1995 Ford Windstar LX review from North America
"Soccer moms beware, you could get stranded"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced transmission at 136,000 miles.
Check engine light comes on periodically.
I am now getting a mere 11 MPG.
General comments?
This van symbolizes Fixed On Repair Day.
I am dumping this thing asap.
It really is a nice vehicle, but the mechanical aspect is awful.
It is all, but impossible to change the spark plugs on the back side.
The good ol USA needs to review their car builders and make Ford get off of their keesters and fix these things.
Henry Ford would roll over in his grave if he knew the problems with his cars.
