Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“This part has a safety recall (NHTSA# 97v204 or Ford recall # 97s83). However, it only includes vehicles manufactured after 1/3/92. Since my vehicle was manufactured in october, 1991 (3 months earlier) it was not covered by the recall. I have already paid for the repair of leaking fluid, but I believe I should be reimbursed and the total fix should be installed at Ford's expense to prevent additional failures and/or cause fires.”
NHTSA complaint #702396, filed 1999-01“While driving could smell burning, and when stopped took vehicle to a Ford dealer. Dealer found out that fuel pump had melted, and connectors had burned and smoked, just like recall 99 v 028.”
