Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“For most of 2025 and now into April 2026, I have been unable to use my car’s electric capabilities. This is due to active recalls for which no permanent repair is available. Temporary fixes have not resolved these issues. Thus, for an extended period of time, a primary feature of my car, a feature for which I purchased this vehicle, has been unavailable to me. …”
NHTSA complaint #11732248, filed 2026-04“My backup camera still turns blue. I have had the recall done to fix the issue but it still happens occasionally. Seems to be just random when it happens and no direct cause when it does happen.”
NHTSA complaint #11636978, filed 2025-01“One day, the bright headlamps stopped working. The light on the dashboard indicating that they are on still works but the lights themselves, do not turn on. Yes, it is available for inspection. There was and has been no warning. It has not been looked at by a dealer or anyone else.”
NHTSA complaint #11741560, filed 2026-06“Back up camera screen turns blue preventing the driver from seeing anything. Was recalled and the fix was applied but problem still exists. Six months ago I Was told by dealer, ford is working on the problem and will be notified when to come back. Called dealership several time since and was told no fix is available at this time.”
NHTSA complaint #11523673, filed 2023-05“This 2021 Lincoln Corsair is equipped with Auto Start/Stop technology. Auto Start/Stop Technology automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a full stop and idles for more than a few seconds. Once the driver puts pressure on the accelerator, then the engine turns back on. It's simple, and some say it can save between 3-5% of gas in stop-and-go traffic. My car while stopped with the engine off, at a red light for example, after approximately 45 seconds, it will re-start itself and lunge forward. It does it every time, when you are stopped over 45 seconds and the engine is off. …”
