1991 Mercury Tracer LTS review from North America
"A really dependable car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I recently had to replace my timing belt. It was a reasonable price.
My emergency brake doesn't work. The cable has been tightened, but that didn't help. The calibur is stuck.
I have to refill the air contition with freon every two years.
The paint has oxidized some.
But other than that just general maintenance is all I have done.
The car is comfortable and gets great gas mileage. I won't give it up for anything. It has been the most dependable car I have ever owned.
General comments?
The car runs like a brand new one. It never hesitates to start even in the coldest weather. It handles great. I have really gotten my money's worth from this car. It has a sunroof and power windows and doors. I love my little mean machine.
