2000 Ford Escort SE review from North America
"It's a great slow nightmare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 35000 Miles had cruise control installed, two weeks later, the cruise stopped working, got it fixed under warranty. two months after that the cruise went out again some part fixed under warranty. Then about 8 months ago the cruise stopped working, paid $450 for a part to be replaced again. The cruise isn't working right to this day.
General comments?
This car is great if you don't get cruise control installed on it.
Otherwise this is a great car, but the acceleration is very poor, there isn't enough zip to get where I want to go.
