1994 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"A car perfect for college students who are on a budget"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Constant Velocity Joints needed to be replaced since I first bought in August, but it is still dependable.
Fuel filter needed to be replaced.
A bit shaky if you don't keep up with the tire maintenance.
General comments?
I have had no problems with acceleration.
I love the quiet idling.
A lot of room which is perfect for college students moving to and from their dorms, like me!
Keeps a good top speed of 120 miles per hour, not that I do that often.
Easy to fix.
