1990 Ford Bronco Eddie Baurer review from North America
"Better off buying something else"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced the brakes about every 4 to 5 thousand miles. ($300.00) City driving is real hard on these broncos.
)
Replace starter 5 times. Needs excellent baterry with high cranking amps to start engine.
Replaced the fuel pump located in the gas tank 4 times. $ (400.00)
Brake lights work sometimes. Tail lights leak and have moss growing in them.
Replace back tailgate window. ($450.00)
Power locks have been replace. ($550.00)
Key to start car stuck in ignition twice because of faulty parts. ($490.00)
Replaced transmission. I used the bronco to tow a light boat. These broncos do not have transmission coolers on them and will overheat and break with not much usage. ($2300.00)
Had to repaint the whole truck due to fords bad paint and primer at manufacturing.
General comments?
Nice ride when all is working. But what a waste a money.
Very under powered and won't stop well.
