#537190June 22, 1998
POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR MONTHS TO FIND INFORMATION ON PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. THE IGNITION SWITCH IS ONLY ONE PROBLEM. FROM TIME TO TIME, WHEN BACKING UP AND THEN TRYING TO GO FORWARD, THE TRANSMISSION WILL HESITATE AND SLIP BEFORE IT CATCHES. I HAD HEARD IN EARLY 1997 ABOUT A RECALL FOR 1994 MERCURY SABLES, BUT WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NO SUCH THING. IS THERE SOMEWHERE ELSE I CAN CHECK. I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER IN DETROIT WITH NO LUCK.
