1998 Ford Windstar review from North America
"One van that should of took it's time coming off the assembly line"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil pan, lights stay on, transmission kicks hard and gets rough around 50mph drivers side window acts up, goes down, but not up drivers side locks won't work switch for bright lights cuts the headlights out instead of changing them, cleaning the contacts on all the doors fixed the dinging and dome lights staying on problem, but the rest is up in the air about what is causing the problems, at 100 dollars a pop to hook it up to a computer to tell me what I already know is wrong is indispicable.
