I got this as my first car, and am
completely in love with it. It has 75K
on it, and the only fixing I had to do
was when I got into a fender bender( it
held up great)

By the time the car was five years old
with 63k miles, I had had the
transmission rebuilt, did the brakes
twice myself, replaced several
suspension components trying to fix
dangerous at the limit handling
characteristics, installed several new
electrical items including power window
motors and power seat switches, and
several mechanics were chasing a check
engine problem. All this and 22 mpg.
So, I traded it this weekend for a '02
Subaru. It handles, shifts, and stops
like a car should. No more Fords for
me.

when I get this car, it seems to be a
good deal... what a mistake,
transmission really bad, and nobody
can say what is wrong, and the brakes,
I have to change rotors every six
months, definitly never gonna buy a
Ford again.

Bought this car brand new in 1/2000. Have not had no problems with the engine or transmission like I had with my GM vehicles. Only problems I had were the wheel bearing cracked at 50000 miles nd had to be replaced. Had to replace the engine emission sensors twice. Recently, the brake light came on and stayed on even though the brakes worked fine. Had to get the brake pads and rotors replaced and now no more brake service light. This car gets good mileage and can't complain about the engine always starts in our cold MI winters.

Got the car from my father with over
100,000mi on it, and has been a great
performer. Had only one problem, a bad
rack-and-pinion. Other than that, great
all-around car, with a surprisingly
good-sounding stock speaker system.

Only 67,000 miles and know a broken
head gasket, freze plug corroded,
broken hood release, squeeking
steering column (sounds like a
bulldozer) If you see a FORD-RUN.
FOUND ON ROAD DEAD!!!

We bought this car new 4 years ago and
it currently has 80,600 miles on the
odometer. The car has been exceptional!
With the DOHC engine, it really moves
when you want it to. The lumbar seat
with leather are so comfortable on
trips.Gas mileage is acceptable at 28-
30 mpg. Only repairs we needed were to
have newbrake pads. The big drawback is
that the depreciation is extreme.

My '99 Taurus started it's life as a
half way decent car, but at about 6
months into ownership it was one
problem after another. It might not
be "Fix or Repaired Daily", but it has
been averaging repairs about every
other month. No other car I have owned
in the last 20 years, domestic or
foreign, has been as unreliable as
this clunker.
If you buy one, be prepared to have
the breaks replaced about 3 times or
more a year, along with some other
expensive surprises. JUNK!!!
