2011 Ford Taurus Other or unknown Problems

“I've had this car for 2 months already. I pulled out of my house, drove thru my street and when I came to a stop in a intersection my car stopped completely and the wheel became hard and was not able to turn it or press on the gas pedal. The engine light, electronic stability control active light and battery alert light came on at the same time. Also it alerted me I was low on gas witch I had half a tank of gas.”

“My trunk leaked once in 2017 soaking legal paperwork. Found source of leak through faulty gaskets, used silicone and performed my own water test with hose. Front left headlight leaked through rubber gasket. I have had to pay out of pocket to fix my car and reported all this to Ford but was told there are no recalls and safe my receipts.

“My 2001 Taurus ses during cold and/or snowy/rainy months doors freeze up constantly. Very difficult to get into car. When I finally manage to get in I have to drive holding onto the door because it will not reshut as the door handle assembly becomes lodged and door will not latch. I have inspected the rubber around door and it looks fine. But I do go treat it every cold season in hopes the door will not re-freeze but I have been unsuccessful as it still is happening. Finally after car has been heating up for about 45 min. …”

“Was driving at 65 MPH on highway when I tried to accelerate nothing happened and I noticed all dash lights were on. I coasted to shoulder, shifted to park and pushed ignition button and it restarted. This has happened 5 other times and luckily there was a shoulder available, but the holman Ford dealership, (who is the only one who has ever serviced the car), says they have no idea what the problem is. It was a very dangerous situation and I noticed GM had similar problem and recalled autos due to death!! I have been lucky but now fear this car, after 5 times. It is not a stall. …”
