1994 Ford Aspire review from North America
"It gets me where I need to go"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I absolutely cannot complain about the Ford Aspire. Thus far, I have no major problems with it. Currently, the muffler needs to be replaced.
General comments?
I've heard many opinions about the Ford Aspire and its unreliability, but it has been great transportation for me for a year. It sure beats riding the bus or walking at least.
I will agree that the acceleration is not the greatest. Cars pass me a dime a dozen, but eventually I either catch up to them or I don't. The important thing is that I get where I'm going. I have put several highway miles on it, but it hasn't failed me yet.
I've tried to trade this car in several times, but no one wants to give me much on it so I think it's worth keeping at this point until it falls apart. It will be excellent as a back-up car when I get a new car.
