Example complaints

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

“2002 Mercury Villager has vibration in steering wheel at speeds above 10mph. Dealer has tried 3 times to fix and even replaced 2 of the 4 tires. Still the vibration. Repair shop other than the dealer suggested switching brands of tires because after they aligned the front end they rotated the tires to try to isolate the vibration problem only to find that the rotation nullified the alignment. Hard for me to believe that with all the villagers manufactured I'm the only one with this problem.”

NHTSA complaint #10000294, filed 2002-12

“Problems with vibration in rear and right front of vehicle. There was a vibration in the rear and the right front. The tires were replaced three times. The vibration remained which also caused the seats to vibrate.”
