Question Is '99 a bad year?????

I have noticed that there are a lot of problems on this forum with '99s, is this true, or am I just paranoid?

It's just one of those things. If you had dropped in another time, it might have been the '94s that were acting up.

No need to fret.

It seems like all years/engines/trannies, etc have there own issues and then some groups of years have common problems. Like Rockledge said, you just happened to see a lot threads on the 99.

99's rule

I have 187,375 miles on my 99 3.0v and the only trouble I've had was some corrosion on a sensor.......and the corrosion got sucked through the whole EGR system......but that's $75 in repairs over 187,000 miles......I think that's more than reasonable.
