Front windshield is slanted too much, it is impossible to wash window, and in sunny weather, reflection is bad. Because of the way it's slanted consumer can hardly see. When anything is on dashboard, windshield turns into a mirror, making it impossible to see. *ak consumer states that when it rains, the water beads on the windows.
2000 Ford Taurus visibility complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 45 of 45, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Since may of 2000 there was a problem with the starter system jamming. Consequences of down systems...such as windshield wipers, ABS, traction control, turn signals,A/C and blower. One incident LED to complete shut down of car...dead would not start. Dealer replaced two starters and then one "starter switch'. That failed as well and dealer tried to repair on 9/25/2000 and confessed they could not and that they had conferred with ford before last two repairs and they said ford knew of this problem and didn't expect a fix till 4th qtr.. They told me there is no safety issue here and I question that because my car whent into complete shut down of all systems and dealer couldn't even start it.
Now the car has 12,ooo miles, I have to wait three weeks to take it back in. This time I have these problems, the power sunroof switch works when it wants to,the power steering started to make noise, has to add fluid, again it makes more noise,last song on cd's stick. This is the iceing on the cake tonight I go to dinner,when I come out, I smelled gasoline when the car started, I thought that maybe it was another car. Went to bbest but, was gone for 25 minutes, came back started car, and again smell of gasoline. I made a appointment to take care in was given daate of sept 6. I will call thurs. I will raise cane. This car has had too many problems. I bought it with 6 miles. Very disappointed
I have had this part on order since april 2000. It is becoming a safety hazard not beeing able to see out of my rear window while driving in the endless thunderstorms the east coast has recently been experiencing.
Interior rearview mirror location causes a "blind spot" for the driver. Mirror is too low on windshield. Ford/dealer say that repositioning mirror on windshield would probably crack the windshield. *ak
