1997 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car requires regular scheduled maintenance to run at it's best.
Continuing problem with small coolant leak.
Door ajar light has been checked twice, still stays on.
When braking get shake in steering wheel & accelerator.
General comments?
No major problems at this point.
I love the feel of this car on the road.
For a relativly small engine it has suprisingly consistent power. (3.8 V6)
Hard to beat for the money paid considering size and comfort.
Good mileage per gallon more kick.
