1995 Ford Windstar LX review from North America
"A great family vehicle with outstanding performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Usual problematic interior lights and door contacts.
Water pump failed, the second was installed incorrectly by the service department, this caused problems with the serpentine belt.
Idler pulley installed backwards, causing another problem with the serpentine belt.
General comments?
This van has always been comfortable and my opinion is that the van does not owe me a cent. It went 380 thousand before a major problem occurred with the heads causing me to sell.
All other items such as suspension maintenance issues were because of high mileage.
The mileage is a testament to its reliability.
