2000 Ford Windstar LX review from North America
"Really, it's been a lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Left us stranded on side of road at 88000 miles. Paid $2000 for a new transmission.
Numerous problems with engine light, emission problems, ball joints.
Constantly replacing brakes and pads.
General comments?
One problem after another. The ride is smooth but is not worth the hassle of repairs.
It would've been worth it to pay the extra for a Honda or Toyota van in the beginning.
