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.
2001 Ford F-150. A weld in my drivers seat snapped and a cable has come through the seat. I called my local dealer and they said it was considered " trim " and not covered by my warranty. I called Ford directly and was told that they stand by my dealers decision. I don't understand how this can be considered trim and since I can no longer sit all the way in my seat I don't know how this can be considered safe. When I asked what I should do until my arbitration papers come, I was told to either not drive my truck or be very careful. ( no kidding )
The consumer's states that the seat(s) padding, cause discomfort. He states that body parts, especially those that help operate the vehicle will go knumb, and it's hard to engage the brakes. The consumer states that he mentionedthis to the dealer when he first purchasedthe vehicle, and was told that the seats have to be broken in. Scc
The seats only have 3/4" hard padding and your legs, butt go numb to the extent that it makes it hard to get to the brake peddle cause your legs go to sleep
