1990 FORD TAURUS Complaints

MOTOR MOUNTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. ALSO, STEERING IS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY, AND VEHICLE IS STALLING WHENEVER CONSUMER TRIES TO START VEHICLE UP. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING, AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, CAUSING THE CONSUMER TO LOSE A LITTLE STEERING. BROUGHT VEHICLE TO REPAIR SHOP TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED. DEALER PUT THE VEHICLE UP ON THE COMPUTER, AND STILL CAN'T DETERMINE THE PROBLEM THAT HAS RETURNED. *AK

JOANN LARKIN IS THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. THE HOOD CYLINDER THAT HOLDS THE HOOD UP BROKE, CAUSING THE FLUID TO COME OUT AND THE HOOD TO FALL, RESULTING IN INJURIES. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION AND VIN#. *AK

CAR WAS DRIVEN AT SLOW SPEED IN ORDER TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. IN DOING SO, PART OF THE STEERING ASSEMBLY UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR BROKE OFF, CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. RACK AND PINION ASSEMBLY WHICH BROKE PUNCTURED THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE.

CAR WAS DRIVEN AT LOW SPEED TURNING CORNER (DIRECTION OF TURN - RIGHT), WHEN FRONT STEERING CONTROL WAS SUDDENLY LOST. STEERING CONTROL LOSS WAS DUE TO STEERING ASSEMBLY UNDER FRONT END OF CAR BECOMING DETACHED FROM STRUT. THIS CAUSED SEVERED STEERING ASSEMBLY TO PUNCTURE RIGHT FRONT TIRE AND RIGHT REAR TIRE DUE TO SUDDEN BREAKING OF VEHICLE.

THE CONSUMER HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH BODY: MEMBERS AND FRAME. VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED FOR RECALL NUMBER 93V106002, AND YET THE VEHICLE THE IS STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE SIDE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE AT AN INTERSECTION, AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DRIVER WAS INJURED. *AK *ML

THE 2 MAJOR BOLTS THAT HOLD THE SUB-FRAMES UP BROKE, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO FALL WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

CRADLE BOLTS FAILED CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE CV BOOT AND BUSHINGS AND STABILIZER LINKS, RECALL COMPONENT HOWEVER CONSUMER WAS NEVER NOTIFIED.

I AM NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO MY COMMENT SO I WILL STATE THEM AGAIN. THE WINDSHEILD WIPERS CUT ON AND OFF WHILE IN OPERATION. YOU MUST CONTINUE TO TAP THE TURN SIGNAL OR TURN THE CONTROL TO KEEP THEM RUNNING. WHAT I FIND DISTURBING IS THAT I HAVE HAD TO DRIVE TWO OTHER FORD TRUCKS A 1993 F-150 AND A 1991 FORD RANGER AND THEY BOTH DO THE SAME THING. I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM MY DAD AND HE TELLS ME IT HAS ALWAYS DONE IT. THE OTHER TWO WHERE BOUGHT USED BUT HAVE ALWAYS DONE IT. IF YOU NEED THE VIN OF THE TAURUS OR F-150 I CAN GET THEM. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THIS INFORMATION
