Positive Owner Reviews

It's very spacious, the seats are very comfortable. I know I will be safe in the case of an accident. It's surprisingly good on gas.
It has a V8 engine. It used to be a police car, we got it from a government auction. It runs very smooth and well.

My great Crown Victoria, with only 44, 000 miles on her. Best car I have owned,
It runs great, has really low mileage and is very comfortable. The only complaint I ever had was the air suspension. The shocks were old and rotted in spots, which made the compressor go on all the time, then it went out. They said I should switch to regular shocks, so we did and it is wonderful.

Beautiful vehicle with low miles and cold air conditioning
It has low miles. A smooth ride. Good on gas mileage. Gets me where I'm going.
accountCircle Linda G
Perfectly fine. This make or model is used by many police forces.
The car was purchased by my mother year 2000, ford, crown Victoria it ha75, 000 mileage, I now own the car, my mom passed. My mother told me the car will last as long as you take care of any problems which occur and it will run fine. You take care of it and it will take of you.

No comment. It gets me where I need to go.
It has been very reliable. But the handles have broken and sometimes it is hard to close the doors. The brakes squeak and we need new shocks. We have air and a radio. I really don't know what else to say about our car. Except so far it gets me to where I need to go.
accountCircle Alice B
That it has served me well for all the years I've had it.
No complaints here. Why do I have to have 50 characters?
accountCircle Charlene B
Brakes lock up if depressed too hard if your coming in fast. Give yourself a few car lengths for reaction time
Likes: Space, rear wheel drive, low miles, quality of the steel used, full frame. Dislikes: Older technology, has cassette and am/fm only, gas hog

Negative Owner Reviews

The handling is a little loose.
It is an old vehicle and it squeaks a bunch, just needs to be greased, not a bad vehicle for the age and mileage.
accountCircle Dave Smith
Reliable car but needs rear end safety kit installed.
My vehicle is reliable. There is a safety flaw with the rear axle and gas tank in a high speed rear end crash.For sells a plastic safety shield that goes around the rear axle to prevent a fire from a high speed rear crash.You or a shop needs to fill down the protruding tabs on the rear axle before installation.
accountCircle Susan C
Ridiculousness in modern design.
My biggest problem with automobiles in general is that failure is designed into the product. The endless extrapolation of needleless systems and over parting a design with needless parts that make a older car more costly to maintain to the point your frustration forces you to buy an even worse example of "proprietary engineering" that is only warranted for the systems designed to last beyond it is expiration.
accountCircle Keyon F
That it use a lot of gas and the AC gets real cold
This car has a very good engine but the upper and lower ball joints give me a lot of problems very clean just a older car.
accountCircle Jeanette M
Good comfortable family car.
It has been a very dependable car. Good gas mileage. Very comfortable to travel in. Replaced the heater core and just now have to replace the manifold and timing chain assembly. Lots of room. Also replaced the rear struts and coils. Haven't had any major issues with it.
accountCircle Niki R
That is not a very fast car and the transmission is next to the wheel.
Is a big model for me so i don't like that. I like that it has good a/c. I like that is a comfortable car.
accountCircle Lisa M
It might be an older car but it gets us where we need to go.
It has automatic windows and locks. The air conditioning blows called. It has an automatic transmission.
accountCircle suzy B
It's well built and a dang good running car
It's a good car and not given any problems, It's just getting old

This car has served me well, but it has reached a tipping point where the necessary repairs are greater than its worth
Reliable transportation, roomy, old, needs multiple repairs, time to make a move.
accountCircle mel N on February 2, 2021
It's a decent car and gets you from point A to point B.
I like it has a v8 engine in it. I like that it's red and has a nice ride. I dislike how many problems there has been.

It is very reliable. I haven't had any specific problems with mine. As long as you do the normal maintenance that every car needs, it should be fine.

I got one for 3000 used.. I think it was a good bargain for the condition of the car.. Restored some parts..

It costs around $500 used. It's very good value for a car that's almost brand new. And it was near luck that we were able to purchase it to begin with.
