1999 Ford Taurus SE review from North America
"We'll see if this Ford treats me well"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A/C compressor clutch went out -- very costly.
Check engine light, just a bad hose.
Needed new ball joints and steering links.
General comments?
It's not a bad car. I've never been a fan of Ford, but this car is decent.
I don't like the motor I have in it, because it is a bear to work on and labor costs, well they'll get you if you don't take care of it.
I do wish there were more cup holders available, but you can't have it all.
Very fast acceleration... good if you like to get your tension out.
