Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I have not gotten the problem fixed. The paint in the (rain gutters?) in the roof of the truck has cracks from front to back. I bought the truck in may and the dealer states they were not in there when I bought it. The dealer also states that the Ford company will not fix it. They stated that the it is in fact a factory defect but since I am past my 3 year 30,000 mile warranty it is my problem now..”

NHTSA complaint #10070038, filed 2004-01, 30,000 miles

“2000 Ford f-150 4.6l v-8. Blown spark plug. Ford dealer claims that Ford will not approve a a repair and either the head ($3,000) or the motor ($5000) need to be replaced. There is no official TSB (technical service bulletin) on this problem, but unofficially, it seems that Ford is aware of the problem since the dealer put a "special note" on the quote from Ford regarding the unapproved repair work above. From various internet searches, others have had trouble with Ford 4.6, 5.4 or v-10 motors with spark plugs blowing out of aluminum heads.”
