Example complaints

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

“My 2001 Ford Windstar has broken through 2 rear axles! Also the interior lights blink on and off as I am driving and sometimes come on and stay on and while turned off will sometimes drain the battery and the headlights and hazard lights will blink on and off and the horn will beep. Also at times my power windows will not function.”
