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 mounts for the driver's seat are about to break off. I heard a loud "pop" while in mid corner, then the seat bean to lean hard. When these mounts completely break, I believe it may cause a serious accident. I know that this is a common problem in Ford Contour, please do something as these seats are not safe. How can Ford expect someone to remain in control of their vehicle if the seat breaks off while they are driving?
