Consumer Description

THIRD TIME HERE WE GO!!! THE TORQUE CONVERTER HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE ON THIS MERCURY SABLE PIECE OF JUNK! PLEASE SEE NHTSA REPORT ID # 10333941 THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THE TORQUE CONVERTER FAILED. I HAD IT REPAIRED AT A FORD / MERCURY DEALERSHIP. RECEIVED A 12/12 WARRANTY (12K MILES OR 12 MONTHS) IT FAILED AGAIN AT ELEVEN MONTHS AND 12100 MILES 100 MILES OVER THE WARRANTY SO THEY TOLD ME TOUGH LUCK BUDDY.. I HAD IT REPAIRED AGAIN SAME DEALERSHIP. I DID NOT EVEN BOTHER TO FILE A REPORT I FIGURED ITS A WASTE OF TIME ANY HOW. AND NOW HERE WE GO AGAIN 3RD TIME. THAT FORD CAN MANUFACTURE AND SELL JUNK AND GET AWAY WITH IT IS CRIMINAL. I GUESS BUYER BEWARE DON'T BY FORD AND ESPECIALLY DO NOT BUY FORD FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. WHEN IT COMES TO FORD... I WOULD NEVER ASCRIBE TO MALICE THAT WHICH IS ADEQUATELY EXPLAINED BY INCOMPETENCE WHEN IT COMES TO CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ... DOES IT MATTER WHAT THE JUDGE DRIVES ? HAVE YOU BEEN DRIVEN BY FORD LATELY. *TR
