  • My 5th Sable - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    This is the 5th Mercury Sable I have owned. It is the one I have liked the best. The way it handles and the ride it gives is superior to other cars in its model group. Winter driving is safe and the anti lock brakes work very well. When you need power it is there.

  • Sable is a gas saver and comfortable car - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    Comparing to our former Toyota camry,we find that The Mercury Sable is more comfortable on driving. Besides,the car is really an energy saver, our recorded data is about 21mpg at the city and 27- 28mpg for highway.

    This 2002 Mercury sable was fully equipped, moon roof was super, leather bucket seats up with CD console made long road trips pleasant. All features worked very well, Had great pick-up and over 25 mpg on the highway. Felt safe and secure in this vehicile. Fun to ride and safe on the crowded streets as well as the open interstates.

  • Premium Sable - Great Car - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    This vehicle provides a smooth comfortable ride. No crampy back seat. The premium model has many desirable features. This car has 4 air bags, a glow in the dark trunk opener inside the trunk, traction control and other safety features that has one this model government safety awards. My insurance rates actually were lower than what I was paying for on my 1995 4 wheel drive Rodeo. I have the Vibrant White Clearcoat and Chromatic Wheels which gives the car a sporty cool look. For the first time, I am completely happy with my automobile! Happy Sabling

  • Company car - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    Car drives well on the road but there seems to be a lot of wind noise around the windshield. And of course, there is a recall notice on this vehicle, Ford leads the world in recall notices.

  • what a piece - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    car only has 90 tyhousand miles on it the interior is falling apart, the tape deck quit working, uncomfortable on ong trips probally due to the leather seats, was handed down to me by my parents, that upgraded to a top of the line Acura, with the money that I have put into repairing the car I could have flat bought a nice brand new car or had a really large down payment on one. This car broke me for Ford Motor Company. I will never buy another Ford midsize again

  • So far so good - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I have owned a 2001 Sable for over seven months now and have been pleased. The build quality is good with no obvious flaws but not as refined as more expensive cars. The engine is powerful and responsive but hampered by a transmission that cant seem to decide when it wants to shift under certain conditions. Although rental companies have large quantities of Sables on their lots, no one has ever asked me if my car was in the shop.

  • A Great Car - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    This has been a great car to own so far. Absolutely no problems whatsoever. Comfortable, quiet, and good acceleration.

  • Good Car - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    Like this car. Good things: runs great in Indiana winters, smooth ride, decent gas mileage, quiet engine, sturdy build (hit a deer 2 yrs ago and only small dent in hood), and love the power seat and pedals. Bad things: dead battery 2 weeks after purchase, water leak into blower motor during middle of winter, had to replace camshaft sensor, rough idle (so bad that "computer" had to be updated), a little sluggish, starting to notice wear and tear at near 90,000 miles. Overall, this car has run well for me, but it does feel like Im driving a boat. This car is a trooper and I feel safe driving it.

  • Better than the Grand Marquis! - 2002 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I currently own a Grand Marquis & never thought Id find a better car. The Sable just changed my mind. This car has more trunk room, fold down rear seats, its amazingly comfortable, & has more features than I imagined it would.
