Ford Taurus 2006 Seats Front Assembly Head Restraint Review #10136590

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 11, 2005.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT . subject: head rest construction in new 2006 ford focus in our circumstances, the driver's side head rest is angled forward acutely so that it strikes on a horizontal line across the back of the head. the head rest forces the head downward into the chin, and most irritatingly creates a continuing distraction to the driver who feels as if someone is constantly playing with their hair. we were advised that there is "nothing" that the dealership can do to correct the problem as it is a design issue given the dealership by ford motor co. however, looking at other focus models, confirms that of the two head rest in every vehicle, one is predominately "pushed forward" of the others, and that the forward angles in all examined head rest is different. we have told that the problem is not repairable, but can be modified. further discussions with our dealership consumer affairs manager have brought to our attention that this is a common problem seen not just in the focus, but in other ford models as well. it appears that the usual fix is to simply swap head rest - i was also told that in some cases the head rest are simply turned around the other direction to resolve the customer complaint - or removed altogether. although we have not experienced an accident as a result of this concern, my wife has reported one "incident" in which she almost backed into a vehicle because she knee-jerk reacted to reach back to move away "something crawling on my head." i am concerned that what appears to be a defect that can be randomly worse on some vehicles more than others, creates a distraction while driving that may precipitate an accident. further, dealership solutions may expose consumers to solutions that solve the problem, but defeat the purpose of the head rest as a safety device are you aware of the problem, and is any effort being made to recall the defective head rest and replace them with ergonomic replacements? thank you. *nm .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Taurus 2006 problem was reported in CLEARWATER, FL.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Dec 11, 2009.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i was driving home on the highway when my accelerator became stuck halfway down. it would not stick if i tapped it, but re-stick again. i took it to the dealer they said that the cruise control cable had become bound around the accelerator causing it to stick. first incident was october 2007, now in december 2009 again. i was charged roughly 100 to detach the cruise control cabling. ford agreed (reluctantly) to repair the cable so my cruise would work. roughly 50,000 miles later my accelerator became stuck again. this time it would not unstick - tapping the pedal only made acceleration stronger. brakes barely worked stomped to the floor. repeated accelerator pedal sticking in open position is extremely dangerous and unacceptable. car is out of warranty and i am again stuck with the bill - lucky i did not crash. could have been much worse if it began to stick while accelerating hard. just all of a sudden this happened - both times. one second the gas pedal works fine, then bam, its stuck. once stopped i placed the car into park and it revved up to 4000 rpm. would not re-start with accelerator down. had to tow to unhelpful and unconcerned dealer - will never own a ford again. i will tell everyone i know about this horrible defect. not once, but twice! *tr duplicate to 10207016.Mileage was 82000 miles.

(i had not turned on the cruise control and there were no indications it was on). i then stepped on the brake and to my amazement the car attempted to accelerate. i depressed the brakes further, but the engine revved higher to maintain speed and i went thru the red light! attempting to stop the car, as another traffic light with stopped cars was immediately ahead, i had to swerve to the right turn lane and went thru another red light barely avoiding crossing traffic. not thinking to turn off the ignition, i depressed the parking brake, continued to hit the main brakes and the car began to slow (speed) although the engine revved uncontrollably. i finally pulled to the side and shut off the engine. i attempted to restart the car and during 4 successive tries it immediately revved to over 4,000 rpm. on the 5th try the start was normal and i was able to drive home. i am taking the car to the dealer tomorrow morning to have the problem diagnosed and corrected immediately! this could have been a disaster for both myself, my car and those innocent pedestrians/fellow drivers on the road at the time. *tr.Mileage was 63000 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Apr 11, 2009.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i was driving to work about to pull in to my office parking lot. i pulled my foot off of the accelerator so that coast into the parking lot when i noticed the car increasing in speed instead of slowing down. i had to brake hard just to keep the car under control, but it was going much faster than it should in a parking lot. as i tried to park, the rpms increased to dangerous levels. i put the car into park and the rpms were still very very high. i then shut the car off. i felt scared and grateful that i did not have an accident. the same morning, i took it to the dealer - thinking i might have to tow it, but it started and the rpms seemed okay. i got halfway to the dealer and it began to do it again as i was driving down an open road. i don't know why, but i tapped the accelerator and the rpms returned to normal. i described all of this to the dealer. they worked on it and could not find the problem. it acted up for them also. i picked the car up that afternoon with no other solution other than to tap the accelerator to get it to stop. stupidly, i drove it for weeks this way before i found my own solution. my cruise control also stopped working. the problem is mechanical, i had my wife push the gas while the car was in park so that i could see what was actually moving under the hood of the car. i found some little control device (for lack of a better word) that was sticking. a ball and joint on the device would get disconnected from the action happening when you press the gas and cause the rmps to spike. i simply secured the ball and joint connection with wire fishing leader from my tackle box. no problems in almost 1 year. i didn't think more of it until all of the news about toyota. not sure about the date. - about 1 year ago..Mileage was 60000 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 28, 2010.