The 1995 Ford Taurus has 3 recalls, the most serious being a missing or improperly installed retainer clip that can allow the brake push rod to separate from the pedal arm, leaving the driver with no braking ability.
The third recall applies only to flex-fuel models: certain vehicles were built with incorrect fuel vapor valves inside the fuel tank that can allow liquid fuel to flow into the vapor canister, causing evaporative emissions to exceed regulatory limits.
