Example complaints

“While driving at approx 35-40 MPH, car suddenly lost power, the yellow wrench light lit up and I was unable to accelerate nor maintain speed. I barely managed to get to side of road due to heavy traffic; the engine was running very rough and wouldn't smooth out. I turned the engine off, waited a minute before restarting, the wrench light went off and engine ran normally for the next few days. However, within the week, the same thing happened again.”
NHTSA complaint #11183111, filed 2019-02, 52,500 miles“My car has completely shut off while driving 70 MPH on the highway!! A wrench icon lights up on the dash board. I can barely coast to the side of the road before car comes to a complete stop. I was sooo afraid of being killed! The mechanic checked and says there is nothing wrong with my car. It has happened 4 more times. The car starts up after I can put it in park and drives like nothing happened until the next incident. Who will have to die before Ford finds the problem?”
NHTSA complaint #11360191, filed 2020-09, 35,500 miles“Driving my vehicle in traffic and it displayed a wrench symbol and start shaking lost power, had to drift to the side of the road in traffic. I had it towed to the dealer same day after 3 hours of being on side of the road they said it was the oil cap had came off, but you could not go but 20 MPH. Would like to know whys hasn't anyone issued an recall on this year model. To cover the cost of this issue, could have lost my life. Please consider issuing a full recall.”

It then at the same moment slowed down from 50 to 0 within about 50 feet and completely lost power steering almost causing a fatal crash with a child in the car. The vehicle is back at the dealership where it was purchased at and has been evaluated for malfunctions. Although the dealership service has not said anything about what happen or what the problem was and I feel extremely uncomfortable even going somewhere with my family knowing this has happen once. …”
