Example complaints

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

“Brakes are faulty on ford 500 and Mercury Montego. They disintegrate early with only 10,000-12,000 miles on them. This causes multiple replacements, and is dangerous when they are okay one day, and gone the next after ford dealers cleared them at a check-up just a few miles earlier.”
