1993 Cougar 5.0 liter MOTOR & AOD transmission- 78,500.  Buyer takes whole car.

This was purchased to use the drive train in a 60's/70's F150 but plans changed.  It is the last year for the non computer controlled automatic transmission.  The oil pan gasket has a small leak & the rear main seal may have a small leak.  Motor & trans burn no oil and full synthetic oil was used in both.  Car has variable power steering electronic valve- you will need a new power steering hose or the correct wire harness.  A new master cylinder was installed & there is a small leak somewhere in the system. Roof rail on driver's side leaks & some water is channeled into the trunk. Car needs a stabilizer bushing on the driver's side.  There's rust along the bottom of the doors, on inside. There's a rust spot behind the driver's door and the paint is fish eyed.  Retractable seat belts are set in position.  Battery is from 06/12.  Car was adult owned & driven.  Car is being driven & mileage will increase.  Car must be titled in purchaser's name.  Car is inspected through 05/15.  Shocks/struts replaced- about 15k ago.  Car has a new heater core & one new axle seal and upper & lower ball joints.  Car needs front rotors.  AC does not blow cold & passenger window does not work, but window motor does, I believe.  New 15" Bridgestone tires- about 10k.  Car has dual cats.  308 open end 8.8 rear w/ ind suspension. Seats/carpet show wear & have tears.  Antenna only works manually & radio reception goes up and down.  Sold as is.  Car is also listed under "Parts" on Ebay so first buyer gets car if it's sold twice.  May trade for Jeep Wrangler 4.0/5 speed.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There 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.
