“Was pulling out onto the highway and road was clear when checked then a car came speeding down the highway without lights and I wasn't able to get out of the way in time and that car swerved in the same direction I was going and hit my front driver side of my car...my car is supposedly equipped with front and side airbags but with the impact, as bad as it was, did not deploy either sets of airbags. The impact caused me to hit my head on the window and end up with a concussion. My car is only a 2007. Faulty airbags?!”
NHTSA complaint #10588243, filed 2014-05, 80,000 miles“Air bag light keeps coming on and off while driving. Dealer can only check if it is on at time brought in no luck yet but why is it faulty. Ford will not cover to look at so frustrated laws need to change on airbags and warranties. Im told it is only covered in the first 36000 miles anyway.”
NHTSA complaint #10671587, filed 2015-01, 86,500 miles“The first occurrence was the transmission slipping on acceleration and stopping or going up hill. Its been to our Ford dealer where we purchased it and at first they felt it and said they fixed it but now everytime I take it in for that or the AC blower going off and on they say they don't feel or see anything it gotten ridiculous. In the freeway I-10 me and my son were trying to accelerate on and almost got hit by a semi truck the vehicle would not go fast enough. I wont bother with the dealership here in town they don't care. …”
