I HAVE A VERY NICE 1971 MONTEGO MX WITH LESS THAN 66,000 ACTUAL MILES. IT DRIVES AND RUNS LIKE IT SHOULD AND DOES NOT BURN OIL. THE VINYL TOP AND INTERIOR ARE VERY NICE WITH NO RIPS OR TEARS. THE PAINT IS PROBABLY MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD AND DOES HAVE SOME SMALL CHIPS OR SCRATCHES BUT NO BODY DAMAGE. THIS IS A SOLID CAR, THE BUMPERS LOOK TO HAVE BEEN RECHROMED AT SOME POINT WITH SOME FLAKING ON THE FRONT. I REALLY HATE TO PART WITH THIS CAR BUT HEALTH ISSUES CAUSE US TO FACE REALITY AT TIMES. I ALMOST FORGOT THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING DOES NEED WORK. THIS IS A GREAT DRIVER FOR THE YOUNG GUY OR GAL WHO LIKES OLDER CARS. IT IS NOT A HOT ROD BUT A VERY NICE CAR.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners 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.
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.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.
