Consumer Description

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE FIRST TIME WAS UNDER WARRANTY AT 23,000 MILES ON 7/23/1996. THIS SWITCH OPERATES THE HIGH BEAMS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND TURN SIGNALS. WINSHIELD WIPER MOTOR ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FRONT SWAYBAR LINKS ALSO REPLACED AT 71,000 WHEN NOTICED A BUCKLING SOUND WHEN DRIVING OVER ROAD IRREGULARITIES. I UNDERSTAND FROM OTHER TAURUS OWNERS THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION IS A WEAKNESS.
