Hey guys. I'm new to the forum. Today I am picking up my very first Ford, which is a black 2010 Falcon FG XR6.
One thing I'd like to know if there is any common problems with these cars? I'm looking forward to picking up my new car. Took it for a test drive yesterday and it drives beautifully. Thanks guys! |

It has been rumoured that the most common problem with these vehicles is that they put a constant smile on your face. Oh well, something that you will just have to learn to live with!!

Hi Troy, welcome & congratulations on your new purchase. I own a 2009 FG XR6 & love it, this is also my first Ford I have ever owned. As for problems, I think every car can have it's own issue's, luck of the draw I guess. In saying that, if you do come across anything your not sure about then the forums is the perfect place to be. Lot's of knowledge on here mate, now just be prepared for the "MOD BUG" to hit & enjoy your new ride.

Cant go wrong with a FG XR6 they are pretty reliable cars as long as you look after it, it would do the same for you
