1997 Ford Taurus GL review from North America
"A nice, comfortable and safe car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I didn't have major problems with this car.
Since I brought the car I changed the altinator twice.
The engine never over heated.
Also the engine makes to much noise when driving.
General comments?
On the other hand, this is a really good car to own. Had no problems when traveling to Florida from New York then to Chicago and California.
It is a good car to travel with. I got 426 miles before I refueled, not bad.
Very comfortable, safe and reliable car.
No problems with the transmission.
This is one American family car that takes abuse and yet takes you to where you want to go without problems.
