I had a 90 Ford Taurus. At about 80'000 miles, it started shifting hard into 2nd gear enless I kept my foot out of it. Got 156,000 miles out of it and sold it. No other major repairs. Was a great car.
My 1997 Ford Taurus is in the shop today having the transmission rebuilt. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. Last fall it started shifting very hard into 2nd gear. I had the transmission serviced and it got better but didn't go completely away. Earlier this week at a stop sign I pulled out into traffic and the car would only go about 5 mpr. With the pedal to the floor and a semi coming it just made it across a busy street and started picking up speed. I called my mechanic and he checked it out and told me it was the transmission again. I got the phone call a couple of hours ago, they had pulled the transmission and found several 'burned' parts and a broken pump among other things. Next Tuesday I pay my $2000 and get my car back. I say get rid of the car and move on while it still runs well enough to sell it!

I own a 94 taurus that i think is starting to have problems with the kickdown solenoid but its been a great car. I cant say that im pissed that its having problems because over the years i've really kicked the $#!+ out if this car and its held up. I've been able to fix all of the problems that came my way.
