Example complaints

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

“I purchased vehicle october 2019 and asked preowned dealership the next day I purchased about the issue I have: my vehicle has delayed acceleration and jerks its way through gears when I am moving at stop light or backing up from parking space. Also steering gear shakes and asked them if it was an alignment issue but they said nothing was wrong with it.”

NHTSA complaint #11342915, filed 2020-08, 14,000 miles

“Low engine oil pressure light came on and engine clanking noises occurred while I was traveling on the interstate. I immediately pulled the vehicle over to a safe location. Vehicle was towed to local Ford Dealership Service Center. Was told by the service manager that Ford has been having issue with oil pump not sending oil to the engine and that I would likely need a new engine. Due to backlog of service requests, Ford has not inspected my vehicle to verify the specific issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11560254, filed 2023-12

“Received an oil pressure error message. Came on and went off multiple times. Finally came on and stayed on. Car started driving sluggishly and check engine light came on. Before I could find a place to safely pull over, the wrench icon appeared and my car lurched forward twice and then the battery light came on. I was able to put on my flashers and pull off the side of the road right before the car died. It would not even restart. I had to call for a tow and it was taken to a local Ford Dealership. …”

“My vehicle has had a recall on it for more than 6 months now and there is still no remedy. I am nervous to risk driving my car knowing something is recalled and could malfunction at any moment”

NHTSA complaint #11600995, filed 2024-07

“My vehicle is about three years old and with no prior warnings that something may be wrong, I received a “Low Engine Oil Pressure” warning while driving down the highway that caused me to pull the vehicle over. Acceleration was affected and the car was not operating properly and so I received a tow to a shop. The shop called to inform me that it is in need of a total engine repair and would cost me about $8500 for a used engine since Ford does not currently have any new ones available. …”
