Overview & Reviews

Four new colors are added to the paint chart, while approach lighting and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with compass become standard equipment.

• Excellent value for the money, high level of safety, available as a sedan or a wagon.

• Forgettable rental car persona, no rear disc brakes on the sedan.

  white stallion - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By bill412 - July 17 - 10:43 am

  Very nice car. Rides as nicely as my old Crown Vic. Had a transmission problem that the dealer could not fix. The wiring harness was shorting out to the end plate. After 5 tries, they finally replaced it. No more problems of any kind since then. Gas mileage is great going under 75MPH: almost 30MPG on a road trip.

  I must have found the one lemon! - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By Matt - June 4 - 5:03 pm

  Within 6 mos. the heat started coming on when we turned on the A/C. It still does this. No one can find the problem. Sometimes the heat comes on with the system off. My wife went to start the car in the parking lot at work and the air bags deployed. Glad she wasnt driving down the highway. Im about to buy a Subaru. Maybe the air bags will wait for an accident to work. I will contact Ford about the issue. This car must have been built slowly on Mondays so everyone else got a good one. That would be a good plan to keep the workers with hangovers busy building lemons. Im glad to here no one else has lived our nightmare. We still owe $3,500 on it. Anyone want a Sable for parts?

  Have had my Sable LS for over 1 year - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By ramets - February 28 - 10:33 am

  Plain and simple, just a great, carefree car. You can spend more for less, but why? This car has very nice ammenities comparable with cars in the 28,000-30,000 range. As an added bonus, get the Mach Stereo. The sound is great, and for those of you who love AM radio (sportstalk, etc), the reception is great and outperforms stuff I have heard in an Acura.

  Couldnt beat the price - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By MerleB - November 26 - 10:00 am

  We bought this car with only 10,000 miles for $11,775. Lots of car for the money, couldnt have touched anything remotely comparable for the price. Remainder of factory warranty. Certainly not my dream car (BMW 740)but it is a great value.

  Hertzs Loss, My Gain... - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By The Big O - December 2 - 2:00 am

  Bought this car from a local dealer, that had bought it back from Hertz. It had 17,925 miles, and got it for $11k. Took it to Illinois to my brother-in- laws wedding that same week. Vulcan V6 did well with 4 adults and one flower girl. Tighter handling/smoother ride than 2002 Ford Taurus counterpart. Interior in two-tones is very pleasant.

  TRIED & TRUE - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By Joe Wisz Hebron, IN - October 15 - 5:53 pm

  This vehicle is tried and true. You cant go wrong with it, unless the owner abused it. I previously owned a 2002 Sable LS Premium (ALL the bells and Whistles) now our family needed a second car, this was a no brainer decision for us! Ford (Mercury) is stupid for retiring it and now trying to reinvent themselves by slapping the Sable label on the Montego, which I also own. Toyota wont be retiring the Camry or Avalon name any time soon! The Montego is in a class of its own and is also an excellent vehicle. Fords got good product and great value, forget the imports buy AMERICAN and keep your neighbors working! The Sable is a GREAT vehicle- if you get a deal buy one

  Best used value in a sedan - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By NCrob - April 1 - 2:00 am

  I just purchased this car. I had test driven every type of mid-size sedan including the Accord, Diamante, Altima, and Camry. Dollar for dollar, you CANT beat the Sable (or Taurus). Standard V-6, power everything and more room and comfort than all of the above. Did I mention the one I found had just 7500 miles on it and was just six months old and I paid $12,200? Dont buy new, just look for almost- new.

  Great Car - 2002 Mercury Sable
  By cyn202 - October 21 - 10:00 am

  I purchased this car in December of 2003 for $10,500.00 including tax/title. The car was a fleet car from Enterprise with 15,000 miles on it. I still had time on the original warranty and I also purchased the extended warranty. So I am covered until the car is payed off. This is one of the nicest cars I have ever owned. It has a very roomy interior and a large, deep trunk, CD player, tinting rear view mirror. It a great car to drive and I am getting well over 300 miles of "in town" driving to one tank of gas! I fill my tank up only twice a month. I am very pleased with this car. In fact, the car pictured here on this site is the same color as mine..."arizona beige".
