2002 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
"Piece of expensive useless crap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
PIECE OF...
The car is a horrible gas-guzzling monster. I never seen anything like it.
The tires and brakes got worn out after only about 10000 km and I got them fixed.
The drivers door squicks badly when opened.
Engine makes noise when starting the car.
Transmission got broken and needed fixing. Fixed under warranty.
Some hose got torn. Replaced as well at 50$
The fuel pump didn't function right. Got fixed under warranty.
Paint starting to wear off.
General comments?
The car is slow at accelarating.
It's horrible especially at stop lights when you need to accelerate.
On the highway, you can't notice all the 290 HP it has, feels more like 140...
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this car to anyone in their right mind.
