Ford Galaxy reviews
Total 20 Ford Galaxy owner reviews
Pros: Abnormally spacious, comfortable, dynamic, well illuminates the road at night, the headlights turn with steering, illuminating the inside of the bend.
Cons: 1. The Blaupunkt audio / navigation system is defective in 90% of cases and drains the car battery 24 hours a day, even when the car is switched off. In this regard, factory recalls and racks have been replaced by a simpler Sony unit.
2. Problems with dripping turbines. The oil drips onto the exhaust manifold, instantly evaporates and fills the cabin with unbearable smoke. (I haven't eliminated it yet)
