On the 1996-2009 Mercury Sable, the Sable's power steering system is a recurring complaint area: a failing pump whines or squeals (especially at startup or when turning), leaks fluid, or loses assist entirely. Owners report rack-and-pinion units and pumps being replaced multiple times, and groaning on sharp turns traced to the rack. After pump or high-pressure-hose replacement, trapped air commonly causes lingering noise and stiff steering until the system is properly bled.
Replace a leaking or noisy power steering pump and worn pressure/return hoses; replace the rack and pinion if it leaks or groans. After any repair, thoroughly bleed the system to remove trapped air. Keep the reservoir filled with the correct Mercon-spec power steering fluid to avoid pump damage.
