2000 Ford Taurus consumer reviews

Bought the 2000 SE Flex Fuel model from a family friend in 2023 for $500. Previously owned by their grandma who only put 88k miles on it. So far only needed a new battery and starter. Great for my 45 minute drive to work.

Got my 2000 Ford Taurus SE (Flex Fuel) in 2014. 9 years and 45k miles later its not bad. Paid 2k with 97k miles on it. Had a few minor things have had to fix but not much. Coolant was always suspect from the start and was always rusty gummy like. The car ran fine though even though heater stopped working possibly clogged heater core. Not sure, I paid 2k and not that cold where we live so never bothered to fix. A/C still blows as cold as any car including brand new car AC. Tires wear evenly. Leaks a little oil. LED interior lighting was a major upgrade I did for cheap. Overall I rate it 8 of 10. 10 of 10 if not for oil leak and no heater. Got great value for 2000 bucks 9 years ago. Still going.

This was a good car to have. Affordable, comfortable ride, good on gas. Only hiccup was it needed a new oil pan and an AC recharge. Other than that I’d recommend this car.

Absolutely adore this car; I've owned one since '04, and has my heart. Of course, cars and their parts wear out, but with a fix, it's good! Not to mention, the design is gorgeous.

This car got every service it ever needed and was a good car for the first 100,000 miles and then it went to pieces. First tranny went. I figured I had at least another 50,000 miles to get out of it and had rebuilt. A year later the engine blew. Gave it to a charity :(

Great handling. 4 valve engine ran perfect for entire period of ownership. My new 17 Taurus gets better mileage and more power. Still miss my 2000 but love my 17.

This vehicle is failing everyday in everyway you can imagine. This must not fail me its my car that is not update on repairs. Please need HELP

I've driven my 2000 Taurus for almost ten years now, having got it in 2009. It was a junkyard rescue, as it had a blown head gasket and dead transmission. All these components were replaced and I've put almost 130,000 miles on it since then. It's been my daily driver ever since I've had it; from Arkansas, it's taken me to New York once and to Virginia about five times. Also, fuel mileage is very overestimated; on the highway using cruise control, I calculated a minimum of 30 mpg, which is impressive for an old vehicle with a V6 engine. It is extremely well designed and very sturdy. There's a reason these cars were popular with vehicle fleets and still used by some government agencies; you can't kill them with a grenade launcher. They may be very ordinary looking, but if you want a solid, dependable used vehicle at a fair price, look no further. Also, parts are very cheap for repairs.

Great vehicle! Just what I was looking for !Great price, great dependability! Everyone should feel this superiority that I'm feeling whenever I get behind the steering wheel

This car met all my needs. I felt safe in it. My kids were safe in it. It was awesome on gas. Never had any problems with it.
