2001 Ford Mondeo Ghia review from Belgium
"Nice car...! But also irritating"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A very irritating wind noise from the left front door when driving above 90 km/hour, this is still not solved 3 months after I bought the new car, although some efforts have already been made by the dealer. But it seems like the manufacturer can't resolve the problem.
The lights of the brakes at the back of the car are still working, even after removing my foot from the pedal.
Also, this problem hasn't been resolved after 3 months. Tough, the dealer promised me to solve this problem.
After using the seat belt at the back only for a few times, it got stuck. The mechanism doesn't work anymore. Also not solved after 3 months.
The fuel consumption is still not diminishing as the mentioned average for the particular car.
General comments?
The interior design is very good and there is a lot of space for the passengers.
