1990 Mercury Sable body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 23 of 23, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Received recall notice and contacted dealer. Was given an appointment for june. That was not acceptable. Dealer only doing 5 vehicles a day & was the earliest date available. Owner not happy with situation. 93v‑106.002.
Subframe mounts failed causing subframe to collapse prior to recall. (98s36)
The sub-frame locks, bolts, and washers had to be replaced when the sub-frame dropped. The steering became extremely difficult. I had the car towed to the dealer and repaired at the cost of $271.96. When I received recall 98s36 I took it and the orginal receipt to the dealer. I was told that the sub-frame fasteners which were replaced in october of 1998 were from the front corners of the sub-frame. The parts they replaced were one subframe mount kit (fmc e6pz 5a364 a) and two nut-m12 x 1.75 plates (fmc n804482 s100 ). Are these the part numbers involved in the recall? I would appreciate some feedback on this issue. The receipt I have doesn't define whether the fasteners replaced where for the front or rear corners of the sub-frame.
Rear sub-frame mounts came unattached allowing motor and transmission to fall onto the ground with near head on collision due to loss of control and damaging other components. Component was repaired prior due to recall however recall repair failed.
While driving the body mounts supporting transmission & engine broke. This caused the transmission/engine to fall. The engine fell on the steering binding. Had no control over the steering.
Recall service on subframe mounts denied, mounts failed causing steering lock up.
Was informed of recall already performed on vehicle by manufacturer. Did not own vehicle at time of recall. Repair shop said no work, recall or otherwise, done on vehicle. Could not recall repair on vehicle since recall work was already done by dealer.
In reference to 93v106, the vehicle's defective rear subframe corroded, causing the subframe to drop and almost caused an accident. Vehicle had exact problem as the recall, but not included.
Consumer received recall letter. Took vehicle in for service, remdey did not correct the problem. Consumer is seeking assistance. Recall number 93v106002.
