Saint Augustine, Florida, United States

This vehicle was purchased from an estate with 89K miles on it. I have driven it aprox. 4K miles maintenance free. I have traveled in it to NC, WVA and GA and have had no issues with it. This car is loaded to the gills and has been owned by an elderly couple, he died in 2010 and it was placed in her name. The A/C is climate control and will freeze you out. One of the issues I have seen with the car is the fact they never used the windows and the armatures are rust covered and you have to assist them just a bit. Once worked for awhile im sure they will be fine. The window regulator on the drivers window I believe is bad. This is a pretty car with very minimal wear on it, paint is in great shape, trunk deck has some tree sap on it but I have most of that off. The tires are new and a full size spare, with steel wheel. The wheels on the car are aluminum and in good shape. This has been a non smoking car. Carpet good with what looks to be still the original floor mats. s vehicle has a complete digital cluster in it, all in working order. Every now and then the alt light will come on and then goes off in about 3 min. I have had battery and alt checked out and no problems. This vehicle has P/S P/B P/WIN PWR SEATS, DRIVER AND PASSENGER,PWR/MIRRORS REAR WIND DEF PWR DOOR LOCKS LEATHER SEATS FRONT AND BACK 60/40 IN FRONT WITH ARM REST FULL CARPET WITH SOUND BARRIER A/C WITH CLIMATE CONTROL ALL IN WORKING ORDER Cruise control  While driving this vehicle the cluster stated it was getting 31 MPG , when I filled it up it was 30 MPG on the road, never checked in town fuel mileage. This would make a good primary car, or a good car for the kids or wife, most kids refuse to drive a boat this size so I have purchase a older cavalier for my daughter, now she is happy and im hung with a car I don't need. Located in Northern Florida, I would drive this car anywhere in the US. 500.00 deposit required with in 24 hrs. of being awarded the bid. Vehicle is being advertised locally, auction can be ended at sellers  choice.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday

Mon, 04 Oct 2010

Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The 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.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
