FORD TAURUS 2010 LIMITED (15127 MILES ON CLOCK) - DRIVING AT 30MPH THE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND ABOUT 5 SECONDS LATER THE CAR STALLED AND ALL POWER LOST. HAD TO COAST TO SIDE OF ROAD AND STEERING / BRAKES BECAME VERY HEAVY. THIS FAULT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NO WARNING AND TOTAL LOSS OF POWER. WHEN I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK, AND I WAS ABLE TO RE-START THE CAR AND CONTINUE MY JOURNEY WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. JUST FEEL VERY NERVOUS NOW AS THIS IS CLEARLY A FAULT THAT OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED AND I'M JUST THANKFUL IT ONLY HAPPENDED AT 30 MPH AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER SAFELY OTHERWISE IT COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *LN

THE REAR WINDOW HAS A SCREEN THAT WILL NOT STAY DOWN. WHEN BACKING UP IT STAYS 3/4 OF THE WAY UP OBSTRUCTING VISION OUT THE BACK WINDOW. IT IS EITHER ALL THE WAY UP OR 3/4 OF THE WAY UP AND CANNOT BE LOWERED OUT OF VIEW.. THIS SITUATION EXISTS WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED AND IN MOTION IN ALL TRAFFIC SITUATIONS.

THE RIGHT LOWER CONTROL ARM REAR BUSHING HAS WORN OUT. THE CAR HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT. I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD WEAR OUT WITH THAT FEW MILES ON IT.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH MY TAURUS FOR THREE YEARS BEGINNING WITH THE BAD BRAKE SYSTEM, LEAKING MOON ROOF, AND NOW THE TROTTAL SENSOR PERFORMANCE SYSTEM. THE BRAKE STARTED WITH CABLE NOT RELEASING WITH THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED CAUSING A RUBBING NOISE WHICH AVIS FORD STILL CLAIMING THEY CAN'T SEE OR HEAR ANYTHING, NEXT, THE ROOF LEAK AND REPLACING OF THE NOISY AIR CONDITION SYSTEM THAT WAS REPLACE AND STILL HAS SOME KNOCKING WHEN THE SYSTEM IS TURNED ON. THIRD THE CAR WAS REQUIRED BY THE DEALER TO GO THROUGH A COMPUTER UPGRADE WITH HAS CAUSE THE CAR TO HAVE PERFORMANCE ISSUES. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP TODAY FOR NOT EXECELLARATING. I WAS DRIVING ON SATURDAY WITH MY TWO GRANDCHILDREN UNDER 4 YEARS OLD AND MY CAR STOP WORKING, LEAVING ME STRANDED WITH THE CHILDREN. THE RPM LOST POWER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE, ALTHOUGH THE GEARS WERE WORKING. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A FORD OWNER, BUT WITH THE MULTIPLE ISSUES I HAVE HAD WITH MY TAURUS, MY DESIRE IS TO GO WITH ANOTHER COMPANY AND BID FORD FAREWELL FOREVER. EACH TIME I TAKE MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY CONTINUE TO TELL ME THAT THE ISSUES ARE NORMAL WEAR FOR THE 2010 TAURUS WITH THE MILEAGE OF 88000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR SINCE BEFORE 36000 MILES AND THE ISSUES KEEP ADDING. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCTS THEY DESIGN AND PUT ON THE ROAD. I HAVE SEEN OTHER TAURUS CAR THAT HAVE NOT HAD HALF THE ISSUES MY CAR HAS EXPERIENCED OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS. FORD NEEDS TO BUY MY CAR BACK AND REPLACE IT WITH A MORE RELIABLE VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT HAVE A MILLION ISSUES. MY CAR HAS REGULAR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AND STILL HAS ISSUE AFTER ISSUE, THAT AVIS WILL NOT RESUME THE RESPONSIBILITY TO JUST CREATING A BAD VEHICLE. THIS IS MY LAST FORD CAR, I WILL BY ELSEWHERE MOVING FORWARD. I AM A DISAPPOINTED FORD CUSTOMER, AND I AM NOT HAPPY WITH FORD SERVICE.
