I took my 2014 ford taurus police interceptor to boggus ford in harlingen, tx. For a recall on a fuel pump sensor which the dealer said would cost nothing to replace. I had to buy the part and install it to get the vehicle there. Dumb, i know, but it was cheaper than a tow truck and i wanted it corrected by the dealer for safety purposes. During the drive there i noticed a check engine light on so i reported it. I also reported to them that the vehicle hesitates, or jerks, when driving at low to moderate speeds. They corrected the recall and charged me $145.00 for another sensor they claimed was causing the check engine light to come on and the car to jerk like it was. I drove off and immediately noticed the car was doing the same thing. I took the car back to them and they waited 2 days to tell me that the car was running and driving just fine and they could not find anything else wrong with the motor or transmission when their technician drove it. I asked him to ride with me in the car and after about 5 minutes of driving he had me pull over and turn the car off so that he could "clear all codes within the transmission." the problem continued so they talked me into taking the car home to "see if any check engine lights come on" during regular use. After doing so, to no avail, they said that the problem was transmission related and it would cost another $100.00 just to look at. I don't mind paying the fee for diagnosis but i'm hesitant to take it back to them if i may be charged for items not related to the issue. I took it upon myself to do research online and i have found others with the same exact problem that turned out to be a solenoid in the transmission. Wondering why this part hasn't been recalled if it could deem the vehicle unsafe to drive. Also, there is no dipstick to check transmission fluid otherwise i would happily check it myself.
The power steering makes noise and is slipping at certain points while the vehicle is moving. It seems to be consistent with customer satisfaction program 17b22, which was recently issued for the police utility vehicles of this same year, but did not include the sedan. This is a dangerous problem, as power steering could fail at high speeds.
On the way home after being on duty, a warning light came on that read "service advancetrak low". I reset the message and it appeared again. I deactivated the traction control and it appeared to be fine, prior to that the steering was very unresponsive and appeared to be sluggish. The following afternoon i go to get in car and message came ion dash stating "steering failure" and steering wheel would not move. The car is being towed on monday october 29 to closest ford dealer. I have been researching this problem with same model and year, and there are numerous issues the same as our police car. Even though this is a police car, we are a small town and there is little to no aggressive driving.
My car's power steering suddenly developed a fault, showing message on dash "stop safely now" along with a simultaneous message about servicing advancetrac.steering became very difficult.steering still worked, but car became very hard to turn (i am not a small man, and it was still difficult).i was able to pull to the side of the road (i was on a large city street traveling about 45 mph) and stop with some difficulty.power steering seems to have completely failed spontaneously.
