Example complaints

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

“Left front axel broke for no reason at all. Did not hit anything. Always kept the car maintained since I bought it new in 2010 and had no major problems until yesterday. Axel broke as I drove slowly on a residential street. Ford repair is baffled why it broke. Could have killed us and somebody else if I had car loaded up with people and on a freeway at 70 MPH. The steering lost control after axel broke.”
