1991 Ford Taurus Complaint Log

MY 1991 NON SHO FORD TAURUS WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY FOR 1 DAY. I WALKED OUT TO MY CAR IN THE EARLY MORNING TO TAKE IT TO WORK. I PUT THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION AND SHIFTED THE CAR INTO REVERSE. IT WAS AT THIS MOMENT, THAT THE CAR ACCELERATED AND I ENDED UP GOING IN REVERSE DOWN THE STREET WITHOUT BRAKES AT A VERY RAPID SPEED. I CAME TO A JARRING STOP AFTER I IMPACTED A CAR THAT WAS PARKED ON THE STREET. BRAKES WERE SQUISHY AND NON-FUNCTIONING. THE CAR WAS UNABLE TO STOP BY MECHANICAL MEANS. THE CAR ACCELERATED TO 45 MILES AN HOUR. THE CAR IS NOW TOTALED AND IS VISUALLY COMPLETELY WRECKED. I EXPERIENCED WHIPLASH AND IF THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE STREET THAT MORNING, I WOULD HAVE SMASHED INTO A HOUSE, POSSIBLY KILLING SOMEONE OR MYSELF IN THE PROCESS. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED. *TR

A POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK NEAR THE RACK RESULTED IN A FIRE, WHICH DESTROYED THE VEHICLE, AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES OF HIGHWAY DRIVING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1991 FORD TAURUS. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE BUMPER WAS PARTIALLY OUT OF THE GARAGE. HE DROVE APPROXIMATELY 1 MPH, TO CLEAR THE GARAGE DOOR DID NOT TOUCH ACCELERATOR PEDAL, AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A WALL. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THERE WAS $5,000 IN DAMAGES TO VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 25,480.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1991 FORD TAURUS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED MOVING FORWARD AND WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO REVERSE GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HIS RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT INSPECTED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 69,000.

THE BLOWER MOTOR IN MY 1991 FORD TAURUS IS STARTING TO GO OUT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST WEEK AND A HALF. I WILL TURN THE HEAT ON HIGH IN THE MORNINGS TO WARM UP THE CAR AN WITHIN A 10-15 MINUTE TIME FRAME - THE MOTOR WILL EITHER STOP BLOWING COMPLETELY OR BARELY BLOW. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL UNDER 03V087000 AND COMPLAINT NUMBER 10184014. AS I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR FORD VEHICLES AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. *TR

I WAS ADVISED BY A MECHANIC RECENTLY THAT MY VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE. HE SHOWED ME THE REAR SUBFRAME BOLT THAT WAS DETERIORATED TO ABOUT HALF OF ITS ORIGINAL SIZE AND THAT THE SUBFRAME WAS RUSTED HEAVILY AND CRACKED COMPLETELY THROUGH. THIS WAS AFTER THE RECALL WAS DONE ON MY VEHICLE IN 1999 FOR NHTSA ARTICLE NO. 98V323000. SO THE WORK THAT WAS DONE TO KEEP THE SUBFRAME FROM FALLING IS NOT HOLDING UP AND IT APPEARS THAT IT COULD BREAK SOON. *JB

THE TRANS-AXLE RECALL WAS NEVER REPAIRED EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED 3 TIMES FOR OTHER RECALLS, THE VEHICLE HAS HAD THREE RECALLS SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. NLM *JB

BELTS ON TIRE BCAME SEPARATED, CAUSING TIRE TO COME APART. *AK

I WAS NOTIFIED BY MY MECHANIC THAT MY 1991 TAURUS-STATION WAGON HAD A RECALL REGARDING THE SUB-FRAME. HE SUGGESTED I CALL RIZZO-FORD IN NO. PROVIDENCE, R.I. ON MINERAL SPRING AVE. WHEN I CALLED I SPOKE TO REPRESENTATIVE RICK MARRCONTE AND HE AGREED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL AND HE WOULD FIX MY CAR, BRING IT IN HE SAID. A FEW DAYS LATER RICK CALLS ME BACK TO INFORM ME THAT NOT ONLY THE NUT OF THE SUBFRAME WAS ROTTED, BUT ALSO THE SUBFRAME ITSELF WAS ROTTED AND IT WOULD COST $900.00 TO FIX AND HE TOLD ME MY CAR WAS NOT WORTH IT. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, I PLAYED PHONE TAG WITH THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY HOT LINE WHICH SEEMED LIKE FOREVER. A SHEILA INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE WILLING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR IF THE COMPANY AGREED TO REPAIR IT. SHE LATER EXPLAINED THEY REFUSED TO FIX MY CAR. THIS FAULT IN MY CAR ALMOST HAD ME AND MY 6 YEAR OLD GRANDSON IN AN ACCIDENT. WHEN I TOLD THE WOMAN SHEILA THIS SHE EXPLAINED TO ME THAT I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN WHEN BUYING THIS CAR THAT I SHOULD HAVE CALLED TO FIND OUT ABOUT THE RECALLS. THIS I DO NOT UNDERSTAND...SHE WANTED ME TO CALL AND FIND OUT IF MY CAR WAS A 'LEMON'? NOW BECAUSE THIS DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO HELP ME IT NOW MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR ME TO PERHAPS GO TO ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP THAT MAY HAVE BE ABLE TO HELP ME. I AM A STUDENT @ URI/CCE, ALSO WORKING, AND TAKING CARE OF MY 80 YEAR OLD FATHER. PRIOR TO THIS DAMAGE I HAD JUST FIX THIS CAR FOR $750.00, WHICH I COULD NOT AFFORD IN THE FIRST PLACE. THIS APPEARS TO BE DISHONEST AND A WAY TO GET PEOPLE TO GIVE FORD EVEN MORE MONEY TOWARDS THEIR 'DAMAGING POOL'. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE I CAN TAKE? PLEASE ADVICE. MARIA D. O'CONNOR *JB

