I bought the car in 2013 from a dealer in South jersey with 10000 miles. After a few month's of driving I started to notice a shaking in the steering wheel when I applied the brakes. About a month later at about 23000 miles there were grinding as well. I went to the dealer and they said the would grind the roters. This was good for 3 months. I went back and they replaced all 4 roters and pads for free as I have bought many cars from them. The car now has 50000 miles and the hole broblem is starting again. A car that has 50000 miles shoul not go in for brakes three times. This looks like a disign proble and needs more attetion.

Brakes lock up and won't release. Happen 4 times since initial 8/20/14. Continue to bring it back to Ford dealer and they cannot fix.

I have a 2012 Ford Taurus sel with approximately 28,000 miles. The brakes are making a grinding noise. When I took the card to the Ford dealer, wade Ford, in smyrna ga, I was advised that the brake rotors have rusted. I was also advised that this could not be fixed under warranty. I think this is a defect in the rotors. I have never had rotors to rust. For brake rotors to rust after 2 years and 28,000 miles is an obvious safety hazard and this car should be recalled immediately. The federal government should do something about this.
