2001 Ford Taurus review from North America
"My Taurus is my first and last Ford"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gas pedal moves unexpectedly, engine slows down, then theft light comes on; it happens at all speeds and weather conditions. Sometimes all the warning lights will come on and the car dies. I'm barely able to start it. Local Ford mechanics cannot find the problem nor duplicate it. I'm certainly at a loss what to do.
General comments?
For the first year I owned the car, it ran terrifically.
