About These NHTSA Complaints:
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.
Passenger side seatbelt retractor does not work properly if occupant is leaning forward, as in a slow braking situation followed by harder braking. I've saved my face dozens of times from hitting the dashboard, even after the original seatbelt retractor was replaced. The 2nd one provides protection only in strictly hard braking situations, not slow-then-hard braking.
The front driver side seat belt tensioner failed. It is stuck in tension mode, it will not retract nor expand. There is a recall on F150S built January 22nd 2015 to March 17th 2015 supercrew models but mine is built in June of 2015 with the same problem. Dealer recognized the issue and I'm bringing it to the dealer for repair today June 15th, 2016. This should be an fyi that other production might be affected and not just the models listed in the original recall. I was backing up the truck when the seat belt tightened up and then stayed that way. It won't expand nor retract. Serious safety issue. I will take a video of it with my phone should you want that evidence.
The vehicle is a 2015 Ford F-150 extended cab. My vehicle has not been involved in an incident, but there is a defect in the design of the seatbelt/door latches. Design of the rear doors and the latches traps the rear seat passenger in the event of the incapacitation of the front seat passenger. The rear door cannot be opened unless the front door is opened first. There is no way for a rear seat passenger to be able to open the front door in the case of an accident, and there is no alternative method of egress for rear seat passengers. This is a design defect affecting all 2015 F-150 crew cab pickups. So far there I have not had an accident, but the problem should be addressed by Ford before there are tragic results from the design error.
The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the seat belt on the rear driver side failed to unlatch. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and repaired, but the details of the repairs were unknown. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 3,700....updated 10-13-15
