Example complaints

“I noticed on the Ford pass app that there was a warranty extension for the apim on the sync system. They (Ford) explained to me that the notification was sent to a previous owner and not me (I have owned the car since 2016). They now say this extension is expired and the cost would have to be my responsibility.”
NHTSA complaint #11391097, filed 2021-02, 115,000 miles“My vehicle was stationary in a parking lot of a restaurant. I was in the vehicle trying to open right rear passenger door for one occupant to enter vehicle (as they were holding food in both of their hands) and the interior door latch came loose. Now the interior door latch is loose and can be opened by a very light pull on knob. Spring seem to be out of place.”
NHTSA complaint #11058165, filed 2018-01, 38,817 miles“Radio would not play in 12/2018 but then it was ok until this year when it started causing the following issues in 11/2019. The my Ford touch sync is causing an extremely loud squealing noise when the car is started, or when the radio is on while driving which is so loud it could cause you to wreck. Radio will not play at all when the radio is on. Most of the time the noise will go away if the radio or car is turned off. Ford had a recall but I never was notified by Ford. …”
NHTSA complaint #11280402, filed 2019-11, 60,000 miles“I updated the sync software system, and the 911 assist automatic crash notification feature, was no longer included like it had been from the day of purchase. I feel strongly that this is an important safety feature, and should not be removed in the course of ownership of the vehicle. There was no indication in the software update features notes that this acn 911 assist system would be removed prior to upgrade. Ford customer service confirmed sync 2 mft version v3.10 does not include 911 assist. It was a feature of my car from the date of manufacture up until this software upgrade. …”
NHTSA complaint #11280450, filed 2019-11, 97,280 miles“My 2013 Ford Taurus limited started having problems. The wrench light comes on at frequent occasions, gas pedal would not work, vehicle shacks very bad. No choice but let the vehicle coast to the side of the road, turn off the engine and restart the vehicle. Vehicle will go back to normal driving condition. This problem has happened several times. I spoke with Ford customer service representative and only suggestion he gave me is to when this problem happens again and vehicle stalled ' let the vehicle keep running and have it towed to the Ford dealer. …”
