1992 Ford Explorer review from North America
"Solid, Reliable, very good designed. High performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all really has gone wrong with the vehicle.
The air conditioner had a small leak, added freon and got hole plugged and is now fine.
The windshield wiper motor made noises for about a week then stopped and is now fine.
The Rust. This happens to every 1990-94 or 95 Explorer, just the way they were designed.
General comments?
Outstanding combination of engine and transmission.
The 4.0L has been magnificent, decent power, never failed, always very reliable.
I love this SUV so much. I cried when I got rid of it, it was so reliable and such a solid vehicle. I love the styling and design.
The 4x4 I never had a problem with, always worked very good.
The interior is nearly perfect yet, nothing wrong with the leather.
Thank you Ford for this, it was a lot of good solid car.
