1998 Ford Escort SE review from North America
"A great wagon for a little price!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing too major has happened with the car in the time that I have owned it. I had to replace the air filter and get the brakes checked, but other than that, there has been no maintenance needed on the car.
It is a reliable wagon that is quite good on gas consumption.
The seats are a bit uncomfortable, but this may be because of preference.
General comments?
This Ford Escort SE Wagon has been a very good choice for me. I needed the wagon aspect for my work. It's a great little car that can haul a lot of cargo. Even when the car is full of stuff, the gas mileage is still great!
