FIRST, I WANT TO SAY THAT THIS VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED AND SERVICED ON A REGULAR BASIS. IT WAS A PLEASANT SUMMER DAY BUT HAD MORE OF A AUTUMN FEELING WHETHER. I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN EAST TENNESSEE, I HAD JUST MERGE ONTO THE INTERSTATE AND HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR MAYBE 10 MINUTES. I SLOWED DOWN FOR TRAFFIC TO ABOUT 40 MPH AS I CREST A HILL. WHEN I STEPPED BACK ONTO THE GAS (GOING DOWN HILL NOW), I FELT THE CAR SHIFT INTO 4 GEAR. I THEN FELT, AND HEARD A POP SIMILAR TO A BLOWOUT, BUT IN REALITY IT WAS THE CAR SLIDING OUT OF GEAR. I HAD ONLY MANAGED TO REACH ABOUT 50MPH WHEN THE CAR STOP ACCELERATING, (I PUT ON MY HAZARDS) I WAS TRYING TO COAST TO A SAFE PLACE, BUT THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS MADE NO PLACE TO PULL OFF. WITHIN 5 SECONDS, A CAR TRAVELING BEHIND ME WAS BUMPED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER AND WAS KNOCKED INTO ME. MY FORD MECHANIC SAYS THE TRANSMISSION IS SHOT AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT OUT (WAS THAT THE POPPING NOISE? I WONDER.) $3500 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE GOOGLE 05 TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS OVER 500 PROBLEMS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER FORD WAS TRYING TO SAVE A FEW DOLLARS, OR IF THEY WERE TRYING TO SAVE FUEL MILEAGE, BUT THIS TRANSMISSION IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER FORD IF THIS PROBLEM DOESN'T GET RESOLVE BY FORD RECALLING THESE TRANSMISSIONS. LAST LAUGH, INSURANCE COMPANIES WILL REPAIR ANY CAR TO THE QUALITY IT WAS JUST BEFORE THE WRECK (NO BETTER, NO WORSE.). SINCE MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT BEFORE THE CAR WRECK, THEY CAN REPLACE IT, ERGO... THE INSURANCE COVERS THE BODY WORK, BUT WILL NOT COVER THE TRANSMISSION. MY QUESTION TO FORD IS DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE YOU FIX YOUR ERRORS. MY FATHER WORKED AT FORD FOR 22 YEARS; HE WOULD BE.... REALLY DISAPPOINTED TO SEE WHAT FORD PASS FOR QUALITY. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD TAURUS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD EXHIBIT RELATIVELY HIGH ENGINE RPMS AND WOULD ACCELERATE WITHOUT DRIVER INTENT AT INTERVALS OF TEN MINUTES. IN ADDITION, THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD BECOME UNUSUALLY HARD AND RESISTANT WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT CONFIRMED ON ONE OCCASION WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 30 MPH, HE CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE DUE TO THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY AN ENGINEER; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,296 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 103,296.
I HAVE A 2005 FORD TAURUS WHICH IS EQUIPPED WITH A "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" FEATURE. ACCORDING TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL, THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO DETERMINE IF A CHILD WEIGHS ENOUGH FOR THE AIRBAG TO BE DEPLOYED AND IF NOT THE AIRBAG IS SUPPOSED TO BE DISABLED AND A LIGHT NEAR THE HEAT/AIR CONTROLS WILL LIGHT UP STATING "PASS AIRBAG OFF." THIS FEATURE WAS ONE OF THE DECIDING FACTORS WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. RECENTLY I HAD AN ACCIDENT WHEN MY VEHICLE LEFT THE ROAD STRIKING A UTILITY POLE. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED WITH MY BARELY 60 POUND DAUGHTER IN THE FRONT SEAT. WE ALL KNOW THAT AIRBAGS ARE DANGEROUS, HOWEVER MANY PARENTS DEPEND ON THIS SPECIAL FEATURE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF THE AIRBAG WHEN THEIR SMALL CHILD OR CARSEAT IS IN THE FRONT.
