FORD TAURUS SHO 1997 car safety problem was reported on Jan 05, 2002.FORD TAURUS SHO 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . my husband and i purchased a 1997 ford taurus v8 sho in 2000. we had maintenance and oil changes performed on a regular basis and never experienced any problems until the end of december, 2002. (the total mileage on the car is approximately 64,000 miles). in late december, 2002, the car started ticking very loudly so we took it to a local mechanic on january 3, 2003, who wasn't sure why the car was ticking but he performed an oil change and flushed the engine. on sunday evening, january 5, 2003, i was driving the car and the engine just died. it locked up as if it were out of gas and i had to manually steer it to the side of the road. once the car was inspected by our local ford dealership we were informed that the engine problems are due to a cam sprocket failure. it is our understanding there are many of these failures on 1996-1999 ford taurus sho's. i believe ford should replace the defective engines before someone is hurt in a road accident. .Mileage was 64000 miles.

FORD TAURUS SHO 1997 car safety problem was reported on June 13, 2003.FORD TAURUS SHO 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM . on morning of june 13, 2003 at approximately 8:00 am, i started my car. the car started but made a clicking sound from the engine bay. i looked to see the problem and decided to take it to my local mechanic for his inspection. at first chance of inspection on june 19th the mechanic advised me that the problem seemed to be the engine and i would be better of to take to a ford dealer. i that time drove the car to place of purchase, whitmoyer ford. on friday the 20th, i was informed my whitmoyer fords service (dave) that the camshaft had slipped and had caused damage to the engine. on june 23rd i called ford motor company service (800-241-3673) and advised them of the problem. the ford motor service representative took my information and proceeded to read me a response along the line: the car was no longer under warranty and thus no assistance would be provided in repairing of the car. i asked to speak to the supervisor and was informed that the supervisor guidelines were not any different than the one provided. i have not spoken to the supervisor although i have gotten voice mails without any number to call. i have research more on my problem at http://ww2.v8sho.com/sho/changes.html and have found out that they alone have 268 camshaft failures like mine listed. from what i can determine that ford motor co. has been aware of this problem since 1997 and has not admitted to the problem. i would like ford to cover for the cost of repair of all 4 cams in the engine. the bill could be as great as $10,000 per occurrence if not repaired and preventative work performed. as of june 25, 2003 ford zone rep has not returned phone calls of whitmoyer ford. the following web site has pdf files where ford has offered, some assistance through the pa attorney general office, to a consumer but still fails to recognize the problem. *nlm .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 86000 miles.

FORD TAURUS SHO 1997 car safety problem was reported on Dec 23, 2004.FORD TAURUS SHO 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . on december 21, 2004 my 1997 ford taurus sho began making a ticking noise. two days (and about 20 miles) later, the left exhaust camshaft sprocket failed, causing the car to stall and not restart. as a result of the sprocket slipping, the no. 5 cylinder's piston was cracked due to coming in contact with an open valve (this is an interference engine). 15,000 miles ago, the left intake camshaft sprocket failed, resulting in a $2900.00 repair bill from a ford dealership. unable to afford the cost of such a repair at this time (not to mention unwilling to deal with the same ford customer service that wanted me to believe that this hardly ever happens and that i must have done something to cause it the first time), i opted to attempt the procedure myself. after finding and removing the faulty camshaft, i thought my problems were solved until i changed the spark plugs. the no. 5 cylinder plug was covered in oil, which means there is a bad piston/ring, and most likely valves. i am considering my options to repair or part the car out now. i believe this needs to be addressed immediately by ford due to the safety issues that will arise when this happens to someone on a freeway. the loss of power brakes and steering that are associated with a stalled engine could make it difficult to maneuver through traffic to a "safe" spot on the shoulder. there is quite a bit of information on this issue at www.v8sho.com (it's interesting to see so many registered failures without the acknowledgement of a problem by ford). *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 94440 miles.

Ford Taurus Sho 1997 Engine And Engine Cooling Review #10234823

FORD TAURUS SHO 1997 car safety problem was reported on Nov 01, 2000.FORD TAURUS SHO 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . vehicle description: 1997 ford taurus sho ford (fmc) has acknowledged in writing that the problem is manufacturer related, which stems from the yamaha manufactured engine used in sho models. the vehicle would rough idle after 20 mins. on the road, shake aggressively, then shut-off for days at a time in unpredictability. an authorized fmc repair center (mlm) spent over 3-mos, concurrently, working on the vehicle to no avail. see 03/01. the vehicle functioned in this manner from 11/00 (mm/yy) through 04/03, at which time i was left with no other fiscally-viable option but to arrange to have the vehicle returned to fmc- fmc would take no responsibility and place a 7year "repossession" stain on what used to be a great credit score. timeline: between 11/00 (mm/yy) and 01/01, continued calls were put into fmc regarding my "sho" vehicle. the car would shake aggressively, then shutdown in mid-travel. 01/01: i was told to take the vehicle to mlm. after describing the issue, i was told it would cost $2,200 to service the problem(s). 03/01: the issues with the vehicle were so severe; mlm requested that fmc send out a "field service engineer" to assist them. after a week fmc admitted, which was documented by mlm in writing, that fmc has had "similar problems" with "other shos in the field" and had "no positive fix for them." this suggests that fmc knew of the sho's problems and have purposefully failed/rejected to aid the victims affected. while operating the vehicle, my passengers and i would be placed at tragic and unnecessary risks, as the vehicle would shut-down w/o warning- locking up the steering and causing me to engage in "erratic" (at times) and "precautionary driving maneuvers" while on public roads in order to regain some control of the vehicle and safely steer to the side of the road or highway. this proves malicious intent and deceptive practices perpetrated by fmc. it also proves a formed pattern. wb *tr.Mileage was 77126 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FALP54N0VA. Ford Taurus Sho 1997 problem was reported in CHICAGO, IL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
