1996 Ford Taurus GL review from North America
"A very reliable, comfortable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission was replaced before I bought it, around 90,000 miles.
I replaced both front wheel bearings at 105,000 miles.
I replaced the radiator at 135,000 miles.
General comments?
Overall I am very happy with this car.
The Taurus has always been very reliable, and has never left me anywhere.
The comfort of the car is great, and all of the controls are in reach.
This car has provided the cheapest miles I have ever driven.
