1992 Ford Tempo review from North America
"Junk, haul it off at 50,000 miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My head gasket blew at 50,000 miles. Replaced the head.
Water pump died at 50,000 miles replaced.
Heater core popped at 50,000 miles. Bypassed/froze
A/C quit a long time ago.
Paint is in the process of disappearing. Turning silver.
Power windows quit at 50,400 miles.
Power locks quit and locked me out.
Now the Killer. The harmonic balancer. This is irreplaceable to the shade tree mechanic.
SHAME ON YOU FORD! For making CRAP LIKE THIS. I will never buy another Ford again. Hello? Can you say lemon???
