Safety - What the Auto Press Says

The '09 Mercury Sable shines in the category of safety -- earning impressive scores in crash tests and featuring a long list of standard safety equipment.

The 2009 Mercury Sable performs extraordinarily well in federal government crash tests - earning a high score of five stars in both front- and side-impacts. It also receives a rollover rating of four stars. What's more, the insurance industry rates the highly-similar 2008 model a "Good" (the highest possible) in both front- and side-impact crash tests, and designates it as a "Top Safety Pick."

Standard safety equipment includes dual-stage front, side-impact, and side curtain airbags, as well as AdvanceTrac Electronic Stability Control. Intelligent All-Wheel Drive is optional.

  • "The first priority on many families' lists is safety, and it doesn't get much better than the Sable in this regard -- the government has given this Mercury perfect five-star ratings across the board." -- Edmunds
  • "Available AWD is a safety plus for bad weather. Ditto the antiskid system, and Ford deserves kudos for finally making it standard, rather than optional." -- Consumer Guide
