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.
I own a 1995 Ford F-150 4X4. I bought the truck in December of 1998, and it had approximately 87,000 miles on it. I started having trouble with the cruise control shortly after I bought the truck, but I also had trouble with the speedometer. I thought that the cruise control was caused by the speedometer problem. I also had trouble with the automatic transmission, which I contributed to the speedometer fluctuation. Since then, I have had the rearend rebuilt, and have replaced the transmission. I still experience problems with the transmission, and the cruise control. I have never had a fire in the engine compartment, but I am wondering if the recent information about a short in the cruise control could be causing the trouble. All work has been done by a reputable Ford garage, and they have not been able to find the reason for the continued problems.
