1990 Ford Tempo GL review from North America
"What do you expect, its a Ford"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front seal is bad and leaks oil.
I've had to put two new axles in.
The check engine light comes on every time I stop and stays on.
General comments?
The car is very tempermental. Some days it runs like it came off the factory floor and some days it runs like its next stop is the junkyard.
