Buying a used 2019 Ford Taurus? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2019 Taurus is the lightest record in this group: two recalls, both lower severity — door pillar trim that can fall off and a rearview camera image that may fail. Owners filed only 15 unverified NHTSA complaints, the largest share (6) under back-over prevention, which lines up with the camera recall, plus scattered reports on lane departure and engine cooling. One crash and one injury appear in that small sample.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Test the rearview camera at cold start, in reverse, and after a short drive.
- Ask whether the camera recall repair was already performed and get the repair order.
- Inspect the door pillar trim for loose, lifting, or previously reattached panels.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
