Taurus

  • 75,000 miles
I have a 2005 Ford Taurus. Whenever there is moderate to heavy rainfall, water leaks into the passenger side under the dash, soaking the floor and the blower motor will not work. While driving the windshield fogs over and I cannot get the blower to turn on, causing visibility issues while driving on the road. This is happening to a lot of people, this should be investigated and a recall issued.

It was raining... I had the windshield wipers on. Parked and went to turn off wipers. Would not turn off, and began to smoke. I removed fuse. Replaced fuse... began to smoke again. Windshield wiper motor blown. Now I have noticed that car is having difficulty shifting. Today I had a diagnosis done, transmission needs replaced.
