  Lots of room, but electrical problems - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By ebutterfly - April 10 - 12:10 pm

  This car has lots of room and great to have with 2 kids. The problems that we have had though is that they have already had to replace the radio. It would just go out and have no sound with it. Now we are having problems with the windows not working. I dont know if we just got a lemon or if this is a manufacturing problem. If the windows are working, I love this car.

  This car is the best combination of room, comfort, features and economy in the marketplace. More after 20,000 miles or so.

  Havent had any significant problems - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By moonview1 - January 12 - 3:46 am

  Bought this car new in 06. Had an issue with the brakes from sitting on lot. Dealer took care of this, and also preempted later recall. An alignment issue used up rear tires by 15,000 miles . I was not happy with the dealers response which was basically an offer to sell me 4 tires and an alignment. Bought tires and alignment elsewhere. Other than that, this car has been a champ. Have 70,000+ with no problems. The only thing I have done is to change the oil religiously, and I put new brakes on rear. Sent in last payment this month, so I guess Ill put in some plugs, change the belt, and flush the coolant. Great car.

  Absolutely a Great Car - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By Tom - December 19 - 10:36 pm

  We bought this car to replace my wifes Grand Marquis, so we were used to large cars. The interior and trunk room in this car will make you rethink big. The is equipped with all options (not ordered, just the way it came) and we have found that they are mostly very useful. Adjustable gas and brake pedals are great for short drivers, they get you back some from the airbag. This car rides very smooth and responds very well to steering input. Brakes are firm and positive (and ABS). Safety (#1 pick by IIHS) was the single most important selling point for me. With the Safety Canopy and the addition of side mounted airbags, this is one of the safest cars you can own.

  Fantastic Ford Five Hundred - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By wildgoose - November 28 - 8:10 am

  Ford has finally built an European auto, but at $10-15,000 less. I average 27 mpg on rolling hilly highways. Makes ice and snow covered roads feel like dry pavement. Plenty of room in cabin and trunk. Comfort and convenience combine with hi-tech controls and transmission for a fun-to-drive automobile. It doesnt just pretend to be of European quality. It challenges European quality. I still find it hard to believe that I got so much car for such a low price.

  Great car for the money - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By Mark - July 16 - 12:03 pm

  I just bought this car and was very surprised at the deal I got 12600 sel awd and only 17k. This was a no brainer. I just do not know why there are so many of them out there for such a great price. I love the features.

  Love it - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By Bill Kooser - April 23 - 5:20 pm

  Enjoy fitting in drivers seat. At 64"+ I can still wear my hat. Great road visibility. Great to sit high - makes for easier in and out. With drivers seat back, there is still room in the back for long legs.

  enjoying the road again - 2006 Ford Five Hundred
  By a.a. - April 14 - 7:13 am

  I was attracted to the 500 by its semi-luxury euro exterior which appears deceptively mid-size but open the doors and trunk lid...WOW! After purchasing, I read about its low horsepower being its weak point. City driving does have a full-size feel but on the highway this puppy gets up and Ive never felt it strain, so I attribute both inclinations to its CVT...either way, I enjoy driving again.
