  Disappointed - 2009 Ford Taurus
  By bemon - June 19 - 2:06 pm

  I picked up a used 2009 Taurus limited in December 2014. As of June 2015 its been in the shop 4 times, and has totaled over 4k in repairs. Its racked with electrical gremlins, has required multiple sensor and gasket replacements and worst of all a timing chain job. Im the second owner, and it has lest than 100,000 km on the clock. I made the poor decision to finance this car, so Im stuck and can only continue to throw money at it and hope Ive seen the last of my problems. Its a comfortable car that gets compliments, but its had so many problems I feel nervous driving it.

  Six speed equals awfull ride - 2009 Ford Taurus
  By James - October 13 - 8:11 am

  As a die hard blue oval fan this is very hard to write.Let me give you a little history about me and Ford. My first car ever was a white Ford Taurus in high school/college, then a F-150 king ranch pickup in the Marine Corp, when the gas prices went up I got a ford 500. I know own a 09 Taurus limited AWD and it is the worst car i have ever owned. The six speed transmission is pathetic at best constantly sifting and the shifts are not smooth by any means, I have had several people ask me if there was something wrong with my car when they were riding with me.. Why did ford get rid of the CVT ???and ruin the car with the six speed. Its so bad Im getting rid of the car and it has 9753 miles!!

  So close, but with annoying flaws - 2009 Ford Taurus
  By Ted in NH - September 28 - 12:40 pm

  Driving position is one of worst I have had, pedals too close, steering wheel too far, lack of seat side support, low beams are terrible, bad torque steer, subject to wind gusts, noisy engine under acceleration, whiny transmission shifts that passengers ask about, radio display disappears unless you have the dash display up full, cant rest arms on rests and reach steering wheel but cant reach the 10 and 2 wheel positions because wheel is so far away, you end up leaning forward to reach the top of the wheel to turn, pushing the wiper sqirter can turn on signal lights or brights, most anoying is the intrusion of the front wheel wells into the foot wells - uncomfortable
