I bought a 2007 ford Taurus SEL from a dealership Oct,2020 3 months after having we pulling up to a stop light and it was like the car wanted to take off by it's self and then when the light turned green we started to drive and it just shut off in the middle of traffic we had to get out and push it to the side almost got hit by the car behind us and the on coming cars I've had it serviced for tune and oil changes fuil system flush everything and they can never find anything wrong with it but a miscellaneous leak that they can not find where it's coming from and now we'll first in Sept we came home one day ate dinner then we were going to go to movies we got in the car and the car would not start the alarm sound then everything went dim and auto theft blinked and car shut off we tried starting it it would not start finally got a jump it started and a little bit and then in on November 3rd we went to leave again and it would not start it was making a ticking sound then we had to get a jump and it start and we got in the car left got around the corner then all the lights on dash board like flashed and everything went dark and car shut off had to get it jumped it started but lights never came back on and so we took it to shop next day told them what happened they could not find nothing wrong and then December 15 same thing and then long story short we had it hooked up to machine and they said something about ptu at the shop I don't know what's going on I did some research of my own and there seems to be alot of simulator issues with other people's Taurus as well
I was having problems steering my car I opened up the hood the power steering was bubbling over and was a little smoky never had a problem like this before.
Since my 2007 Ford Taurus hit the 100K mile mark, everything started failing. First it was a simple cam sensor, then radiator (X2) throttle body, (X4 each winter for 4 years in a row would just fail. Ended up replacing with an after market brand. Haven't had a problem since) now recently, with in the last 6 months, all suspension (struts, sway links, ball joints) all failed. Replaced rears once, fronts are still a problem on second new pair. Going on third pair just with in 2 months of each replacement, the struts just fail. Tried several brand. Kyb, and gabriel. All failed after only 2 to 3 months of replacing. Plus tie rods, and ends are bad. Already stuck in a good $3000 just to keep this car drivable. Wondering if it`S even worth fixing anymore at this point. Mechanics can`T explain why all of the sudden, the car`S eating struts in such short time. Nothing appears to be damaged under body. And I purposely avoid pot hole ridden side roads, and rail road crossings when I can. So it`S not like I`M being rough on the car. Never had so many problems with my 2001 Ford Taurus. Should have just kept it. :(
