Recently reported Equipment problems of the 2013 Ford Taurus

The Equipment problem

The car wouldn't start or even turn over. The vehicle is available for inspection. My safety was put at risk as the car broke down in the middle of nowhere, on a curve and a hill, smack dab in the middle of the road, cellphone, internet service and 911 was spotty at best, it was around midnight.   Read details...

The Carrier/rack problem

The headliner has detached from the vehicle despite only 5 years old. It blocks the rear window. Also, the upper center brake light is on the headliner and is now no operating properly because of its orientation. This is a major safety hazard. Ford has issued a TSB on this.   Read details...

The Owners/service Manual problem

Drivers side door lock fails to lock or unlock intermittently sometimes in between, making it very hard to manually unlock with the little nub, or by pulling the handle. The vehicle was stationary. It slowly got worse of time, to where most the time it doesn't work at all now.   Read details...
