2008 FORD TAURUS X Fuelpropulsion System Problems

WITHIN 24 HOURS, TWICE THE CAR SUDDENLY DISPLAYED "EMPY" FUEL GUAGE AND HAVING ZERO MILES ON THE RANGE ESTIMATOR DESPITE HAVING ROUGHLY HALF A TANK OF GAS. ONE TIME, SHORTLY AFTER DISPLAYING "EMPTY" DESPITE HAVING HALF A TANK, THE CAR CUT OFF AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

A FUEL SENSOR FAILED RECENTLY FOR THE THIRD TIME IN 3 YEARS. EACH TIME THERE WAS MORE THAN HALF A TANK OF GASOLINE ONBOARD. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE CAUSED THE ENGINE TO STOP COMPLETELY WHILE ON A FREEWAY TRAVELING AT 55 MPH.

THE ACCELERATION SPEEDS UP ON ITS ON. THE ELECTRIC COMPONENTS MIS CHARGE.

I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2010 WITH 32,000 MILES ON IT. I PURCHASED IT IN APRIL AND BY THE END OF THE FIRST SUMMER OF DRIVING IT BEGAN TO LOSE ALL POWER WHEN DRIVING SLOWLY I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TURN THE WHEEL OR ANYTHING. LUCKILY ALL TIMES IT HAPPENED I WAS IN A PARKING LOT OR AT A STOP SIGN. FORD SAID IT NEEDED A COMPUTER UPDATE WHICH WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. I PAID 66.00 FOR THE UPDATE, IT DID NOT WORK MY CAR STILL LOSE POWER SOMETIMES WHEN COASTING. MY CAR ALSO ACCELERATES WITHOUT WARNING. THIS IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE THIS IS MY MAIN VEHICLE AND I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN. FORD SAYS THERE THEY HAVEN'T WITNESSED THE ISSUE WHILE DRIVING IT SO THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. ALSO WITH IN THAT FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THIS...
