1992 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer review from North America
"I can drive over those concrete tire stops in parking lots"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought it used.
The A/C compressor is going out.
The 4x4 doesn't work.
The back speaker is blown out (common problem, I'm told). And yesterday, the FM took a dive. Curiously, the AM works (and I hate talk radio. Figures!).
Really bumpy, uncomfortable ride. And now I fear for my life with the alledged roll-over risk. At least the tires have been replaced.
Interior is nice. Quiet now, too.
$25.00 a week for gas is no picnic, either.
General comments?
Wouldn't buy an SUV again.
