2015 FORD TAURUS Complaints

CAR SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING WHILE DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. WHEEL LOCKS UP NO POWER PERIOD. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES RESETS ITSELF AND START AGAIN. IF YOU TRY TO START IMEDIATLY, WILL NOT START. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER PAST FEW MONTHS

CAR STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR THIS SPRING. ONCE I WAS COMPLETING A TURN FROM A STOP THE OTHER TIME I WAS DOING A CONSISTENT SPEED OF ABOUT 40MPH. NO WARNING LIGHTS BEFORE OR AFTER, JUST A NOTIFICATION THE 'TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK' ONCE THE CAR WASN'T RUNNING. EACH TIME THE DEALER PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER AND SAID THERE IS NO ISSUE FOUND. THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2013-1015 TAURUS HOWEVER MY VIN ISN'T INCLUDED IN THE FUEL PUMP ELECTRIC MODULE REPLACEMENT THOUGH STALLING IS AN ISSUE CITED IN THAT RECALL. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP ELECTRIC MODULE BECAUSE THE COMPUTER SAYS SO. I LEFT MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR ABOUT 3 WEEKS THINKING IT MIGHT BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM SINCE THE GPS INTERMITTENTLY DOESN'T WORK THE PANIC ALARM GOES OFF MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK FOR NO REASON. DEALER SUGGESTS REPLACING THE SD CARD. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR, ESPECIALLY WITH THE DEATHS RECENTLY FROM CARS STALLING. I WILL MOST LIKELY PAY OUT OF POCKET TO CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP ELECTRIC MODULE AS I CAN'T AVOID THE HIGHWAY FOREVER. I WILL BE HAPPY TO SEND YOU THE PART ONCE IT IS REPLACED IF IT WILL HELP INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. HOPEFULLY THAT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM, OTHERWISE I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. HELP PLEASE! I DON'T HAVE POLICE REPORTS OR ACCIDENT PHOTOS THANKFULLY.

TAKATA RECALL, FAULTY FUEL PUMP, WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, OR NO WARNING. DROVE IT TO WORK JUST FINE , AND WHEN I GOT OF 8 HOURS LATER IT WOULDNT TURN OVER. LIKE I SAID NO WARNING WHATSOEVER. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED OFF MY WORK PARKING LOT AND TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP

POWER STEERING FAULT ON 2015 FORD TAURUS, PREVIOUS YEARS RECALLED FOR SANE REASON. WHY NO RECALL? WAS DRIVING HOME AND MY STEERING WHEEL JERKED RIGHT AND POWER STEERING WENT OUT, WHAT IF THERE WERE CARS TO MY RIGHT?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD TAURUS. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING STEERING THE VEHICLE REQUIRED ADDED EFFORT THE CONTACT BELIEVES FAILURE WAS POWER STEERING HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO VERIFY DUE TO NO CODES PRESENT AT DIAGNOSTIC THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, WITHOUT WARNING THE POWER STEERING BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXTRA EFFORT WAS NEEDED IN MANEUVERING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS INTENDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE OR DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ONCE. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

I WAS DRIVING TO BURLINGTON MA ON AUGUST 29, 2019 AND, WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN TO ENTER ONTO RTE 3 NORTHBOUND, I LOST ALL MY POWER STEERING. AT THE MOMENT OF FAILURE, THE STEERING WHEEL SNAPPED ABRUPTLY TO THE LEFT ALMOST CAUSING ME TO HIT THE GUARD RAIL. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO WRESTLE/TURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I HAD NO POWER STEERING ALL THE WAY HOME. WHEN I WRESTLED THE CAR INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT HOME, I SHUT IT OFF, WAITED A MINUTE AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE DASH IDIOT LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE POWER STEERING WAS WORKING. I HAVE NOT USED AND DON'T PLAN ON USING THE CAR UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS FIXED. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2019. I BELIEVE THE CAUSE OF THE CATASTROPHIC FAILURE IS RELATED TO THE SENSORS ON THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN THAT COMMUNICATE WITH THE COMPUTER WHICH CONTROLS THE ELECTRIC RACK AND PINION SYSTEM.

2015 FORD TAURUS UNDER 93,000 WATER PUMP FAILURE. NO WARNINGS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. STARTED TO OVER HEAT AND COOLANT WAS PORING OUT UNDERNEATH. HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE WATER PUMP NEEDS REPLACED. OVER $2000 DOLLARS FOR THIS FIX. THE WATER PUMP SHOULD LAST UNTIL 150,000. FORD KNEW IT WAS AN ISSUE AND NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX IT. CURRENTLY STILL IN GARAGE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.

THE STEERING ON OUR 2015 FORD TAURUS HAS BEEN DISENGAGING WHILE THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN. FIRST WE GET A MESSAGE THAT THE STEERING NEEDS TO BE SERVICED. NEXT, ANOTHER MESSAGE FLASHED, THE CAR JERKS AND THE POWER STEERING DISENGAGES MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE CAR.

THE STEERING ON MY 2015 FORD TAURUS FLASHES A MESSAGE TO HAVE THE STEERING SERVICED. SHORTLY, FOLLOWING THIS WHEN I BEGIN TO MAKE A TURN...ANOTHER MESSAGE POPS UP AND THE POWER STEERING DISENGAGES, MAKING IT VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL THE CAR.
