1993 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"A highly underrated car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The air conditioning works best at high speeds.
I have had a few minor problems (headlight burnt out, tire blew etc.) though all have been very inexpensive to fix.
When the rear light went out, the cruise stopped working. Good news: When I fixed the light the cruise worked again!
General comments?
Good pick-up!
This car has been performed amazingly.
I just drove the car all the way from Waterloo, Iowa, through Yellowstone, and eventually to Seattle. That's over 2000 miles! Now I drive it 50 miles to work and back round trip, haven't had a problem yet!
