Never ever buy this car. It will bring you nothing but costly repairs.
You do know that you are talking about an entry-level Ford that is 10 years old and has over 100,000 miles on it, don't you?
Perhaps if it was a new car you could be so negative.
There are no LIFETIME WARANTIES on cheap automobiles you know.
You didn't have it inspected before the purchase, did you?
You're complaining about a car that you bought with 95,000 miles on the clock that had a few failures!
Truthfully, this is not that bad of a car. You just don't seem to realize that a 10-year old car is going to need some attention before it's running well again. That being said, I own a '95 Neon that has 83,617 miles on it and I bought it when it had 79,000 miles exactly. Even I have not had nearly as many repairs as this person has with their Escort. So that definitely says something...
