Problem 1, paint peeling off hood and rough metal under problem 2, transmission began failing while under warrenty, dealership could not get any codes to show problem this, has continued to present. Was notifed this week by dealer that transmission needs replaced, but because every time you turn off the car the codes reset. Ford motor company and the dealer do not want to assist in the repairs of over $4500. 00. Bought extended warranty to 75,000 miles and problem first documented on there forms was at 60,000 miles. While driving the car would down shift and jerk. Happened several time and each time took to dealer they could not find a problem. On several occasions the car would not go in reverse but after turning car off and restarting it would.

Paint on hood in bubbling and peeling in front near the grill. Took to two Ford dealerships and they would not cover the repair because no service bulletin or recall. I have seen numerous vehicles like mine of the road with the same paint issue. This is a paint shop issue at Ford chicago assembly where this car was built.

Paint is bubbling up on the hood. I took it to a body shop and was told that Ford did not use the proper primer for over aluminum.

I have had nothing but problems with this car since I purchased it in 2010 with 32,000 miles on it. I purchased it in April and by the end of the first summer of driving it began to lose all power when driving slowly I would not be able turn the wheel or anything. Luckily all times it happened I was in a parking lot or at a stop sign. Ford said it needed a computer update which was not covered under the warranty. I paid 66. 00 for the update, it did not work my car still lose power sometimes when coasting. My car also accelerates without warning. This is very scary because this is my main vehicle and I have two small children. Ford says there they haven't witnessed the issue while driving it so they can't find the problem. Also with in that first year of owning this car my wrench light came on and remained on took it to the dealer and it now needed the throttle body replaced. It was still under warranty so I "only" needed to pay the 100. 00 deductible. I did and it was replaced. Sometimes the car will also unexpectedly grind to a halt. No idea what that is but it doesnâ??t happen frequently enough for them to witness it so they can't find the problem. To add to the list the passenger door is not sealed correctly and whenever it rains the inside of the door becomes filled with water, but thatâ??s not covered under warranty at all. And finally the paint on the hood is bubbling and chipping. The car is four years old now and no longer under the factory warranty so they won't cover it. I feel completely taken advantage of and I have no idea where to turn or what to do but I feel this car will not last the length of the loan. And I feel very unsafe driving my children in this vehicle. It makes me sick. I will never ever buy another Ford. Ford should step up and take responsibility before someone gets seriously injured.

Paint is bubbling and peeling off the hood of the car both at the front and at the windshield. I am the original owner of this 2008 Ford Taurus x limited. The metal underneath the peeling paint does not appear to be rusted. This seems to be an aluminum corrosion issue. Ford has told me both at the corporate and dealer level that they do not have a recall or service bulletin related to this problem. They did tell me to save my receipts incase they decide to cover the repair.

The paint is bubbling on the hood and is flaking away, I took it to a Ford dealership and they said although the paint is warrantied, the metal of the hood needs to become perforated before they will honor the warranty. This is even put in Ford's owner's manual as such. They knew there was a problem but they refuse to stand behind their product. There are many different years, makes, and models with the same defect. . Read more...

There is a lemon law blog regarding defective paint on various Ford vehicles, yet Ford knows of this problem but refuses to take responsibility for the defect. It is a shame for people to spend anywhere form $25,000. 00 - $40,000. 00 for a vehicle that has the paint bubbling off due to tainted body parts. There should be an investigation and Ford should be held accountable. . Read more...

Feb. 28 I close the truck. I noticed just below the license on the trunk the paint was blistered and peeling off the trunk. The problem was not there in Aug. , when I carefully put new plates on the car. The surface is down to the gray primer. I guess we will have to pay to have it repainted at your own expense.