ON OCTOBER 28,2005 I WAS VACATIONING IN HILTON HEAD S.C. I RENTED A 2005 FORD TAURUS FROM AVIS RENTAL AT THE SAVANNAH GEORGIA AIRPORT. ON OCTOBER 30, AT APPROXIMATELY 10:40 AM I WAS PROCEEDING WESTBOUND ON U.S. 278 TOWARD HIGHWAY 170. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 50 - 55 MPH IN A 55 MPH ZONE. AT THAT TIME A 2002 KIA 4 DOOR CAME OFF PRIVATE PROPERTY OF THE ST. GREGOREY'S CATHOLIC CHURCH ACROSS THE TWO WESTBOUND LANES. I ACTIVATED THE BRAKES AND SWERVED TO MISS THE VEHICLE HOWEVER WE COLLIDED. MY VEHICLE HIT THEIRS BROADSIDE AT MY ESTIMATE OF 25 - 30 MPH AT IMPACT. THE IMPACT WAS TO THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THEIR VEHICLE. AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION, THE ANTI- LOCK BRAKES ON MY VEHICLE LOCKED SO I WAS UNABLE TO STEER OUT OF THE PATH OF THE KIA. AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION NEITHER THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON MY VEHICLE. THE DRIVER OF THE KIA WAS AIRLIFTED TO SAVANNAH, GEORGIA AND HER HUSBAND WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE SAME HOSPITAL BY GROUND AMBULANCE. MY WIFE WAS TRANSPORTED BY AMBULANCE TO CAROLINA COASTAL HOSPITAL IN BLUFFTON, S.C. I SENT THIS INFORMATION ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO BUT HAVE HAD NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF IT BEING RECEIVED SO I AM RESUBMITTING IT. *JB
ON 10/28/05 I RENTED A FORD TAURUS AT THE AIRPORT IN SAVANNAH, GEORGIA WHILE VACATIONING IN HILTON HEAD, SOUTH CAROLINA. ON 10/30/05 I WAS DRIVING WESTBOUND IN THE SLOW LANE ON U.S. 278, A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY DIVIDED BY A 40 -60 FT GRASS DIVIDER IN ROUTE TO BEUFORD S.C. MY SPEED WAS ABOUT 50 -55 MPH WITH A POSTED LIMIT OF 55 MPH. ABOUT 150 FEET IN FRONT OF ME, I CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF A VEHICLE (2002 KIA) LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY OF THE ST. GREGORY THE GREAT CATHOLIC CHURCH DIRECTLY IN THE PATH OF MY VEHICLE. I APPLIED THE BRAKES HARD, SWERVED TO THE LEFT IN AN EFFORT TO STEER AROUND THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES OF THE TAURUS LOCKED UP AND I LEFT ABOUT 60 FEET OF SKID MARKS ON THE ROADWAY AT WHICH TIME I HIT THE KIA BROADSIDE AT THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I WOULD ESTIMATE MY SPEED AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION TO BE ABOUT 25 - 30 MPH. THE KIA CROSSED THE DIVIDER AND TWO EASTBOUND LANES PRIOR TO STOPPING ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE ROADWAY SHOULDER. AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION NEITHER MY AIR BAG NOR MY WIFE'S AIR BAG DEPLOYED. MY WIFE SUFFERED INJURIES TO HER SHOULDER, NECK AND KNEE. I SUFFERED INJURIES TO LEFT WRIST AND RIGHT UPPER ARM. THE FEMALE DRIVER OF THE KIA WAS AIRLIFTED TO SAVANNAH, GEORGIA FOR TREATMENT AND WAS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL ACCORDING TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY ON 11/9/05. THE MALE PASSENGER WAS TRANSPORTED BY AMBULANCE TO SAVANNAH ALSO BUT I AM UNAWARE OF HIS CONDITION. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE AND OTHER MODELS OF THIS NATURE NEED TO BE EXAMINED. THIS INFORMATION WAS NOTED ON THE ACCIDENT FORM I PREPARED FOR AVIS RENTALS AT HILTON HEAD S.C. ON 10/30/05. *NM
