Montague, New Jersey, United States

This truck was purchased by my mother in June 2010 at a local ford dealer. It was a three year turned in local lease with about 32k on it.Our family has put about 70K miles on it in the 4 years we have had it. It runs and drives beautiful. We took very good care or it mechanically and all scheduled services were preformed. The tires have about 5K miles on them and are like new. A four wheel alignment was done at that time. The transmission fluid and filters were changed, the brake fluid was flushed/ changed along with the pads and rotors about 15K ago, the power steering fluid was flushed/changed, throttle body fuel injection all cleaned (by dealer) , newer battery, oil changes were done with only ford motorcraft oil and most recently a complete tune up (all new coil packs and plugs) cost 1,000. My mother was a fanatic about preventive maintenance ....The truck runs awesome. She no longer can drive it in her 70's and we really have no use for it any longer. It has all the cool options : heated power front seats , power folding third row seats, power adjustable gas & brake pedal, Navigation , satellite radio, power moonroof, parking sensors, towing package, roof rack, V8 , All Wheel Drive, rear air conditioning, 18 inch wheels, and black leather interior. There is a small chip in the windshield. A small dig in front rim. There are lots of chips and scratches and specs all over the car. It is still shiny but desperately needs a compounding & wax .The interior needs a shampoo & leather cleaner. We could have done a better job keeping it clean. This is the main reason I will set a low reserve. In addition, there is a good sized scrape on the front drivers bumper and passenger rear door. There are no check engine lights on and all systems function as they should. This is a fun safe truck to drive as it handles very responsively. THIS A NO RESERVE AUCTION

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.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
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.
