1969 Cougar Xr-7 Project Car, 84k Miles, Ps Pb, Auto W/console, Tach & Gauge Pkg on 2040-cars
Vancouver, Washington, United States
Selling a 1969 Cougar XR-7 project car. This was a daily driver when purchased in 2000 and parked in a shop. It has not been moved since. I put a battery in it and some gas in the carb, and it fired right up. SHOULD be a runner/driver as nothing has been removed or changed, but I am selling it as-is as a non-operable project.
Clear title. Loaded car including tachometer and gauge package, courtesy light group, leather interior, bucket seats and console, power disc brakes, power steering, more. Dash is in beautiful condition without any cracks. Gauges look good; tachometer works. Console great, too. Back seat and side panels are excellent, passenger seat could be dyed and used, driver's bucket has some damage. Headliner is partially down and damaged. Door panels are nice both sides; d/s is off to lube up window regulator; working fine now. Glass good all around. Engine is original and untouched other than wrong air cleaner lid. It had A/C originally, but the compressor is no longer present. The car overall is pretty darn straight. There is one small dent in the lower d/s front fender where it meets the door. There is surface rust where the repaint has failed as shown in the pictures. The only apparent rust-through is at the lower edge of the rear window channel. Trunk looks solid and floors feel solid, rockers are sound, etc. Original color was light blue; current is a repaint in darker blue. You may call me at 360-936-9257 with any questions you may have. While every effort is being made to describe the car accurately, it is in fact a 45-year-old vehicle and being sold as-is, without warranty or guaranty expressed, written, or implied. Payment is due within 3 days of auction's end via cash, paypal, or bank wire transfer. Shipping is the full responsibility of the buyer. I will make myself available for loading. |

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.

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.
NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
