#405 of 474 Re: does anyone answer our questions?? [harveyc] by ceecee Oct 23, 2005 (10:42 am)
Replying to: harveyc (Oct 22, 2005 4:06 am) Wow, Sorry to hear that. I really hope everything works out for you, and you and the kids will be sitting in the car soon. How come so long to repair?? Look at it this way...if that's the only thing to repair, you still got a deal considering the milleage...
#406 of 474 Water Leak by bobs05coupe Oct 24, 2005 (3:13 pm)
My brother has a 99 Sable Wagon with 35,000 miles on it. He's the 2nd owner. It has a water leak and the passenger side floor gets wet. Any ideas where the water is entering the car at?

Replying to: bobs05coupe (Oct 24, 2005 3:13 pm) It's likely the heater core. When you touch it with your hand is it in fact water or could it be antifreeze? If it's the heater core, it's a pain in the *ss to do. Never done it on a tauris, but once took me 8 hours to do....

#411 of 474 Temp guage stays on cold, coolant down 3 qts by dralph Nov 12, 2005 (8:42 am)
Significant other arrived last night in her 97 Taurus wagon, with 3.0 Vulcan engine. She states that coolant guage never moved off cold, at bottom of guage range, except when off the four lane (~72 mph in cold air), in town, when it rose to more normal reading. We added about 3 qts of coolant mix this am. Any thoughts as to what may be going on? Themostat stuck open? Thanks. Dave R

Replying to: bobs05coupe (Oct 24, 2005 3:13 pm) I had a similar problem. Does this occur after it rains? Did you recently change your cabin air filter? Depending on how everything was put back, rain can come in through that opening and leak under the carpeting on the passenger-side floor.

Replying to: 97tauruswagon (Oct 24, 2005 4:25 pm) I am having the same problem with my 2003 Taurus. First thought is that the drains were plugged and causing overflow into the air vent above the heater box, but they are not. Have no idea where to go now...

Replying to: 73ghia (Dec 11, 2005 8:51 am) If you own a 2003 Ford Taurus the odds are very good that you already have, or are just about to have your Defrost Blower Motor go out.   We noticed a puddle of water on the passenger side floor very soon after we bought the car. It turns out that due to a design defect, water can get into the heater system and ends up on the floor. We took the car to the dealer twice (under warranty) to have this addressed. What the dealer didn’t tell us- is that the blower motor and resistor wind up sitting in a puddle of water.   You don’t need to be an electrical engineer to figure out what happens next. This week the weather turned cold and the blower motor burned out. Back to dealer, 3rd time, charged nearly $300 to replace the blower motor. They told us sorry, not a warranty issue!   Ford has issued at least 2 TSBs on this, and they know it is a design issue. There hasn’t been a recall so they tell you to get lost.   If you have a 2003 Taurus, this will probably happen to you. If it already has do us all a favor and file a complaint with the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. Link below:   http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/   You will need your VIN # to complete the process, but aside from that it is easy.   If enough people complain, they will make Ford issue a recall and correct this under warranty.
