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.
Ford Expedition was travelling at 50-60km/hr while passing an emergency vehicle on a highway. The Expedition was struck from behind by a utility van travelling around 110km/hr. Both front seats slid forward and also reclined on impact. This caused both front passengers to sustain bruising on their calf's due to the seats sliding forward and whiplash from both front seats reclining. Both front seats trapped children in their car seats in the 2nd row form being reclined. No air bags deployed in the accident as well!
Was hit by a vehicle while making a left hand turn on a city street. Tried to stop the car. Breaks would not work and just went to the floor board. Vehicle sped up. Jumped 2 curbs and had to throw the car in park in order to stop. Air bags did not deploy.
The air bag warning light is on which may cause the airbags not to function properly. We have not had an accident to cause the air bag light on the dashboard turn on. We are taking it to the dealership later in the month to find out the exact cause of this malfunction. But the potential of an accident and the air bass failing to deploy is in the back of my mind. Please look into this matter now so it prevents any future families being affected.
