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.
: the contact stated the door locks failed to operate normally using the key fob. The locks must be manually opened or closed. The vehicle was inspected by an independent mechanic who determined the actuator needed to be replaced. The contact made several attempts to purchase a used actuator from local junk yards without success.
When steering wheel is not all the way up the turn signals, hazard lights, and the brake lights do not work. I have taken it to the dealership and they state that there is a clip in the steering column that is broke. This all happened 2 months after I bought the truck and they will not fix it due to there being no warranty. At the same time the keyless entry stopped working as well as the automatic door locks. They stated that this was because the motor in both doors had went out. Seems odd to me that they would both go at the same time.
I bought my Super Duty F-250 in early March of 2000 and my GEM module is failing. I cannot use my door unlock buttons. My driver window fails to go down all the way, and my key fob doesn't work the locks. My complaint is that Ford had a recall on this same module up to the year 1999 my truck was ordered from the factory in late December 1999 or early 2000 and is having the same problems that the trucks up to 1999 are having, but because it's a 2000 Ford will not cover it.
