1999 Ford Taurus review from North America
"If I have another problem with this car, I will not by another Ford Taurus SE"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I don't know a lot about cars. However, I just bought my '99' Taurus SE at 94,000 miles at the end of February of this year '05'.
Few weeks ago my wheel was hard to turn and my car was leaking tremendously. My mechanic informed me that my power steering pump went out and rack and pinion. $700- fix. It seems to be having the same problem.
My car and steering wheel shake when I brake, and when I come to a complete stop my car jerks as though it wants to drive on its own.
I called Ford and asked them if there were any recalls on a rack and pinion and she apologized and told me NO!
General comments?
Overall, so far I am angry, especially when I got on the Internet to see that I wasn't the only one with this problem.
Too many, people is having this problem and it needs to be a recall. We need to do something about this. Ford need to take responsibility. Please feel free to contact me at heven08@aol.com. Thank you!
If we dont complain or take the action then who will?
