Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have a 5-month old, 2010 Ford FLEX limited, and I have a complaint about the auto rear hatch not being safe. Specifically, when in automatic mode-closing, the safety reverse feature is not sensitive enough to reverse the door's closing appropriately. The only thing that gets the hatch to bounce back or reverse up is when something like a stationary and hard object (like an adult's shoulder when standing still) is in the way. Literally, when the rear hatch is lowering, you can grab it and try to pull it back, and it does not stop. …”
