1995 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
"Good looking car with a lot of problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace brakes, but that is normal.
Needs new transmission.
Had to replace catalytic converter (500 bucks, don't know why it was so high)
Had to do some serious rewiring because of a fire behind the dash (still having problems)
General comments?
This car is a great looking car from the outside, but has some major problems.
The interior is very comfortable, the only beef I have is why are the cupholders in a spot that you can't reach them?
For the most part, I have heard good things about thunderbirds, but maybe I just got a lemon because I have spent almost three thousand dollars in repairs and it still won't run right. I guess that's why they say fix or repair daily...
