1987 Ford Tempo Sport review from North America
"A good car to drive it it is raining so you don't get your other car dirty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine & 5speed transmission are good. Excellent gas mileage 28 street 34 fwy.
General comments?
Windows do not stay up. Doors need to be slamed to close. Stereo sucks, better to keep it off. Air conditioning cold, but the blower fan will not put out a match. Wipers are extremly loud, wiper washer resevoir leaks, bought a used one and it also leaked, so did the third and fourth, gave up and used a milk carton. Five people fit uncomfortable, but so does one. The trunk space is okay, but after 50 pounds the rear of car is almost to the groung while the front of the car is way up in the air.
