1987 Ford Taurus Electrical system Problems

“Tfi module went out and cost me a lot of money and towing service and ruined my birthday party and I would like to get all my money back I paid the Ford dealership here in los banos where they took advantage be cause I was a women and they new all the time there was a bad tfi module recall they said the judge was out of their juridiction.”

“The wiring is overheating and is creating a foul smell in my car and the plug for the wire is melting. Worried that this failure will cause a fire in the drivers compartment. Problem starts when the heater blower is being used. Safeguard needs to be put in place to assure drivers that they will not go up in flames. I also own a 89 Ford Taurus station wagon and it has the same problem this needs to be corrected asap.”

“Cruise control would engage on its own & pick up speed. Foot not on accelerator pedal. Problem getting worse. Horn keeps blasting without being touched or hit. Does not happen all the time. Also, front end fell without warning. Vehicle was stopped at time. Had started to move forward when a blunk noise was heard. Has taken vehicle to dealer & parts were being ordered.”

“Engine stalling while driving and would not restart. Vehicle taken to dealer's shop, and problem has reoccurred. After several repairs, the consumer found out on internet the tfi module on Ford Taurus was on recall. The dealer had never told the consumer about the recall and the consumer wants reimbursement for expenses. The dealer service manager said the court judge had no right to recall these cars.”

“When coming to a stop vehicle shutsdown. Took vehicle to dealer. Consumer states vehicle is now having transmission problems, the fuel line injection system was replaced, various electrical componets including the ignition system and windshield wiper was replaced.”
