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 owns a 1999 Ford F250. While driving approximately 40 mph, the vehicle began vibrating. The failure would occur when driving at speeds greater than 40 mph. The failure occurred for approximately two years. While parked, the contact also noticed oil was leaking from the vehicle. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed the rear comb of the transmission was broken. The vehicle was not taken for repairs but an appointment was made. The approximate failure mileage was 87,000.
The second gear has gone out of the transmission. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer. The lights at the bottom of the door were inoperative. The steering wheel was out of alignment.
Transmission vibrates and cuts out when engaging speed, and I have not received any recalls on my vechiel it is a 99 F250 4dr V8. So could you please send me something to have my vehicle repaired and also my air bag sensor is bad, the engine light sensor is also on.
When driving and upon depressing brake pedal to make a gradual stop, transmission suddenly locked up. Transmission hung up in gear and failed to disengage from any gear. Consumer had vehicle towed to a dealer.
While I was exiting my truck, with motor off and transmission in park, the pin that holds it in park failed and allowed the truck to roll backwards. This scoped me up in the door and dragged me over the hillside next to the road. I had to escape from the door before it ran into trees, and in that process dislocated my left elbow and two ribs along with numerous bruises. The truck is at a repair shop to review what happened to its park gear.
While driving about 20 mph vehicle stalled, then noticed a trail of transmission fluid behind vehicle, added transmission fluid to vehicle, and was able to drive home. Could not find where fluid was leaking from, vehicle at dealer at this time. Consumer stated tramsmission had to be rebuilt, mechanic found pieces floating inside, also filter was floting around.
Engine was leaking oil at 8577 and 9830 miles on vehicle. Dealership examined vehicle, and determined there were two leaks. Rear main seal and engine oil pan were leaking on first occurrence. Dealership patched leak without pulling engine. On second occurrence, dealership had to pull engine, and found that oil pan and transmission pan were leaking oil.
Upon stopping at a red light and then pulling out transmission sounded like gravel was in it. The sound went away. Later when the reverse gear was needed, gear did not work. Dealer has been contacted.
This truck has many problems. Strarting with the transmission going out, the front right side of the truck there is a distinctive "clunk" when put into gear; either forward or reverse. Then going interior; the "door ajar" light comes on it thinks that the doors are not shut, but you can slam all 4 doors shut and it still thinks the doors are "ajar" so that will keep the interior light on while driving. The interior light will go out if you get up to about 20 mph, then when you slow down to under 20mph it will come back on. The "warning bell" comes on and stays on even when the truck is shut off. Next the seat belts will some times work and some times not. Either the are hard to pull out or they will not retract. The tailgate cover has warped in not even 1 year after we had it.
When vehicle shifted gears it vibrated for a quick second. Also, when vehicle reached 43mph, it vibrated real hard. Consumer took vehicle to the dealer, and they changed the tires. Vehicle was taken in again, and dealer then admitted that it was a problem and he had no clue.
Due defective brake lines, which dealer replaced twice, steering wheel shakes vigorously. This may cause driver to lose control and could result in a crash. Also problems with the transmission and engine.
Stopped at a traffic light and when light turned green, pressed gas pedal but truck would not move. Waited a few minutes and pressed pedal and truck went. Driving down highway, truck started coasting - engine was running but pressing the gas pedal gave no power. Finally got the truck to Ford service. Left the truck running and in park - the truck jumped into reverse. The truck lost power again while the Ford tech was test driving. They replaced the electronic gas pedal and the transmission. They took the truck on a test drive and noticed the rear end was grinding. They determined the carrier bearings had come apart. They have ordered a new rear end. The windshield washer fluid would not spray - they repaired some wiring to correct that problem. EA04006 has ifs
