Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have owned my 2005 ford taurus for 15 months. recently, during cold weather, the car has lunged forward ~6" when starting it for the first time in the morning. this has only happened a couple times thus far. this occurs while in park. the wheels do not move, rather, the car 'bucks' forward. if someone were walking in front of the vehicle when this happened, they could be injured. this could also lead to personal property damage if the vehicle was parked near another object [other car, garage door, etc.]. i've heard this has happened to other, older model taurus' as well [probably never resolved]. my dealer was made aware of this and reports no recalls per my vin#. *jb
