Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 1996 ford taurus in 1998(february). in the summer of 1998 i began developing cooling problems. since i purchased the vehicle, i have had problems with rusty radiator water, have had to have the fuel pump replaced twice, and am now told i possibly need a new motor. i am told that there was a recall on the cooling system of these cars in or about 1999, that has since expired. i never received a recall. *ph
