Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The airbag light indicator is on. Some time if you shutoff the engine it will reset but sometimes wont reset. I took it to Ford dealership then called the extended warranty company and they said its not covered. This is a safety issue, isn't it a responsibility for the manufacturer?”
