1991 Ford Taurus GL review from North America
"I'm very disappointed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First, I couldn't keep the steering wheel aligned. I had it aligned when I first bought it, got 4 new tires. Then 4 or 5 months later, it was misaligned again, with new parts needed underneath--new drive shaft, CV boot--$500 of work. Then 4 or 5 months later--same thing. This time, 2 new tires and a new end rod--$400 of work.
Now, ten days after I dumped the last $400, the transmission is down. Needs total overhaul--$1100 of work.
General comments?
I bought the car at 30000 miles. I realize that the car was 14 years old, but I thought the low miles would make it a better deal. I was wrong. I paid $2000 for it, and it has needed another $2000 of repairs in less than a year! I wouldn't drive another one of their cars if they gave it to me for free.
