1 Fuel Injection problem of the 2003 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 06/01/2007

Engine continually cuts out, stalls, fails to accelerate, etc. I was told this was due to the cam sensor assembly which Ford admits is faulty. . . And yet I am having to pay over $500 in order to fix this!!.

2 Fuel Injection problem of the 1999 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 10/07/2002

Problems with car since day one. Began with wipers turning on by themselves, spoke to mechanic, said it was nothing to worry about. Then the car kept refusing to switch gears (second to third), the speedometer would quit and car died on side of road several times. Along with this problem, the brakes squealed very loud. Called dealer, would not help, sent me to Ford dealer (dave goulds). Replaced speed sensor, scraped "rust" off brakes and said they may continue to squeal, they do! the car picks up speed from no where, specially when coming from a stop. Very scarey, refuse to let my daughter drive because of it. Now the power steering is making a horrible hum and I have lost power steering on several occaisions. Added fluid, the next day it looked like cocoa bubbling out. I contacted the gould Ford dealership and I have to bring it in tomorrow. I am afraid to drive it and he tells me that my extended warranty most likely won't cover the repair (they didn't cover the speed sensor either). I bought this car at a local company after a severe accident, it was traumatizing to get back behind the wheel, but this car is like a rolling death trap, why isn't Ford recalling them? mr.

4 Fuel Injection problem of the 1999 Ford Taurus

5 Fuel Injection problem of the 2002 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 11/08/2001

When car has been driven for a while & gets hot, then you stop and get back into it after a few minutes and start it back up, the car does not want to run. It's like it is not getting any gas. It will try to die at a stop sign/light, and will choke and surge & bounce upon accelleration. I have almost been involved in a serious auto accident because of this. I have had it to the dealer 4 times for repairs, they have replaced the fuel pump but, this did not solve the problem. The dealership records somehow only show I've had the car in there 3 times, I have proof that I was in there 4 times. I am seriously concerned about driving this vehicle, I am afraid for my family's safety if it stalls out pulling out into traffic again. The dealership has told me anything from maybe it's my driving style, to maybe it's "winter blend" gas, to push the throttle down 1/4 way when starting the engine (I have no problem with starting the car), to once I start the car, push the throttle all the way down a couple times to "clean out anything that might be stuck in there". I need a dependable safe car. I am afraid to drive this car unless I absoultly have to.
