Vehicle mileage is 133,432 at the time of listing but will increase slightly as I use this vehicle to commute 60 miles round trip to work. The tires were purchase from Discount Tire at 124,798 miles. Discount Tires receipt shows these tires to be a 45,000 mile tire. The mileage warranty is not transferable to additional owners however, the road hazard, tire workmanship and rotate and balance appears to be transferable according to the receipt. This warranty on the tires will expire August 5, 2014. The battery is about 3 months old. The rear axle was replaced in August of 2011. The mechanic said the axle came off of a Vic with about 75,000 miles. There is a hole on the seat back of the drivers seat. The interior is in decent shape for a used police vehicle. I purchased the car from the City of San Marcos, Texas in August 2011. I have primarily used the car for stationary security work where it was imperative to have a car that could idle for extended periods and not have overheating issues. It has served its purpose well but I am doing much less of this work now and need the money to put into another vehicle. The AC and heater both work very well. There is a spot light on the drivers side that does not work and is loose. The passenger side has the stem for a spot light but neither the light not the handle is present. The front seats are clothe. The rear seats are vinyl. Both front seat belts work. The rear seat belts do not have the female buckle receiver attached so you would need to purchase them if you need to carry passengers in the rear seat. The headliner is in good shape and is not sagging at all. There is not a working dome light. All headlights, tail lights, brakes lights, turn signals work. The headlights do seem to be aimed down too much but the high beams offer enough light for night driving. The floor of the interior is plastic. I have two carpet mats in the front floorboards. There are several holes in the dash from San Marcos mounting police equipment. The front push bumper has the flat black paint flaking off. The hood has about a 6" by 10" area flaking the white clear coat off. The roof of the car has some paint starting to peel next to the mounted GPS antenna that was left by SMPD. There are four mounts from the low jack locator system antennas on the roof. The trunk has the mount for a radio antenna. There are NO leaking issues where the mounts are on the roof and trunk. The check engine light is currently on and I will try to remedy that this week. The belt is squeezing badly also so I will try to remedy that this week also. I will post an update when these two issues are resolved. There is a popping noise in the steering when I cut the wheel all the way to the left or right at low speeds. I do not know what this sound is.

Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Ford reflects on radical Mustang concept that never reached showrooms
Tue, 25 Jun 2013The Ford Mustang that we all know and love made major waves in the auto industry way back in 1964 by offering style and reasonable pricing with optional V8 power. Its long hood and short rear deck, combined with a low-slung and sporty cockpit, made a lasting impression in the minds of consumers and car designers alike, and its basic shape has so endured the test of time that it's still in use today.
This being the case, you may be interested to know that the first Mustang of 1964.5 wasn't actually the first Mustang at all, being preceded by a concept car that made its public debut in 1962. This concept was nothing like the car that would eventually make it into production, with a radical wedge shape and a small V4 engine sitting behind the car's two occupants, driving the rear wheels. In other words, the conceptual Mustang was pretty much the complete opposite of the production Mustang besides the name.
Ford has kindly decided go through its massive archive to bring the original Mustang concept back into the public eye. The company goes so far as to pose this question to fans of the pony car: "Should we borrow a few of these style elements for the next iteration of the Mustang?"
