1992 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission, due to the cause of leaky seals 3 times in a year and a half.
Oil pump.
Timing belt.
Exhaust system rusted.
Power locks froze.
Power windows stopped working, then when they did work it left the windows half open.
Original radio faded in and out, going very loud to off uncontrollably.
It was a hatchback and when it closed you could see daylight through the seal.
Lots of other things.
General comments?
The dealer said that after the first year of ownership when the transmission went out, that it wasn't covered under the bumper to bumper warranty. Many calls were made to Detroit to get service for the car. Eventually all was fixed.
There wasn't definitely not enough get up and go in that car, specially if the A/C was on. Very upset with that car. Good handling, nice compact car, great to drive, if only it had more horsepower.
Excellent on gas mileage, 30 miles/gallon.
My car could be considered a lemon.
