Power Train · at 133,000 miles · reported Jun 16, 2019
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…

Power transfer seals leaking-(Ptu)--common problem for many years on 4WD ford vehicles. Safety related as leaking transmission and gear oil leak onto hot exhaust makes smoke that enters cabin thru HVAC system. Should be a campaign or recall action!!!!!

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.

Steering · at 79,500 miles · reported Sep 24, 2018
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.
Steering · at 65,000 miles · reported Sep 2, 2017
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.
