The worst car I ever owned was an 87 Escort. First of all, it had those automatic shoulder belt things that were noisy and just annoying. Not to mention that they were completely useless without the lap belt, which you had to buckile yourself. And the tach needle (a tach on an Escort? honestly) jumped around like it wasn't on properly or not.
But the worst car I ever drove was a mid 80's Ford EXP I drove while I was looking for my first car (see above). I don't know about how the other EXPs drove, but this thing was totally screwed up. It had a solid paint job and looked relatively sporty for a 16 year old (I was a Chevy man even then, but I'd just wrecked my dad's truck and he needed something to drive to work pretty quick). The dash was hacked and had a supersized Dodge stereo somehow mounted in it, but the engine and suspension were HORRIBLE. This thing rattled, the steering wheel shook, it took 45 minutes to get up to speed, and it smoked like a chimney. After my dad and I got back to the lot we just kind of threw the keys at the salesman and tore out of there.
