1992 Mercury Tracer review from North America
"Economical and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission died at 150,000.
General comments?
We've had two Tracers now and these things are little Energizer bunnies. I beat on my cars, but my Tracer went everywhere and didn't complain.
No, it isn't a fast or high-performance car, but the gas mileage is great and it's extremely reliable.
I probably would have gotten my last Tracer well past 200K if someone hadn't rear-ended it...
