1996 Ford Windstar GL review from North America
"Good power, bad service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went at 80000 km and when we bought a new transmission, the Ford mechanics had dropped it and said that accidents will happen and pressured us to purchase a new one.
General comments?
Nice van, but Fords service needs help badly!
