1989 Ford Bronco II XL review from North America
"Great small SUV for off-roading"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not had any problems with the truck, other than routine maintenance - belts, brakes, tires etc.
Bought it new and had not 1 problem that has required it to be in the shop.
General comments?
I think that when people have problems with this little truck, are when they buy a used Bronco and it had been abused by a novice off-roader. If you understand the limits of the Bronco II then you will be in good shape (from my own experience the Bronco II has very little limitations for a stock truck).
Great vehicle, just watch the transmissions (stick and auto).
