1995 Ford Taurus complaints

ORIGINAL SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER FAILED AT 24840 MILES-REPAIRED BY DEALER. ORIGINAL ODOMETER FAILED AGAIN AT 24840 MILES-SPEEDO ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY DEALER. REPLACEMENT SPEEDOMETER FAILED AGAIN AT 47840 MILES-SPEEDO ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY DEALER. SECOND REPLACEMENT SPEEDOMETER FAILED AGAIN AT 62895 MILES-DEALER REFUSES TO REPLACE DUE TO WARRANTEE EXPIRATION. THREE FAILURES OF THE SAME COMPONENT AT APPROX 25000 MILE INTERVALS IS NOT NORMAL, AND PROBLEM HAS NEVER BEEN COMPLETELY CORRECTED, NOR HAS ROOT CAUSE EVER BEEN IDENTIFIED. FORD HAS SERVICE BULLETINS ON THIS PROBLEM FROM 1991 TO 1995 ON MORE THAN JUST THE TAURUS MODEL. FORD SHOULD DETERMINE THE ROOT CAUSE AND REPAIR MY VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE - REGARDLESS OF ANY WARRANTEE VERBIAGE TO THE CONTRARY. CURRENT FORD DEALERSHIP (JOE MYERS' FORD OF HOUSTON) IS NOT COOPERATIVE IN RESOLVING PROBLEM - REGIONAL REP DENIED WARRANTEE ASSISTANCE BASED SOLELY ON PAPERWORK AND REFUSES TO MEET WITH CUSTOMERS TO RESOLVE UNUSUAL PROBLEMS OR SITUATIONS. *AK

WHEN MY 3.8 LITRE ENGINE BLEW ITS HEAD GASKET I COULD NOT GET VEHICLE TO START AGAIN, AND HAD TO ELICIT THE HELP OF OTHERS TO PUSH THE VEHICLE FURTHER OUT OF HARMS WAY; THE CAR STOPPED ON AN EXTREMELY BUSY STREET AND THERE WERE MANY HONKING HORNS AND SEVERAL PEOPLE TRYING TO HAPHAZARDLY CHANGE OUT OF MY LANE; MANY NEAR ACCIDENTS AS THIS WAS AT RUSH HOUR HEADING INTO WORK; VERY HARROWING INCIDENT ALTHOUGH NO ONE WAS HURT. *AK

ENGINE HEAD GASKET FAILED AT 38000 MILES, ENTIRE ENGINE REPLACED BY FORD AT NO COST. THE NEW ENGINE HEAD GASKET FAILED 11 MONTHS AND 11000 MILES LATER AND IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR REPLACEMENT.

THIS IS 3RD.FAILURE & I HAVE TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY TO GET COOPERATION FROM THE GRAND PRAIRIE FORD DEALERSHIP THAT REPLACED THIS PART TWO TIMES AFTER MUCH BICKERING AND REFUSAL AND DENIAL OF RESPONSIBILITY. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS A UNIVERSAL PROBLEM AND FORD SHOULD CONTINUE TO REPLACE THIS PART WITHOUT ANY HASSELLS FOR THE CONSUMERS.NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED WITHIN SUMMARY. *AK

COOLING FAN SHORTED OUT BECAUSE OF THE SNOW. MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. NO RECALL FOR CONSUMER VEHICLE BY VIN#. *AK

SPEEDODOMETER REPLACED 02/03/1998 WITH ONLY 29776 MILES ON IT CO SAYS THEY WILL TALK TO ME ABOUT IT WHEN I GO IN NEXT WEEK. WAY ISNT THE FORD CO EREPLACING THESE ITS SEMMS TO BE A PROBLEM ON ALL 95 TAURUS?*AK

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED FAILURE OF THE RECALL COMPONENT AFTER INITIAL INSPECTION, DENIED SERVICE FOR EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME (2-3 WEEKS), OWNER WENT TO ANOTHER LOCATION FOR WORK TO BE COMPLETED DUE TO SCHEDULING PROBLEMS. *MJS

SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE BOUNES WIDELY BEYOND 40 MPH. *AK

SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE JUMPED AROUND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE SPEED. FIRST OCCURRANCE WAS AT APPROXIMATELY 19000 MILES, SPEEDOMETER REPLACED AT 21215 MILES; PROBLEM RECURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 33000 MILES, DEALER LUBED SPEEDOMETER CABLE; PROBLEM RECURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 50,000 MILES, SPEEDOMETER REPLACED AT 51252 MILES; PROBLEM RECURRED AT AT 69,650 MILES, SCHEDULED TO HAVE SPEEDOMETER REPLACED AGAIN MAKING THIS THE FOURTH SPEEDOMETER SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. *AK

THE ORIGINAL SPEEDOMETER WAS REPLACED (UNDER WARRANTY) AT APPROXIMATELY 27,000 MILES BECAUSE IT BECAME ERRATIC OVER 40 MPH. ERRACTIC MEANS THAT ONCE I GET ABOVE 40 MPH, THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE CONSTANTLY BOUNCES BETWEEN 35 MPH AND 85 MPH AND MAKES VARIOUS HIGH-PITCHED OR "GROWLING-TYPE" NOISES. IT VARY RARELY WOULD STEADY ITSELF AT ONE RATE. EASTGATE FORD REPLACED THE SPEEDOMETER WITH THE FIRST PROBLEM. WITH THE REPLACEMENT SPEEDOMETER, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME ERRATIC BEHAVIOR AFTER ONLY 10,000 - 15,000 MILES. I HAVE NOT REPLACED IT BECAUSE I WAS PROVIDED A QUOTE OF $450 TO REPLACE THE UNIT. WHEN SEARCHING THE WEB AND THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS FOR THIS PROBLEM, IT STATES THAT THERE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ENOUGH LUBRICANT PLACED IN THE SPEEDOMETER CABLE DURING MANUFACTURE. THE ONLY WAY TO "REPAIR" THIS PROBLEM IS TO REPLACE THE UNIT. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SPEED I AM TRAVELING ON CITY ROADS OR HIGHWAYS ONCE I GET ABOVE 40 MPH. I HAVE TO DRIVE AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME RATE OF SPEED AS THE OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME AND HOPE THAT THEY ARE DRIVING AT/AROUND THE SPEED LIMIT. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT I AM WEARING OUT THE PLASTIC NEEDLE AND ANY ASSOCIATED BEARINGS BECAUSE OF THE NOISES THAT ARE GENERATED. IF THE BEARINGS WEAR OUT, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TELL MY RATE OF SPEED AT ANY TIME, INCLUDING SCHOOL ZONES! AN INTERESTING NOTE IS THAT MY STEP-MOTHER HAS A 1993 FORD ESCORT WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. MY HUS

WHEN COMING TO A STOP AND THEN APPLYING THE GAS, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN IT JUMPS FORWARD. DEALER SAID NEW TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE PUT INTO VEHICLE. *AK

