Example complaints

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

“The seat brackets of my 2007 Ford Mustang are rusting through. Almost from day one, the paint on the brackets peeled off and the rust started shortly after that. I am worried that soon the bracket on the driver's seat will rust through and the vehicle might become uncontrollable. I have tried to address this with Ford but they don't respond to this complaint.”

NHTSA complaint #10405381, filed 2011-06, 35,000 miles

“Takata recall my driver's side has been repaired but I am continually told that the parts have not been received to repair the passenger side. Also, the gears in the electric driver seat are cheaply made of plastic and quit allowing the seat to move forward and back. All motors work fine but the way the seat is made you can't just replace the gears. This stopped working after the dealership worked on something else on the car seat (lumbar air bag)”

NHTSA complaint #11040948, filed 2017-10

“The contact owns a 2007 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, he pushed the latch on the front passenger seat to slide it forward and the latch broke. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where it was repaired. The VIN was unavailable. The failure mileage was 8,812.”
