general problems of the 1999 Ford Taurus

I would say 7 times out of 10 while driving in my car the driver side seat belt randomly pops unbuckled or if I reach for something it unbuckles. It is a little scary to be honest. Sometimes when I break the slightest pressure cause it to fail.

The contact owns a 1999 Ford Taurus. The contact stated that the rear row seat belts on the passenger and driver side failed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 132,000.

Passenger seatbelt will not retract out of holder to be put on passenger. Drivers seatbelt staying out, not retracting back in as to work properly.

I have a 1999 Ford Taurus. The front seat passenger seat belt has recently locked and is unfunctional. I looked up on your recall list to search and found that there was a recall id 99v250000. I contacted Ford motor company at the number you provided 1-800-392-3573. I was told that your site generalizes makes and models and that my car was not part of the recall. They opened a case under #401980970 ; however, said they would not fix my car.

The front passenger seatbelt, 2nd seat seatbelts have not retracked properly since purchase of our used Ford Taurus wagon. Back seat belts also twist themselves and are constant problems. I have grandchildren that need to be restrained and this causes big problems. Since this appears to be a continuous problem and complaint why hasn't a recall been issued before a death or serious injury has occurred?? according to my old insurance site-there was a recall issued for the seatbelt problem but the Ford site doesn't list it under my VIN #.

I have a 1999 Ford Taurus station wagon. In 2003 the rleft rear seat belt would sometimes get stuck and not retract. I would have to feed the belt back into the mechanism in order for the belt to finally work. After doing this for some time, I took the car to my local Ford dealer in December, 2003 and paid to have the seat belt assembly replaced. In 2006, I again had the same problem with the left and right rear seat belts and the left front seat belt. I again took the car to the Ford dealer in December 2006 and had all three of the seat belt assemblies replaced. At the time I asked the person at the dealer if there was a recall or anything on the seat belts since this was the second time in 3 years that I had the problem. They pretty much ignored my question. Now I found out that there was a recall on seat belt mechanisms and owners were notified beginning in 1999. We did not purchase this vehicle until 2001.

In a 1999 Ford Taurus se, my 6 year old son became trapped in a seat belt that was not even buckled. After arriving home at 9 p. M. My son had just unbuckled his seat belt when somehow he pulled the seat belt over him and the seat belt wrapped around him and it was around his waist and back. The seat belt just kept getting tighter on him and would not release just like a cowboys lasoe. Any slack I could get was going up in the shoulder restaint. The belt would not give me any slack. This was in the rear seat on the drivers side. After it got so tight that my son was crying in pain and panic, I finally had to cut the seat belt to free my son. My complaint is that this should have never happened. Why is there no slack given on the seat belt especially in a parked car. The belt should not keep locking and taking up slack. This is an unseen danger lurking that could entrap a child. The belt will entrap a child without being secured in the buckle. Beware!!.

We had purchased are 1999 Ford Taurus wagon used in 2002. When we bought it we started noticing things going wrong. So we told the place that we bought it from. They did not want to do anything. When we called the local for dealership they told us there were know recalls ever on that year. When I did a search on your site I noticed five recalls on that year. One of my worst complaints is that none of the seat belts work. My children life are in danger everytime I have to put them in the vehicle. How can I get the dealership to fix this.

When driving passenger's side seat belts locked up. The more consumer moved the tighter they got.

Vehicle came with defective automatic front passenger seat belt, which does not retract, will not lock in position, causing loss of protection.

Consumer called complaining about having problems with the seat belts. Dealer and manufacture was contacted and stated that no warranty cover the seat belts at all. Ts.

Vehicle's rear seat belts are inoperative, they would retract or pull out.
