1999 Ford Taurus LX review from North America
"Not good, not horrible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Extremely jerky when I'm slowing down or changing gears. I can actually hear the engine complain.
The suspension isn't that great. It might be because it's worn down, or because it was built that way. I don't know. I can feel almost every bump on the road.
The windshield wipers go on randomly sometimes whenever I go over bumps/potholes.
General comments?
This car is a lot wider than the Asian imports, and it took me two broken side view mirrors to get used to it.
The interior is spacious and comfy, though. Good place to crash in.