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP A JERKING MOTION WAS PRODUCED. AS A RESULT, STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT. DEALER STATED MOTOR MOUNTS FAILED. A RECALL 98V323000 WAS ISSUED, HOWEVER, THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

MY FORD TAURUS 1991 STATION WAGON LUNGED FORWARD UNCONTROLLABLY AFTER BACKING UP, BRAKING, THEN STARTING TO GO FORWARD. IT WENT AGAINST A WALL, THE BRAKE DIDN'T WORK, THE FRONT OF THE CAR WAS CRASHED, I HAD TO PUT IT INTO PARK TO STOP IT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY OTHER CAR SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. MY MECHANIC TESTED IT AND IT DID THIS ANOTHER 3 TIMES.*AK

I CAN'T POSSIBLY REMEMBER THE DATES THESE THINGS HAPPENED. I PUT A NEW (USED) TRANSMISSION AND THIS ONE IS SLIPPING. I PUT MORE BRAKE PADS AND CALIPERS THAN YOU WOULD USE IN A LIFE TIME. THE SPRINGS ARE WEAK IN THE BACK, BUT TO EXSPENSIVE TO CHANGE. I PUT A NEW FUEL PUMP AND GAS TANK. I'VE PUT A NEW EGR VALVE, OXYGEN SENSOR, THROTTLE SENSOR, AIR TEMP SENSOR. I PUT A BLINKER SWITCH AND NEW STRUTS BECAUSE MINE BROKE. 3 OUT OF 4 OF MY DOORS WILL NOT OPEN BECAUSE OF THE HANDLES. THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE THINGS I WROTE DOWN OR CAN REMEMBER. NOW IT WILL NOT START UNLESS I PUMP THE GAS(IT'S FUEL INJECTED) AND KEEP TURNING IT OVER AND OVER. THEN I'M NOT SURE IF IT WILL START AGAIN WHEN I SHUT IT OFF. THE FUEL PUMP IS WORKING I THINK, I CAN HEAR IT. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND THE PERSON PUT A 1989 MOTOR INTO A 1991 BODY. THESE THINGS STILL WENT WRONG WITH THE CAR EITHER WAY. I DID NOT CHECK ANY BELOW BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO CHECK.

MY 1991 FORD TAURUS WAGON HAS ALWAYS HAD MAJOR TRANSAXLE PROBLEMS! ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE TRANSMISSION PAN BOLTS LOOSSENED ON THEIR OWN. THIS HAS CAUSED PREMATURE TRANSMISSION DAMAGE, AND NOW THE WAGON RUNS MISSERABLY! THOUGH WE TIGHTENED UP THE BOLTS (FOR THE THIRD TIME) ENOUGH DAMAGE OCCURED TO THE TRANSMISSION AND NOW THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I PUT A NEW ONE IN WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AGAIN, AND SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO I AM AQUAINTED WITH WILL KNOW MY LITTLE FORD ORDEAL AS WELL (I'LL MAKE IT A POINT THAT THEY KNOW). HOW COULD A COMPANY THAT HAS BEEN MAKING CARS FOR SO LONG GO SO DAMM ASTRAY? SOME ONE TOLD ME THAT FORD SPELLED IN REVERSE STANDS FOR: "DRIVER RETURNS ON FOOT."...DROF *LA

THE TIRE HAS A CRACK ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TIRE EDGE WHERE THE FLAT MEETS THE SIDE. NOW THE TIRE WON'T HOLD AIR. THE GROOVES OF THE TREAD ARE STILL 3/16 OF AN INCH DEEP SO THERE ISN'T THAT MUCH WEAR TO THE TIRE. WE DIDN'T TAKE IT TO A FIRESTONE DEALER BECAUSE WE KNOW THIS PARTICULAR TIRE ISN'T ON THE RECALL LIST THAT WE KNOW OF. YOU CAN SEE THE STEEL BELT. WHAT SHOULD WE DO IN THIS SITUATION?

LATCH FOR HATCHBACK POPS OPEN. LIFTGATE LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON WHEN HATCH IS CLOSED, AND IF IT'S OPENED LIGHT STAYS ON. DEALER DISCONNECTED CABLE. OUT OF 3 REPLACED LATCHES NONE OF THEM WORKED CORRECTLLY. MANUFACTURRE DOESN'T MAKE THE PART ANYMORE, SO LATCH DOES NOT WORK THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL MODEL FOR VEHICLE.*AK

TOTAL REPAIRS 3400.00 AT A TIME WHEN MONEY IS VERY SCARCE AS I AM RETIRED AND ON A VERY LIMITED INCOME. I EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN SMALL REPAIRS, BUT WITH TAKING CARE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE LOW MILEAGE, I BELIEVE THE AXELS/ BRAKES AND TRANSMISSION ARE VERY PREMATURE AND MAYBE THE A/C. AT 37168 MILES, THE CAR SHOULD BE RUNNING LIKE NEW.*AK
