general problems of the 2002 Ford Taurus

Left front spring broke and punctured the tire and a link.

Normal driving conditions, tires failed to hold air pressure. Both front tires within one month of each other failed. Tires appeared to be dry rotted on corner of side walls. Both tires had same area of dry rot/cracks in tread. Tires had less then 20,000 miles on them and where properly maintained. Dealer replaced tires. Mfg. Tbc, touring tr vanderbilt.

Backing out of garage heard loud leak of air. Thought flat tire. When about to change tire discovered coil broke and slashed tire. Thank god didn't happen a couple weeks before when son borrowed car and was driving on highway out of state. Of course no recall on these coils so had to pay out of pocket cor 2 new rear coil springs and labor to install. Checked on internet and read hundreds of posts on this problem with the Taurus. Why not a recall on this year??.

Vehicle tires showing signs of dry rot. The vehicle experienced a flat tire. Roadside assistance found a crack in the tire tread. The consumer was told that all the tires had signs of dry rot and a technician stated that the entire tire had cracks around it. Ford showed no sign of concern.

I bought what I thought were 4 brand new goodyear aquatred tires from graham tire here in grand island, nebraska. . . I got 3 tires dot. . . Serial number. . . . Mkx83mhr2901 and 1 tire dot. . . Serial number. . . . Mkx83mhr2402 the 2402 tire runs hot, and in my opinion is unsafe. I see the dot. . . Mkx code is for re tire kershaw, south carolina. . . And its listed under re-treads. Was I sold four re-tread tires. . . . As four new tires? if so I have been cheated. Please reply. . . Thank you.

Vehicle tire equipment has several blisters. The left front tire had 11 blisters. The consumer had taken the vehicle to an authorized dealer in which they informed him that the tires had been driven with low pressure.
