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???
So let me get this straight, based on your review, I'm seeing that all of these problems happened at 50,000 miles, and you acquired the car at 51,000 miles. Sounds like you bought a used car that wasn't properly maintained.
The Tempo only had a 5 digit odometer. It may have displayed 50,000 miles, but most likely has rolled over. It probably had 150,000 miles.
