1995 Ford Escort consumer reviews

I'm the second owner of this car it's rusted out sadly it runs great has 340k miles on it n I Cruise daily in it. If you find one for cheap buy it please. Just remember that the timing belt breaks often and it won't hurt your escort just change it n keep rolling

This car had 100000 miles on it when I purchased it and I never had to put any money into it. I bought it for an extra car and it was great!

Very dependable low mileage vehicle at a great price would recommend them to all my friends and family . Not pushy at all, gave us time to make our own decision

The car has met all my needs and I?m glad I bought it in the first place. I have never had a problem with the car.

I bought my 95 LX 5speed in 2016 as my first car I paid $2,000 and it only has 84,000 miles and just hit my 100k yesterday. I get amazing gas milage and it was well taking care of I have put a new radiator, slave &brake cylinder, battery, plugs & wires and a power steering pump but the lady i bought it from hadn't done anything to it. The plugs where original when I changed them. It rides really well but after riding in a new car it does sound louder which I don't mind. It's been so reliable and never let me down. It's outlived my husbands 98' ranger and 98' cherokee. As well as an 01' mustang. And the heat and air kicks in and works soo much quicker than my moms 17'dart or my husbands 18' versa. It's also gets blowed around far less on the freeway then his versa. It's a car I hope to teach my children to drive straight shift on because I'm sure it'll be around till then.

This car has and still the best car i have ever owned she has never let me down. Has lots of room in the back i have hauled furniture ,used tires i have had this car full of stuff even on the top of the roof .She has made me so much money in the 12 years ive owned her plus taking my family where ever they needed to go.

Bought car new in Feb 95. Currently have 467,000 miles. Great gas mileage. Still average about between 30-38 miles per gallon. Front and rear bumper damaged but still runs.

I have never had any problem with my escort. Only the brakes,tires, muffler & wiper blades have been replaced since it was new! I can honestly I expect it to last for several more years. Lots of room in trunk. I can't believe it's 16 years old & runs like new!!! I have had several people try to buy it but it's not for sale. great gas milage.

It wasn't surprising to learn the writer associated with this review, who compared the Escort with a Toyota and Hyundai, ranked the Escort as his choice. He correctly identified all of the admirable features, including the comfort factor during long distance drives. The ride is impressive for an economy car, particularly if you replace struts and springs every 70,000. The humble Ford Escort is listed amoung the "best used cars" in my 2004 buying guide, alongside Acura, Lexus, Honda, and Toyotas. I remain unsure why the 1995/1996 received dings for cooling, electrical and brakes categories since I haven't had any issues. I am the second owner of this LX hatchback purchased in 2001 and have enjoyed 10 years of reliable transportation during 100,000 miles. Total mileage is now 169,000 with the only minor annoyance (quirky idle) surfacing when it was 10 years old with about 100,000 miles. This car has benefitted from exceptional maintenance, such as regular fluid changes (brake, PS, coolant, trans) and other preventative care. The automatic transmission, exhaust system and AC have never required servicing and the paint job has less orange peel than many newer (and costlier) cars. There have never been any annoying squeaks or rattles and owners benefits from maintence which can be performed by those with mechanical aptitude. Most recent repairs were fan blade motor replacement and coil pack. During the past 10 years I have kept detailed records of every expenditure related to owning this vehicle (fuel, maintenance, repairs, insurance, registration) and the total cost per mile is 22 cents - which includes the original vehicle cost factored in. The final cost of ownership becomes 19 to 20 cents per mile if I sold the car tomorrow, but I intend to keep this handy hatchback around for another 10 years.

Great car it is an amazing car and it is very reliable and i would reccomend this car to anyone !!!!