I HAVE HAD 3 SPEEDOMETERS FAIL WITHIN 60,000 MILES OVER A 2 YEAR TIME PERIOD. THE NEEDLE ON THE SPEEDOMETER STICKS OR BOUNCES BACK AND FORTH, THE FIRST TIME WAS AT 32,000 MILES AND I BELIEVE IT WAS FEBRUARY OF 1998. THE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRENTY AT THAT TIME. THE SECOND TIME IT FAILED WAS AT ABOUT 55,000 MILES IN SEPT. OF 1998. BECAUSE MY DAILY COMMUTE IS SO LONG, I WAS WELL OVER THE 12,000 MILE WARRENTY ON THE REPLACEMENT PART, EVEN THOUGH IT HAD ONLY BEEN 6 MONTHS. I DID NOT HAVE THE PART REPLACED UNTIL JANUARY OR FEBRUARY BECAUSE OF THE COST. AT THE TIME I HAD THE SPEEDOMETER REPLACED I WAS AT 60,000 MILES. AT THAT TIME I PLEADED WITH FORD TO EXTEND THE MILAGE LIMIT ON THE PART BECAUSE I JUST KNEW THE THING WOULDN'T LAST A YEAR. THEY REFUSED, OF COURSE, AND INSIST THEY HAVE HAD NO REPORTS OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS. NONE OF THE DEALERSHIPS I HAVE DEALTH WITH ON THIS ARE WILLING TO HELP EITHER. AS EXPECTED, I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE SPEEDOMETER IN NOVEMBER OF 1999, ABOUT 7 MONTHS AFTER THE LAST REPLACEMENT. BECAUSE THE CAR WAS AT 81,000 MILES I COULDN'T GET ANYONE TO EVEN DISCUSS IT WITH ME. I HAVE SINCE FOUND INFORMATION - VIA THE WEB - THAT SUGGESTS THERE HAS BEEN AS SERVICE BULLUTIN ISSUED ON THIS PROBLEM. *AK

SPEEDOMETER FAILED ON TWO OCCASIONS. 1ST FAILURE COMMENCED AT 59,000 MILES OF WEAR; AND 2ND FAILURE OCCURRED AT 77,000 MILES. DEALER NOTIFIED AND REFUSED TO REPAIR UNLESS COST IS PICKED UP BY CONSUMER. *AK

UPON LEAVING A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT CAR HESITATES A FEW SECONDS THEN "JERKS" BACK AND ONLY THEN PROCEEDS, THUS CAUSING NEAR ACCIDENTS

TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE FAILED.*ET

CONTACTED MR.JAC NASSER BY CERTIFIED MAIL AND WAS SUSEQUENTLY CONTACTED BY A MR.LANCE TANG WHO STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY PERIOD.THERE IS A FORD SERVICE BULLETIN 97-12 WHICH ADDRESSES THIS PROBLEM AND ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER REFUSES TO DO ANY FURTHER REPAIRS ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS WHICH CAUSES THE SPEEDOMETER TO FLUCTUATE WILDLY AT SPEEDS IN THE VICINITY OF 40 - 50 MPH. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS CLAIM AS THEIR CONTENTION IS THAT IT IS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY PERIOD EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM RE-OCCURS. THIS IS NOT FIXING A PROBLEM IT IS ONLY A BAND AID TO GET THE VEHICLE PAST THE WARRANTY MILEAGE. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AS COVERED BY FMVSS101. NO SAFETY DEFECT MENTIONE DIN SUMMARY. *AK

HAD A HEAD BOLT HEATER INSTALLED AND OIL CHANGED 3 DAYS PRIOR TO FIRE. NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO USE HEATER. CAR WAS WARMING UP WHEN FIRE OCCURED. ANY IDEAS ON POSSIBLE CAUSES? *AK

BETWEEN 55-65MPH THE SPEEDOMETER BECAME ERRATICALLY AND DID NOT READ PROPER SPEED. *AK

SPEEDOMETER BOUNCES BETWEEN 50 AND 85 MILES PER HR.SPEEDOMETER WAS REPLACED AT 16000 MI. ON WARRANTY ,AND WENT BAD AGAIN AT 38000 MI. FORD REFUSES TO REPLACE AGAIN. *AK

SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE FLIES UP TO 70-75, THEN DOWN BELOW CURRENT SPEED. WAS REPLACED IN MARCH OF 1998, HAS NOW FAILED AGAIN. BOTH TIMES, THE DEALER HAS REFUSED TO PAY FOR ANY OF THE REPAIR. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED AT 36,700 (BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY); THE DEALER WOULD NOT EVEN PAY FOR HALF THE REPAIR. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A SPEEDOMETER FAILING EVEN ONCE; THIS ONE HAS NOW FAILED TWICE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *AK

SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE JUMPS AND MAKES A GRINIDNG NOISE AT SPEEDS OVER 40 MPH. WE HAVE REPLACED THIS PART TWICE IN THE PAST 2 YEARS. *AK

THERE ARE TWO PROBLEMS WITH THIS 1995 FORD TAURUS. THE MOST SERIOUS IS THE STICKING ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THIS OCCURRED ON A COLD EVENING WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED AND PUT IN REVERSE. IT STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND WAS REMEDIED ONLY WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED OFF TO STOP THE CAR. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS THE NOISY AND INACCURATED SPEEDOMETER WHICH HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. *AK

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE FORD TAURUS. NO SAFETY DEFECT (S) MENTIONE DIN SUMMARY. *AK

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES PROBLEM WHENEVER CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED AND BRAKE PEDAL IS APPLIED. INSTEAD OF CRUISECONTROL DISENGAGING, VEHICLE SUDDENLY GOES INTO A ACELERATION MOD. CONSUMER WOULD HAVE TO SHIFT VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND TURN OFF IGNITION SWITCH TO DISENGAGE CRUISE CONTROL. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK

TRANSMISSION CEASES TO FUNCTION WITHOUT ANY WARNING (SOUND, PERFORMANCE CHANGE, ETC.). IN THIS INCIDENT, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AT A BUSY JUNCTION OF THE EDENS AND THE KENNEDY EXPRESSWAYS IN CHICAGO CAUSING THE CAR TO LOSE POWER UNEXPECTEDLY. FORTUNATELY THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO GET ONTO THE LEFT HAND SHOULDER AND WITH THE HELP OF THE ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TRUCK (IDOT) TO GET OFF THE EXPRESSWAY WITHOUT INJURY OR OTHER DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE SITUATION WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THIS OCCURRED AT A BEND IN THE ROAD WHERE PASSING TRAFFIC TENDS TO COME ONTO THE SHOULDER. IN ADDITION TRAFFIC WAS BOTH VERY HEAVY AND VERY FAST MOVING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS TRANSMISSION FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION FAILED IN JUNE 1998 AT 48360 MILES AND WAS REPLACED BY FORD UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. CAR HAS HAD COMPLETE SERVICE SINCE NEW INCLUDING ALL RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGES AND ADJUSTMENTS. CAR IS USED FOR RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES (ERRANDS & TRIPS), HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, AND HAS BEEN OPERATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FORD'S USAGE GUIDELINES (LOAD WEIGHT, ETC.). IT HAS HAD NO UNUSUAL OR HEAVY STRESS USAGE. *AK

THE SPEEDOMETERS ON 1995 FORD TAURUS CARS ARE FAILING REGULARLY, AND FORD KNOWS THEY ARE DEFECTIVE. THEY ARE REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE UNITS WITH OTHER DEFECTIVE UNITS, UNTIL THE WARRANTY EXPIRES AND THE OWNER IS LEFT WITH A BILL IN EXCESS OF $600.00 TO REPLACE THE UNIT. DUE TO THE EXTREMELY HIGH COST OF REPLACEMENT, MOST OWNERS WILL OPT TO DRIVE IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION, I.E. WITHOUT A WORKING SPEEDOMETER. FORD SHOULD REDESIGN THIS SPEEDOMETER AND REPLACE ALL EXISTING UNITS IN A GENERAL RECALL AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION. *AK

A RAPID FAILURE OF THE HEAD GASKET FORCED ME TO ABANDON MY VEHICLE IN AN UNSAFE LOCATION. I THEN HAD TO WALK A SIGNIFICANT DISTANCE IN BELOW FREEZING CONDITIONS TO SEEK ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE CAME WITHOUT WARNING. AT MY REQUEST, THE HEAD GASKET HAD BEEN CHECKED BY A FORD MECHANIC 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. *AK

