1998 Ford Windstar GL review from North America
"We love this van!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with this van. I have many friends who own this same vehicle and likewise have had nothing go wrong. Great reliability. We have maintained it well and had no problems.
General comments?
This van handles well. It is very comfortable and has lots of room. My only complaint is that the engine is loud. We also found a knocking sound in the engine if we don't use mid-grade fuel during hot weather. Great acceleration and handling. Easy to put car seats in this van. Great air conditioning, with nice rear controls.
