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.
Failed head gasket in 1997 covered by Ford. Both head gaskets failed this month, after adding 50000 miles, and Ford will not discuss repairs. 3.8 L engines in some other models are covered by an extended warranty because Ford has recognized a defect in the gaskets but will not consider mine. This is the second failure in only 3 years, 50000 miles.
