2005 Ford Taurus SEL review from North America
"Got my $10,000 worth and then some"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Was a great car. Purchased with 30,000 miles on the clock and bailed out at 122,000 when the shift solenoids went in the transmission.
Was smooth sailing for almost 100,000 miles.
Stitching on leather seats dried from the sun and turned color and frayed and separated from the leather.
General comments?
Was always a reliable mode of transportation.
Quick and agile.
Until the day it got stuck in second gear and wouldn't shift.
Even though it was 7 years old, the styling looked rather current.
