“Extend cab with 4 doors. Where the rear seat and seat belts mount to the body it is completely rusted away. The seat and seat belt is loose and will not be secured in a crash. Very little rust on the rest of the cab and the rocker panels are intact. However the seat belts for the rear passengers on both the right and left side are not connected.”
NHTSA complaint #10863111, filed 2016-05, 82,000 miles“In my 2000 F-150 supercab pick-up, which has four doors and seating for six (three in the back seat), lack of rear head restraints, coupled with a very low rear seat back height and the very close proximity of the rear window (glass) to occupants' heads means that serious injury may occur should the vehicle be hit from behind by another vehicle. Occupants' heads should be protected by head restraints from contacting the glass. …”
NHTSA complaint #744851, filed 2001-05“Driver's seat frame twisted. Dealer has replaced frame. Consumer states that new frame does not appear to be aligned properly, it appears to be angled to the left, dealer could not confirm if the seat is properly aligned.”
NHTSA complaint #886080, filed 2001-04“The driver seat is definitely the very worst quality seat I have seen in a vehicle. There is not enough support to keep you from feeling as though you will fall out the door. When driving straight, the lack of support on the outer left side gives a feeling that one is leaning or tilting to the left and your are actually not sitting level. When you turn right, your weight pushes on the soft foam more giving a worse sensation that you are tilting. When exiting the truck, as you press on the seat to get out, you can feel the plastic trim at the seat base through the soft foam. …”
