1999 Mercury Tracer LS review from North America
"Excellent car for the money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing that has gone wrong with this car is that the tape deck quit working a couple of months ago. Other than that, the car has been trouble free.
General comments?
This has been the best car I've ever owned. I've had it for over three years and have put over 50,000 miles on it, and it has never let me down!
The car has surprisingly good pickup for a 110-hp, 4-cylinder engine.
It is suggested to replace the timing belt after 75,000 miles, but mine had 89,000 on it before I got it replaced. The old belt never broke, this was just maintenance.
