Example complaints

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

“My instrument cluster failed due to the wiring in the dashboard from the factory was chafing on each other and shorted out. I first thought it was just a fuse but they kept blowing. So I brought it to one dealer they said the cluster needed replacement due to a short in it and would cost $600.00 because my warranty ran out in nov. 2007 but the car only has 28k on it, it's a pleasure car. I called Ford care and they said since I have no service record with them there was nothing they could do for me. …”
