- the contact has a 1999 Mercury Sable. The contact stated that when she purchased the vehicle May 22 2006, the vehicle did not have heat. The contact stated that she has had many problems with this vehicle since she purchased it. The vehicle operates with a high temperature reading, and the transmission seems to slip gears when you apply the gas pedal and back fires while switching gears. The dealer has not addressed the failures that the contact has experienced with her vehicle. The contact stated that October of 2006 was the last time she corresponded with the dealer and they still have done nothing to help her.
