1999 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission rebuilt at 180 miles (We only had it 3 days!!!) Dealer bumped the car with another and scratched the rear bumper while fixing the trans. Used touch up paint that didn't match to fix it. Did put 60 miles on the car before they gave it back. Almost as many as we did.
General comments?
This is the second Mustang I have owned and, although I like the styling and performance, Ford quality seems to be lacking. After four years the drivers door on my 1988 Mustang fell off the car!!! I had to have the hinges welded back on!! This type of thing should never happen. Mechanical failures are one thing but body parts falling off after 4 years or transmissions needing a service after 3 days is NOT QUALITY JOB ONE!!!
