NHTSA opens investigation into an estimated 360k Ford Taurus sedans
Source
Photo credit: Ford March 12, 2012 By: CF staff The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it had opened a preliminary investigation in the Taurus cars from model years 2005 and 2006 after receiving 14 consumer complaints alleging incidents of a stuck throttle resulting from cruise control cable detachment. A preliminary investigation is the first step in a process that could lead to a recall if regulators determine that a manufacturer needs to address a safety issue. Reviews |

The 2002-06 models were junk
“The build sheet is the wish list of any racer: lightweight high-revving dry-sump LS7 engine; carbon-ceramic brakes; integrated coolers; true aerodynamic downforce, and a significant reduction in curb weight. This car could only come from Chevrolet, and could only be called the Z/28.” |

Actually, Spook, even I would disagree with that statement. I know plenty of people who still drive one with reasonably high mileage. When properly maintained they last just fine.
There was a minor rust issue with my friends 02 Sable thanks to NJ's liberal use of salt products, other than that standard upkeep has been limited to a replaced alternater just last week and some rotted brake lines, which isnt too bad when your car has over 140K miles on it.

So out of a gazillion made, they are INVESTIGATING a few hundred K.
Would I defend that? Nope. Let them investigate the shit out of them. And if they find something. Fix it. ======= Call it the Lincoln Apology Momentum and Employee Appreciation Sale Spectacular. Or, just....ummmm.....LAMEASS |
