Ford Taurus Reliability through December 31, 2012
General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Mar | 2010 | 109000 | 200 | Had to have the front cylinder head replaced. First, it was thought it was the spark plug coil, but problem continued. Found to be a burnt head on the front part of the engine. I have a Ford warranty that paid $3,000 of it. 108,000 miles |
| Sep | 2010 | 113000 | 125 | Driving and the low A/F light goes on. Week before A/F was completely full. I open the hood A/F overflow empty. Lid was tight. Car checked and cannot duplicate. Replaced A/F and has not leaked. Extra A/F carried trunk from now on. |

Kept hearing a screaming sound when turning the car off. Also, there was a burning plastic smell from the vehicle. First it was the harmonic balancer, then the pulley. Found out it was the other timing chain tensioner. Engine scares me! |
| May | 2011 | 119500 | 0 | Engine light on. It is possibly a coil on plug, but not for sure. Changed around plugs and have it back to see if problem comes back. Car shakes and RPM's drop really low. Car is to jerk more when accelerating. |
| Jul | 2011 | 121000 | 450 | Car shakes and stutters. Clunks when it is put in reverse. Dealer says nothing wrong car did not do this a few months ago. Very frustrating! |
