Example complaints

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

“The spot welds holding the driver side front door check strap (the thing that keeps the door from opening too far) have failed on a 3 year old Mustang Mach E GT (2023 model year) with 45,000 miles on it and no corrosion on the door. You are more than welcome to look at the failure or I can send you pictures. The safety issue is that this is the only thing keeping the door from opening too far and damaging the hinges that could prevent the door from closing. I don't want this failure to be reproduced as my other doors seem okay. …”

NHTSA complaint #11771875, filed 2026-10

“Driver's door actuator/plunger jammed in the extended position and would not allow the door to be closed. Could not close the door to drive the car. Vehicle has not been inspected yet. Found a temporary solution by searching online, which said to push hard on the door to close it. This worked to get the door closed but likely will not prevent the problem from reoccurring.”

“While driving on the highway at speed, the front undercarriage cover of the Ford Mach-E came loose, started vibrating violently, then started dragging on the highway. Thankfully the driver was able to pull over safely. The incident could have caused life-threatening injury to the driver and other vehicles has the part come totally lose, come under a tire, or started hitting the battery system that sits just behind the car. …”

“The contact owns a 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E. While the contact's husband was driving at approximately 70 MPH, the front undercarriage cover became loosened, and the contact's husband felt a vibration coming from the lower front passenger's side of the vehicle. The vibration increased and the vehicle was pulled into a parking lot, where it was observed that the cover was dragging on the ground. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,500.”

NHTSA complaint #11584481, filed 2024-04, 3,500 miles

“During rapid deceleration from ~35mph to <5mph the contents of the frunk (front trunk) shifted and was able to strike the emergency release button within the frunk causing the hood to open while the vehicle was in motion. At the time the button was pressed various alarms showed on the screen to alert the driver to pull over which could not be done safely based on the current road conditions. The design of the emergency release button is deficient in preventing inadvertent opening of the frunk while the vehicle is in motion. …”
