 This car seems to go through front tires at an unbelievable rate.  The damn cup holders are junk, one broke and the other one is extremely hard to get up (cheap plastic interior).  The next problem was that its battery light would come on whenever I accelerated.  Then it died altogether.  Finally, every time that I would stop at a stop sign or stoplight, the car sounded like it was going to stall.  I wouldn't recommend a ford to anyone for any reason except to put it in a demo derby (hell, it may come out running better).
