1989 Ford Taurus LX review from North America
"Worst car on the road!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake lines blew when I first got the car.
Chews up pads and rotors.
Blown head gasket two days after I started driving it.
Starter is shot.
Bad rear shocks.
Bad rod knock.
Burns oil.
Worst car I've ever had!
Never buy a Taurus!
General comments?
Junk!
