1989 Ford Bronco II Eddie Bauer review from North America
"A well-built, well-designed, wonderful car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator went out at 100,000 miles.
Rear exhaust has rusted out a few times
due to periods of intermittent driving.
Heater fan went out at 120,000 miles.
Front bushings wear out about every 40-60,000 miles.
Oil pump replaced at 140,000 miles.
General comments?
This car is my pride and joy and I would not trade it or sell it.
It handles great, still looks brand new,
and has never left me stranded anywhere- when something does go wrong, I'm either pulling into or out of the driveway. Must be cosmic.
The new Escapes are just not the same.
