Yeah mine did too. The wheel also tilted in a strange way to the side. So you drove with one arm more extended then the other. Noticed other Escorts did the same.

Thinking back the car had worse faults.

Presumably it was part of Ford Europes plan to give the Japanese brands a leg up, by screwing up even the basics of their cars.

No real fond memories of that car. My TF Cortina with its whopping 2.0 litre four was in another universe as far as engineering and refinement, which in itself is kind of scary.

I still have memories of how awesome my Mazda derived KF Laser was to both of them!
