May 12, 1998, on Ford Story:
My 1989 Mercury Sable is on its 4th transmission. The first went out at 68000 miles (warrenty was for 60000 miles. Ford informed me "nice to have your business four years ago now get lost".) I had a used one put in it lasted 30000 miles. Upon its failure the mechanic discovered that the second transmission had been rebuilt with the new and improved parts. This time I had it rebuilt again It lasted less then two months. The mechanic redid it again and now it has lastd almost 10000 miles. I will never buy a Ford product again.
