1990 Ford Thunderbird std review from North America
"Has everything combined to make a wonderful car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My engine blew up at 123000 miles.
I broke the rear axle at 132000 miles.
The front passenger ball joint was replaced at 134000 miles.
Currently I am needing to fix the oil pan at 143000 miles.
General comments?
I love this car even though it seems like lots of things have gone wrong with it. This is mainly because of the abuse that it takes from my driving.
