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.
My transmission downshifted from 5th gear to 1st gear in Nov 2018. The transmission then would no longer shift due to the damage it caused. I had the transmission rebuilt by Ford. Soon after the repairs Ford released a safety recall for the exact problem. I took the vehicle in and they performed the recall service. I asked about reimbursement for the prior repairs and was told yes it would be covered because it was caused by the recall. The truck continued to randomly shift to neutral or skip gears. I took it back in. They said it was caused by the rear main seal, this has nothing to do with shifting. The transmission has never leaked. The issues continued on until on February 27th the transmission dropped to 1st gear on the highway (65 mph) nearly causing a major accident and throwing me against the steering wheel. I just contacted Ford recall department and inquired about full reimbursement and to notify them that this happened again. They said they would not reimburse me any $ and ignored my complaint about the transmission downshifting like that again. I am now sitting with a sore back, $4,000 repair cost and a truck that may put my life and any passengers life in danger while in the vehicle.
The seatbelts in this vehicle have constantly gone bad they have been cleaned out and replaced and they're continuing to go bad they don't make full contact they don't click all the way and it's $200 to replace each seat belt every time they go bad and four out of the five have gone bad on more than one occasion alex please stop
The contact owned a 2013 Ford F-150. While driving 50 mph, the contact's vehicle was struck by another vehicle that ran a red light. The contact's vehicle rolled over several times and the passenger side seat belt did not remain fastened. The passenger sustained injuries to the neck and back that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a salvage yard and deemed destroyed. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The failure mileage was 60,000.
