problem #1

Dec 012013

Taurus

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

I purchased this as a program car from Ford, so it was used. Almost immediately I started having problems with fluids leaking. The rack and pinion has been replaced twice now and started going bad again about a year ago. The rack and pinion will have to be replaced a third time. THIS IS REDICULOUS & IS A DESIGN FLAW but Ford does not have it listed as a recall.