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . i was driving down interstate 1-96 in michigan. while passing a semi-truck, we were going 70 mph. the 2006 ford taurus se i was driving failed to accelerate. i laid on the gas pedal, but it acted like the car was stuck in neutral. the engine roared, and the rpm's soared to over 6,000. we were just coasting to a stop, and were nearly rear ended from behind. we got into the right lane, nearly hitting the truck we were trying to get over for. it took everything i could do to get the car over into the right lane. the car died just as i got it over, still close to being hit by traffic whizzing by. i turned it off and then restarted. the engine started, but we could not go into drive. aaa had it towed to a nearby shop in south lansing. they told me the next day that the transmission had been "shot". the tranny fluid was burned badly. they said i needed it totally replaced at a cost of nearly $4,000. i had never had any problems before this with the car. and there were no warning signs leading up to the failure. the mechanic said it was a "sudden failure" of the transmission. he said he had seen other ford taurus's with similar problems. the car only has 65,000 miles on it. i called ford and was told to have it towed to a dealership. we did that and were given the same result. i am complaining because i feel ford needs to issue a recall. there are hundreds of stories like this online regarding the transmission in the 05, 06 taurus. will it take someone getting hurt before something is done? i feel i am very lucky to be alive. i do not feel safe driving a ford anymore. a recall should be made so people are aware this could happen. i never even knew there were issues with these transmission/torque converters until i did some research online. your organization needs to investigate this before someone is killed or injured (perhaps this is already the case). i will not rest until this issue has been resolved and i know these bad transmissions are off the road! *tr.Mileage was 65690 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Aug 27, 2010.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . 2006 ford taurus - while driving 30-40mph, the car began to accelerate without any pressure on the gas pedal. when attempting to stop the car, the brakes were pushed to the maximum and the car stopped half way into the intersection. after continuing through the red light, i put the car in neutral and the rpm continued to 4000-5000 until i shut the power off. when i restarted the car, the rpm immediately continued back to 5000. this is an extremely dangerous situation that i have read numerous reports and complaints. the remedy is shifting into neutral and coming to a stop--or tapping the accelerator with the foot and saying a prayer. there is no known recall available and this is a frequent complaint. there needs to be something done about this before it becomes fatal. it appears to be an issue with the cruise control that is common to many 2006 ford taurus models--even if the driver never uses the cruise control, the coil may hold the accelerator down. this can result in prolonged stopping times and distances, accidents, unexpected acceleration, and heating up brakes to the point of a fire. i urge any reader driving a taurus -- particularly the 2006 model--to take action. this is not something that fixes itself and will absolutely result in future fatalities if not addressed. *tr.Mileage was 69600 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2011.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER . since i bought this car the windshield wipers have been a problem in very hard rains or heavy snowstorms. they drivers side windshield wiper would catch onto the other one and get snagged. i would have to pull off to the side of the road and untangle them and sometimes drive real slow bending over to look out of the passengers side window. this would happen off and on during hard rains or heavy snowstorms. this year was the worst. in january or february when we had a heavy snowstorm the driver side windshield wiper would stop in the middle of the cycle and sit right in the center of the windshield. i once again had to drive in peril. this april (29th), we had another heavy snowstorm and the drivers side wiper froze again in the middle of the cycle, then it would slam all the way over onto the drivers side view mirror and get stuck there. i drove to the ford dealer and they tightened some screw on my wiper and said it was fixed. the same thing happened the next week (march 4th), in a heavy rain. i had to pull off the side of the road again and un-snag the wiper from the side-view mirror. every time this happened i was in real peril of having an accident. i couldn't see the road and was just lucky that i did not have an accident each time the wipers stopped working properly. i once again went directly to my ford dealer and they diagnosed the problem as a stripped window wiper transmission. they said the problem was not covered in my extended warranty. i was shocked since i was told that my extended warranty covered everything on the car. i had to pay $89.50 for a diagnostic then $241.98 for parts and labor. i researched problems with 2006 ford taurus sedans and found that the windshield wiper motor had a recall. i let my ford dealer know this and told me that it was not the transmission that was bad not the motor. it seems that window wiper design is faulty whether its the motor or transmission. .Ford Taurus 2006 problem was reported in BLUE SPRINGS, MO.

