FORD ESCORT "ZX2" - 2002 -

CAR RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT. RESPONSIVE WITH POWER. GOOD ECONOMICAL 4 CYL ENGINE. AUTOMATIC. GOOD TRANSMISSION AND DRIVETRAIN. SUPER COLD AC; NO FREON LEAKS. TIRES ABOUT 80%. BRAKES GOOD. NEW BATTERY, NEW FUEL FILTER. CAR DOES NOT LEAK ANY FLUIDS TO THE GROUND. CLEAN INTERIOR WITH DECENT LOOKING CLOTH SEATS. NON SMOKER. 145K MILES. BODY & PAINT IS IN GOOD SHAPE, NO RUST OR FADING PAINT. THERE ARE A FEW SCRATCHES THAT HAVE BEEN TOUCHED UP. ALSO THERE ARE A FEW DENTS ON THE DOOR PANELS. OTHERWISE GOOD BODY.

I'VE HAD THIS CAR FOR THE PAST 3 YRS. THE CAR DRIVES GOOD. RECENTLY, I HAD AN ISSUE WHERE IT WOULD TURN OFF WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP OCCASIONALLY, BUT ALWAYS STARTS RIGHT BACK UP. I TOOK IT TO GOODYEAR MECHANIC CENTER WHERE THEY ATTEMPTED TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE (RECEIPTS AVAIL), AND RECOMMENDED A FUEL FILTER CHANGE AS WELL AS THROTTLE BODY CLEANED, WHICH I DID. UNFORTUNATELY, THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO DO THIS. WHEN I TOOK IT BACK THE 2ND TIME THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT UNTIL THIS HAPPENED MORE FREQUENTLY. THERE IS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BUT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS ISSUE AND SOMETHING ABOUT ENGINE TIMING, SPITTING OUT JUST 1 CODE (I'VE HAD THIS LIGHT ON FOR THE DURATION OF OWNING THIS CAR AND HAS NOT BEEN AN ISSUE).

I ENDED UP GETTING A NEW CAR BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT TO CHASE A GHOST. THIS CAR IS A GREAT CAR, AND WILL MAKE SOMEONE HAPPY IF THEY KNOW HOW TO WORK ON THEM. THIS ISSUE MIGHT BE AN IDLE VALVE; WOULD BE MY SECOND GUESS. I JUST DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO DEAL WITH IT SINCE IT'S INTERMITTENT AND THE MECHANIC DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS EITHER.

CAR IS BEING SOLD AS IS, NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. FEEL FREE TO COME BY APPT AND SEE IT.

THANKS FOR VIEWING. FOR ALL FEATURES SEE ABOVE.

Timing belt and tuneup done at 120k miles.

Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
