'88 Mercury Colony Park 8 Pass Station Wagon - Ford 5.0l - Loaded - Great Driver on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
|
Here's a really nice original Mercury Grand Marquis wagon, a 1988 Colony Park. The paint is all original and still looks good for its age. There's a few chips, small dings, etc - ok for a driver. No rust anywhere, top or bottom. Wood grain is all original and intact, again, some little nicks and chips here and there. Good glass, good bumpers. Tires have under 1000 miles on them. I mainly drive this car around town but have taken several road trips as well, it's a very comfortable and quiet ride! The car runs and drives great, turn the key and go anywhere, the car has never given me a lick of trouble. The venerable Ford 5.0 liter runs smooth and runs strong. Great car on the freeway with power to spare for passing, when the tranny kicks down it will surprise you! No smoke and no leaks, no problems.
Very nice interior, everything works correctly with no glitches. Power windows and locks all work great, good heater and fan, can't vouch for the AC this time of year but the compressor clicks on like it should. Seats are in great shape and have no rips or tears, headliner is tight, carpet is good and the wagon has no bad odors. No-one has smoked in this wagon, the ashtrays and lighters are unused. The pop-up seats in the rear turn this into an 8 passenger vehicle. Last of the breed! The classic RWD American station wagon. This Mercury is selling at No Reserve, the high bidder is the winning bidder. Please ask questions before bidding and be ready to buy if you're the high bidder, let's no waste either one's time. $500 deposit via paypal within 24hrs and balance due within one week. I can help with shipping arrangements. Thanks for looking, email with any questions. |

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There 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.
Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
