1992 Mercury Grand Marquis Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I bought my 1992 Mercury Grand Marquis LS in 2003. Since then I have had to replace: The starter (twice); Water pump; Battery (twice); Driver's side seat frame; Gear shift rod; Oil filter extension housing; All 4 shock absorbers; Valve stem seals; Cat-back exhaust (converted to dual exhaust); All four power window regulators without motors; Both metal rear brake lines; Front passenger ABS sensor; Drive belt tensioner; Idler arm bushing; Fuel pump; Fuel pressure regulator. And various tune-up parts: plugs, wires, air and oil filters, etc. So, if you can keep up with the needed repairs, it's a very reliable car. I plan on keeping this one until the timing chains break. At between $250 and $500 for the PARTS, it will be a deal breaker. Also, both of the mild steel brake lines burst near the fuel filter and had to be replaced. It's BAD. Don't try it at home unless you know what you're doing with a tubing bender. If you can lift the body off the frame it makes it a LOT easier.Feb 13, 2014
