Example complaints

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

“I am the owner of a 2002 Ford/mercury Mountaineer I had to have my right front window fixed. I let it down and it would not come back up so I took it to my local body shop and he said this it the 6th one he has had to fix in the last few months. Is there a recall on this part. It cost me over $200.00 to have a gasket/seal put on the window. It was not the motor but a part that attaches to the window.”
