the 2012 has a limp-home mode. In case of catastrophic failure the computer will begin to adjust the engine to get you to safety. One thing I like is if your radiator blows up the computer will port cool air into the engine block by shutting down one cylinder and using it as an air compressor.
I adore my '14 Limited, its been one of the best cars I have owned. Great tech, quality interior, very safe, great on gas, lots of power and drives like a Lincoln on the highway. If you looking for one used I highly suggest a 2013+ models as a lot improved. I would really try to consider looking for one that is as loaded as you find, a base Limited at the least. I crossed shopped 4 other full size cars, Avalon, 300, Impala and Charger. The material quality in the interior were no match with the Ford. The ride was so much more balanced, it was to sporty, to harsh or to soft like the others I found. It does it all right.
nice I learned something new, I just got a 2014 Ford Taurus but mines is gray :D they are nice and pretty luxurious to be honest. I make head turn :D im thinking about installing subs in my car
It's actually a 3.6 and it's geared higher for high end power as opposed to low end. The governor actually kicks in at 110 as well. There's a lot of power control in the vehicle. I was told that was a safety thing but don't quote me on that part
Im waiting on a 2013 to come up from fl live in ma. Everything ive seen so far It looks like a very nice car, Only thing I dont like is that it has no AWD and the white interior But other then that I can not wait for it to be shipped up!
was this your car?. my mother has one n i drove it, i really like it. im actually looking at getting one right now. i went to jack demmer Ford here in michigan.
also about the engine. you got the one with no ecoboost in it. the sel ecoboost only has 220hp the one you got is faster with more torque with 288 HP the reason it feels slower then you herd about the ecoboost is because the high end ones with 365 hp are in the sho modals.
It's 315 hp in the limited its a 3.6 v6. I just bought one in June. The reason that it feels slow is because it's American. American made is famous for high end power versus low end. Mine accelerates insanely fast from about 70 to 100.
Great video! My dad actually rented this Taurus from Avis in LA. I was upset because it didn't come with Nav SD card. We are gonna rent from Avis next week and I hope we get the Chrysler 300 or the Taurus! My question for u is did u actually use the navigation SD card?? Next time we rent I will check the trunk! Lol
After this video was created I did use the SD card and it worked perfectly! I asked the representative upon returning the car why they didn't have it inserted. She said they just put gas in them upon arrival and don't worry about anything else.
I got one just like it...I love mine!!.. 2014... I only got 22 thousand miles....I just drive it once a month...I keep it inside the shop...away from the weather...I drive it around the block..that's it...inside still looks brand new...always stays clean...don't drive it in the rain,,or snow..or any bad weather...I keep it out of sun...I drive it only at night...that's it...
lol dude it didn't unlock with your hand cause the key was just a little to far away. the car needs the key to be close to sense the key to know it's you getting in the car. if they just made it so you could unlock the car without the key and have push button start anyone could steal it super fast lol. key not close car won't open.
I've owned a used 2010, new 2012, new 2014, and current 2016. No issues with either one. Oil changes, coolant flushes, brake pads, and oil changes is all I've ever had to do. It's a great, reliable, safe, big ride.
Ford (and other manufactures) started using SD cards in their nav systems for a few years now. Essentially they provide a card with all of the roads and points of interest every year so its easy to update the database. Without the card however, the system doesn't work.
Stone Rinaldi i'm going to when I pay off my 2011. was going to do a traid in with my truck till someone thought there mini van was a hot rod lol. so I had to get a cheaper one. now when it's paid off and I save up some money I can go a traid in plus put cash down as well. this is the best way to work your way up to the nice cars. my first car was a $500 pos chevy prizim that was 0-60 in 27sec lol then I got a bronco 2. then min van then a truck now a 2011 Taurus. trust me. when your car is paid off don't sell it right away. use it for work keep all that extra money that did go on the car and put that money and your car to a nicer car. works really good.
This is the car that i am getting and i am very excited to get it :)
i like the button that turns on the cab lights
My Mom has a 2016 Ford Taurus with that same color we love it

Dylan Maki ford doesn't make a 3.6
Chrysler has the 3.6 Pentastar Ford has the 3.5 Cyclone.
So about a month ago I bought a 2014 Taurus limited, same color, that was at one point a rental. I have been trying to find tells to see if its mine 😂
Getting one tomorrow

+Dylan Maki just no.
Dylan Maki it's a 3.5 v6 ? GM and the Chrysler brand cars use 3.6 & Ford has always had a 3.5
@@dylanmaki3000 you're not a Ford Taurus owner, with that info, dude.
Did they ever eliminate the transmission issues that seem to plague the model?
This model 2010 thru 2019 doesn't have trans issues.

Do you have ADIS??
I didn't know you could get a limited Taurus without the sony system, interesting.
I bet these were special order rental cars and they did the delete.
That's an awesome car we have one we love it
I got one just like it...I love mine!!.. 2014...

This car uses regular fuel or premium?
Regular, unless you have the flex fuel 3.5 engine, Which can use any blend of ethanol and regular.
lol dude it didn't unlock with your hand cause the key was just a little to far away. the car needs the key to be close to sense the key to know it's you getting in the car. if they just made it so you could unlock the car without the key and have push button start anyone could steal it super fast lol. key not close car won't open.
Dads keyfits 1/4 the way inthenstops
2 things to watch out for
Water pump replacement (internal pump) $1,500-2,000 est repair and radio control module $1,000 est. repair
I've owned a used 2010, new 2012, new 2014, and current 2016. No issues with either one. Oil changes, coolant flushes, brake pads, and oil changes is all I've ever had to do.
It's a great, reliable, safe, big ride.
does this have Daylight running lights?
No on the DRL, for 2014
Do you still have your G8?
Hi Dave. I do still have my G8 and the Grand Cherokee. The G8 is parked in the garage for the winter and I'm driving the GC as my daily driver.
Hang on a sec. Can you explain this nav sd card thing for me?
Ford (and other manufactures) started using SD cards in their nav systems for a few years now. Essentially they provide a card with all of the roads and points of interest every year so its easy to update the database. Without the card however, the system doesn't work.
Thanks got'a getting one
