1993 Ford Escort LXE Wagon review from North America
"Excellent cheap transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Coolant level light came on - Hmmm, cleaned the contacts.
Some light surface rust (It's Ohio.. Lucky it's not rotted away)
Radiator fan relay stopped working... - Hard wired it to the ignition so it kicks on.
The rear hatch shocks are starting to not hold it up.
General comments?
So far with the miles it has on it.. I am not unhappy with the vehicle. Purchased it cheap, and it is actually a quiet car. Runs much better than most 16 year old cars.
