What owners report
This car has left me stranded multiple times. Took to dealership to find out the fuel pump that had been replaced at 90,000 was dead. Catalytic converter replaced at 125,000. Replaced fuel pump control module, fuel pump and sending unit for the 2nd time in 2014 Ford Taurus SEL AWD with 132,000 miles. Now it is sending a check engine code P0461 which is most likely due to the recent replacement messing with PCM values. The 3.5 DOHC engines should be recalled as well for the fuel system issues along with the other models recalled.
My rear-view (back-up) camera displays the image âreversedâ when I put the vehicle in reverse, meaning the direction of what I see doesnât match the direction the vehicle is actually moving. This is dangerous because it can confuse the driver when judging distances and steering or aligning the car while backing up, increasing the risk of hitting a person, child, or parked objectâespecially in tight spaces, at low speeds, or when visibility is limited (night, rain, or glare). Iâm requesting inspection and corrective action to ensure the camera feed is properly oriented and reliable before the vehicle is used for reversing maneuvers.
Hello - the steering wheel has become very difficult to turn including inability to turn to the right or left at times, and seems to increase over time but has decreased while remaining stiff/difficult at times.I thought it was related to low/missing power steering fluid or the weather because the steering improved on a warm/warmer day. When I tested the weather theory it was another warm/hot day and later in the day meaning the car didn't require as much or any warm up as it usually does on cold days/earlier in the day. The steering was so difficult I couldn't turn the wheel to the right at all and it was extremely hard to turn to the left but less than difficulty trying to turn to the righ
There is a recall on 2014 Ford Taurusâ but my VIN does not pop as one that is effective, yet I have all the symptoms. My fuel pump control module, and other various parts of my fuel pump keep failing. Completely lost power in my gas pedal today while on the highway. Couldnât speed up or do anything. Once I came to a stop, the car wouldnât start. It would just crank but no turnover. This fuel pump issue has happened 3 times now, but my car is not listed up the recall list. I feel that this is a safety issue and falls under all the same issues that others are having. Can provide receipts showing the previous repairs.
Foot pedal parking brake stopped holding it's position. Pedal will move up and down, and parking brake light remains illuminated, but the system is not actually holding pressure on the parking brakes. Failure is caused by a small plastic piece that is used against metal components in the parking brake assembly and eventually breaks. This can cause the vehicle to roll unintentionally and increase the risk of an accident. This issue has already been reported for the same vehicle as mine under NHTSA Campaign Number: 11113016 and I suspect it has been reported under additional models and years as well since it is a commonly reported issue on internet forums, yet no investigation or recall has
