REVIEW : I m having a ford escort. I want to do the complete
wiring as i am in jamnagar gujarat, none of the guys touches my car. You
will have to open the ford station every where. I am happy to use your
car but because of your working station in rajkot and not in jamnagar so
I am suffering a lot. Plz advise me now my car can’t reach at
rajkot because of short circuit in wiring

REVIEW : My ford escort diesel 1.8 is excellent , i bought it
second hand and it is giving me good value for money ,i havent seen a
garage in the last 1 year and also i travel a lot and it gives good
mileage and just recently i had gone to mahad and the person sitting
next to me said after the drive that it felt like he was sitting in a
skoda , no vibrations no noise and the ac was also excellent.A
strudy car on the road compared to the santros , esteems , the boot
space is also huge.

REVIEW : I have a ford escort alpha petrol since 1999. Now there
are a problems of getting parts of this car in mumbai also. I am looking
for lower arm, but not available with all the dealers. But i got from
cst road kurla, so any one wants any car*s parts including ford escort
could get from there at very low prize.

REVIEW : My car is somewhat 300 Km away from dealer service
station. For change of very small part, dealer ask me to bring your car
at our service station, for that I have to spend lot of money. I my self
is a good engineer I like your car but I am frustrated with you dealer
policy matter.

REVIEW : I got my silver ford Escort (flair) on 3rd april. I
have driven 4000 Km till now. The driving experience is quiet good.It is
very comfortable car.But very expensive.It has given average 9kml in
city & 12kml on highways.There is no other problem with the car.If "fuel
economy" does'nt matter for you,go for it & enjoy mini josh
machine.

REVIEW : I have a ford 1.8 diesel. It was a pleasure untill
45,000 KM. After that it is a drain on you- a white elephant.The AC
gives trouble soon. A driving pleasure but I will never go again for
this car...my friends who had it for more than three years also say that
they will never go for it again. Ford India should do something to
reduce the maintenance cost.

REVIEW : Ford as a car has the bad and good points but let me
share my experience. I have a 2000 1.3 CLXI model. The car suddenly
started giving problem with the valves where the push rods started
jumping off, stalling the car.The heads had to be decarbonised. The ford
workshops are pathetic most of the places and very difficult to get
spares even if you want it to be serviced from someone outside.

REVIEW : I have a Ford Escort 1.6 ZXI. The car is good but I had
to put nagwheels and wider tyres to compensate the braking issues Ford
Escort is born with you.The spares are very expensive and you get spares
only through the dealer and the dealer UTILISES you to the MAXIMUM.If
you are in Bangalore,I will NEVER EVER recommend you to buy Ford as the
ONLY 2 dealers in Bangalore SUCK,they are absolutely pathetic ,they ROB
and CHEAT their customers(service Section). The service guys are so bad
and unproffesional,I would be much more confident to give my car to a
local autorikshaw mechanic. They have no mercy on your car and they
treat your car like their enemy and CHEAT with all their wicked skills
and they take days to resolve any technical issue.I drive all across
south India and been to other dealers as well,but there is no place like
Bangalore ,both Metro Ford and Cauvery Cheat and ROB you to the Maximum.

REVIEW : I own a Ford Escort 1.8D..One of the worst cars in its
class..My car is just 9mths old & it has been more then 20 times to
the Ford service station & each time it has been with them for more
then 2 to 3 days & Ford seems to do ntn about it..Ford might change
the part but be ready as the replaced part never lasts for more then a
mth.. A very BAD buy, i strongly recommend not to buy this car...
I do feel safe inside the car too.

REVIEW : I bought this car in 2000.Everything is fine abt my
Escort except the mileage which is hardly 8 Kms in city without A/C.Also
the power windows are always faulty.The dealer Cauvery Ford is not only
bad but its the worst I have ever seen.People cheat a lot here.Over all
the car is good as far as stability and looks are concerned,the A/C is
powerful,the pickup is excellent.

REVIEW : The car is overall a good package but i found following
draw backs
1. the body of car is not strong enough. in fact it could dent by stong
hand pressure.
2. problem of servicing persisting as one does not find service centres
in medium cities.
the car runs fine. it is returning with 18 KM on high way (80-110
speed) and 10-11 KM in city with AC ON. the pick up is pathetic with AC
on at low speeds but picks up after 60 KPH, then their is no stopping. i
drove it upto 155 KPH and their was no vibration and noise.
recommended but seems ford is not at all enthusiastic after fiesta
introduction.
