2003 Ford Taurus SES review from North America
"Comfortable, safe, and a good value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing that has really gone wrong with this car so far is the fan in the car. The A/C & heating work, but the fan the blows it into the cabin doesn't work anymore.
General comments?
For the price, this is a great car. Its very comfortable and roomy on the inside.
The car is powerful for what it is and can be fun to drive. Doesn't handle like a sports car, but it's not suppose to anyway.
My family has been driving this car pretty hard this year and have had no major problems come from it.
