Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)DOOR LATCHES GET STUCK OPEN AND DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE, OR WILL UNLATCH AND SWING OPEN WHILE DRIVING. I CURRENTLY OWN TWO 2007 FORD TAURUS VEHICLES AND THIS HAS HAPPENED CONSISTENTLY WITH THOSE TWO, PLUS MY PREVIOUS TAURUS'- A 2003, 2005 AND TWO 2006 TAURUS'.
IN COLD WEATHER MY DRIVER DOOR WAS WILL NOT CLOSE AND LOCK. THE LOCKING MECHANISM BECOMES USELESS. IF I SLAM THE DOOR IT JUST BOUNCES FROM THE IMPACT. (I READ ANOTHER COMPLAINT AND REALIZED I HAVE THE SAME ANNOYING PROBLEM). I TRIED WD40 TO LUBRICATE LOCK, BUT IT SEEMS WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP THE LOCK STARTS WORKING AGAIN.
PAINT IS PEELING ALL OVER
I AM VERY SCARED OF MY CAR RIGHT NOW AND I FEEL LIKE IT IS GOING TO FALL APART ON ME WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. THE ACCELERATOR STICKS AN DOES NOT WANT TO LET GO TO SLOW DOWN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD TAURUS. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V040000 (STRUCTURE)HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. UPDATED 1/12/16 *CN
DRIVERS FRONT AND PASSENGER REAR DOOR DO NOT STAY SHUT IN COLD WEATHER, I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL ON LATER MODELS OF FORD TAURUS BUT NOT MY 2007. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING WHEN IT'S VERY COLD AND THE DOOR WON,T SHUT AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH ONE HAND HOLDING THE DOOR SHUT, AND I BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT FORD NEEDS TO BE AWARE OF. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 20+ TIMES ! I HAVE TRIED EVERY KIND OF SOLUTIONS THAT I FOUND ON THE INTERNET BUT NOTHING WORKS. *TR
IN EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER LAST WINTER, THE CAR DOORS WOULDN'T CLOSE. THE LATCHES WOULDN'T CATCH. DRIVING WAS DANGEROUS WITH KIDS IN THE CAR. IN LOOKING ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND THAT MANY HAVE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM OR DEFECT. I HAVE TO PAY OVER $1,400 TO HAVE IT FIXED. I EVEN CALLED FORD HEADQUARTERS. NO LUCK. *TR