ENGINE HEAD GASKET LEAK HAS CAUSED THE NEED TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR, TIMING CHAIN COVER, BEARINGS, CRANK AND CAM SHAFT, MOTOR NEEDS TO BE REBUILT, BUT THE WARRANTY CO. THAT THE FORD DEALER SOLD US AS THEY WOULD NOT SELL US THE FORD WARRANTY AS WE BOUGHT A DEMO WILL ONLY PUT IN A JUNK YARD MOTOR FROM A CAR THAT WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAS APPROX. 30,000 MILES ON IT WE ARE PAYING ON A RENTAL CAR AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT DID NOT LET THE PUBLIC KNOW THAT THEIR ENGINE HEAD GASKETS LEAK, AND THAT THE WHOLE MOTOR WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF INTERMIXING OF FUEL. WE HAD NO PRIOR WARNING UNTIL WE HAD A LEAK OF ANTI-FREEZE NOW WE WILL HAVE SOME KIND OF JUNK YARD MOTOR FROM SOME CAR AND BILLS BEYOND WHAT THE WARRANTY WILL COVER. WE WANT TO BE PART OF A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST FORD WHO WHEN WE CALLED THEM SAID "SORRY." *AK

RADIATOR FAILED CAUSING LEAKAGE. MJS

THE ENGINE FAILED WHILE DRIVING DUE TO PINCHED WIRE HARNESS UNDER THE DRIVER'S SEAT WHICH BURNED THE RELAY ON THE ENGINE. YH

THE FRONT ENGINE MOUNTS FAILED AND I HAVE TALKED TO AT LEAST 5 OTHER TAURUS OWNERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS IN THE 3.8 LITER FORD TAURUS. THIS REALLY SEEMS LIKE A DESIGN FLAW THAT COULD PROVE DANGEROUS SINCE STEERING PROBLEMS CAN OCCUR WITH ENGINE MOUNT FAILURES.

AFTER 35 MPH SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE BOUNCES TO 100. CONSUMER DOES NOT KNOW HOW FAST HE IS TRAVELING. FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB BULLETIN ON THIS REOCCURRING PROBLEM. *AK

INACCURATE TEMP GAUGE OCCURES MOSTLY IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT (GAUGE IS 20 DEGREES BELOW REPORTED TEMP,THIS IS EVEN AFTER DRIVING 15+ MILES OR 20+ MINS.) PRESSURE TEST HAS BEEN DONE ON COOLING SYS.,NO LEAKS,LOSING ANTI-FREEZE SOMEWHERE,HAVE TO ADD FLUID OCCASIONALLY. BRAND NEW TIRES,HAVE 6,000 MILES ON THEM.VIBRATION STARTED AFTER PURCHASE,SPEEDS ABOVE 65 MPH. BALANCED AGAIN, STILL VIBRATING ABOVE 65 MPH.( DOT NUMBER: 2242KPRL TIRE SIZE: MSP2056592 )

ABS SYSTEM AND THE BRAKES ARE WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. VEHICLE WAS TOWED IN AND DEALER DECIDED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. GREASED THE REAR CALIPERS AND ADJUSTED BRAKES. NO PROBLEM NOW. *AJK

A FAULTY SPEEDOMETER; AT 36,000 MILE DEALER REPLACED SPEEDOMETER BECAUSE INTERMITTENTLY THE DIAL WOULD JUMP BACK AND FORTH OR NOT REGISTER AT ALL. NOW AT 45,000 THE PROBLEM IS REOCCURRING. DEALER / MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED AND REFUSED TO REPAIR UNLESS COST GOES TO CONSUMER. *AK

A/C HOSE & MANIFOLD FAILED CAUSING COOLANT TO LEAK AND CAUSE MALFUNCTION OF SYSTEM. *ET

IN A PARKING LOT WAS NOT ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BATTERY. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER, AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THIS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY. *AK
