Example complaints

“From june 2018 to june 2019 I have invested over $4000 in primarily the braking sytem of my car. I continue to have issues when after filling my gas tank the car hesitates in starting. I have replaced everything that has to do with the breaking system from brake pads to hcu system to the ABS system. Even the new parts have had to be replaced because they were faulty.”
NHTSA complaint #11228282, filed 2019-06, 82,351 miles“The rear left door door ajar indicator would show that the door was open, even when slammed shut. At first I had to slam the door harder, but after a while even that didn't work. When that didn't work, it became an issue because my interior lights wouldn't go off after leaving the car. I had to break the part to get my lights to go off so I didn't drain my battery overnight.”
NHTSA complaint #11181700, filed 2019-02, 89,000 miles“I was driving slowly down a street at about 20-30 MPH and tried to close my sunroof and the plastic that holds it into the moving track broke off leaving it stuck in the open position. I took it to Ford thinking that since there have been multiple issues with their EDGE cars' roofs, they would be able to repair it. Instead they wanted to charge me $8,000 to repair the whole roof.”
NHTSA complaint #11206514, filed 2019-05, 75,000 miles“When driving down highway 700 I went to put on brakes and it felt like I didn't have any it went all the way to the floor before stopping! Basically the brakes are just barley there. Very dangerous and scary not to mention I had 2 kids with me. This happened before about 9 months ago it was a recall and was fix but now it has happened again. Also my door ajar indicator light keeps staying on.”
NHTSA complaint #11218210, filed 2019-06, 114,000 miles“After entering my vehicle and the door will be completely closed the door ajar sensor will come on and interior lights. Also, as I was riding down the road, out of no where the door ajar sensor comes on and interior lights come on and all the doors unlocked by themselves...soon as I locked them back, they unclocked again on their own.”
