1996 Ford Taurus Owner Comments

Automatic transmission: Transmission went out at 50,600 miles due to a faulty forward piston in the transmission. Dealer replaced transmission with rebuilt transmission at vehicle owner's expense. Transmission had not been driven hard or had not pulled an excess load. Would like investigation to see if more vehicles are experiencing the same problem and to see if a recall is necessary. Suspension: Popping sound in front suspension when turning. Rough riding. Dealer said needs subframe bushings and struts (47331 miles).
