1989 Ford Taurus Engine cooling Problems

“We have had this car repaired repeatedly for a lurching/jerking problem. Motor mounts replaced, new clutch, new transmission, new brakes, new tires, it is still doing this. If the engine is shut off, sometimes you can get the car to temporarily stop the jerking. We are again, taking it in for repairs. Have you any knowledge of this problem? It is a safety issue at this point. Thank you.”

“I got an emission test and a recall came up on the screen-cat-replacement bulletin#93e47 -recall. Is this to replace the cat.converters ? No one seems to know what this means , my car almost failed emission test so they say”

“Engine stalls repeatedy at any speed. The dealer said the mass airflow sensor was bad, which cost me $400 , but the engine repeatedly stalled when I left the dealership. I returned the car, but they refused to work on it due to a coolant leak (which was in the recovery resevoir not leaving the coolant low in the engine). They insisted that the computer diagnosis indicated the mass airflow sensor and that nothing else showed up. I have to drive this car to work and average about 5 stalls in a 24 mile round trip every day (any speed).”

“Ever since I've had this car it has beeb a money pit. I bought it an was not awre of all of the proplems this model was having. The motor mounts were replaced power steering pump was also replaced. The elcertical wiring harness caught fire while I was driving it. I am disabled and it could have given me a heart attack. I could not have pushed this car off the road. Now I am having trouble with the fuel injectors or their sensors no one has been abvle to fix this problem. It is currently at my mechanics garage for two months he has callled Ford with outtoo much help. …”

Consumer states that the webbing is good, however the seat belt does restrain consumer if the brakes have to be applied suddenly, consumer was informed that there was nothing wrong with the seat belts, consumer also stated the vehicle caught on fire, possibly engine related.8jb”
