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.

This is apparently a widespread problem on 1996 and newer crown vics, T-birds, mustangs and Lincoln. Ford knows there is a design problem, but refuses to bear the cost. Plenty of complaint info can be found on the web - see www.thecomplaintstation.com a Ford recall is in effect for 96-98 crown vic taxis made in their St. Thomas plant. Very frustrating - my failure happened on the interstate at 75+ mph with no warning. Luckily I could pull off the highway. Going to cost $600+ to repair. Ford doesn't seem to care. Our city garage has replaced at least 5 failed manifolds on cv police cruisers with redesigned manifolds (Ford must know there is an issue here to redesign the manifolds). Mine is not an isolated incident - look at your complaint database and the website I referenced. Please do something!!!no safety defec tlisted.
