Consumer Description

I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN I FIRST SMELLED THE INTOXICATING FUMES. ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED I PROCEDED TO DRIVE ABOUT 1/8TH MILE. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR BECAME DIFFICULT TO ACCELERATE. THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR INSTANTLY WENT DEAD MAKING IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DEALERSHIP DID SAY THEY HAVE HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE 1999 FORD TAURUS, HOWEVER THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THEM. THE DEALERSHIP THAT REPAIRED MY CAR HAD ANOTHER CAR COME IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WHILE MY CAR WAS THERE.
