Taurus 6-cyl

  • 79,000 miles
I had driven my car in the am and it would not start in the afternoon. I called for a tow on Monday, after the holiday. The symptoms presented at the time of failure were: The car did not start, and the anti-theft light was blinking. The car was jumped and the vehicle was brought in for service. The dealership could not find any problems. Today, the car stopped working again, same issues. This time I did not allow the car to be jumped. Instead, it was towed to the dealer who was able to run a better diagnostic which appeared to be the alternator, but it could also be the computer. In researching the issue on my own, this seems to be a major problem with Ford cars and has been for years. Some were driving when the car just 'shut down. The following are just a few of the complaints that I've found. www.fordtaurus.net/forums/viewtopic.php"F=37&T=13438&P=101835#P101835 townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.F110E23townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.F110E23 www.Ford-forums.com/engine-drivetrain/2000-Ford-Taurus-car-wont-start-anti-theft-device-blinks-T31244.html townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.F110E23 townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.F0ce673/204#msg204 townhall-talk.edmunds.com/webx?229@@.F0ce673/204 answers.yahoo.com/question/index"qid=20070823101809aaeoyae www.carcomplaints.com/Ford/Taurus/2002/engine/engine_fails_to_start_when_warm.shtm. please note, one report on one website has had over 600 views.
