1995 Ford Fiesta Si review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power steering.
Exhaust went prematurely.
Timing belt.
Alternator.
Spark plug leads.
Fuel blockage.
Drivers door jammed open.
Alarm packed in.
Paintwork flakey.
Electrics intermittently fail (windows, wash wipe).
Brake discs needed replaced.
Leaky hoses.
Faulty (loose) interior trim.
Rattles from seats.
Front vents stopped working.
I am sure there is more... but
General comments?
A bloody disaster, if it's not one thing it's another. The service you get from a Ford dealer is the worst of any I have experienced, they are expensive, arrogant, sloppy and rude.
The good news is that at least they are consistent! I had a top of the range Scorpio a few years back and I got treated in the same way. I thought that QS 9000 was supposed to feed into the supply chain?
