    the wheels and the brake problems could be caused by the wheel bearings. are the wheels with the brake problem on the front? did you purchase it from a main ford garage?

I would get a hold of someone in Ford customer service because you should have a 3years or 36,000mile warrenty on this car and you should not be having all the problems you are having I am a Ford man and I have had 6 taurus myself and never had any of the problems you are having and mine have all been bought used with previous owners. this is something I would like for you do for me and let me know open the driverside door and look at the build date and if it is somewhere around a holiday this maybe your problem cause at that time everyone is thinking about celebrating and not thinking about the quality of their work.

Where on a 2008 Ford Taurus SEL would I find the tire wheel nut key?

Usually is on a cable on the factory lug wrench in the trunk.

2006 escape AWD, replace front hub bearing

Rather than just the bearing, I suggest a new half shaft as the bearings and ABS tone wheel are already assembled. These Escapes are notorious for cracking the tone wheel setting off a code and then disabling the AWD system. So for a very few dollars more than it would take to disassemble the shaft , install bearings and tone wheel just get a new one.

Recently purchased the 2008 Ford taurus X. I

Take it to another dealer and see if they can figure it out for you. Obviously that dealership is full of idiots that don't have the time for your concerns. I wish I could help you out but, explaining a thumping noise is hard to do if your not there to actually hear it for yourself. I wish you luck and hope it is still under factory warranty.

97 ford taurus: Cylinder 2 misfire

Assuming the plugs and wires have been changed. I would look at the bottom of the coil pack. They tend to crack and short out.

Or if it's got coil packs they will also crack and short out.
