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.
Casual driver. Noticed acceleration and coasting/rolling were sluggish. Mechanic noted brake area temp on front driver's side was over 400 degrees. The brakes on that wheel would not release completely and caused continuous friction producing overheating. (I noticed I am not the only one to submit this brake problem to this board. ) the mechanic replaced the total front brakes and master cylinder system. Cost over $1100 to do this back in 2013. It is now Jan 2021 and I still have less than 50,000 miles on my baby Mustang.
