2014 Ford Taurus Check Engine Light Codes
In Deland, FL, at Coggin Deland Ford we see recurring check engine light codes on the 2014 Ford Taurus that most drivers can recognize: P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim/system lean), P0300–P0306 (misfires), and P0130–P0167 (oxygen sensor circuits). Ignoring these codes can escalate costs quickly — a failing O2 sensor left unchecked can reduce fuel economy and damage the catalytic converter, turning a modest $200 sensor replacement into a $1,000+ converter job. A misfire may start as an inexpensive ignition coil or spark plug replacement but can lead to engine damage if delayed. At Coggin Deland Ford we combine fast OEM diagnostics with transparent pricing and guided repair plans so you understand immediate costs and long-term savings. Our certified technicians, factory tools, and genuine Ford parts deliver reliable outcomes and protect your vehicle’s resale value. To minimize disruption and expense, schedule service and ask about current service specials and service financing options.
