1994 Ford Mondeo LX Estate from UK and Ireland - Comments

15th Jun 1999, 12:32

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I've had the car for less than 2 years.

Three (!!) starter motors.

Gearbox seal leaked oil into clutch, so new seals and new clutch.

Radiator pipes corroded so overheated engine and new timing belt.

New battery needed.

Arm to wheel split meaning driving effectively on three wheels for a while.

Shock absorbers needed replacing.

Various exhaust bits and pieces.

HT leads needed replacing after recent misfiring.

Passenger seat needed refixed.

Rear wash wipe tube broken inside roof trim.

General comments?

Going by other comments we seem to have been very unlucky with this car which is a great pity as Mondeos are good to drive (especially with a working clutch and all 4 wheels attached to the car!). The road handling and cornering are fine.

I have had my Mondeo LX Estate for 13 weeks, it has been back to Quicks of Ashton 6 times. It has been in twice for a water leak in the passenger foot wells. I have just got it back after 10 days in Fords and it still leaks water in same place. What do I do next, it has spent more time in Fords than on my drive.

Come back Lada, all is forgiven.
