I just purchased this vehicle from a car dealer. Since I purchase my bolts to the back brakes came out. Front end is making noises especially when turning the wheel. Back window is ready to break off missing passenger side hinge to hold the window in place. Brakes squeal. Electrical system is not working properly for example the power doors do not unlock, the power seat does not adjust when you push the button, the trunk can not be opened with the key, the doors have to be unlock manually.

I am experiencing a leak (twice) in my 1999 Ford Taurus LX that leaves my passenger side floor soaked and has caused me to replace my blower motor/resistor(once thus far). I do not see a specific recall related to my make and model listed on any Ford site but I have become aware that this is an extremely common experience for Taurus owners. This defect is being passed on to the consumer unfairly, a recall should be ordered. I paid less than us$200 for my replacement parts and labor, but I hear that Ford charges upwards of $500 to fix the leak completely. If I don't have this done, I will likely be replacing parts again and/or will be exposed to mold. Please act. I have been able to find others with the same problem online such as a previous complaint : 10184014 filed concerning recall 03V087000.
