1988 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
"One great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed a new transmission...
The low oil symbol flashes on the dash because of bad wiring...
The armrests on the doors are falling off and the up and down function on the passenger side power seat don't work.
General comments?
It is a great fast car with a lot of torque! It's very comfortable even though the seat doesn't move up far enough... It's fun to drive and very fun to peal out...
It's a big attention getter with the sound of the engine... the only problem is the steel rims with the steel hubcaps... they have got to go.
