2001 Ford Taurus SE review from North America
"Excellent car at a reasonable price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems.
General comments?
This is the third Taurus Station wagon that I have owned, the previous cars were 1987 & 1996. I put about 130,000 km on each of the other cars with no unusual problems, front brakes had to be rebuilt but all the other work was minor. The 2001 car has proved to be comfortable, handles well, good brakes and the Vulcan engine is completely reliable.
It has the best roof rack of any car, and when the back seats are folded down I can sleep in the back.
