2013 Ford Taurus fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 5: complaints 11 to 40 of 107, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The car stalled out on the highway requiring to pull off the road, shut off, and then restart multiple times. The check engine light indicated fuel system pressure is low. There are known complaints of the fuel delivery system failing intermittently in the 2013 Taurus.
On 7/31/2022, and also about a month ago, my 2013 Ford Taurus Limited stalled out while driving and the wrench light came on. The car limped along until I could pull it over, but this could have been serious as I was on the highway doing 65mph just 2 minutes prior to it. It stalled coming up the upramp here in Phoenix. I got it into the parking lot, and gave it gas and nothing at all, the engine just sputtered as the wrench light was on. I turned it off for 2 minutes, and restarted and able to get home 4 minutes away. This is the 2nd time this has now happened, and this is a huge safety concern. Ford Taurus had recalls on the Powertrain Control Module for other years of the Taurus, but I do not want to pay for this fix as this is a Ford safety issue for my model year 2013. I could have caused an accident on the highway if this stalled like this. Who do I contact to get this looked at. I can almost guarantee it is the powertrain control module as I see it online recalled and exact same issues. This car onl has 70k miles on it and in great condition, serviced all the time. Please let me know whom I may contact to resolve this safety issue? Should I call my local Ford dealership, but I think they charge $200 for scan of the car. Thank yo for your time.

The car is stopping when at idle and at times will loose full power when driving down the road. We have replaced the mass air flow sensor, cleaned the mass flow uptake, and replaced the fuel pump driver module. We bought this vehicle from Turnpike Ford in Huntington. The 3rd party warranty showing on my loan agreement was bumper to bumper 7 years or 72,000 miles however the warranty paper stated 3 years or 36,000 miles. We have tried working with Todd Judy but they refuse to honor the warranty so my car has not been able to be repaired. They advised me I needed a new motor and transmission. We need this issue resolved it’s a high risk for us when driving the vehicle and these repairs should not be coming out of our pocket.

Engine stalling running at 10 miles a hour. Is there a recall number 20504?
I had problems with my fuel injection for almost 2 years looked it up and even took it to 3 dealerships and a full services place all saying the same thing. So I looked it up and there was a recall for it and seatbelts and airbags but my VIN# wasn't on the list. Everyone I know who got a car like mines had the recall and was fixed. I am now paying out of pocket for the airbags and my radio and back cam now is acting crazy show upside down and the radio keep going out. I need some help can't afford all these issues with my car when they are on your recall list .please if you can re-evaluate my number the back cam acts up when backing up everything is upside down. The fuel injection have problems when starting and while driving it will slow down then caught up and speed up. The airbags recently came out getting it fix by a body shop and paying out of pocket to keep my insurance from totaling it out. The seat belts keep locking up at times. Love my car please help if possible
My engine light is came on. At first it was reading that my fuel pump was going bad. I've recently replaced my fuel pump and now my engine light is back on and its reading two different codes. One is a leak with my gas cap. The other one is eletrical. My car has cut off me as if I've ran out of gas and I wasn't really out of gas. When I have someone come and bring me gas in a gas can, while pouring the gas in its leaking right out as if my thing isnt connected or I had a line thats cut. My gas meter isnt working properlu either and when I put my car in reverse all of my lights turn on and when I put it in drive they cut off. My stereo freezes and cuts on and off.
Car would shift off when stopped at light or while driving. After filling had tank car will not immediately start. Takes about 2 to 3 tries to turn over. Replaced form pump then months later replaced 2nd component in the fuel system.
The car will stall while driving or in park. We have put 2 new fuel pump modules in it and now it is doing again, needing a third replacement. It has 111,000 miles on it and the last one was put on just 6 months ago. There is a recall for 2013 taurus for the fuel pump but it doesn't show my VIN as being covered by the recall. This is dangerous. It just shuts off the engine while you are driving. I have seen other complaints that are exactly the same issue. It happens while driving and parked at any rate of speed.
The fuel pump on the car.

