2000 Ford Taurus SEL review from North America
"It is a great deal"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Middle trim of all 4 door panels falling off.
Rubbing noise when turning steering wheel.
General comments?
This car is a big improvement in comparison to the last model, it is faster, handles better and looks better, I love the finish of the leather interior except that the front seats have absolutely no lower back support, the lumbar support is not located in the proper position, Even with adjustable pedals, the steering wheel is to far forward to get in a good driving position, with the redesign of the steering wheel you no longer have slots at the 9 and 3 o'clock hand position.
