38 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2014 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 04/05/2019

I attempted to start my vehicle in my garage. Motor would crank but not start. I knew it was a fuel issue, so I googled the problem. I came across an issue with the fuel pump relay on 2013-2015 Taurus, flex, and inteceptors. Mostly related to law enforcement vehicles and civilian super charged engines that had a recall for this fuel pump relay modular. My Taurus is only a sel, and I saw where many other people were having the same issue with their everyday 2013-2015 Ford vehicle. These people replaced their own fuel pump relay module and fixed their problem. I decided to try it myself. Sure enough; I, a single mom on a very fixed income, gets a ride to my local auto parts store, buys the fuel pump relay module for $75. 00, install the part myself, and it worked like a charm! there needs to be a recall on all of these 2013-2015 Ford Taurus's so people like myself and the other few I came across online can get our money back, and prevent others from having to go through the panic of having only one vehicle (that should be very dependable) that won't start. I called Ford and they told me they would not issue any recall, the recall had to come from NHTSA. I am truly hoping that someone at the NHTSA will address this issue ASAP.

39 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2013 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 04/04/2019

Vehicle occasionally would stall at intersections or traffic lights; eventually the car would not restart at all. I had towed to Ford dealer in knoxville TN where they diagnosed the problem as the fuel pump, which they have replaced at $905 plus tax. I read for recalls and came across 16v621000 which completely describes my car's problem. The vehicle has only done 125,000 miles. A fuel pump should not have issues with mileage. Please can you help me obtain reimbursement. In two occasions a car nearly hit me from behind as I was stalled.

This part was overheating causing lack of power to the fuel pump.

62 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2014 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 06/08/2018

The vehicle will sometimes crank but will not start. It happens more often on hot days and when parked with the passenger side towards the sun. The local dealer is unable to diagnose the problem. I left the car with the dealer from 6/8/2018-6/20/2018 and the car only failed to start one time and they were unable to find the reason. Since picking the car up it has failed to start three times. I checked online and found that there is an issue with the fuel pump relay. I pulled the relay from our car and it is the same one that has a recall except ours is on a Taurus limited not the sho. I recommend recalling all vehicles with the same fuel pump relay regardless of model/trim. I have attached a photo of our car's fuel pump relay.

69 Other Fuel System Pump problem of the 2015 Ford Taurus

Failure Date: 10/07/2017

I purchased a 2015 Ford Taurus with 34,000 miles on it the beginning of October 2015. About a month ago I had a problem with the vehicle stalling out and then not starting. I spoke to someone at the local Ford dealership and was told to reset the fuel pump relay. After doing that the car cranked fine. I did online research of the vehicle and discovered that the 2013 to 2015 fuel pump relay on many of the same vehicles have been recalled. I searched my VIN number and found that my particular vehicle was not a part of the recall. In my research I also found out that this particular part shuts off the fuel supply in the event of an accident to prevent fire or explosion. And also that usually this part lasts throughout the lifetime of a vehicle unless it is faulty. Two days ago the car stalled and again will not crank I tried to reset the fuel pump relay again but it will still not grea to prevent fire or explosion. And also that usually this part lasts throughout the lifetime of a vehicle unless it is faulty. Two days ago the car stalled and again will not crank I tried to reset the fuel pump relay again but it will still not crank. I have been told by a Ford mechanic that it is a faulty fuel pump relay. I contacted Ford again to question if this part should have been made part of the recalled because this vehicle was built during the same time that the recalled relays were used. I was told by Ford customer service that the national highway traffic and safety administration and the engineering department of Ford need to be contacted to further help me in this matter to determine if this part should have in fact been added to the recall list. Thank you for your time and attention.
