1997 Ford Mondeo ST24 review from UK and Ireland
"Wouldn't buy another as I was badly let down by Ford's service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After my 80K service, the fuel consumption immediately got worse - from 380-400 miles per tankful to somewhere around 320. Also within days my speedo and fuel gauge started cutting out intermittently. The garage denied both had anything to do with them, but after I found they had fitted a tyre on the wrong way I'm not sure I believe them! (Polar Ford - Stevenage UK). 3000 miles later and several visits to Ford dealers and the problem with my dials STILL cannot be found!!! Most annoying - for me and my wallet!!!
General comments?
Poor Ford dealer had a lack of interest in a problem seemingly caused by them in 1st place.
