  Thank God they are no longer built! - 1991 Ford Tempo
  By Claude Moore - September 18 - 2:00 am

  Rrom the get-go, the Ford Tempo was an American car companys attempt to take sales away from Honda, Toyota and Nissan, but not having good engineering or high quality/dependability in its product. Even now in late 2002 US car companies are still playing "catchup" with Honda and Toyota in virtually all their products at Ford, Gm and Chrysler- -when will we ever get it right?

  Tempo kicks a$$! - 1994 Ford Tempo
  By Neg_Pol - September 16 - 2:00 am

  My Tempo is the best cheap car Ive ever driven! Its comfortable, it looks nice (at least mine does), and it hardly ever breaks. It has bad pickup, but that can be fixed. And its great for new drivers cause for the very same reason.

  Great little car - 1994 Ford Tempo
  By Juggles - September 12 - 2:00 am

  I am a low milaeage driver in New York City. This is a great dependable car, that fits easily into parking spots. This car has never given me any trouble, have only had regular maintainence repairs.

  Dependability - 1994 Ford Tempo
  By annie - September 9 - 2:00 am

  I have owned 2 tempos and I have thought both were very good. I never had to worry if it was going to start in the winter. A little cramped, but what small car isnt.

  Get something better - 1990 Ford Tempo
  By Now I own a Honda! - September 3 - 2:00 am

  Its a throw away car. I got it cheap, had it for a year and a half, and then it fell apart. Only buy it if you can get it real cheap.

  Avoid this car at all cost! - 1992 Ford Tempo
  By chris schath - August 13 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car from my aunt for $500 dollars, it was in exceptional condition inside and out, and it was the worst purchase I ever made. The Tempo left me high and dry many a time with such repairs and replacements in its relatively short existence as Head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, the entire ignition system(Starter, sylenoid, battery) TWICE, water pump, radiator, fan(twice) thermostat(twice) temp sensor, brakes(3 times), The harmonic balancer(which requires the removal of the engine) TWICE,the lens on my turn signal fell off and I glued it back on, then I said "to hell with this" when the tranny started shimmying and sold it.:)

  I hate to write my expereince was good! - 1990 Ford Tempo
  By ebastage - June 5 - 2:00 am

  Ok My wife bought this car years ago and we have had it for about years now.. I cant destroy this car. I drive it like a rally car. I replaced a battery, two exhasusts. Tires ONCE. I bought a 2 piece CV boot for both sides because they tore. Did two brake jobs. Poor Rear break design with that stupid adjuster. a serpentine belt just for the heck of it. No big deal this is all regular maintenence stuff. Only reason I am getting rid of it is I have 2 kids and a dog now.. A Review on the 99 Plymouth Voyager is coming soon.

  Very nice car, thanx Ford! - 1990 Ford Tempo
  By betz698 - May 28 - 2:00 am

  A very nice car. My Tempo takes a licking and keeps ticking. It has minor problems, AC is out, Alternator problems, some rust but thats about it. I went airborne in this car due to a huge dip, in the road and destroyed the oil pan, got it replaced but there was no other damage, I couldnt believe it. The car is very durable, got sideswiped by a mustang, only minor paint sceapes and trim damage, no dents.I think my tempo still has a couple years left in it.
