Ford Taurus Sho V8 on 2040-cars
Topeka, Kansas, United States
|
This car has had a lot of work done to it. When I bought the car it suffered the fate of most of the third gen SHO. It had spun the cam gear and bent the valves. When I purchased it I welded the cams and had the entire top end rebuilt. It has all new valves, valve guides, valves seals, headgaskets, headbolts, intake gaskets, exhaust manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets, thermostat, oil pressure sending unit and serpentine belt. Within the last six months I have replaced all four tires, brakes front and back, the mass airflow sensor and the idle air control valve. I have had the cats hollowed out so the check engine light is on. I do have six extra coils for the car. The ones that are on it have been shorting out. I have been replacing them as they short. It has aftermarket 17" wheels. It has the original 5 disk cd changer. The person I bought it from had wedged cds inside and I never used it so I don't know if it works. The exterior is average for this old of a car. There are quite a few small scratches. There are a few spots of clear coat peeling and a few door dings. The interior is fairly nice the only issues are a crack in the driver seat and a cut in the passenger rear seat. The interior is all leather. There are some stains on the carpet that I never tried to get out. It has a working sunroof. The dashpad is also pulling up like all of the taurus dashes did. It is not perfect but it is not completely destroyed either. I have over $3500 in rebuilding the motor and putting brakes and tires on this car. It is rare to find one running. If you have any questions please message me. It is for sale locally also. If you are near Topeka, KS we can arrange a time for you to look at it. Buyer will have to arrange for shipping. It drives fine but will try to stall as the coils short. I just don't have the time to replace them.

Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