(now from my husband's experience) he took it on the interstate to see how high the speed would get before it topped out. eventually he had to start applying the brakes at 93 mph. for whatever reason, he wondered if the cruise control would be able to maintain a safe speed and he wouldn't have to ride the brakes at 65-70 mph. when hit the cruise control it didn't work (he realized he was riding the brakes) so he hit the brake as firmly as he could to get it down to a slower speed to invoke the cruise control. once he got down to about 50-60 mph he hit the cruise again and it came on but the car was still slowly accelerating. he hit the brakes to turn the cruise off and felt the gas pedal pop up and hit him on the side of the right foot and then the car started slowing down. we still have to drive it (he does because i?m terrified to get behind the wheel) and it does the same thing. now he just taps the gas pedal until releases and tries not to press the gas pedal to deep. *tr.Mileage was 139100 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Oct 03, 2008.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . recurring - intermittent speed control problem from 2008 to present (3/1/12). engine unintentionally accelerates when the vehicle is driven over a bump or depression in the road, especially when driven over a railroad track crossing. once it starts to accelerate out of control, applying the break will only have a slight effect for as long as pressure is put on it, once i remove my foot from the break, the engine will continue to accelerate despite the fact that no pressure is being placed on the gas pedal; however hitting the gas pedal (down to the floor) several times corrects the problem. engine also unintentionally accelerates when the break is applied abruptly. the only way to control the car once this happens is to apply intense firm pressure on the break and then quickly placing the car into park. the engine will still continue to race in the parked position; however hitting the gas pedal several times seems to correct the problem. i did previously attempt to adjust the cruise control buttons to solve the problem; however that had no effect. floor mats where no where near either pedal. this problem has occurred more than a dozen times over the past 4 years. i did take it to the mechanic several times when it first happened, however the mechanic could not detect the problem and explained that they could not diagnose the issue unless it happened while they were inspecting it or test driving it. *tr.Mileage was 60250 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 31, 2012.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . after taking a right turn, the vehicle began accelerating on its own. i had to fully apply the brake to maintain control. it was terrifying. my whole body shook. i thought i would hit something because i did not think that i could stop the car. even while pushing the brake pedal all the way down and shifting into d i could not keep the car under 40 mph. the engine kept revving and the car kept gaining speed. luckily, the only light i had was green. i pulled into a parking lot and slowed the vehicle down to a stop by applying all my force to the brake. i shifted into park hoping that would keep the vehicle from moving. it caused a loud sound that sounded like an explosion and startled everyone in the parking lot. still not sure what to do, i turned the ignition off. a parking spot opened up so i turned on the ignition, that caused an even louder explosive sound. i was still terrified but i had to act - so i forced the brake pedal down as hard as i could and shifted to d and was able to navigate into the parking spot. i put the vehicle in park again and again it caused a loud explosive sound. by now i was a spectacle in the parking lot but i was just thankful that i was alive and that no one was hurt. i looked down at the gas pedal and noticed that it was fully depressed and loose. i pulled the pedal up but there was no tension to hold it up and it dropped back all the way down. i drove the vehicle back home, in much the same way - transmission in d, applying a lot of force to the brake and hoping that i would not have to stop suddenly or get pulled over for speeding since i could not get the vehicle slower than 40 mph even while pushing on the brake as hard as i could the whole trip. and when i parked the car at home, it made the same loud sound and i also heard ticking noises coming from under the hood. i am still shaken up by the incident..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 62890 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on July 14, 2011.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . this vehicle has a mind of it's own. it accelerates at a high rpm and will not stop. we have had many "near misses" running red lights and failing to stop when necessary. the dealer has attempted to fix it a couple of times and told us that the problem is common with the 2006 model taurus. after several incidents, the dealer will not cover the cost of repair as there are no recalls for this model to date. i am not sure where to go from here or if there is a way to disable the cruise control altogether. the only way to stop the vehicle is to apply heavy brake pressure, shift to neutral and shut down the engine. sometimes this will correct the problem and other times it will not. i understand that the nhtsa is investigating these vehicles for this problem. i do hope they move quickly on this before anything serious happens if it has not already. *tr.Mileage was 65000 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Apr 17, 2012.