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.
There are no warning indicators or messages. The power mirrors will randomly start adjusting or switching into a position where they start clicking because they're too far over. Even when you try to turn the mirror button off, or close the mirrors and reopen them, the mirror will continue to move. This problem has been continuous for over a year with no problems identified otherwise. This is a major safety concern as the mirrors are required to navigate and see passing traffic or obstacles.

The alarm goes off if you lock the vehicle when you are in it with the key. For example, if you are waiting for someone and you lock the door. This causes the alarm to go off, thus drawing attention to you in the vehicle.this leaves you in a very vulnerable position. You are in a very expensive vehicle with the doors unlocked and/or the alarm going off. I spoke to Ford and they are refusing to fix it.
