2002 Ford Escort review from North America
"I recommend it for anyone of all ages"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The motor was hesitant between 45/50 miles per hour when the air conditioner was on or off. I took it to the dealer and they fixed the problem. Every once in a while the car will die, but I don't know what the cause of that is. I can't seem to find vent shades for the car. I've called everywhere and can't find them.
General comments?
It's a great car. I wanted a Mustang GT, but figured out I could not afford the insurance on them and I have a low paying job. We went to the dealer and my Dad and I were checking out the Mustangs and my Mom was looking at the ZX2 and I drove both the automatic and the manual and I just fell in love with the manual transmission. My hometown is about 500 miles from where I live now and it is great for long trips.