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . on or about 04/17/2012 and on 05/14/2012 i was driving my 2006 ford taurus and suddenly the vehicle acceleration seemed to have stuck in accelerated state causing the car to suddenly go faster that the approx 30 mph that i was driving. this happened without warning. the car's engine seemed to be revving and i had to apply the brakes with some force to stop the car. the first time i was able to stop at the red light with the brake pedal depressed hard, even after coming to a stop as the car still wanted to go. once the light changed to green i drove forward and began tapping the gas/brake multiple times in some hope to stop the unwanted acceleration. finally the car returned back to normal. yesterday the exact thing happened again. i was going about 30 mph on a town street when for no known reason to me the engine revved up and the acceleration caused the taurus to want to speed further. i turned off a nearby side street, depressing the brakes hard to stop. i shut off the car after i pulled over. shortly thereafter i started the taurus again but the acceleration was still going. i began tapping the gas/brakes and then the car went back to normal. i am worried as this appears to be a dangerous situation as sudden and unwanted random acceleration of my 2006 ford taurus could cause an accident, injuries or death. please help! *tr *js.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 98500 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 25, 2012.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . intermittent throttle problems. on the freeway, have had the cruise control on and it doesn't work, off and it continues to hold it's current speed. on city streets, idles at high rate, and when break released the car increases speed (i.e. went from 0 to 45mph without pressing gas peddle). i have to press break often to remain in speed limit. i am afraid the breaks will wear out too quickly with this problem. this is a safety issue, but because the car is out of warranty, ford dealership will not repair the car without charging for a diagnostic and then parts and labor. this is a defect that is apparently happening to many other vehicles and should be immediately treated as a recall before someone gets hurt!.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 69000 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Nov 14, 2012.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . beginning a few months ago (november 2012), my 2006 ford taurus has had a couple times when the vehicle will accelerate without pushing on the gas pedal. these few incidents have corresponded with my cruise control stopping to work. i notice them at lower speeds, but i cannot rule out the same issue at higher speeds because braking is harder at these speeds. the last incident was december 31, 2012 at 9:32 pm. the vehicle was traveling at 25 mph. i noticed it was hard to stop and the rpm's were not slowing down when i broke. i then had to pull over to the side of the road and put the vehicle in park. at that moment the rpms increased to 4,000 and i turned the car off. i started the car again in park and it did the same thing. the third restart, it began to increase, but when i pumped the pedal the increase stopped and it returned to normal idle rpm. upon searching google for this issue, i saw multiple reports on the nhtsa's investigation in march 2012. as a result, i am submitting this claim. the descriptions resulting in this investigation sounded exactly like my issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 98000 miles.

FORD TAURUS 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 15, 2013.FORD TAURUS 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i was driving on the interstate with the cruise control on (at 72 mph). when i exited the interstate at the exit ramp, the car had difficulty stopping. i had to press the brakes really hard to get the vehicle to stop and at first thought it was a braking issue. i had to drive through 3 traffic lights to get to the closest parking lot to stop and each time i had a very difficult time getting the car to stop and it would "jack rabbit" start and i didn't have to hit the accelerator between lights (car would go 35 mph or so). i pulled into the parking lot and put the car in park, when i did, the engine revved open and went up the 3500-4000 rpm before i could shut it off. i waited for my brother to come check the car. he hooked up the car to a computer to check for any issues and there weren't any that came up on the computer. he had me start the car and it was running in the normal rpm range. i haven't had any issues since and haven't had the car checked out since it was behaving normally. i read about the investigation on the vehicle from 2012 and noticed that the reports i read were very similar to what happened to me. i hadn't tried to use cruise control again until today and discovered that my cruise control isn't working. the "cruise" light comes on, but when i try to set the cruise control, it won't set at all. i tried turning it off and on 3 times to get it to set and it didn't work. i am planning on inspecting the cruise control cable in the near future to prevent further issues, but i wanted the nhtsa to be aware of the issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 90000 miles.
