THEY LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT FORD SAYS WHEN DRIVING OVER BUMPS THE CAR WILL BOTTOM OUT AND THIS IS NORMAL. I TOLD THE SERVICE MAN THAT THIS WAS [XXX] AND HE SAID HE COULD NOT REPLACE THE STRUTS UNTIL THEY RECALL THEM. I ASKED HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST TO REPLACE THEM MYSELF AND HE SAID IT WOULD RUN $1000. TO HAVE ALL 4 REPLACED. DO PEOPLE HAVE TO GET KILLED BEFORE THEY WILL COVER THIS? I STILL HAVE WARRANTY LEFT ON MY CAR AND I WANT IT FIXED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.
