Example complaints

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

“I pulled straight into my garage, put the car in park, took my foot off of the brake pedal, and the car drove forward. If there wasn't a pole in between the car and the garage wall, it would have gone through the wall.”

NHTSA complaint #11307863, filed 2020-02, 61,888 miles

“Car is equipped with auto lock that cannot be disabled. This poses a serious safety issue. I am a senior citizen and if something medical should happen to me while driving, I want to be sure the doors are unlocked when help arrives. If I forget to unlock the doors after the auto lock locks them, I could be in trouble. Ford says the auto lock feature is a regional feature, but some fusion on my dealers lot have auto lock disable, others do not. If it is a regional feature, Ford is selling models outside the region. …”

“I just bought a 2017 Ford fusion. While driving on a california freeway a rock hit my front windshield at the top right corner which caused a long stress crack across the window. I contacted the dealer and they tell me they won't cover it. I'm insured. That's not the issue. I wonder if this has been reported by anyone else who owns a Ford?. My toyota has been hit many times and harder than what this rock did but it has never shown a fracture like this. Please advise. I can also send pics. A glass repair company looked at it and also told me that it should not have happened.”

“Driving 70mph on highway when car shut down. No power and no brakes. Was able to get onto shoulder and car automatically went from d into p on its own once it came to complete stop. Car restarted and was able to finish trip with no other problems. Very scary and dangerous.”
