1993 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fan blower was making a noise, which we had replaced under warranty.
Air pump locked up at 140,000 miles and had replaced.
Headlights would go off due to a relay and Ford reimbursed us $600.00 for repairs we made.
The transmission has always been a little jumpy between 3rd and 4th. But at 430K miles it's still the original, never rebuilt.
General comments?
This car has been a great car. I think some people will nit pick anything.
We have run synthetic oil since 1500 miles and the engine is still original and never rebuilt.
I just wrecked the car and the insurance wants to total it because of the high miles. My mechanic wants the car and is buying it, so this must say something for the shape.
I'm looking at a 94 model, and yes only a V8!
Overall this has been a best buy for us!
