2007 Ford Taurus, 190000mi, automatic acting odd?
Hello! My 2007 Ford Taurus has been fine for the past 2 years. Just today it started having pretty jumpy shifts on my way to work, but it still made it in.
Then on my ride home it was doing it again, and then my car died. Not the battery cause my lights were still on, but I had to put it in park and turn it off and on again to get into a parking lot. Well I checked and I was low on oil, so I filled it up but on my drive home I had 3 more rough shifts and 1 death.
Any idea what might be wrong with it :(?

programming apim issue?
picture uploaded is one thing that i noticed may be wrong in the APIM module configuration page.
this is a bit of a long one but i’ll try to keep it as short as possible. i decided i wanted sync 3 in my 2015 SHO. i bought a sync 3 radio and apim that came from a 2019 fusion and installed it in my taurus. i reprogrammed it using “as built” settings in forscan. but now im experiencing a few issues.
radio will not turn off with car and driver door open. the car is reading that the door is open, but the radio won’t turn off. even when i click the power button it just goes to a very dimly lit backlight black screen.
climate control page does not work with touch screen, however, if i turn the ac on or off from the control panel under the radio, it shows up on the climate page on and off. also live temps are not shown on the page. and nothing is popping up on the screen when i change fan speed.
backup camera is not turning on, but rear sensors are working.
ambient lighting has an option on the radio, but they are off in the car and the option is greyed out on the screen.
if anyone has any tips on what to do, an ABT file i can download and upload in my car. or any information that can point me in the right direction would mean a lot to me. i have plenty of pictures to provide as well.

Thought it was water pump took to shop was thermostat
It wasn’t my water pump causing my car to run hot it was my thermostat. What a relief after I spend $7300 cash for this car. Back to the Uber eats and Amazon flex grind. 🙏🏽

Taurus 2022 Gear Jerky or shudder
I have a 2022 taurus titanium and it has about 60k miles on the odometer. I have recently started to notice that when driving with light foot pedal on the gas the transmission shudders making the whole car feel like going back and forth also this happens only till 20-30 mph. When accelerating it feels fine, nice smooth shifts. I thought it might be because of turbos and all. Kindly help regarding what this could be and is it a easy fix like reprogramming the transmission or something big.

Grinding in reverse
Today I just got my car back from the shop. They replaced the water pump and timing belt and it took about 10 days. Now when I first put it in reverse it rattles pretty bad but only when I first put it in.
The first time it rattled, I put it in park, then back into reverse and it didn't do it. I've had the car back less than a day and it only does it when I initially shift into reverse. Any insight?

2003 Taurus
My 2003 Taurus will randomly pop on the gear light with the exclamation point, so far I haven’t found a rhyme or reason to it… anybody have any experience with the same issue or know what going on? Recently changed all the fluids and filters for the engine and transmission. Tia
Info Update: it does feel like it can’t decided which gear to stay in when cruising for long stretches

For tautus, police interceptor 3.7 engine 2015
First you have problems with the gasoline pumps, then with the catalytics, and the last one, the transmission and the engine, there is what I can do to avoid recovering the car or name the money, apart from selling it in parts to one, I owe it because I asked for a loan to be able to repair it.
