Car financing: the 1997 Eagle Vision

A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 1997 Eagle Vision for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Recalls and complaints

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 21 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, steering and engine and engine cooling. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The numbers in plain words

It is powered by the 3.3L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 11.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 35 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $18.29 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Space, size and seats

Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. EPA lists 481 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

When the Vision makes sense

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

A test week in the Vision tells you more than any review. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

What it costs to run

The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
