1991 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"Economical Escort"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The belt tensioner keeps breaking since I installed a k&n filter.
The coolant sensor is bad so the check coolant light is on.
General comments?
The car isn't too bad to drive.
The car isn't tiny, but yet gets great gas mileage.
If you're in the market for a used car in any price range consider an escort.
