- My brother has a '89 Ford Taurus with a 3.0 litre/Automatic. It's on
- its' 3rd transmission. The original owner had a transmission replaced
- under warrantee. The transmission seems to "slip" in 2nd gear. In
- each case, the transmissions put in were from the factory and replaced
- at the dealership. (they were all "updated" to the latest technical
- bulletin changes). The car currently has under 60k miles and was owned
- by a very conservative driver previously who had all scheduled work done
- at the ford dealership.
-
- Has anyone had the same problems with Taurus transmissions or is this
- an isolated incident? Anyone know of any technical bulletins mentioning
- transmission problems?
