1995 Eagle Talon esi review from North America
"She's a Ferrari with out an ignition key"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ever since I have had this car there has been a occasional problem with the car stalling for short or long periods of time, whichever it decided. I've had to replace the radiator, entire timing gear and belt, four battery's, coil, door handle, window, computer, headliner, valve stem seals and driver seat!! Now I've mastered most quirks on this car except one major one, the stalling..
General comments?
This car had me at hello. All I want to do is drive her, but I can't without her dying in me at a red light or any where. I can't start the car back up unless the service engine light is on with the dash lights. I've figured out that I can tap the computer (I'll hear a click) and then the light is on and she will crank?? Nobody and trust me when I say many so called experts at all dealers I've asked have a clue!!
