2013 FORD TAURUS Complaints

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, 1 WEEKS AGO, POWER STEERING TOTALLY FAILED. WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MILES AN HOUR. THE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT WARNING CAME ON MY DISPLAY. HAD TO MAN HANDLE THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE I SHUT THE CAR DOWN. I PROCEEDED TO RESTART ENGINE AT WHICH TIME THE WARNING RESET ITSELF AND POWER STEERING CAME BACK. GOT MY CAR HOME WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS. JUST YESTERDAY AFTER STARTING MY CAR SAME WARNING CAME ON WITH TOTAL FAILURE OF STEERING SYSTEM. LUCKILY I WASN'T MOVING. I INVESTIGATED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. ALSO NOTED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AS STATED BY MANY IN THE RECALL FORUMS I VIEWED ONLINE. THE RECALL FOR THE DEFECT WAS ISSUED 06/02/2015 (RECALL # 15V340000). I WOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THE POWER STEERING FAULT DID NOT RESET ITSELF THIS TIME AND THE POWER STEERING ITSELF IS TOTALLY DISABLED.

MY FORD TAURUS 2013 LIMITED WONT STEER TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT WHEN DRIVING ON THE STREET I WAS LOOKING FOR THE POWER STEERING FLUID BUT MINE IS ELECTRONIC WITH 74000 MILES AND AM HAVING POWER STEERING PROBLEM ALREADY I SEE OTHER COMPLAINS ABOUT THE FORD TAURUS 2013.

ENGINE WILL TURN OVER HOWEVER WILL NOT START AS IF IT IS STARVED FOR FUEL OR NO SPARK

I WAS WORKING WITH SOMEONE TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS. HIS NAME WAS DONTE KIRKSEY. I HAVE ALL EMAILS . I HAD A FAILED PART THAT MADE MY CAR COMPLETEY STOP WHILE I WAS DRIVING. TBEY REALIZED IT WAS FORDS FAULT WAS SUPPOSE TO REIMBURSE US 700. AND STILL HAVENT HEARD BACK

MY FIRST PROBLEM WAS THE FUEL PUMP. THE SECOND WAS THE POWER STEERING. NOW I AM HAVING AN ENGINE PROBLEM THAT I AM WAITING ON A MECHANIC TO CHECK.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR WOULD CUT OFF. IT WOULD TRY TO START BUT NOT TURN OVER ALL THE WAY. AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS THE CAR WOULD RESTART.I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT IT WAS MY FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE. WHICH I SEE HAS BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE.

CAR STALLS AND CUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. IT LOSES ALL POWER AND SHUTS DOWN.IT HAS HAPPENED SERVERAL TIMES PERIODICAL ON A CITY STREET AS WELL AS ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION.THERE IS ALSO A PROBLEM WITH SMELLING GAS FUMES INSIDE THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD TAURUS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. DEAN SELLERS FORD (2600 W MAPLE RD, TROY, MI 48084) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000.

I WAS BACKING OUT MY YARD AND MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON WHICH MADE IT HARD FOR ME TO STEER. ALSO MY TRAC ADVANCE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL

THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK WITH THE KEY FOB. AT TIMES THEY APPEAR TO BE LOCKED, BUT ARE NOT. THIS OCCURRED AFTER A RECALL WHERE THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES WERE REPLACED. IT DID NOT DO IT AT THE DEALERSHIP SO IT COULD NOT BE FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW MY CAR WILL NOT START. IT STARTED, THEN DIED AND IT CRANKS, BUT DOES NOT START. EVENTUALLY THE BATTERY DIES. IT ACTS LIKE IT IS NOT GETTING FUEL. THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACE (13S04) IN JULY OF 2014. THERE IS A RECALL OF THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE (16S31) FOR CARS 201301015, BUT MINE IS NOT ONE OF THEM. IT SHOULD BE!
