2001 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"Crap-tastic. wish I had 2 for target practice"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Main problem after $2,000 in misc, repairs the dealer should have covered is I changed the spark plugs. Now I know what I'm doing, worked on cars and trucks all my life... now after a simple plug change engine can`t run smoothly, like miss firing. Maybe a sensor? good lord someone sue ford for all they do to us... this car is a mess...
