1990 Ford Thunderbird Base review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes were bad. Had to replace rotors
Rear brakes had a rattle. Rebuilt them
Had a coolant leak on top of engine. Turned out that coolant temp sensor was not tight.
General comments?
This is an amazingly comfortable car and handles extremely well in corners.
I love the look of this car. The lines are very nice and pleasing to look at.
