Two problems related to brake disc caliper have been reported for the 2011 Ford Taurus. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2011 Ford Taurus based on all problems reported for the 2011 Taurus.
Brakes/calipers on rear have seized twice in last 6 months resulting in replacement of calipers/brakes/rotors on rear. No uncommon use of vehicle. Brakes/calipers on front have seized once in last 6 months. This happened following the replacement of strut. Front struts bearing had seized and fractured on the passenger side of vehicle. No uncommon use of vehicle took place. No accident sustained. Problem was noticed when vehicle was turning (loud crunching and scraping noises).
In August, 2015, back brakes began grinding and scraping. Turns out the rear calipers had seized resulting the in the brakes grinding down to the plates. These were newer brakes and vehicle was recently purchased. Following the brakes and calipers being replaced, I was once again (October, 2015) back at the mechanic with the same issues. The calipers had once again seized on the back brakes, resulting in a chunking/grinding sound regardless of if I was braking or not.
