1994 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
"A baseline luxury car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission failure, slipped out of gear and would not shift.
Had to replace the idle air control valve, car would speed up to 35mph on it's own.
Rear deck brake lights are always going out.
Signal light bulbs always burn out.
Voltage goes up and down when the signal lights are on (replaced alternator, still don't know what's wrong).
Blown head gasket.
General comments?
Other than the mentioned problems, I do love this car!
