Example complaints
Steering: “My car's power steering suddenly developed a fault, showing message on dash stop safely now along with a simultaneous message about servicing advancetrac. Steering became very difficult. Steering still worked, but car became very hard to turn (I am not a small man, and it was still difficult). I was able to pull to the side of the road (I was on a large city street traveling about 45 MPH) and stop with some difficulty. Power steering seems to have completely failed spontaneously.”
NHTSA complaint #11130969, filed 2018-09, 79,500 milesTransmission and drivetrain: “I took my 2014 Ford Taurus Police Interceptor to boggus Ford in harlingen, tx. For a recall on a fuel pump sensor which the dealer said would cost nothing to replace. I had to buy the part and install it to get the vehicle there. Dumb, I know, but it was cheaper than a tow truck and I wanted it corrected by the dealer for safety purposes. During the drive there I noticed a check engine light on so I reported it. I also reported to them that the vehicle hesitates, or jerks, when driving at low to moderate speeds. …”
