Electrical and ignition problems within four hours of getting the car home. Problems eventually traced to moisture in fuse boxes.
New transmission at 53000 miles.
New radiator at 56000 miles.
Booked in for exploration of ignition problems. Engine cuts out when hot.
Oil leaks, coolant leaks.
Overall a very unreliable "Friday afternoon" special. In the two years we've owned this car the warranty repairs probably total £4000.
However, when she's running she's smooth, handles really well and is very spacious and comfortable.
If we hadn't bought the three year warranty, though, she would have bankrupted us.
Possibly this is a review of a Ford Scorpio rather than a Mondeo due to engine fitted and Trim spec "Ultima"?
I have had the Mondeo 7 months I payed for new tyers and a caterlic filer the fter cost me £35 from scrap yard. it jutterd before it blow and ow the car drives like a dream I would never get ride of the car. feel so safe and I know she has a nice long life. But please don't bang ur bumper as they crack to easy. as I have found and een told. just remember if you have a mondeo ou are going to be happy with it if its the ultima.
