problem #1

Taurus 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 31,900 miles
My 2000 Ford Taurus SE, with 31,900 miles on it, has recently developed a six (6) inch long split in the sheet metal skin inside the right front door jam on the door piller. The split in the sheet metal is wide enough to see the interior of the door piller. This defect will be reported to my Ford dealership on January 6,2003. The defect was first discovered on January 4, 2003. I would consider this defect extremely serious since the door pillar is an important part of the vehicle's safety mechanism. Photographs have been taken of the defect and can be mailed to your office upon request.
