1995 Ford Probe SE from North America - Comments

"I owned a 89 probe and got rid of it to buy the 95 probe, but I now wish I would have kept the 89"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The paint started to crack and spider all over the place.

I had a major,$400 worth, electrical problem 3 months after my warranty expired.

My torque converter failed after 40,000 miles and my entire transmission failed after 85,000 miles.

The moon roof has leaked for the past 50,000 miles.

I can't open my moon roof because I had to tape it closed with electrical tape to stop the leaks.

The cylinders that hold open the hatchback lid failed after 40,000 miles.

The driver side controls for the power windows broke.

The weather stripping along the doors doesn't work anymore and now I can hear every noise outside of my car.

My seat belt doesn't close properly all of the time.

General comments?

I've taken care of my car, but it hasn't taken care of me.

I wash it every 2 weeks and get the oil changed every 3,000 miles.

I've followed the owner's manual to a tee regarding service and upkeep. Every service listed for my car has been done within 50 miles of the recommended time as stated by the owner's manual.

I have to agree. I had a 95 Ford Probe SE and it did the same things that happened to his car. I have a 96 GT now and very happy with it! I think the faster Probes are better quality and better built.
