The engine just stalls without any warning while driving and will not restart for awhile. I called Ford, but the lady told me they are not technicians at the call center so they can't assist; even after I told them that I took the car to a Ford dealership and their scanning didn't reveal anything. The issues happens 5 times over two months.

The driver side and passenger side door locks do not work with the key fob. At times they appear to be locked, but are not. This occurred after a recall where the interior door handles were replaced. It did not do it at the dealership so it could not be fixed under warranty. Now my car will not start. It started, then died and it cranks, but does not start. Eventually the battery dies. It acts like it is not getting fuel. The fuel pump assembly was replace (13S04) in July of 2014. There is a recall of the fuel pump control module (16S31) for cars 201301015, but mine is not one of them. It should be!

The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 118690. Researched the problem and saw that there had been a recall report back in 2015 pertaining to the steering modual failing.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Taurus. The contact stated that the steering wheel became very difficult to maneuver. The contact pulled over at a fuel station and left the vehicle parked until that evening. The contact then drove the vehicle home. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who advised that the vehicle be taken to a dealer due to several failure codes populating. The independent mechanic was unable to repair the failure. The dealer (sutton Ford Lincoln, 21315 central ave, matteson, il 60443) diagnosed that there was an electrical computer failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 85,000.

Electrical seems to spin every once and a while, as well as a major spin every six months, perhaps year now. Even new, vehicle had a type of electrical "reset", a message would show something about the language has been reset.., et cetera. The vehicle now will show "charging system failure" light as well as a language reset. I feel that something is taking the vehicle into a different "set", or idea..., perhaps a foreign electrical involvement is my upfront concern. When I try and simply inquiry Ford regarding this, ... it is for sure when it happens... (somehow). Ford at the dealership appears not to notice anything, as if it is fine..., that even brand new with only 1000 miles on it, they did not see any concern. I had brought it up to them many times, but things get a little 'wind', or whirley, ... like it has a cap, or an odd mischief to it. I'm worried that some day, while with it, or needing it, that it will have that "lights out" problem, where it just seems like someone "killed" it, or it is a little dark to even bring up to people. (ike) iko, ike, ikz message appears on the center console screen, it shows before starting it. It seems that Ford does not see this with what they see, or with their eyes, but it has been a bothersome thought, .. washing motor appears to be lost already at a low mileage, and I am figuring, that since it is new, that this is to blame. 1C1C1ccc 1C1C1ccccc 1C1C1ccc 1C1C1C1ccc 1C1C1C1C

Why the vehicle is in motion the vehicle tents to sputter and decelerate losing all power the vehicle then comes to complete stop in the movie line of traffic you have to turn the vehicle off and then turn the vehicle back on to actually get speed to move out of the way this has become a very serious safety issue in the operator of the vehicle. This mostly happens when the vehicle is in motion while traveling at speeds between 50 to 65 miles per hour the vehicles come to almost a complete stop in the movie line of traffic

Takata recall 2013 Ford Taurus... it's only February of 2017 and I have had this problem three different times this year alone. The car starts very very rough. Half of the time it doesn't start. The vehicle has stalled on me while in motion going down city streets. It has been in the shop twice this year to repair/find the problem. Still no results. Even when the car does start I am afraid to drive it because it will and has stalled on me in traffic. Automotive shop told me it was a bad fuel pump relay. I paid to have that replaced. Not even a week later, only six days later the car stalls again. I took it back to the shop where they got it running again for free. But only temporarily. Couple weeks later at the most and I'm right back to where I started. Car will not start. If it does start it will stall immediately once I am in motion. This vehicle is only three years old and there is no excuse for it not being on the road. This is safety hazard. I cannot comfortably drive my car to and from work without worrying about it stalling and getting rear-ended. It will not be a good day when this causes an accident.

While driving 75 mph on an interstate, I lost the power steering and was able to get the vehicle to the side of the road, a red warning message to service power steering now came on, at the same time turn signal would not work and traction control warning light came. Since it was the weekend and I was driving home for christmas I still drove the car home. I now have the car at dealership, and being told no recall on this car. But there is a recall on others for same issue. I don't have the cost yet but tried to call Ford customer service and they are close for the holiday. Wait to see what's next. Mileage on the car was 60,070.

- Forsyth, MO, USA

Driving on freeway when the engine warning light came on and lost all control of steering. Had to stop in middle of road when a bystander came by and helped me get it to the side. Then had it towed to my house. Found out it was electric steering had gone out. Could have caused serious accident. Called Ford and they said there was no recall for my car. Will have it towed to Ford dealer where I will probably have to pay big bucks to get it fixed.

- Canton, MI, USA

Power steering failed and caused vehicle to be very difficult to continue properly around a bend in the road. Simultaneous with this failure, the traction control system sent up an alarm and the turn signals stop working and the lever has to be held in place to make the indicators work.

Positive battery terminal connection corrodes at an incredibly high rate. Connections are poorly engineered and break away causing loss of power. Because of poor connection the alternator will not sufficiently charge batter. This could lead to loss of power steering and brakes while driving. If you search online there are numerous complaints.

My Taurus symptoms are, lose of power in lower gears(1,2,3). When accelerating from a stand still, the car hesitates. And now the car has a crank no start issue and I smell fuel. My my touch is a little slow but my reverse cam is upside down and some times doesn't show a view at all. Other then that, my Taurus has been great and reliable. I hope Ford finds away to address these issues before they lose a loyal costumer

I have 2013 Ford Taurus at sam galloway Ford in fort myers Florida, they called me and said my E.T.B electronic throttle body needs to be repaired/replaced and it will cost $750 out the door. I started doing some research for cheaper cost and I came across other Ford with this same problem that was recalled, made a few calls to Ford and they said my VIN number doesn't qualify my car for that recall. This is a very dangerous problem, the car will lose throttle in the middle of traffic. This seems to me a issue and problem with a number of Ford vehicles and just because mine doesn't fall under the VIN, it's still a Ford and the etb is a problem for Ford vehicles. Please make this a recall! etb is a problem that needs to be fixed for any Ford that it happens to! this has happened several times to me since I had the car and it's only been a two months. To dangerous to be on the streets to drive and needs to be fixed!