Vehicle brought in for non start issue. Fuel driver module replaced on 06/25/20. Now my sync is inoperable after fuel pump repair.
I fill up gas tank, try to start car and car does not start, and I have to try 2-3 times to start engine. Then check engine light will stay on until gas goes down.
There is a recall on this issue that I'm having when I went to ford they said there is no recall but I see a recall online for same issue the problem never got taking care of so I wanted to get it taking care of. Check engine light on I had it looked at the recall is same issue showing on my check engine light. Why is ford saying there is no recall when I see that it clearly shows recall and no work had been done to my vehicle to fix this issue?
2013 taurus limited with 71,300 miles would randomly stall only like 3 times though. I would have to restart it to continue on. But on 3/3/20, I was was ready to leave work and my taurus would churn but not start. The light panel and headlights came on and the battery was not dead. I had to leave it in the parking lot overnight. The next day I had to have it towed to a ford dealership. I had done the research so I knew what the problem was so I let the dealership know. Sure enough, the fuel pump module needed to be replaced at my expense of $341.
Purchased a use 2013 police interceptor. Drove to store, car won't start, sat for a while it started, drove home and parked it. Not the first time vehicle engine stalls out, engine cuts out, won't start. Is there a recall on fuel system? Can ford remedy the situation or has it been fixed already?
Vehicle in motion on expressway fails to accelerate/loss of power on acceleration vehicle time of failure 73,000 miles no in dash lights or codes. Dangerous and can pose extreme risk of vehicle crash. Took to ford dealer they informed to just get rid of it. Just purchased vehicle less than six months ago.
Vehicle emits strong odor of gasoline when setting in garage. Do not see any visible fuel leak. Afraid fumes may ignite!
Car stalled while driving later would not start would turn over but not run
The 2013 ford taurus was stalling intermittently and taken to the garage where the diagnostic code showing up was p0627, which points to a fuel pump module failure had occurred. This seems like the same issue as shown in the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v621000 but did not include my 2013 taurus and seems that it should have. Summary from the federal safety agency campaign number 16v621000: ford motor company (ford) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 ford taurus, ford flex, lincoln mks and lincoln mkt vehicles equipped with 3.5l gtdi ecoboost engines and 2013-2015 ford taurus police interceptor vehicles. A component within the fuel pump electric module (pem) may overheat causing a loss of electrical power to the fuel pump. Ford recall number for this was 16s31.
We were riding down a main road going at about 45 miles an hour when we lost power and the car began coasting but had the foot on the pedal to the floor, we pulled over when we could get to the side of the road and turned the car off, started back up but happened again so we pulled into an auto zone and they put it on machine that showed we had very little power. We towed it the next day to a mechanic and he said it was the throttle body unit. We were almost hit several times because of the way the car was acting.
Car cranks but will not start. Replace fuel control 5 times but when replaced this last time it will not start. It would die in traffic and I would have to try and get to the shoulder of the road to get it started again. Power steering assist failed indicator light comes on and I have no power steering. I'm very unhappy with this car. Bought it brand new and have talked with ford motor company but they say mine is not included in recall. 111,000 miles. Help me please! Fuel control module went out first time in 2017 and this month which is october makes 5 times replacing it.
While driving on state highway, my vehicle started losing power and acceleration. My speed was between 55-65mph and the vehicle was not overheating. The engine started shaking and making noises as well. I was able to drive about another mile before the vehicle came to a complete stop. While sitting on the side of the road at night with my kids, the vehicle continued to shake and had the tool symbol light on. When I tried to accelerate, the engine would shake more and sputter. I looked at the engine and could see it shaking with no obvious fluid leaks. After turning the vehicle off and sitting for a couple of minutes, I was able to start the vehicle and drive home. It seems like everything is back to normal but I will be contacting my ford dealership in the morning to check it.
The low oil pressure light goes off every 5 minutes. The car unexpectedly turns off and won't start. It acts like it is out of fuel.
Fuel pump control module failure. Vehicle stalled in traffic. No warning. Would not restart. There was a recall on this same issue, but my specific VIN was not included.
