2008 Mercury Sable Sedan

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

The 2008 Mercury Sable is a full size Sedan boasting plenty of interior cabin room and a solid ride. The Sable is offered in base and Premier models with your choice of either 2WD or AWD. One engine is offered � a 263 horsepower 3.5-liter gas-powered V6 with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Safety equipment includes front/side-head/side-body airbags, ABS brakes, auto on/off headlights, parking assist, traction control and child safety rear door locks. Comfort and convenience features include air and cruise, keyless entry, heated lumbar seats and navigation.

Benefits of Driving a 2008 Mercury Sable Sedan

An extremely spacious interior--with best-in-class legroom--along with a very smooth, well-controlled ride are among the reasons to choose the 2008 Mercury Sable. Safety is another strong point; it has been named a 'Top Safety Pick' by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and received a five-star rating in all categories in the federal government's crash-testing program. The new Sable promises to be more exciting to drive, with 30 percent more power than the outgoing Montego, yet its fuel economy is improved by 10 percent, according to Mercury.

What's new for 2008?

The Mercury Sable, formerly called the Montego, gets a powerful, 3.5L Duratec 35 engine for 2008, along with a new six-speed automatic transmission. Altogether, the new powertrain gets a nearly ten-percent improvement in fuel efficiency over the previous one.

2008 Mercury Sable: What's New

Source: The Car Connection

Most cars undergo major changes for the new model year, but this year, the Mercury Sable returns - and it's the name that's a big change, since just last year the same sedan was sold as the Montego.

The Montego was only a recent addition to the Mercury lineup when, early in 2007, Ford announced it would revert to the name of the former best-selling mid-size sedan, which was an entirely different car. But there are other changes afoot in the Sable for 2008. Underhood, a 263-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 engine gives a much stronger boost to the Sable, through either the front or all four wheels via a six-speed automatic gearbox.

A fully independent suspension, four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes, and standard 17-inch wheels and tires contribute to the car's stellar ride and handling qualities. The suspension has been retuned in its return under the Sable nameplate.

Base and Premier models are offered. Unique interior trim can be specified from the Cyber Carbon look to Guitar Maple or San Macassar woodgrains. Base cars get cloth seats, while Premier cars get two-tone leather. Dual front, side, and curtain airbags and anti-lock brakes are standard on all cars, as well as power windows/locks/mirrors, a CD player, and a leather-wrapped shift knob.

Options on the new Sable include a DVD navigation and a DVD entertainment system, Sirius satellite radio, Ford's communications Sync system, stability control, 18-inch chromed wheels, a moonroof, and power-adjustable pedals.

Safety Ratings What do the Safety Ratings mean? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) performs independent crash testing of new vehicles and then assigns them a score based on their performance. The overall crash test rating is based on how a vehicle performs in the following tests: Driver Crash Grade: Measures the chance of a serious injury to a crash test dummy that is placed in a driver's seat and driven into a fixed barrier at 35 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less chance of injury. Passenger Crash Grade: Similar to the driver crash grade, only now the focus is on the passenger. Rollover Resistance: Simulates an emergency lane change to measure the likelihood of a vehicle rolling over. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less risk of rollover. Side Impact Crash Test - Front: Focuses on the front side of a vehicle. It simulates crashes that can occur in intersections by striking a 3,015-pound weight against the side of a vehicle at 38.5 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 5 percent or less chance of injury. Side Impact Crash Test - Rear: Similar to the front side impact test only now the focus is on the rear passenger.

Original Warranty Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months
Basic	36,000	36
Drivetrain	60,000	60
Corrosion	0	60
Roadside Assistance	60,000	60

Mercury Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Certified Pre-Owned Warranty To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer. Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include: Age/Mileage Eligibility To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers. Lease Term Certified Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less. Point Inspection These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details. Return/Exchange Program Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car. Roadside Assistance Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty. Special Financing Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers. Transferable Warranty When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect. Warranty Deductible This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
Manufacturer's 7 years / 100,000 miles Powertrain Limited Warranty from original in-service date. 12-month/12,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty. See dealer for details.
Age/Mileage Eligibility	6 model years or newer / less than 80,000 miles
Lease Term Certified	Yes
Point Inspection	172
Return/Exchange Program	No
Roadside Assistance	Yes
Special Financing	Yes
Transferrable Warranty	Yes
Warranty Deductible	$100
