This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was stopped in traffic and was rear ended by a Ford F-150 going 20-40 mph estimated. Both my son and I were hurled backwards because the seats collapsed backwards. We both sustained injuries to our necks and backs. I believe that if we were not rear ended or the seats wouldn't have collapsed we would have not received any injuries. I believe these seats have a potential of being dangerous and the company needs to do something about it right away before some else gets injured.
Started from stop and the back of the driver seat flipped backwards. I was holding on the steering wheel and as I fell back my foot came off the gas pedal and the bottom of the seat slid forward. I was able to get up in time to hit brake and avoid hitting car in front. I did not sustain injury. Seat is now broken. Back will not stay up and bottom will not lock in place. Cannot drive the truck safely.
When making a left or right turn, the steering wheel gives and causes temporary steering loss. Ts the vehicle also sustained the following failures, the PCV valve malfunctioned causing the #2 and #3 heat shields in the transmission to crack. This malfunction was repaired and now the 4 low gear is inoperable. Also, the fuel pump, oxygen sensor, air conditioner compressor and pump malfunctioned. Noticeably after purchase, the driver side seat gives when braking.
While sitting at a traffic light consumer was rear ended at about 50 mph and seat belts did not tighten up, and the seat itself collapsed. Contacted dealer.
