1996 Ford Taurus review from North America
"The Ford Taurus is a horrible vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In Feb of 2008, I purchased a 1996 Ford Taurus. "what was I thinking?"
The second week of having this vehicle the service engine light came on and it was hard for the car to change into second gear on certain instances.
I replaced the 02 sensor, sparks, and wires.
Soon after there is definite transmission problems.
Specialist indicates repair is $2500 at the least.
Within a six month period I sell my car for $500.
General comments?
My advice stay away from Ford vehicles.
