Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“We went on vacation for 15 days and left our vehicle in the driveway. When we came home and drove it the brakes made a horrible noise. I took it back to the Ford dealer where they had been totally replace 2000 miles earlier and found out that the brake shoes had rusted to the rotors and when I drove the car they broke loose and pitted each other. For over $700 Ford redid the brakes. I found out that Ford changed the brake pad design for this vehicle to include iron in them.....therefore this problem will occur with all fords with this design change. …”
